In 2011, the firm’s ability to cover its current liabilities with its current assets
was 1.05. In 2012, the ratio goes up to 1.09 as compared to 2011, which means
that the company has the ability to pay its liabilities, as the definition says that
higher the ratio, greater the ability of the firm to pay its bills. This tells that
Coca-Cola is improving their liquidity and efficiency, because their current ratio
is improving.

Quick/Acid Test Ratio:

According to the definition of Acid Test Ratio, the company should have the ability
to pay its liabilities through its most liquid assets. The table shows that in 2011, the
firm has the ratio 0.92 cents. Then we observe a slight improvement in 2012. *So
we can figure out from the ratios that Coca-Cola still cannot pay its debts without
its inventory. This leads us to believe that Coca-Cola is a somewhat risky business,
even though it is the largest in the nonalcoholic beverage industry.

Inventory Turnover 5.90 5.80
The Coca-Cola’s Inventory turnover ratios deteriorated from 2011 to 2012,
which means that its ability to sell inventory has relatively come down. In 2011
Coca-Cola had a ratio of 5.90 and in 2012 has a ratio of 5.80. *These ratios are
not what we expected; we assumed that the ratios would be much higher
because Coca-Cola sell its syrup to bottling partners around the world so it does
not need to deal with the storing of the bottled product.

The ability of the firm of collecting the receivables in the specific time. Here
in the year 2011 the turnover in days was almost 39, but the collection days
decrease in the year 2012 and the collection period of approximately 36 days
is well within the 60 days allowed in the credit terms. This shows that the
collection is faster as compared to the previous year.

The ratio shows the company’s ability to cover its debts through its total
assets. The ratio was 60.09% in 2011, then goes up in 2012. The ratio has to be
low. So we can interpret that in the year 2012, the risk of the firm is getting
higher as the ratio goes up.

high sales. Here in this table there is small difference between the ratios in two

According to the definition, higher the ratio, higher will be the firm’s ability to
pay its taxes. In the year 2011, the margin was little low but in 2012 the margin
increases by 0.4%. For the company, roughly 0.38 cents out of every sales dollar
consists of ‘After Tax Profit'. Coca-Cola is more efficient at converting sales into
actual profit and its cost control is good.

Coca-Cola’s price-earnings ratio has decreased 0.6 times in 2012, because in
2011 the ratio was 19.00 times but in 2012 it become 18.40 times which
suggests that investors may be looking less favorably at the Coca-Cola. This
ratio should be high, because the higher the P/E ratio, the higher will be the
investors confidence in company.

17. Conclusion
After applying all the ratios we got an idea that
the Coca Cola Company is a profitable firm.
Because through out the analysis of two years, we
found that the company is getting profitable
return on short term and long term investment,
their profit margin has been increased as well
and they are in the position to pay their debts
with in their resources.
