An investor would be pleased with 2014 in comparison with 2013. Net sales and net income are both up significantly
from 2013. Cost of goods sold and selling and general expenses — the two largest expenses — consumed smaller
percentages of total revenues in 2014, and net income represents a higher percentage of revenues. Overall, profits are
rising.

The stock’s attractiveness increased during 2013, as shown by the increases in the price/earnings ratio and in book
value per share. The dividend yield decreased, but that would be important only to investors who want dividends.
Overall, the common stock looks more attractive than it did a year ago.

(20-30 min.) E14-31B
a.
Inventory turnover:
$5,400
=
3.0
$1,800
Jannus sells its inventory 3 times per year. This seems low. A comparison to industry standards would be
necessary to reach a better conclusion.
b.
Days’ sales in
receivables:
$2,300
=
57.50
$14,600 / 365
It takes Jannus 57.5 days to collect its average receivables. This time period is long and may indicate the
company is having trouble collecting from customers. A possible solution might be creating a tougher credit
policy to ensure timely collections from customers.
c.
Acid-test ratio:
$3,000 + $0 + $2,400
=
0.54
$10,000
Jannus can pay off half of its current liabilities with its most liquid assets. Due to long receivables collection
time, the receivables may not be as liquid as cash and equivalents. This may be a cause of concern for
management.
d.
Times-interest-earned
$4,700
=
23.5
$200
Jannus’ income from operations can cover its interest expense 23.5 times. There should not be a problem
servicing its debt according to this ratio.
e.
Return on stockholders’ equity
$2,300 - $0
$11,500
=
0.20
The company’s return on stockholders equity is 20%, which is a strong return.
f.
Earnings per share
of common stock:
$2,300 - $0
=
$0.92
2,500
Jannus generates earnings of $0.92 per share of common stock.
g.
Price/earnings ratio:
$34.50
=
37.5
$0.92
According to this ratio, the market price of one share of stock is 37.5 times the earnings per one share of
stock. A comparison to industry standards is needed to determine if this stock is overpriced or underpriced
compared to the industry.
