Introduction to Balance Sheets and Income Statements: The balance sheet summarizes the financial position of an organization at a given moment, it is a snapshot of the firm. The balance sheet reflects the status of the organizations assets, (the economic resources owned by the organization), liabilities (debts owned to creditors), and equity (the owners investment in the organization).

As its name implies the balance sheet should indicate that these elements are in balance.
In contrast to the balance sheet, the income statement shows the organization's financial progress over a given period of time. The income statement is also based on equation: Revenues - Expenses = Profit (or Loss)
Revenues are the resources, primarily cash, coming into the organization as a result of goods sold or services rendered. Expenses are the resources used by the organization to provide goods or services. If revenues are greater than expenses, the business has realized a profit. If expenses exceed revenue the business has realized a loss from operations. As you read the following detailed descriptions of balance sheets and income statements, keep in mind that there is a direct and important relationship between the two. The profit (or loss) realized by a business over a period of time affects the amount of equity. Equity in a business comes from two sources: Direct investment by the owners and profits from business operations. Therefore, the bridge between the income statement and the balance sheet is in the relationship between equity and profit or loss.
Income Statements:
Exhibit 1 shows a sample income statement (see next page) for a period covering January 1 to December 31, 1989. The company in question earned revenues from two sources:
Net sales: All sources earned by the company from the sale of its products and services.
Other income: Generally resources from sources as interest on bank accounts, cash dividends from investments in other companies, and interest on bonds. Visit www.zbusinessblog.com and download file
Cost of goods sold: all the expenses incurred in making the products sold during the period, including the cost of materials, labor, and factory overhead (rent, utilities and maintenance).

Administrative and selling expenses: The costs of running and promoting the business, including items like the presidents salary, the salaries of all management personnel, advertising costs and sales commissions. Interest expenses: The interest that the company paid during the year on money that it borrowed.
Other Expenses: This would include any other unusual expenses incurred by the company to run the business not otherwise accounted for above (e.g. research and development expenses, and organizational costs).
Expenses are subtracted from revenues to yield a figure that indicates the companys earnings, but this figure still does not reflect the companys profit. During 1989 the company paid over 46 percent of its earnings to the tax department in the form of taxes. Thus, its net earnings, or the amount of profit the company earned in 1989, is LE 174, 243.

Balance sheets Exhibit 2 is the balance sheet for Company X as of December 31, 1989. The first component is assets, current and fixed. Current assets, are those the business expects to turn into cash during the next year. The cash generated from current assets is used to pay expenses and repay liabilities. Current assets include:

Cash. Marketable securities: Temporary investments (generally 90 days) of excess or idle cash; listed at cost, or market value since they are converted into cash within one year. Accounts Receivable: Money owned to the company by debtors, generally for the purchase of goods and services. Inventories: The value of products that have been completed and are in storage waiting to be sold (finished goods), products that have been partially completed (work in process), and raw materials. Prepaid Expenses: The value of items that the company has paid for in advance, such as insurance premiums.
Fixed assets are things of value that will provide benefits to the company for one or more years. Fixed assets are reported in three categories: land, buildings, machinery and equipment. Fixed assets are reported on the balance sheet at the cost to purchase or acquire the asset minus the depreciation accumulated on the assets since the time of purchase. Depreciation is the estimated decline in the useful value of an asset due to gradual wear and tear. Since this decline in value cannot be estimated with certainly, accountants use various standards methods to approximate it.

The second major section in a balance sheet is devoted to liabilities. Current liabilities are the debts that a company must pay off within the coming year:
Notes payable: Money owned to banks or other lending institutions; generally short-term loans (up to one year) used to finance short-term needs.
Accounts payable: Money owed to vendors for the purchase of goods and services. Payrolls and other accurables: Money owed to people for institutions that have performed services, including salaries owed to employees, salaries owed to employees on vacation, attorney fees, insurance premiums, and pension funds. Income taxes: Money owed to the Tax Department; may sometimes be deferred and paid later but must always be paid.

