2. Explain the relationship between financial statements and why it is useful for
managers to understand all three.
The statement of earnings and the statement of retained earnings provide basic information
about the situation of the organization at a given time. While the first shows evidence about
inventory, revenue, expenses, taxes, and a situation of profit or loss, the second brings
demonstrations of the amount the company has, after detecting the profit or loss and future
dividends. That sum will be a reserve to absorb future losses, in any case it’s needed.
The balance sheet lists all assets, liabilities, and current and future expenses, being an essential
compass to know about the financial health of the organization on a specific date of the year.
Thus, we can affirm the documents are essential as they allow managers to have a broad and
clear view of values, making it much easier to identify whether the company is generating
profits or not, whether it is a good time to invest, or if it is more prudent to retain expenses.
All three also allow not only managers, but all stakeholders in the company, directors, and
shareholders, to have a transparent view of the company's performance. With that data
available, it is possible to understand the performance and maybe suggest a change of paths,
always aiming the company's survival.
3. Perform a "current ratio" analysis for the company and explain the company's
liquidity position.
The current ratio is a liquidity indicator, which purpose is to verify the possibility of a company
facing financial commitments in the short term. To get the current ratio, one must divide the
company’s current assets by current liabilities.
That way, it is possible to analyze the company's ability to convert its assets into financial
resources to honor possible debts or during a period of crisis. It is a useful tool for company
directors and investors.
To find the Home Restoration Outlet Ltd’s current ratio, we must verify the data below:
 Current Assets: $ 526,000
 Current Liabilities: $ 145,000
 Current Ratio: 526 / 145 = 3.627
In the case of the Home Restoration Outlet Ltd, we can see that the ratio is greater than 1.00.
That value shows that the company has enough liquidity to honor its current debts and is in a
good situation in any case of financial problems shortly.
On the other hand, a ratio much greater than one (in this case, 3,627) shows that the Home
Restoration Outlet Ltd has a very high value of assets and this may indicate not efficient
management of these resources.
Ideally, the value of the current assets should be reduced in order and promote investments in
the company. Thus, the current ratio will be closer to 1, which would be the most suitable for
this type of organization.
