  2. Limitations of Financial Statement Analysis Differences in accounting methods between companies sometimes make comparisons difficult. We use the LIFO method to value inventory. We use the FIFO method to value inventory.

  3. Changes within the firm • Industry trends • Consumer tastes • Technological changes • Economic factors Limitations of Financial Statement Analysis Analysts should look beyond the ratios.

  4. Statements in Comparative and Common-Size Form • Dollar and percentage • changes on statements Analytical techniques used to examine relationships among financial statement items • Common-size • statements • Ratios

  5. Dollar and Percentage Changes on Statements Comparing statements underscores movements and trends and may provide valuable clues about what to expect in the future. Trend analysis Horizontal analysis

  6. Horizontal Analysis Horizontal analysis shows the changes between years in the financial data in both dollar and percentage form.

  7. Horizontal Analysis Example The following slides illustrate a horizontal analysis of Clover Corporation’s December 31, 2004 and 2003 comparative balance sheets and comparative income statements.

  8. Horizontal Analysis

  9. Horizontal Analysis Calculating Change in Dollar Amounts Dollar Change Current Year Figure Base Year Figure = – The dollar amounts for 2003 become the “base” year figures.

  10. Horizontal Analysis Calculating Change as a Percentage Percentage Change Dollar Change Base Year Figure × 100% =

  11. Horizontal Analysis $12,000 – $23,500 = $(11,500) ($11,500 ÷ $23,500) × 100% = 48.9%

  12. Horizontal Analysis

  13. Horizontal Analysis We could do this for the liabilities & stockholders’ equity, but now let’s look at the income statement accounts.

  14. Horizontal Analysis

  15. Horizontal Analysis Sales increased by 8.3% yet net income decreased by 21.9%.

  16. Horizontal Analysis There were increases in both cost of goods sold (14.3%) and operating expenses (2.1%). These increased costs more than offset the increase in sales, yielding an overall decrease in net income.

  17. Trend Percentages Trend percentages state several years’ financial data in terms of abase year, which equals 100 percent.

  18. Trend Percentage Current Year Amount Base Year Amount × 100% = Trend Analysis

  19. Trend Analysis Example Look at the income information for Berry Products for the years 2000 through 2004. We will do a trend analysis on these amounts to see what we can learn about the company.

  20. Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 The base year is 2000, and its amounts will equal 100%.

  21. Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 2001 Amount ÷ 2000 Amount × 100% ( $290,000 ÷ $275,000 ) × 100% = 105% ( $198,000 ÷ $190,000 ) × 100% = 104% ( $ 92,000 ÷ $ 85,000 ) × 100% = 108%

  22. Trend Analysis Berry Products Income Information For the Years Ended December 31 By analyzing the trends for Berry Products, we can see that cost of goods sold is increasing faster than sales, which is slowing the increase in gross margin.

  23. Trend Analysis We can use the trend percentages to construct a graph so we can see the trend over time.

  24. Common-Size Statements Common-size statements use percentages to express the relationship of individual components to a total within a single period. This is also known as vertical analysis.

  25. Common-Size Statements Example Let’s take another look at the information from the comparative income statements of Clover Corporation for 2004 and 2003. This time let’s prepare common-size statements.

  26. Common-Size Statements Net sales is usually the base and is expressed as 100%.

  27. Common-Size Statements 2004 Cost ÷ 2004 Sales × 100% ( $360,000 ÷ $520,000 ) × 100% = 69.2% 2003 Cost ÷ 2003 Sales × 100% ( $315,000 ÷ $480,000 ) × 100% = 65.6%

  28. Gross Margin Percentage Gross Margin Sales = Gross Margin Percentage This measure indicates how much of each sales dollar is left after deducting the cost of goods sold to cover expenses and a profit.

  29. Common-Size Statements What conclusions can we draw?

  30. Quick Check  • Which of the following statements describes horizontal analysis? a. A statement that shows items appearing on it in percentage and dollar form. b. A side-by-side comparison of two or more years’ financial statements. c. A comparison of the account balances on the current year’s financial statements. d. None of the above.

  36. Net Income – Preferred Dividends Average Number of Common Shares Outstanding Earnings per Share = $53,690 – 0 (17,000 + 27,400)/2 Earnings per Share = = $2.42 Earnings Per Share This measure indicates how much income was earned for each share of common stock outstanding.

  37. Price-Earnings Ratio Market Price Per Share Earnings Per Share = Price-Earnings Ratio $20.00 $2.42 = = 8.26 times Price-Earnings Ratio This measure is often used by investors as a general guideline in gauging stock values. Generally, the higher the price-earnings ratio, the more opportunity a company has for growth.

  38. Dividend Payout Ratio Dividends Per Share Earnings Per Share = Dividend Payout Ratio $2.00 $2.42 = = 82.6% Dividend Payout Ratio This ratio gauges the portion of current earnings being paid out in dividends. Investors seeking current income would like this ratio to be large.

  40. Return on Total Assets Net Income + [Interest Expense × (1 – Tax Rate)] Average Total Assets = Return on Total Assets $53,690 +[7,300 × (1 – .30)] ($300,000 + $346,390) ÷ 2 = = 18.19% Return on Total Assets This ratio measures how well assets have been employed.

  41. Return on Common Stockholders’ Equity Net Income – Preferred Dividends AverageStockholders’ Equity = Return on Common Stockholders’ Equity $53,690 – 0 ($180,000 + $234,390) ÷ 2 = = 25.91% Return on Common Stockholders’ Equity This measure indicates how well the company employed the owners’ investments to earn income.
