Where Capital Employed = Share Capital + Reserves and Surplus
+ 13% Debentures
= Rs. 1,20,000 + Rs. 35,000 + Rs. 80,000 = Rs. 2,35,000.

Where Current Assets = Inventories + Debtors + Cash at Bank
+ Prepaid Expenses
= Rs. 65,000 + Rs. 40,000 + Rs. 35,000 + Rs. 5,000 = Rs. 1,45,000
Current Liabilities = Sundry Creditors + Provision for Taxation
= Rs. 50,000 + Rs. 15,000 = Rs. 65,000.

assets turnover ratio is 2 times, and its equity/total assets ratio
is 40%. What would be the company's rate of return on equity? (June

(b) If the net profit margin of the above firm is 25 percent,
and the ROI is 10 percent, what would be the total assets turnover
ratio ? (June 01)
