company. It not only compares the income but also the expenses and costs. The two types of ratios of
this category are: ("Profitability Ratios - Calculate Margin, Profits, Return on Equity (ROE)", 2019)
(a) Return on equity – This ratio is used by the stakeholder’s as it shows the return earned by them
for the equity invested in the company. ROE is calculated by dividing profit of the company with
the equity of the stakeholders. For Tech Solutions, the return on equity is 36.31% which means
that by introducing $100 of the capital in the company, the investors can earn a profit of $36.31.
(b) Profit margin ratio – Profit margin is an important profitability ratio and shows the percentage
of net profit earned over the sales revenue. For Tech Solutions, the profit margin ratio is 61.41%.
it means that for every sale of $1, the company is generating the net profit of $0.6141 cents.
II. Asset Efficiency Ratios
This category of ratio measures the operating and profitability efficiency of the company’s assets. It
shows that whether the company’s assets are optimally used and are generating efficient results. The
two types of ratios in this category are: ("Efficiency Ratios | Example | My Accounting Course",
2019)
(a) Assets turnover ratio – This ratio shows the return generated by the company’s assets and is
measured by dividing sales with the total assets employed in the business. For Tech Solutions, the
assets turnover ratio is 0.46 times that means that for every asset investment of $1, the company
can generate $0.46 cents of return over it.

(b) Times debtors turnover – This ratio reflects the percentage of debtors outstanding against te
sales and shows the efficiency of the company to collect its debtors on time. For Tech Solutions,
this ratio is 8.49 times which means that out of $100 of sales only $8.49 of sales remains
uncollected.
III. Liquidity Ratios
This category of ratios measures the liquidity position of the company and are as below:
(a) Current ratio – Current ratio shows the company’s ability to repay its current liabilities from its
available current assets. For Tech Solutions, this ratio is 7.03 times which means that the current
assets are 7.03 times more than the current liabilities.
(b) Cash Flow ratio – This ratio shows the effectiveness of company to repay its current liabilities
from its cash flow from operations. In given case, this ratio is 3.44 times, which means that the
company’s cash flow from operations are 3.44 times of its current liabilities.

of the company. The main ratios are:

the total equity.
(b) Equity ratio – This ratio compares the total equity of the company with the total assets. For Tech
Solutions, this ratio is 77.07% which means that the total assets are financed 77.07% from the
equity.
2) Limitation of Analysis
The major limitation of the ratio analyses is that it is calculated on the book values and do not
consider the market value of the assets and liabilities. (Bragg & Bragg, 2019)
3) Conclusion

4) Recommendations
The company should improve its current ratio which shows that the company’s current assets are not
optimally utilized, the ideal current ratio should be 2:1. So, the company should increase its current
liabilities and should use its current assets effectively.
