Evaluation and Control • Which measures to use to assess performance depends on: • the company you are looking at and • the objectives to be achieved.
Evaluation and Control • In consideration of the company • how big is the company? • how diversified is the company? • how competitive is the company’s industry? • what is the strategic approach of the company?
Evaluation and Control • In consideration of objectives: • focused on cost efficiency in processing, inbound and outbound logistics, etc. • focused on maintaining strong brand identity • attempting to increase market penetration • trying to fill one or two small market niches • focused on rapidly introducing new product generations
Evaluation and Control Balanced Scorecard - Some Thoughts Should the company include non-financial measures to determine overall performance? • Market-based: market share, brand identity, etc. • Society-based: environmental policies and reporting, human resource policies • How important are these factors to the company’s long term viability?
Evaluation and Control • Triple Bottom Line Performance - Adding Social and Environmental Issues • “Measures” of Social Performance: • Employee Safety – Injuries • Health Care program • Hours of Employee Training • Day Care • Maternity and Paternity Leave • Community Engagement activities

Evaluation and Control Financial Performance - Profitability Ratios Margin Ratios Gross margin = gross profit/sales x 100% Operating margin = operating income/sales x 100% Profit margin = net income/sales x 100% • changes can be early warning of serious problems (down 1 or 2% can be the difference between healthy profits or a loss in many industries)
Evaluation and Control Financial Performance - Profitability Ratios Return on Investment Ratios Return on Assets = Net Income/Total Assets • good for evaluating divisional managers (how well did they utilize the assets entrusted to them) but not so good for evaluating overall firm performance Return on Equity = Net Income/Stockholders’ Equity • good for evaluating overall firm performance (how well did the firm’s top management use the resources provided by owners) but not for evaluating divisional managers
Evaluation and Control Financial Performance - Efficiency Ratios Inventory turnover ratio = cost of goods sold/average inventory balance Days to sell inventory= 365/inventory turnover • large inventory incurs excessive interest, warehousing, property tax and spoilage costs • small inventory risks lost sales or production line stoppage due to stock outs of finished goods or raw materials, respectively
Evaluation and Control Financial Performance - Liquidity Ratios To little liquidity raises possibility of default & bankruptcy; to much implies long term investments w/ greater profitability have been missed. Current ratio = current assets/current liabilities • varies by industry - airline industry (receivables & inventory are low), manufacturing industry (receivables & inventory fairly high), distillery (inventories quite high) Quick ratio = (don’t worry about this one)
Evaluation and Control • How do you find out what financial data you should include in your report. • Look at annual reports. What performance measurements do the chairman, president, or other top management often make reference to? • Look at industry analyst reports: What performance measurements do industry analysts often make reference to when discussing companies in this industry?

Evaluation and Control • Responsibility Centers • Standard Cost Centers: primarily manufacturing; efficiency – costs per unit produced; compare expected and actual production costs • Revenue Centers: generally sales; effectiveness – sales generated; compare previous year’s/projected to actual sales. • Expense Centers: generally administration, service & research; indirect contribution to revenues.
Evaluation and Control • Responsibility Centers • Profit Centers: SBU or division controls expenses and revenues, perhaps based on product line. • Investment Centers: generally facility-based; return on investment; revenue generated compared to value of facility
