c. If you were asked to respond to parts ​(a​) and ​(b​) as part of a training​ exercise, what could you tell your boss about the​ company's financial condition based on your​ answers?"

The financial condition of the company can be considered healthy, since its profit margin is almost 15%, although its debt to equity ratio is high = $60,600 / $59,710 = 101.5%. The company has too much debt, even though it makes enough money to pay its obligations.
