Vertical Analysis
Once financial

statement items are


converted into
percentages of the
base item, users can
compare one
companys financials
against anothers
These are called
common-size
statements

Common-Size Statements
Show all items as percentages of the key, or

base, amount
Use no RUPEE amounts
Facilitate financial statement comparison
among different sized companies
Improve users ability to assess company
performance against industry averages

Common-Size Statements
Can also be used to

evaluate company
performance over
time
Refer to textbook
Exhibit 13-6

Benchmarking Against the


Industry Average

Benchmarking is a term used to describe


the process of comparing a companys
activities to a standard of excellence
achieved by industry leaders

Benchmarking Against Key


Competitors
A company also can compare its

common-size financials to those of its


industrys leaders
Determine where it differs
Design and implement business
processes to bring financial results in
line with these benchmark entities

Statement of Cash Flows in


Decision Making
Summarizes sources

and uses of entitys


cash flows
Internal and external
decision makers want
to see majority of
cash inflows coming
from operating
activities
WHY?

Statement of Cash Flows in


Decision Making
Company cannot stay in business for

long if it cannot generate enough cash


from operations to cover operating
expenses
While borrowing and investing activities
provide cash for business use, longterm reliance on these activities for
sources of cash is not advised

Using Ratios to Make Business


Decisions
Ratios measure an entitys ability to:
Pay current liabilities
Sell inventory and collect receivables
Pay long-term debt
Generate profits from operations
Sustain shareholder wealth

Using Ratios to Make Business

to quickly sell inventory


Too high a ratio may
indicate inadequate
inventory levels
Turnover ratio should be
compared to historical
and industry averages
Analyze significant
variances

Days Sales in Receivables


Average net A/R
(Net sales / 365 days)

(Rs1,031,548 / 365 days)
= 2.22 days

Days Sales in Receivables


Lands Ends receivables ratios look

unusual when compared to the


textbook and industry averages
This is due to significant volume of
sales made with bank cards like
VISA, MasterCard, and American
Express

Days Sales in Receivables


These sales treated like cash

sales - merchandisers receive


payment for them almost
immediately
Lands Ends receivables are
rather small when compared to
total net sales

Measuring the Companys


Ability to Pay Long-Term Debt
Bondholders and long-term lenders are

concerned about an entitys ability to repay


debt principal and accumulated interest on
long-term notes and loans
2 ratios help these users assess the entitys
ability to pay its long-term obligations
Debt ratio
Times-interest-earned ratio

Debt Ratio
Relationship between companys total

liabilities and total assets


Measures proportion of total assets
provided through debt

provided by equity

Debt Ratio

Debt Ratio
If debt ratio = 1.0,

company used all debt


to finance acquisition
of its assets
A highly unlikely
situation
Thus, debt ratio is
generally less than 1.0

LOANS,
NOTES,
BONDS,
ETC.

Debt Ratio
The higher the ratio, the more

cash the company must commit


toward paying annual interest
expense and loan principal
As a result, companys cash
flow might be negatively
affected

Debt Ratio
Lenders and

creditors might
require company to
appropriate portion
of retained earnings
to ensure sufficient
assets to repay
interest and loan
principal

Times-Interest-Earned Ratio

companys net income


from operations and
interest expense

operating income

ratio indicates ease


in meeting debt

Times-Interest-Earned Ratio

A low ratio would

signal possible
difficulties in making
payments to lenders
and bondholders

Measuring a Companys
Profitability
Financial analysts pay close attention to

ratios which assess a companys ability to


generate profits and operate efficiently

companys potential to generate net income
when they make lending and investing
choices
