2) Both US and China have current ratio >1. 
A company with a current ratio less than 1.0 does not, in many cases, have the capital on hand to meet its short-term obligations if they were all due at once, while a current ratio greater than one indicates the company has the financial resources to remain solvent in the short term.

F is way below regression line => It is not very profitable
GM has much higher operating income than F with less cost=> Quite profitable.
LEA and BWA are smaller in size but above the line.

As shown by the picture, a higher liability asset ratio(X) may lead to a lower operating margin(Y) for the years from 2015 to 2018. One explanation is that, a higher liability asset ratio may incur a higher other cost in the income statement, which can reduce the operating margin.
The Equation of the line also suggests y proportional to -x

The liability asset ratio may affect the return on assets. As shown by this picture, a higher liability asset ratio may drive down the return on assets.

Tesla's COGS ~ Industry Average but other costs are much bigger and thus leading to poor net income wrt others.

Tesla and GM have similar profiles as industry average. Ford has least equity among these 3.

We can see Tesla is falling extremely short on net receivables but the good news is it has lot of cash! Much higher than industry average. Also, it has larger inventory and Property plant suggesting a lot of scope for growth in future.
