Interpretation Of Accounting Ratios
Bayani Gaba-gaba
Calculating a ratio is only half the job. A gross margin of 18% means nothing until you ask whether it has risen or fallen, why it moved, and what the owner should do about it. Interpretation is where the figures start to tell a story: a falling profit margin warns of creeping expenses, a current ratio that climbs too high hints at cash sitting idle, and a slowing inventory turnover may signal goods that are not selling.
In this lesson you will learn to read each ratio, compare results across years, and explain the likely causes of a change. You will also learn to make sensible recommendations for improving profitability, liquidity and working capital, and to understand why a profitable business can still run short of cash. These are the explanation skills that turn a correct calculation into full marks on Cambridge analysis questions.
