Performance of business
The performance of Turnbull’s Wholesale was less than the performance expected of an average firm just starting up in that type of industry. In the analysing the financial statements of the business it was evident that the business performed poorly even though it made a profit and it was only for one
month. In the month of January the business mustered a net profit of $401, this profit may be attributable to the fact that the business is new, and is expected of a new business to have some forms of problem. Turnbull’s Wholesale sales were more than the expenses which Is always a good thing as a result the business had a better chance of making a profit which it did. The turnover ratio was 0.76 which means the stock is being converted into sales less than 1 time during the month of January also the gross mark-up was 57.8% which means the mark up on cost was only enough to arrive at the selling price which is not adequate to meet Turnbull’s Wholesale expenses. Turnbull’s wholesale took 18 days to collect outstanding funds from credit customers in the month of January.

RATIOS
Ratio Analysis and Interpretation of results
Working capital ratio:
Comparison made: Beginning vs ending
Working Capital= CA-Cl=27,110-25,610
This reveals that at the beginning of the month the working capital was $27110, however at the end it was reduced by $1,500 to $25,610 a decrease of 5.5%.
Ratio: 27,110
25,610
= 1:1
Solvency Ratios:
(a) Current Ratio = CA CLComparison Made = Beginning vs Ending CA = 27,110 25,525 CL = 1,500 6,752 18:1 4:1
This means that at the beginning of the month current assets could cover current liabilities 18 times. However at the end of the month this was reduced to 4 times.
This means current assets without at the beginning of the month could cover current liabilities 10 times. However at the end of the month it is reduced to 2 times.
Gross Profit % Sales: GP X 100
Net Sales
= 4,916 X 100
13,468
= 36.5%
This means that for every $100 of sales 36.5% or $36.50 goes to cover expenses and contribute to any net profit.
Net profit % of Sales: Net Profit X 100
Net Sales
= 401 X 100
= 2.9%
This means that for every $100 of sales, the business owner is gaining 2.9% or $2.9.
32
Gross Mark-Up: GP X 100
COGS
= 4,916 x 100
8,552
=57.8%
This means that the mark up on cost was only enough to arrive at the selling price. This is definitely not adequate to meet the Turnbull’s Wholesale expenses.
Turn Over Ratio: COGS
Average Stock
= 8,552
10400 + 12,000/2
= 0.763 or 0.76
This means that the stock is being converted into sales less than 1 time during the month of January.
33
Debtors to Creditor Ratio:
This measures the length of time taken for debtors to pay the business and the business in turn its creditors.
Debtors Sales Ratio = Trade Debtors X 31
Credit Sales
= 7,800 X 31
13,768
= 17.5 days or 18 days
This means that it takes 18 days for the Turnbull’s wholesale to collect outstanding funds from credit customers in the month of January.
Creditors to Debtors Ratio:
This measures the length of time taken for the business to pay its suppliers.
Credit Sales Ratio = Creditors X 31
Purchases
= 6,602 X 31
7,054
= 29 days
This means that it takes Turnbull’s Wholesale 29 days to pay the suppliers.
34
Expense as a percentage of Sales:
= Expense X 100
Sales
= 4,590 X 100
13,768
= 33%
This means 33% of sails is an individual expense to Turnbull’s Grocery.
Return on Capital Employed Ratio (ROCE)
= Net Profit X 100
Capital Employed
= 401 X 100
180,610
= 0.22%
This means that Turnbull’s Wholesale receives a net profit of only 22c per $100.

Recommendations
After all these analysis, I have noticed that the business the business was not successful even though it made a profit.
In order to improve Turnbull’s Wholesale return the business will maximise the sale of goods by cash as this will and I will lessen all expenses. By doing this there will a greater chance of the business being more successful as a result of the business gaining profit. Turnbull’s Wholesale will limit the amount of credit sale to increase the frequency of earnings on sales and also provide discount to creditors to less the amount of days it takes for the business to collect outstanding funds from our credit customers. The business will also try lessen the expenses which will help Turnbull’s wholesale by increasing the net profit.
