The Calculation And Interpretation Of Accounting Ratios

Akopọ

Two businesses can report the exact same profit for the year and still be in completely different financial health. One might be thriving, the other might be weeks away from being unable to pay its suppliers. A single profit figure cannot tell that story on its own; ratios can.

In this lesson you will learn the difference between profitability and liquidity, how to calculate and interpret the three profitability ratios and two liquidity ratios in the 4AC1 specification, and how to read a change in a ratio as evidence about what is actually happening inside a business.

Awọn Afojusun

  1. Explain the difference between profitability and liquidity
  2. Calculate and interpret the following profitability ratios: gross profit percentage, profit for the year as a percentage of revenue, return on capital employed
  3. Calculate and interpret the following liquidity ratios: current (working capital) ratio, liquid (acid test) ratio

Akọ̀wé Ẹ̀kọ́

A set of financial statements is dense with figures, but on its own a single number rarely means much. Is $24,000 profit good? It depends entirely on how much revenue it took to earn it, how much capital was tied up in the business, and whether the business has enough cash and near-cash assets to survive next month. Ratios turn raw figures from the income statement and statement of financial position into comparisons that actually mean something, this year against last year, one business against another, or a business against its own targets.
