  3. Predictive Analysis Finance is the tool to measure Marketing, Operations and People • How does Inventory impact on Cash Flow? • What are the implications of lead times on Cash Flow? • How do I pay bonuses? For Example:-

  4. Predictive Analysis • What is more important • the Profit and Loss? • or the Balance Sheet?

  5. Predictive Analysis • Profitability • Also known as return on sales (ROS) • Calculated as Profit/Sales as a % • The definition of profit is the critical issue • The calculation should be based on profit before interest and tax

  6. Predictive Analysis • Profitability cont: • Profit before interest and tax (PBIT) or (EBIT) is the operating profit • Profitability should be calculated before the effects of the business’s external funding • Profitability should also exclude abnormal or extraordinary items • What about tax? Is it an operating cost?

  7. Predictive Analysis Profitability cont: • Advantages • Simple • Commonly used • Disadvantages • Ignores the balance sheet • Relatively easy to manipulate • Short term measure

  8. Predictive Analysis • Activity • Activity is Sales/Net Operating Assets • The key word is Operating • Also known as Asset Turnover

  9. Predictive Analysis • Activity • Activity indicates the level of balance sheet efficiency. • If a company has an activity of 4, this indicates that for every $4 of sales generated, a $1 of Net assets is required.

  10. Predictive Analysis • Take two businesses • Company A is a Supermarket • Company B builds Ships • A has Net operating assets of 200,000 and makes a profit of 20,000 on sales of $2,000,000 • B has Net operating assets of 1,000,000 and makes a profit of 100,000 on sales of $2,000,000

  11. Predictive Analysis • Which business would you rather be in? • A has low profitability and high activity • B has low activity and high profitability • What if we combine the two ratios?

  12. ROCE Flowchart - = Rev Cogs O/hds EBIT Profitability Rev ROCE % Curr Assets Curr Liabs Non Curr Net Op Assets = + + Activity

  13. Predictive Analysis • ROCE = Profitability x Activity • ROCE = EBIT/Sales x Sales/Net Operating Assets • ROCE = EBIT/Net Operating Assets • ROCE is also known as RONA

  14. Predictive Analysis Net Operating Assets Funding (E +ND) Cost Earnings

  15. Predictive Analysis Example:ROCEvs.Interest rate Company C has the following balance sheet C borrows at 10% and has a ROCE of 8% Equity+Net debt= Net operating assets 1,000+7,000= 8,000 Interest, 700 EBIT, 640 Providing a Loss of 60 !

  16. Predictive Analysis • The company has the following choices: • Refinance at less than 8% • Increase profit to over $700 • Sell off any unused assets • Put in equity • If the owner puts in equity, have they made a good investment ?

  17. Predictive Analysis • An indicative ROCE is therefore at least equal to the cost of borrowed funds • Advantages • Combines the P&L and Balance sheet into one measure • Simple • Comparable across businesses • Guide for investment decisions • Widely used

  18. Predictive Analysis • Disadvantages • Short term measure • Manipulable • Doesn’t encourage long term decision making • Ignores the impact of funding on the business • Lack of a definitive method for calculating • Ignores the effect of tax • Ignores the time value of money

  19. Predictive Analysis • Balance Sheet • Inventory • Accounts Receivable • Accounts Payable • Fixed Assets • Other

  20. Conclusion • What should all companies be performing on • an ongoing basis? • What if Analysis – I.e. ‘What if my Days Receivable were to be reduced from 70 to 55 days?’ • Goalseeking – I.e. ‘How can I reduce my Cash Flow from -$300,000 to zero?’ • Variance Analysis – compare performance, and analyse growth over two years • Communicate Finance to non Financial people • Compare one business outcome to another • Projection
