3-37. Solution:
Jones and Smith Comparison
One way of analyzing the situation for each company is to compare the respective ratios for
each. Examining those ratios which would be most important to a supplier or short-term lender
and a stockholder.
Jones Corp. Smith Corp.
Profit margin 7.4% 5.25%
Return on assets (investments) 18.5% 12.00%
3-37. (Continued)
a. Since suppliers and short-term lenders are most concerned with liquidity ratios, Smith
Corporation would get the nod as having the best ratios in this category. One could argue,
b. Stockholders are most concerned with profitability. In this category, Jones has much better
ratios than Smith. Smith does have a higher return on equity than Jones, but this is due to its
Smith and its lower liquidity ratios could reflect better short-term asset management. This point
was covered in part a.
