...Ratio Analysis Memo Principles of Accounting II ACC/291 Ratio Analysis Memo For the first ratio of solvency debt to total assets one must take the total debt Kroger owns 20,440.7 and divide it by the total assets 24,651.5. Once this is done Kroger has a debt to total assets ratio of .83, which means that 83% of Kroger's assets are financed by creditors. This is a not a good debt to assets ratio because Kroger only owns 17% of its assets out right. Kroger has a high debt to asset ratio which can be negative, but could also be less expensive then obtaining funds with equity. Carrying a high debt to assets ratio comes with risk, because the company must pay on its obligations or risk creditors seizing assets. Companies with low debt to assets ratios tend to have many shareholders that they must share profits with. The key to running a quality company is balancing that with assets to build a balanced financial backing planned for future acquisitions. Kroger's times interest earned calculation is done by taking the net income 1,496.5 plus interest expense -462 plus tax expense 793.8 which gives 1827.8 for a total. Then after this calculation is done one must divide it by the interest expense 462 which gives 3.9 for a times interest earned. The times interest earned ratio shows Kroger's ability to pay interest payments on loans when they come due. Kroger's 3.9 times interest earned ratio shows that Kroger can pay its interest 3.9 times with its income. This high number helps...

Ratios are calculated from current year numbers and are then compared to previous years, other companies, the industry, or even the economy to judge the performance of the company. Ratio analysis is predominately used by proponents of fundamental analysis to judge the performance of the company. Analyzing ratios is used to evaluate a company's present performance and its possible future performance.

...Ratios and Formulas in Customer Financial Analysis Financial statement analysis is a judgmental process. One of the primary objectives is identification of major changes in trends, and relationships and the investigation of the reasons underlying those changes.
