4. 4 Analytical Objectives Common-Size Financial Statements Ratio Analysis Financial Statement Analysis is the examination of both the relationships among financial statement numbers and the trends of those numbers over time. Major Tools Include

5. 5 Framework for Financial Statement Analysis Common-Size Financial Statements: Analysis of a company’s single-year financial statements. Financial statements are standardized by a measure of size, either sales or total assets. All amounts are stated in terms of a percentage of the size measure. Ratio Analysis: Analysis of a company’s financial statements by computing ratios and comparing them against both trends and industry averages.

6. 6 Comparisons Between Financial Statements Are Most Useful:  When the presentations are in good form.  When the content of the statements is identical.  When accounting principles are not changed, or, if they are changed, the financial effects of the changes are disclosed.  When changes in circumstances or in the nature of the underlying transactions are disclosed.

7. 7 Common-Size Income Statement For common- size income statements, the denominator, the entire pie, is equal to net sales. 100% = Net Sales

9. 9 Common-Size Balance Sheet For common- size balance sheets, the denominator, the entire pie, is equal to the total assets for the year. 100% = Total Assets

11. 11 Ratio Analysis DuPont Framework: Identifying factors that impact return on equity. Efficiency Ratios: How efficiently is the firm utilizing its assets? Leverage Ratios: To what degree is the company using other people’s money to purchase assets? Other Financial Ratios: Other indications of liquidity, cash management, and profitability.

12. 12 DuPont Framework The DuPont framework was named after a system of ratio analysis developed by DuPont around 1920.

13. 13 Analysis of ROE Using the DuPont Framework Return on Equity: ProfitabilityxEfficiencyxLeverage Return on xAssetxAssets-to- SalesTurnoverEquity Ratio Net IncomexSalesxAssets SalesAssetsEquity

14. 14 Efficiency Ratios Accounts receivable turnover: Sales Average accounts receivable Average collection period: Average accounts receivable Average daily sales Inventory turnover: Cost of goods sold Average inventoryContinuedContinued

15. 15 Efficiency Ratios Number of days’ sales in inventory: Average inventory Average daily cost of goods sold Fixed asset turnover: Sales Average fixed assets

16. 16 Leverage Ratios More borrowing means that more assets can be purchased without any additional equity investment by owners. More assets means that more sales can be generated. More sales means that net income should increase. Higher leverage increases return on equity through the following chain of events:

17. 17 Leverage Ratios Debt ratio: Total liabilities Total assets Debt-to-equity ratio: Total liabilities Total equity Times interest earned: Earnings before interest and taxes Interest expense

18. 18 Other Common Ratios Current ratio: Current assets Current liabilities Historically, the rule of thumb was to have a current ratio of at least 2.0.

19. 19 Other Common Ratios Current ratio: Current assets Current liabilities Advances in information technology have allowed successful firms to reduce this ratio to below 1.0.

20. 20 Cash flow adequacy ratio: Cash flow from operating activities Total primary cash requirements Other Common Ratios The sum of dividend payments, long-term asset purchases, and long-term debt repayments.

21. 21 Book-to-market ratio: Stockholders’ equity Market value of shares outstanding Earnings per share: Net income Weighted-number of share outstanding Dividend payout ratio: Cash dividends Net income Price-earnings ratio: Market price per share Earnings per share Other Common Ratios

31. 31 Foreign Currency Financial Statements Translation: Used when the foreign subsidiary is a relatively self-contained unit that is independent from the parent company’s operations. Remeasurement: Is appropriate when the subsidiary does not operate independently of the parent company. Functional currency: Currency of the primary economic environment of an entity.
