The Plainfield Company has a long-term debt ratio (i. e., the ratio of long-term debt to long-term debt plus equity) of .52 and a current ratio of 1.41. Current liabilities are $2,465, sales are $10,675, profit margin is 9 percent, and ROE is 14 percent.

What is the amount of the firm’s net fixed assets? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)

Net fixed assets $

$13286.84

Explanation:

Given that

Current ratio = 1.41

Current liabilities =2465

Firstly, we calculate for current assets.

Recall that,

Current ratio = current assets / current liabilities

That is,

1.41 = current assets / $2,465

Therefore,

Current assets = $2,465 × 1.41

Current assets = $3475.65

Following that

We find Net Income

Again, recall that

Profit margin = net income / Sales

Where

Profit margin = 0.09 or 9%

Sales = 10,675

0.09 = net income / $10,675

Net income = 0.09 × $10,675

Net income = 960.75

Next step is to find for return on equity

Recall that

ROE = net income / total equity

Where,

ROE was given as 0.14

We got net income as 960.75

Hence,

0.14 = 960.75 / total equity

Total equity = 960.75 / 0.14

Total equity = $6,862.5

Long term debt ratio = long term debt / (long term debt + total equity)

1 / 0.52 = 1 + long term debt / (total equity / long term debt)

0.923 = (total equity / long term debt)

$6,862.5 / long term debt = 0.923

long term debt = 7,434.99

Recall that

Total debt = Current liabilities + long term debt

Thus,

Total debt = $2,465 + $7,434.99

Total debt = 9,899.99

Total asset is given as: total debt + total equity,

Thus,

Total assets = $9,899.99 + $6,862.5

Total assets = 16,762.494

Finally,

Recall that,

Net fixed assets = total assets - current assets

Therefore,

Net fixed assets = 16,762.494 - $3475.65

Net fixed assets = $13286.84
