Question 2
No, we wouldn't choose Boeing Company as an aspirant company. We wouldn't choose them
because Boeing Company sells to large commerical companies while the others sell to individuals
or not large companys, the current ratio (.74) would be viewed as negative because it is less than
the average (1.43).
Quick Ratio: is 0.39 while the average ratio is 0.35. This is slightly above the average ratio
meaning that it would be seen as positive.
Cash Ratio: is 0.15 while the average ratio is 0.21, it is seen as negative.
Total Asset Turnover: is 2.01 while the average ratio is 0.85. This means that for every $1 in assets
the company is generating $2.01 in sales. S&S is above the industry average so this ratio is seen
as positive.
Inventory Turnover: is 27.34 while the average is 6.15. Which means it would be seen as positive.
Receivables Turnover: is 54.91 while the average is 9.82. This ratio is seen as very positive relative
to the industry.
Total Debt Ratio: was 0.43 while the industry average was 0.52. For every $1 of assets about $0.43
of that dollar is debt. S&S has less debt than the average company in this industry, therefore this
ratio would be seen as postive.
Equity Multiplier: is 1.75 while the industry average is 2.08. Their ratio is seen as negative.
Times Interest Earned: is 6.37 while the industry average is 8.06. Their ratio is seen as negative
relative to the industry.
Cash Coverage Ratio: is 9.23 while the industry average is 9.41. It is seen as negative relative to
the industry.
Profit Margin: is 0.050 while the industry average is 5.10%. It would be seen as negative relative to
of that dollar is debt. S&S has less debt than the average company in this industry, therefore this
ratio would be seen as postive.
Equity Multiplier: is 1.75 while the industry average is 2.08. Their ratio is seen as negative.
Times Interest Earned: is 6.37 while the industry average is 8.06. Their ratio is seen as negative

Cash Coverage Ratio: is 9.23 while the industry average is 9.41. It is seen as negative relative to

Return on Assets: is 0.1015 while the industry average is 10.53%. S&S is lower than the average
so their ratio is seen as negative.
Return on Equity: is 0.1775 while the industry average is 18.14%. This is less than the average so
their ratio is seen as negative.
It would be appropriate to use Bombardier as an alernative company because they are the worlds
leader of both planes and trains and are award winning mobility solutions. Bombardier is also
listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability North America Index. During 2015, Bombardier posted
revenues of $18.2 Billion.
Cirrus Design Corporation would not be a good aspirant company because they only produce little
planes and jets. They don't have much varitey. And they have very low revenue.
We didn't choose Embraer because they do not just focus on one type of aircraft. They have four
different types of aircrafts that they manufacture. They create commerical aviation planes,
executive jets, defense and security planes, as well as agricultural aviation planes. We feel like we
would rather have a company that focuses on one or two types of planes, rather than four.
We didn't choose Cessna Aircraft Company because they really only make personal jets, and smal
compact planes. The maximum passenger capacity is between 9 and 12 passengers. They aren't
very diverse when it comes to their planes.

ess than the average so
S&S Air's sales ratio is most likely lower than other
becasue they are in the business of making custom
use they are the worlds airplanes while Boeing manufactures commercial ai
Bombardier is also to vary much.
