  1. Improving Financial Performance: What Is the Payoff?

  2. Objectives • Understanding determinates of operating performance (ROA) • Understanding determinates of financial performance (ROE) • Links between managerial decisions and financial performance

  3. Operating Profit Margin Turnover Ratio Return on Assets X = Determinants of Operating Performance (ROA) • Operating profit margin • Asset turnover ratio

  4. Return on Assets InterestAssets Leverage ROE - X = Determinants of Financial Performance (ROE) • Operating profit margin • Asset turnover ratio • Leverage

  5. Profitability Analysis AKA The DuPont Model

  6. Gross Revenue Fixed Costs Variable Costs Net Income - - = Operating Profit Margin Net Income Interest Expense Gross Revenue + ÷ = - Interest Assets ROA x Gross Revenue ÷ Turnover Ratio Total Assets = ROE x Financial Structure Total Assets Equity Financial Structure ÷ = DuPont Analysis Operating Performance

  7. Implications • If ROE > ROA • Interest rate less than ROA • Making money on borrowed money • Increase ROE by borrowing more (but be careful)

  8. Implications • If ROE < ROA • ROA less than interest rate • Losing money on borrowed money • Reduce interest cost • Reduce debt • Improve operating performance (ROA)

  9. Improving performance • Ways to enhance operating performance (ROA) • Increase operating profit margin • Increase volume per dollar invested or capital turnover • Ways to enhance equity return (ROE) • Enhance operating performance • Reduce financing costs • Leverage – more debt

  10. Income Statement Balance Sheet Data for Profit Analysis • Gross Revenue • Fixed Costs • Variable Costs • Interest Costs • Total Assets • Equity

  18. Reduced interest • Opportunity to refinance term debt at a 1% lower interest rate • $91,648 in intermediate debt and $799,573 term • Saves about $8,913

  19. Complete Alternative on Worksheet 4

  22. Earlier soybean planting • Has been planting about half of soybeans after June 23 • Pushing harder would result in about a 10% increase in soybean revenue • No change in costs

  23. Earlier Planting

  24. Earlier Planting Results

  25. Summary • Measurement of performance • Operating: ROA • Financial: ROE • Determinants of rates of return • Operating profit margin • Asset turnover ratio • Cost of debt • Leverage • Links among managerial decisions & rates of return

  26. Key Points? • What are the 2 key elements of operating performance? • Overall financial performance is measured by what ratio? • With respect to financial performance, when is debt a good thing?
