BACKGROUND OF MCDONALDS CORP.
McDonalds was originally owned by just the McDonald’s brothers,
Richard and Maurice (Dick and Mac) McDonald. It had been in busines s since
1930 in a carhop drive-in, but it was until 1954 when Raymond “Ray” Kroc
founded their restaurant and opened their first franchise in Illinois. That was
when McDonald’s Corporation was created, and since then, the McDonald’s
franchise kept expanding and just in 5 years, the 100th McDonald restaurant
was opened on Chicago.
The original menu set by the McDonald brothers were very simple, of
just two types of burgers, french fries, shakes, soft drinks and apple pie. They
initially used the founder’s milkshake machine to make the shakes, which
made Ray Kroc curious and decided to check their restaurant out.
During 1960 to 1970, the fast-food chain began to grow rapidly. In the
early 1960 Ray Kroc used $2.7 million to buy the concepts rights from the
brothers, and since then, McDonald’s begin expanding not only the size of the
franchise, but also the varieties of food on the menu. The first McDonald
opened outside of the USA was in Canada and Puerto Rico in the year 1967,
and soon, all the countries began expanding the franchise.
Up until today, McDonald had become a worldwide fast-food industry
and could be found almost anywhere. It is ranked the first fast-food chain in
terms of size and popularity, and its net worth on 2013 was $90.3 billion!!

INVESTMENT RECOMMENDATION
From the profitability ratio, the return of equity (ROE) shows that there
was actually a slightly fell on 2013 compare to 2012 and it is bad for their
company. Based on net profit margin (NPM), Mc Donald’s did better at
controlling the expenses on 2013, this is a good thing. And now, take a look at
gross profit margin (GPM), there was a fall on 2013 compare to 2012, this
shows that Mc Donald’s is getting worse at controlling their costs of goods
sold, which is bad. For selling expense ratios (SER), the ability of the
company at controlling their selling expenses is getting worse. However, the
general expense ratio (GER) shows that McDonald’s has improved their
ability at controlling general expenses and it is good. Besides that, the
financial expense ratio (FER) shows that McDonald’s has also improved their
ability at controlling the financial expenses and it is good to the company.
For financial stability ratios, the working capital ratio(WCR) shows that
the WCR of McDonald’s has improved from 1.45:1 to 1.59:1, it doesn’t satisfy
the ratio of 2:1 so this is a good thing, because this company is able to pay
their current liabilities in a shorter time. For total debt ratio (TDR), the TDR
ratio has decreased from 56.8% to 56.3% and it is a good thing, because it
shows that the business is now has a less debt compare to the year before. For
inventory turnover ratio (ITR), the ITR remained unchanged, this shows that
the business was actually selling their products at the same price for the two
years we compared. For debtor turnover ratio (DTR), the DTR has increased
from 359.7 to 372.7 days, this is bad for the business because it means the
business’ ability to collect their debt is getting worsen. For interest coverage
ratio (ICR), the ICR has slightly increased from 11.6 to 11.7 times and this is a
11
good thing to the business, because this means the business’ ability to pay
their interest expense becomes better than the previous year.
