I. RATIO ANALYSIS COMPUTATION

A. LIQUIDITY RATIO

A.1. Current Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities


 Current Ratio = 59,664 / 78,521
 Current Ratio = 0.76

A.2. Current Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2019)


 Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
 Current Ratio = 61,897 / 77,477
 Current Ratio = 0.80

A.3. Current Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2020)


 Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
 Current Ratio = 61,806 / 77,790
 Current Ratio = 0.79

A.4. Current Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2021)


 Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
 Current Ratio = 90,067 / 92,645
 Current Ratio = 0.97

 Implication: As a general rule, a current ratio below 1.00 could indicate that a company might struggle to meet its
short term obligations, whereas ratios of above 1.00 might indicate a company is able to pay its current debts as
they come due. In other words, the company WALMART Inc. may have relatively fewer current assets to cover its
short-term obligations, which could indicate a potential liquidity concern.

B. QUICK RATIO

B.1. Quick Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)


Republic of the Philippines
UNIVERSITY OF RIZAL SYSTEM- BINANGONAN
Province of Rizal

INSTITUTE OF GRADUATE STUDIES


Binangonan, Campus
 Quick Ratio = (Cash & Cash Equivalents + Accounts Receivables) / Current Liabilities
 Quick Ratio = (6,756 + 5,614) / 78,521
 Quick Ratio = 12,370 / 78,521
 Quick Ratio = 0.16

B.2. Quick Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Quick Ratio = (Cash & Cash Equivalents + Accounts Receivables) / Current Liabilities
 Quick Ratio = (7,722 + 6,283) / 77,477
 Quick Ratio = 14,005 / 77,477
 Quick Ratio = 0.18

B.3. Quick Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Quick Ratio = (Cash & Cash Equivalents + Accounts Receivables) / Current Liabilities
 Quick Ratio = (9,465 + 6,284) / 77,790
 Quick Ratio = 15,749 / 77,790
 Quick Ratio = 0.20

B.4. Quick Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Quick Ratio = (Cash & Cash Equivalents + Accounts Receivables) / Current Liabilities
 Quick Ratio = (17,741 + 6,516) / 92,645
 Quick Ratio = 24,257 / 92,645
 Quick Ratio = 0.26

 The result of quick ratio for Walmart Inc. is less than 1 covering the period of year 201-2021, it implies that the
company may have challenges meeting its short-term obligations with its most liquid assets alone. Quick assets
typically include cash, marketable securities, and accounts receivable but exclude inventory, as inventory may take
longer to convert to cash.

 For Walmart, a quick ratio less than 1 might suggest that the company relies more heavily on inventory to meet its
short-term obligations. While a quick ratio below 1 doesn't necessarily indicate financial distress on its own, it
could be a signal for investors and analysts to further investigate the company's liquidity position.

C. CASH RATIO

C.1. Cash Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Cash Ratio = Cash & Cash Equivalents / Current Liabilities


 Cash Ratio = 6,756 / 78,521
 Cash Ratio = 0.09

C.2. Cash Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Cash Ratio = Cash & Cash Equivalents / Current Liabilities


 Cash Ratio = 7,722 / 77,477
 Cash Ratio = 0.10

C.3. Cash Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Cash Ratio = Cash & Cash Equivalents / Current Liabilities


 Cash Ratio = 9,465 / 77,790
 Cash Ratio = 0.12

C.4. Cash Ratio (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Cash Ratio = Cash & Cash Equivalents / Current Liabilities


 Cash Ratio = 17,741 / 92,645
 Cash Ratio = 0.19

 Implication: The cash ratio for Walmart Inc. is less than 1, it implies that the company's cash and cash equivalents alone are
not sufficient to cover its current liabilities.

II. RATIO ANALYSIS COMPUTATION

A. PROFITABILITY RATIO

A.1. Gross Margin (Walmart Inc. 2018)

 Gross Margin = (Sales – COGS) / Sales


 Gross Ratio = (500,343 – 373,796) / 500,343
 Gross Ratio = 126,547 / 500,343
 Gross Margin = 0.25

A.2. Gross Margin (Walmart Inc. 2019)

 Gross Ratio = 129,359 /
 Gross Margin = 0.25

A.4. Gross Margin (Walmart Inc. 2021)

 Gross Margin = (Sales – COGS) / Sales


 Gross Ratio = (559,151 – 420,315) / 559,151
 Gross Ratio = 138,836 /
 Gross Margin = 0.25

 Implication: The gross margin for Walmart Inc. for the periods (2018-2021) is 0.25 (or 25%), it means that 25% of its
revenue remains after accounting for the cost of goods sold. A gross margin of 25% suggests that Walmart
retains a quarter of its revenue as gross profit. This can be interpreted as a measure of the company's ability to
generate profit from its core operations. However, whether this is considered high or low depends on industry
standards and the company's business model.

B. OPERATING PROFIT MARGIN

 Net Margin = Net Income / Sales


 Net Margin = 9,862 / 500,343
 Net Margin = 0.02

C.2. Net Margin (Walmart Inc. 2019)

 Net Margin = Net Income / Sales


 Net Margin = 6,670 / 514,405
 Net Margin = 0.02

C.3. Net Margin (Walmart Inc. 2020)

 Net Margin = Net Income / Sales

profit for every dollar of revenue generated. It's important to compare Walmart's net margin with industry
benchmarks and analyze trends over time. Additionally, considering other financial metrics, such as operating
margin, return on equity, and return on assets, can provide a more comprehensive understanding of the
company's financial performance. Companies with low net margins often focus on operational efficiency, cost
control, and strategic initiatives to improve overall profitability.

Implication: Walmart’s Debt to Equity Ratio is greater than 1.5, it implies that the company has a relatively high level of debt
compared to its equity.

Here are some potential implications of a Debt to Equity Ratio greater than 1.5:

1. High Financial Leverage: A Debt to Equity Ratio exceeding 1.5 indicates a high degree of financial leverage, meaning the
company relies significantly on debt to finance its operations and growth.

2. Increased Financial Risk: Higher debt levels generally come with increased financial risk. The company may face challenges
in meeting debt obligations, especially if it experiences a downturn in business, rising interest rates, or other adverse
economic conditions.

3. Interest Expense Impact: Companies with a high Debt to Equity Ratio often incur substantial interest expenses. These
interest payments can impact profitability and reduce the amount of earnings available for distribution to shareholders.

4. Creditworthiness Concerns: A Debt to Equity Ratio above 1.5 may raise concerns about the company's creditworthiness.
Creditors and investors may view high debt levels as a potential sign of financial instability and increased vulnerability to
economic uncertainties.

5. Limited Financial Flexibility: Companies with significant debt may have limited financial flexibility. They might find it
challenging to undertake new investments, acquisitions, or other strategic initiatives without further increasing their debt
burden.

6. Market Perception: Investors and analysts may view a high Debt to Equity Ratio as a signal of financial risk. This perception
can affect the company's stock price and attractiveness to investors, especially those who prioritize lower-risk investments.

7. Potential Impact on Cost of Capital: A high Debt to Equity Ratio can influence the company's cost of capital. Lenders may
demand higher interest rates due to the perceived risk, potentially increasing the overall cost of financing.
