Financial Ratios: Financial ratios are the metrics used to evaluate the liquidity, capabilities, profitability, and overall performance of a company.
(a)
Working capital is determined as the difference between current assets and current liabilities.
Formula:
Calculate working capital for May 31, 2015 and May 31, 2016.
Thus, working capital for 2016 and 2015 is $9,667.0 and $9,255.0
b)

Current assets include cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, net, accounts and notes receivables, net, inventories, and prepaid expenses and other current assets. Current liabilities include short-term obligations and accounts payable.
Formula:
Current ratio for 2016 and 2015
Thus, current ratio for 2016 and 2015 is 2.8 and 2.5
c)
Acid-Test Ratio is the ratio denotes that this ratio is a more rigorous test of solvency than the current ratio. It is determined by dividing quick assets and current liabilities. The acceptable acid-test ratio is 0.90 to 1.00. Use the following formula to determine the acid-test ratio:
Acid-test ratio for 2016
Working notes:
Quick Assets are those assets that are most liquid. The examples of quick assets include cash and bank balances, marketable securities, and sundry debtors. Use the following formula to determine the Quick assets:

Formula:
Average accounts receivable, net for 2016 and 2015 is determined as follows:
Hence, the accounts receivable turnover ratio for 2016 and 2015 is 9.8 times and 9.5 times.
e)
Number of days’ sales in receivables for 2016 and 2015
Description:
Number of days’ sales in receivables is used to determine the number of days a particular company takes to collect accounts receivables.
Formula:
Average daily sales are determined by dividing sales by 365 days. Average accounts receivables for 2016 and 2015 are determined in previous requirement. Thus, average daily sales for 2016 and 2015 are determined as follows:
Hence, the number of days’ sales in receivable for 2016 and 2015 are 9.8 days and 9.5 days respectively.
f)
Inventory turnover ratio for 2016 and 2015
Description:
Inventory turnover ratio is used to determine the number of times inventory used or sold during the particular accounting period.
Formula:
Average inventory for 2016 and 2015 is determined as below:
Hence, the inventory turnover ratio for 2016and 2015 is 3.8 and 4.0 respectively.
g)
Number of days sales in inventory for 2016 and 2015
Description:
Number of days’ sales in inventory is determined as the number of days a particular company takes to make sales of the inventory available with them.

h)
