Statements in Comparative and Common-Size Form
Dollar and percentage changes on statements Analytical techniques used to examine relationships among financial statement items Common-size statements Ratios

Dollar and Percentage Changes on Statements
Comparing statements underscores movements and trends and may provide valuable clues about what to expect in the future. Horizontal analysis Trend analysis
6
Horizontal Analysis Horizontal analysis shows the changes between years in the financial data in both dollar and percentage form.
7
Horizontal Analysis Example
The following slides illustrate a horizontal analysis of Clover Corporation’s December 31, 2004 and 2003 comparative balance sheets and comparative income statements.

Horizontal Analysis

Horizontal Analysis Calculating Change in Dollar Amounts Dollar Change
Current Year Figure Base Year Figure = – The dollar amounts for 2003 become the “base” year figures.
10
Calculating Change as a Percentage
Horizontal Analysis Calculating Change as a Percentage Percentage Change Dollar Change Base Year Figure × = 100%
11
Horizontal Analysis $12,000 – $23,500 = $(11,500)
($11,500 ÷ $23,500) × 100% = 48.9%
12
Horizontal Analysis
13
Horizontal Analysis We could do this for the liabilities & stockholders’ equity, but now let’s look at the income statement accounts.
14
Horizontal Analysis
15
Sales increased by 8.3% yet net income decreased by 21.9%.
Horizontal Analysis Sales increased by 8.3% yet net income decreased by 21.9%.
16
Horizontal Analysis There were increases in both cost of goods sold (14.3%) and operating expenses (2.1%). These increased costs more than offset the increase in sales, yielding an overall decrease in net income.
17
Trend Percentages Trend percentages state several years’ financial data in terms of a base year, which equals 100 percent.
18
Trend Analysis × Trend Percentage Current Year Amount Base Year Amount
100% = ×
19
Trend Analysis Example
Look at the income information for Berry Products for the years 2000 through We will do a trend analysis on these amounts to see what we can learn about the company.
20
For the Years Ended December 31
Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 The base year is 2000, and its amounts will equal 100%.
21
For the Years Ended December 31
Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 2001 Amount ÷ 2000 Amount × 100% ( $290,000 ÷ $275,000 ) × 100% = 105% ( $198,000 ÷ $190,000 ) × 100% = 104% ( $ 92,000 ÷ $ 85,000 ) × 100% = 108%
22
For the Years Ended December 31
Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 By analyzing the trends for Berry Products, we can see that cost of goods sold is increasing faster than sales, which is slowing the increase in gross margin.
23
Trend Analysis We can use the trend percentages to construct a graph so we can see the trend over time.

Common-Size Statements
Common-size statements use percentages to express the relationship of individual components to a total within a single period. This is also known as vertical analysis.
25
Common-Size Statements
Example Let’s take another look at the information from the comparative income statements of Clover Corporation for 2004 and 2003. This time let’s prepare common-size statements.
26
Common-Size Statements
Net sales is usually the base and is expressed as 100%.
27
Common-Size Statements
2004 Cost ÷ 2004 Sales × 100% ( $360,000 ÷ $520,000 ) × 100% = 69.2% 2003 Cost ÷ 2003 Sales × 100% ( $315,000 ÷ $480,000 ) × 100% = 65.6%
28
Gross Margin Percentage
Sales = This measure indicates how much of each sales dollar is left after deducting the cost of goods sold to cover expenses and a profit.
29
Common-Size Statements
What conclusions can we draw?
