1 Questions Assume that two companies in the same industry have equal earnings. Why might these companies have 13 3 different price-earnings ratios? If a company has a price-earnings ratio of 20 and reports earnings per share for the current year of $4, at what price would you expect to find the stock selling on the market? 13 4 Would you expect a company in a rapidly growing technological industry to have a high or low dividend payout ratio? 13 5 What is meant by the dividend yield on a common stock investment? 13 6 What is meant by the term financial leverage? 13 7 The president of a plastics company was quoted in a business journal as stating, "We haven't had a dollar of interest-paying debt in over 10 years. Not many companies can say that." As a stockholder in this company, how would you feel about its policy of not taking on debt? 13 8 If a stock's market value exceeds its book value, then the stock is overpriced. Do you agree? Explain A company seeking a line of credit at a bank was turned down. Among other things, the bank stated that the company's 2 to 1 current ratio was not adequate. Give reasons why a 2 to 1 current ratio might not be adequate.

PROBLEM 13 11A Common-Size Statements and Financial Ratios for Creditors [LO1, LO3, LO4] Modern Building Supply sells various building materials to retail outlets. The company has just approached Linden State Bank requesting a $300,000 loan to strengthen the Cash account and to pay certain pressing short-term obligations. The company's financial statements for the most recent two years follow:
8 During the past year, the company has expanded the number of lines that it carries in order to stimulate sales and increase profits. It has also moved aggressively to acquire new customers. Sales terms are 2/10, n/30. All sales are on account. Assume that the following ratios are typical of companies in the building supply industry: 3. Required: 1. Linden State Bank is uncertain whether the loan should be made. To assist it in making a decision, you have been asked to compute the following amounts and ratios for both this year and last year: a. Working capital. b. Current ratio. c. Acid-test ratio. d. Average collection period. (The accounts receivable at the beginning of last year totaled $350,000.) e. Average sale period.

You decide first to assess the well-being of the common stockholders. For both this year and last year, compute the following: a. The earnings per share. b. The dividend yield ratio for common stock. The company's common stock is currently selling for $45 per share; last year it sold for $36 per share. c. The dividend payout ratio for common stock. d. The price-earnings ratio. How do investors regard Modern Building Supply as compared to other companies in the industry? Explain. e. The book value per share of common stock. Does the difference between market value and book value suggest that the stock at its current price is too high? Explain. 2. You decide next to assess the company's rate of return. Compute the following for both this year and last year: a. The return on total assets. (Total assets at the beginning of last year were $2,700,000.) b. The return on common stockholders' equity. (Stockholders' equity at the beginning of last year was $1,786,000.) c. Is the company's financial leverage positive or negative? Explain. 3.
