2. 2 Introduction Interpretation is when users evaluate financial information to make judgements It is the key to any in-depth understanding of an organisation’s performance. Basically, the users evaluate an organisation’s performance and financial position using the information from INCOME STATEMENT and BALANCE SHEET. The value of the analysis is depends on the value of the financial statements.

3. 3 Techniques (types) of analysis: 1.HorizontalAnalysis Comparing key figures in financial statement Evaluates a series of financial statement over a period of time. 2. Vertical Analysis Evaluates financial statement by expressing each item in a financial statement as a percent of the base amount (key figure) Key-figure (such as sales in IS and total assets on BS) are set to 100% Other items are then expressed as percentage of 100

4. 4 Techniques (types) of analysis: (cont.) 3. Trend analysis Similar to horizontal analysis, except that the first set of account in the series is given a base of 100 4. Ratio Analysis It expresses the relationship among selected items of financial statement data.

5. 5 Horizontal Analysis It’s an analysis of the percentage increases and decreases of related items in comparative financial statements. What is horizontal analysis?

13. 13 Vertical Analysis A percentage analysis can be used to show the relationship of each component to a total within a single statement.

14. 14 Vertical Analysis The total, or 100% item, on the balance sheet is “total assets.” The total, or 100% item, on the income statement is “total sales.”

30. Aid for comparisonsRatio provide benchmark to compare on company with another (inter-firm comparison) or to compare the same company over period of time (intra-firm comparison).

33. It measures the profitability from the shareholder view point.

34. It shows how many ringgit of the net income were earned for each ringgit invested by the owner. = Profit or earning after tax x 100% Average capital employed

36. 32 LIQUIDITY RATIO It measure the short term ability of the organisation to pay debt and to meet unexpected need for cash. i. Current Ratio To measure the ability of current asset that the company have to pay back the short term debt. = Current Asset Current Liability

39. 35 Generally the higher the ratio, the greater the financial stability and the lower the risk for both creditors and owners. However, the ratio should not be too high because that may indicate that the business is not reinvesting in long-term assets to maintain future productivity. High current ratio can actually indicate problems if inventories are getting larger than they should be or collections of receivables are slowing down.

40. 36 EFFICIENCY RATIO Debtors turnover Measures how many times it takes customers to pay Credit sales Average debtors

41. 37 EFFICIENCY RATIO 1. Debtors collection period Measures how long it takes customers to pay = Average debtors x 365 days OR365 days Credit salesdebtors turnover This ratio indicates how many days it takes, on average to collect a day’s sale revenue. The quicker a business collects and bank the money, the better it is to the company Large numbers of days is a negative signal, raising questions about the company’s policies of granting credit such as; Unrestricted credit policies Longer credit limit Collection attempts is not very strength

42. 38 Efficiency Ratio 3. Stock turnover ratio measures how quickly stock moves through business This ratio means that the average length of time that the stocks are held before being sold. = Cost of goods sold Average stock It can also be calculated in days = Average stock x 365 days OR 365 days Cost of goods sold stock turnover

44. Measures how efficient the assets in generating sales= Sales x 100% Average total assets

45. 40 SOLVENCY/FINANCIAL LEVERAGE MANAGEMENT RATIO 1. Debt to Equity ratio = Total liabilities Total Equity 2. Debt ratio Also call debt to assets ratio = Total liabilities Total Asset

54. 49 Limitations of the Accounting Information Estimates The financial statement contains numerous estimates. Eg. Provision for doubtful debt, depreciation and contingent loss. Cost The traditional financial statements are based on historical cost, it is not adjusted for price-level change. Eg. Inflation affects the sales growth. Alternative Accounting Method A comparison may be misleading as different companies use different accounting method. Eg. FIFO and LIFO. Diversification of firms This diversification of activities of companies limit the usefulness of financial analysis. (no specific industry).

56. Ratio analysis must be compared with past result or industry norms, not in isolation

57. Things to be taken into account in using ratio analysis:

58. size of the organisation

59. Method used in accounting treatment

60. Same industry

61. Same country
