David Montinola is employed as a bank loan officer for Bank of Philippine Islands. He is comparing two companies that have applied for loans, and he wants your help in evaluating those companies. The two companies- Philip Inc., and Morris Company – are approximately the same size and had approximately the same cash balance at the beginning of 2011.

Abbreviated information (in thousands of pesos) from Philip, Inc., and Morris Company is as follows:
