BUTLER
1. The company operations were limited to the retail distribution of lumber products in the local area. These include Plywood, moldings, and sash
and door products. Butler Lumber Company is well in general financially. By looking at the sales and asset growth, the company is able to gain more
in terms of sales especially since the company is run with few employees. With additional employees, it is able to improve its sales growth. Taking
into account of its the profitability, Butler Lumber Company has increasing ROE along with increasing ROIC. Its credit terms also enable the business
to increase it days in payables and its management of its inventory as a proportion of sales indicates a better management of inventory over years.
On the flip side of the coin, there might some ratios that might indicate otherwise such as ROA and profit margin. However, given its strategy, the
profit margin decrease is largely justified. In terms of liquidity, both Butler’s current and quick ratios along with time interest earned have been the
decreasing over the years. However, the numbers still indicates good ability to pay off debt in case of liquidation and still remains healthy. Similarly, in
terms of gearing and leverage, its numbers had been increasing however, given that Butler Lumber is in a growing business, it largely reasonable for
Butler Lumber to increase its debt as a proportion of its assets. In a nutshell, based on the financial ratios alone, Butler Lumber’s remains financially
sound

2.      The company has been using cash reserves and constant borrowing of money to cover its  liabilities. The reason Mr. Butler is continuing to 
have to borrow so much money is that when he  bought out Mr. Starks’s interest in the company he became in debt which caused him to have to  take 
out a loan to repay the amount he owed to Mr. Stark and therefore increased his amount of  debt. Mr. Butler has not been managing his company’s 
cash flow wisely. He is consistently  having to having to use cash reserves to pay back liabilities and he is offering too much credit to  his customers 
which is increasing his accounts receivable.
