Revenue. Revenue includes net sales, cost of goods sold, and gross profit. Gross profit continues to grow at 30.4% with .23%/ $4,900 from year 12 to 13, and .93%/ $19,600 from year 13 to 14. Net sales also showed the same growth at 100%. The company expects continued growth over the next three years and according to the trend analysis, has the ability to do so. This demonstrates the company’s ability to keep overhead under control and maintain constant margin in relation to sales, consistent year after year. The expenses are variable in relation to the sales. Higher gross sales leads to higher operating income available to service debt in the form of interest payments.…
Microline’s profits increased significantly from 2010 to 2011 with the net income of 2011 being over 3 times the amount of 2010. The return on equity also increased, with a 4% ROE in 2010 to 14% in 2011. Their profits are also growing faster than there assets with an increase on their return on assets of 4% between 2010 and 2011. The profit margin rose from 2% in 2010 to 5% in 2011. Sales rose from $7500 between 2010 and 2011, however, this does not account for the substantial increase in their net income. While their sales have increased, their profits have increased at a faster rate. The significant increase in their net income is largely accounted for by gains on sales of land, foreign exchange, income from affiliates and short term equity investments. Combined these account for an increase of $4000 on the income statement between 2010 and 2011. Another point of interest is the large increase in administrative expenses which increased by $5000 dollars from 2010 to 2011. The company did show an increase in sales, however, the amount of the increase brings into question what Microline is writing off as administrative expenses as there is no mention of it in the footnotes. This could be a cause for concern where the majority of the companies net income is being generated from investment opportunities rather than from the sales of…
Net sales for Competition Bikes, Inc. increased 33% from year 6 to year 7. This yielded a 31.8% increase in costs of goods sold. Gross profit in year 7 was up by 37.5%. This is done by subtracting the cost of goods sold (3,294,000) from net sales (4,485,000) and resulting in the 37.5%. Their overall net earnings increased 313.4% in the course of year 6 to year 7. That is roughly three times their previous earnings. This growth could be attributed to the increased amount of money spent on research and devolvement and on various advertisements. (WGU, 2014)…

Firm E performed very well during the 8 periods we were in control. During those periods we grew the company’s contribution margin from $14.2 million dollars up to $70 million dollars and oversaw a stock price increase of over 170%. During this period we managed a maximum of 5 brands. Three of these five brands are making substantial profits totaling $75.7 million in the 8th period. The other two brands were targeted at the emerging Vodite market and although they are not currently seeing a profit, projections show they are on track to see profits within the next 2 periods (Exhibit #: chart showing Vodite sales)…
To be able to compare the two corporations the team reviewed the projected cash flows for each corporation. What the team learned was that both corporations had a negative Net Present Value, Corporation A NPV is $-966.580.90, whereas B is $-633, 959, 95. Reviewing this report Team C identified that Corporation B began to generate revenue in the coming fourth and fifth years. In addition to the revenue turning over, but so did Corporation B’s Cashflow. Corporation B began to see cashflow by the fourth and fifth year. The team has analyzed, that as the corporation continues to grow due to the Net Present Value. The next step would be to interpret what we just analyzed.…
From the industry benchmark report for 2014, (appendix) between the year 2013 and 2014 our share value increased from 15.80 to 27.04 placing us ahead of everyone in our world. That is an increase of 172%. From out firm reports (appendix), our net income of 2,764,446 unfortunately fell short of our profit forecast. of 3,501,014. Even though our share holder’s value was the highest amongst our competitors, our profit before taxes was second to Bikes ‘R’Us by a total of $450,000. They had a profit of 4,339,987 while we only had a profit of 3,949,209. A part of the reason why our net income didn’t meet our forecasts and profit before taxes fell short of Bikes’R’Us is due to the limited production of the youth bike. The demand for the product was above 80,000 units, however we were not able to capitalize on that because we had only projected the demand to be 30,000. Therefore we had a loss sale of 50,000 units according to the product report (appendix). The underestimation in sales was due to the lack of knowledge of how the market would react to the launch of the youth bike.…
For once, some good news from a heartland manufacturer: On Apr. 22, Caterpillar (CAT) surprised investors with blockbuster first-quarter results. The maker of heavy equipment and engines reported that sales leaped 34%, to $6.47 billion, a first-quarter record, while profits more than tripled, also a period best. Price increases of 1.5%, imposed across the board on Jan. 1, lifted both sales and profits by $74 million. More important was an upsurge in orders throughout Cat's product line and in virtually every geographic market.…
In the 1980s a stronger dollar hurt Caterpillar’s competitive position, but in 2008 a stronger dollar did not seem to have the same effect. What had changed?…
