WHAT IS RATIO ?
A Ratio is a mathematical number calculated as a
relationship of two or more number. When the
number is calculated by referring to two accounting
numbers derived from the financial statement. It is
termed as accounting ratio.

Eg:- if the Gross Profit of the business is rs


10000 and the Revenue From Operations are
100000. it can be said that the Gross Profit is 10% ;
10000/100000*100.

be calculated for one year only. When many years figures
are kept side by side, they help a great deal in exploring a
trend visible in the business.

business in identifying the problem areas as well as the
bright areas of the business.
Helps to understand efficacy of Decisions:- The
ratio analysis helps you to understand whether the
business firm has taken the right kind of operating,
investing, and financial decisions.

Limitations of accounting data:- Accounting data gives
an unwarranted impression of precision and finality. It
reflect a combination of recorded fact accounting
conventions and personal judgement which affect them
materiality.
Ignores price level changes:- The financial accounting is
based on money measurement concepts. It implicity assumes
that price level changes are either non-existence or minimal.
Ignore Qualitative or non-monetary aspects:-
Accounting provides information about quantitative aspects
of business not the qualitative.
