Profitability ratios express:

• Profit Margin or Return on Sales  (%) — what

fraction of sales goes to the ―bottom line.‖ 

• Return on Assets or Return on I nvestment  

(%) — what percent are we earning on the

assets we have invested in the firm.

• Return on Equi ty  (%) — probably of most

interest to shareholders

Table 3-2 (Page 58) illustrates a very

important pointIN ORDER TO PROPERLY

INTERPRET A RATIO, WE MUST

KNOW WHAT THE COMPANY IS

TRYING TO ACCOMPLISH.

Ratios are a diagnostic tool that tells uswhether we are properly executing our

plan.

Asset Utilization ratios express:

 –  Receivables Turnover  (times) — In a 360 day year, how

many times do our receivables turn over in terms of

sales.

 –  Average Collection Per iod  (days) — the inverse of

receivables turnover.

 –  I nventory Turnover  (times) — how many times must we

replenish inventory to achieve this level of sales — often,

COGS is used instead of sales.

 –  F ixed Asset Turnover  (times) — how many times wouldour fixed assets turnover to represent this level of sales.

 –  Total Asset Turnover  (times) — this is a combination of

the above ratios.

• Fixed Charge Coverage (times) — income before

fixed charges and taxes divided by fixed charges

(Fixed Charges = lease payments, i

expense)

Which ratio is most important?

It depends on your perspective.

• Suppliers and banks (lenders) are most

interested in liquidity ratios.• Stockholders are most interested in

profitability ratios.

• A long-run trend analysis over a 5-10year period is usually performed by an

analyst.

Replacement cost:

• Reduces income

• Increases assets

Debt-to-asset ratio is lowered sincedebt does not inflate.

• Declining income causes interest

coverage ratio to decline.

• Return on assets drops because assets

increase while net income drops.

Here is why the aggressive income ishigher:

• Company B used aggressive revenue

recognition (booking installment sales

immediately, etc.)

• Company B is using FIFO, matching cheapcosts with current revenue.

• Company B chose not to recognize the

extraordinary (nonrecurring) loss on thestatement until AFTER net-income is

computed.
