Objective: 5-1 Use sales and gross margin to evaluate a company

Answers: 12) A 13) C 14) B

15) Define gross margin and operating income. Explain how they are used in evaluating a company.

Answer: Gross margin is the excess of sales revenue over the cost of the goods sold. It helps measure a business’s success. A sufficiently high gross margin is vital to success. Gross margin must be high enough to cover the operating expenses of the firm in order to result in operating income for the period. Operating income is gross margin minus operating expenses plus any other operating revenues. There must be sufficient operating income to cover other expenses of the period to end up with a net income instead of a net loss.

Other income and expenses:

Interest revenue $3,000

Interest expense 7,000 (4,000)

Net income $168,000

Ratios

Gross margin percentage = ($257,000/$427,000) = 60%

Inventor turnover = {$170,000/($35,000 + $80,000)/2] = 2.96 times

Increasing inventory turnover increases cash flow, reduces the risk of obsolescence, reduces the need for shelf space and warehousing, reduces the need for trade credit.

Calculate the following for Milita Merchandising:

Net sales revenue $__________

Net purchases $__________

Cost of goods available for sale $__________

Cost of goods sold $__________

Gross margin $__________

Operating income $__________

Net income $__________

Answer: Net sales revenue

($470,000 – $40,000 – $27,000) = $403,000

Net purchases

($330,000 – $31,000 – $49,000) = $250,000

Cost of goods available for sale

($58,000 + $250,000 + $17,000) = $325,000

Cost of goods sold

($325,000 – $65,000) = $260,000

Gross margin

($403,000 – $260,000) = $143,000

Operating income

($143,000 – $45,000 – $24,000 – $16,000 – $14,000 – $10,000) = $34,000

Income Statement

For the Period Ending December 31, 2013

Sales $480,000

Returns & allowances 35,000

Discounts 18,000

Net sales $427,000

Cost of goods sold:

Beg. inventory $35,000

Net purchases (240-35-10) 195,000

Freight-in 20,000

Available $250,000

End. inventory 80,000

Cost of goods sold 170,000

Gross margin $257,000

Operating expenses 85,000

Operating income $172,000

Other income and expenses:

Interest revenue $3,000

Interest expense 7,000 (4,000)

Net income $168,000

Ratios

Gross margin percentage = ($257,000/$427,000) = 60%

Inventor turnover = {$170,000/($35,000 + $80,000)/2] = 2.96 times

Increasing inventory turnover increases cash flow, reduces the risk of obsolescence, reduces the need for shelf space and warehousing, reduces the need for trade credit.

Skill: Application

Objective: 5-A4 Prepare a merchandiser’s financial statements under the periodic inventory system

Objective 5-B1

1) Describe the difference between a perpetual inventory system and a periodic inventory system.

Answer: The perpetual inventory system is used by businesses that sell expensive products or that have fairly sophisticated computer systems. This system keeps track of the inventory as it is both bought and sold, constantly updating the inventory account to current levels. This system offers management more control over inventory but requires a tremendous amount of record keeping. The sale of inventory requires not just one but two entries to record the transaction. One entry to record the sales price in the revenue account and another to record the cost in the cost of goods sold account.

The periodic inventory system is used by businesses that sell relatively inexpensive goods without the aid of sophisticated computers. This system does not keep track of the daily buying and selling of merchandise at cost. The only way to determine the cost of goods sold is to take a physical count of the merchandise on hand and to assume that if it is not on hand, it has been sold. This system does not offer as much control over inventory, but is much easier to account for on a daily basis.