Long-term liabilities are obligations, usually loans, that are due to be paid not in the current year but in some future period. The amount specified in the balance sheet is equal to the total amount borrowed.
The final major section, the equity section summarizes the owners investment in the business. Individuals and institutions become owners of a company by purchasing shares of the companys stock. Equity increases as more people purchase stock and the company retains increased profit.
Each type of analysis of financial data has a purpose or use that determines the different relationships emphasized. Therefore, it is useful to classify ratios into four fundamental types:
Liquidity ratios, measure the firms ability to meet its maturing short-term obligations.
Leverage ratios, measure the extent to which the firm has been financed by debt. Activity ratios, measure how effectively the firm is using its resources. Profitability ratios, measure managements overall effectiveness as shown by the returns generated on sales and investment.
Liquidity Ratios Generally, the first concern of the financial analyst is liquidity. they measures the short-run solvency of a company its ability to meet current debts.
Current Ratio The current ratio indicates whether there are enough current assets to meet current liabilities. Current ratio = Current assets Current liabilities
Current assets normally include: Cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and inventories.
Current liabilities consist of: accounts payable, shortterm notes, payable, current maturities of long-term debt, accrued income taxes, and other accrued expenses (principally wages).
When is the company solvent? When the current ratio is 1.0 or greater; that is, the company should have more current assets than current liabilities. Method for Calculating the Current Ratio: Add cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, and inventories to get current assets.
Add notes payable, trade accounts payable, payrolls and other accurables and income taxes to get current liabilities. Divide the derived current assets figure by the calculated current liabilities figure.
You have now derived the current ratio. Now, compare the value derived to 1.0. If the current ratio is 1.0 or greater, the company should have more current assets than current liabilities and is financially viable or solvent. If the current ratio is less than 1.0, the company will have more current liabilities than current assets and is financially unviable or insolvent.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the current ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the current ratio is rising n an upward fashion, the company is becoming more financially viable. If the current ratio is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is becoming less financially viable.
One helpful activity is to also compare the current ratio of the company in question to the current ratio of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher current ratio on a regular basis over a number of years than this company is more financially viable. On the other hand, if the company in question has a lower current ratio on a regular basis over a number of years than this company is less financially viable.

b - Quick Ratio, or Acid Test The quick ratio is calculated by deducting inventory from current assets, and dividing the remainder by current liabilities. Inventories are deducted since they are typically the least liquid of a firms current assets. Quick ratio = Current assets - Inventory Current Liabilities
Visit www.zbusinessblog.com and download file
When is the company solvent? When the Quick ratio is 1.0 or greater.
Which liquidity ratio is more accurate, the current ratio or the quick ratio? The quick ratio, since it excludes inventory, the least liquid asset, and the asset on which losses are most likely to occur in the event of liquidation.
Method for Calculating the Quick Ratio: Add cash, marketable securities and accounts receivable (items 16, 17, & 18 on the sample balance sheet on page 6) to get quick assets (quick assets by definition is current assets inventory).
Add notes payable, trade accounts payable, payrolls and other accurables and income taxes (items 31, 32, 33 & 34 on the sample balance sheet on page 6) to get current liabilities. Divide the derived quick assets figure by the calculated current liabilities figure.
You have now derived the quick ratio. Now, compare the value derived to 1.0. If the quick ratio is 1.0 or greater, the company should have more quick assets than current liabilities and is financially viable or solvent. If the quick ratio is less than 1.0, the company will have more current liabilities than quick assets and is financially unviable or insolvent.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the quick ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the quick ratios is rising in an upward fashion, the company is becoming more financially viable. If the quick ratio is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is becoming less financially viable.
One helpful activity is to also compare the quick ratio of the company in question to the quick ratio of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher quick ratio on a regular basis over a number of years then this company is more financially viable.
Leverage Ratios Leverage ratios measure the funds supplied by owners as compared with the financing provided by the firms creditors.
Implications of leverage ratios: Equity, or owner-supplied funds, provide a margin of safety for creditors. Thus, the less equity, the more the risks of the enterprise to the creditors.
Debt funding enables the owners to maintain control of the firm with a limited investment. If the firm earns more on the borrowed funds than it pays in interest, the return to the owners is magnified. If the firm earns more on the borrowed funds than it pays in interest, the return to the owners is magnified.
Low leverage ratios: Indicate less risk of loss when the economy is in a downturn, but lower expected returns when the economy booms. High leverage ratios: indicate the risk of large losses, but also have a chance of gaining high profits.
Therefore, decisions about the use of leverage must balance higher expected returns against increased risk.
The debt ratio is the ratio of total debt to total assets and measures the percentage of total funds provided by creditors.
Debt ratio:
Method for Calculating the Debt Ratio: Add notes payable to long-term liabilities to get total debts.
Add cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses, land, buildings, machinery and equipment and subtract depreciation to derive the total assets figure. Divide the total debts figure by the calculated total assets figure.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous year (e.g. the debt ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the debt ratio is rising in an upward fashion, the company is developing a leverage problem. If the debt ratio is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is investing more of its own resources to generate assets and is becoming less dependent on debts.

