4 volume Units of plant capacity Turnover 1. Ratios for activity analysis: Long-term (investment) activity ratios Fixed asset turnover ratio Fixed Asset Turnover Level of sales generated by investments in productive AverageFixed Assets capacity Problems: growth is continuous, investments in capacity are discrete. That gives management discretionary power over timing, form, and financial reporting of the acquisition of incremental capacity. Timing of a firm s asset purchases: Company/product cycle Plant capacity required Fixed asset turnover Startup Growth Maturity Decline Startup Growth Maturity Decline Startup Growth Maturity Decline Accumulation of depreciation expense improves turnover ratio without corresponding improvement in efficiency. Newer assets are generally more efficient (new technology) but might decrease the turnover ratio because inflation makes them more expensive. Total asset Total Asset Turnover Measure of overall investment turnover ratio Average Total Assets efficiency Handout Problem Set 1: Financial Ratios 4

16 Ratios: an integrated analysis Financial analysis requires a review of three interrelationships among ratios: Economic relationships: Example: Higher sales are generally associated with higher investment in working capital components such as receivables and inventory. Ratios comprising these elements should be correlated Overlap of components: Identical terms in the numerator or denominator of different ratios A term in one ratio being a subset or component of another ratio Aggregations like the total assets turnover as aggregation of inventory, accounts receivable, and fixed asset turnover Ratios as composites of other ratios, e.g., ROA = profitability x turnover Implications of these interrelationships: Disaggregation of a ratio into its components allows us to gain insights into factors affecting a firm s performance Ratio differences can highlight the economic characteristics and strategies of The same firm over time Firms in the same industry Firms in different industries Firms in different countries Handout Problem Set 1: Financial Ratios 16

17 Analysis of firm performance Disaggregation of ROA ROA Total Asset Turnover Return on Assets OperatingIncome A firm s overall profitability is the product of an activity ratio and a profitability ratio Relationship between ROE and ROA ROE ROA Debt ROA - Cost of Debt Equity Benefits from financial leverage Disaggregation of ROE ROE Profitability Activity Solvency Income Net Income EBT EBT EBIT Assets EBIT Assets Equity Net Income Standard dupont analysis Extended dupont analysis Handout Problem Set 1: Financial Ratios 17

18 Appendix: The income statement some definitions revenue is income from sales (gross revenue) minus cost associated with things like returned or undeliverable merchandise (synonyms: sales, net sales, revenue, net revenue). cost are expenses directly related to creating the goods or services being sold (like the cost of raw materials, salaries of persons turning raw materials into sellable goods, depreciation of equipment); not included are expenses like R&D, marketing, and interest payments on debt. Synonyms: cost of sales, cost of goods sold (CoGS). Gross profit (synonym: sales profit) = sales revenue sales cost Operating expenses are expenses associated with running a business but not (necessarily) considered directly applicable to the current line of goods and services being sold. These include and Marketing, R & D, and General and Administrative costs (including the salaries of people working in these areas). Operating income = gross profit operating expenses. Operating income is the pre-tax, preinterest profit from the company's operations. Synonymous to EBIT, if the firm has no nonoperating income. Recurring income refers to a company s income by recurring activities and excludes the impact of transitory or random components which should not be regarded as components of permanent or sustainable income (unusual or infrequent items). Earnings (synonym: net income or profit) = total income minus total expenses. "Net income" is used for after-tax profit before paying dividends; this is the number that's carried to the top of the cash flow statement. Handout Problem Set 1: Financial Ratios 18
