7. Learning Objectives • Understand the purpose of financial statement analysis. • Perform a vertical analysis of a company’s financial statements by: • Comparing those accounts on the income statement as a percentage of net sales and comparing those accounts on the balance sheet as a percentage of total assets for a period of two or more accounting cycles. • Determining those areas within the company that require additional monitoring and control.

11. Vertical Analysis • Vertical analysis is the process of using a single variable on a financial statement as a constant and determining how all of the other variables relate as a percentage of the single variable.

13. Horizontal Analysis • Horizontal analysis is a determination of the percentage increase or decrease in an account from a base time period to successive time periods. • The basic formula is:

15. Vertical Analysis of a Balance Sheet • Vertical analysis of the balance sheet is always carried out by using total assets as a constant, or 100 percent, and dividing every figure on the balance sheet by total assets. • The formula is:

17. Ratio Analysis • Ratio analysis is used to determine the health of a business, especially as that business compares to other firms in the same industry or similar industries. • A ratio is nothing more than a relationship between two variables, expressed as a fraction.

18. Types of Business Ratios • Liquidity ratios determine how much of a firm’s current assets are available to meet short-term creditors’ claims. • Activity ratios indicate how efficiently a business is using its assets. • Leverage (debt) ratios indicate what percentage of the business assets is financed with creditors’ dollars.

19. Types of Business Ratios (continued) • Profitability ratios are used by potential investors and creditors to determine how much of an investment will be returned from either earnings on revenues or appreciation of assets. • Market ratios are used to compare firms within the same industry. They are primarily used by investors to determine if they should invest capital in the company in exchange for ownership.

20. Liquidity Ratios • Current Ratio:The current ratio is calculated by dividing total current assets by total current liabilities. • The current ratio is given by the following:

21. Liquidity Ratios (continued) • Quick, or Acid Test, Ratio:This ratio does not count the sale of the company’s inventory or prepaids. It measures the ability of the firm to meet its short-term obligations without liquidating its inventory. • The acid test ratio is given by the following:

31. Profitability Ratios (continued) • Operating profit margin ratio is used to determine how much each dollar of sales generates in operating income. • Operating profit margin is given by the following:

33.

45. Chapter 5 Profit, Profitability, and Break-Even Analysis

46. Learning Objectives • Understand the difference between efficiency and effectiveness. • Distinguish between profit and profitability. • Compare accounting and entrepreneurial profit. • Understand the relationship of profit margin and asset turnover on the earning power of a company.

47. Learning Objectives (continued) • Given the variable costs, revenue, and fixed costs of a business, determine the break-even point and contribution margin. • Construct and analyze a break-even chart when given variable costs, revenue, and fixed costs of a business.

48. Learning Objectives (continued) • Understand the use of leverage and its relationship to profitability and loss. • Distinguish between Chapters 11, 13, and 7 bankruptcy. • Compare and contrast the degree of operating, financial, and combined leverage and their effect on the profitability of a corporation.

49. Efficiency and Effectiveness • Efficiency is obtaining the highest possible return with the minimum use of resources. • Effectiveness, on the other hand, is accomplishing a specific task or reaching a goal.

50. Profit Versus Profitability • Profit is an absolute number that is earned on an investment. • Accounting profit, for a business, is typically shown at the bottom of an income statement as net income. • Entrepreneurial profit is the amount that is earned above and beyond what the entrepreneur would have earned if he or she had chosen to invest time and money in some other enterprise.
