Problem 17.4: Consider the following financial statements from BestCare HMO, a not for profit managed care plan: A. Perform a Du Pont analysis on BestCare. Assume that the industry average ratios are as follows: Total Margin 3.8% Total Asset Turnover 2.1 Equity Multiplier 3.2 Return on Equity (ROE) 25.5%
Answer: The Du Pont analysis would be done with the following formula. ROE = Profit Margin* Total Asset Turnover* Equity Multiplier Net Income/Total Equity = Net Income/Total Revenue * Total Revenue/Total Assets* Total Assets/ Total Equity (1218/28613)= 4.2% (28613/9869)= 2.89 (9869/2118) = 4.85 4.2% * 2.89% * 4.85=.575 B. Calculate and interpret the following ratios for BestCare:
Return on assets (ROA) 8.0% Current Ratio 1.3 Days cash on hand 41 days Average collection period 7 days Debt ratio 69% Debt-to-equity ratio 2.2 Times interest earned (TIE) ratio 2.8 Fixed asset turnover ratio 5.2
Answer: Return on Assets (ROA) 1218/9869 = 12.3% Current Ratio 3947/3456 = 1.14 Days Cash on Hand 2337(27395/365) = 36.46 Debt to Equity 4295/2118 = 2.03 Times Interest Earned (TIE) Ratio 2118/385 = 5.5 Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio 28613/5924 = 4.83 Average Collection Period 821 (28613/365) =6.38