One helpful activity is to also compare the debt ratio of the company in question to the debt ratio of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher debt ratio on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is over leveraged in comparison to its competitors. On the other hand, if the company in question has a lower debt ratio on a regular basis over a number of years, then this is less dependent on debt as a source of financing in comparison to its competitors.

B - Debt-to-Equity- Ratio: This ratio is a variation of the debt ratio that is commonly used. It compares the amount of money borrowed from creditors to the amount of shareholders investment made within a firm.
Method for Calculating the Debt-to-Equity Ratio: Add notes payable to long-term liabilities to get total debts.
Look up the shareholders investment or equity line item in the blance sheet.
Divide the total debts figure by the calculated shareholders investment figure.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the debt to equity ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the debt to equity ratio is rising in an upward fashion, the company is developing a leverage problem. If the debt ito equity ratio is falling and assuming a doward trend, the company is investing more of its owners resources to generate assets and is becoming less dependent on creditors.

One other helpful activity is to also compare the debt to equity ratio of the company in question to the debt equity ratio of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher debt to equity ratio on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is over leveraged in comparison to its competitors. On the other hand, if the company in question has lower debt to equity ratio on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is less dependent on debt as a source of financing in comparison to its competitors.

Profitability ratios Profitability ratios indicate how successful a company really is and how effective management is in operating the business.
A - Return on assets This ratio shows how much money the company earned on each dollar it invested in assets. It is a measure of overall company earning power or profitability.
Derive the net earnings, or net profit figure from the income statement. Net earnings is simply total revenues minus total expenses.
Add cash, marketable securities, accounts receivable, inventories, prepaid expenses, land, buildings, machinery and equipment and subtract depreciation to derive the total assets figure.
Divide the net earnings figure by the derived total assets figure to get return on assets.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the return on assets ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the return on assets ratio is rising in an upward fashion, the company is making a larger return on funds invested in assets. If the return on assets ratio is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is making a lower return on funds invested in assets.

One other helpful activity is to also compare the return on assets ratio of the company in question to the return on assets of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher ROA on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is financially better off in comparison to its competitors. On the other hand, if the company in question has a lower ROA on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is financially worse off in comparison to its competitors.

B - Profit Margin:
The profit margin is a ratio that shows the relationship between net earnings and net sales and indicates how much profit the company is earning on each dollar in sales. Profit Margin = Net Earnings Net Sales
Derive the net earnings, or net profit figure from the income statement. Net earnings is simply total revenues minus total expenses.
Derive the net sales line item from the income statement.
Divided the net earnings figure by the derived net sales figure to get the profit margin.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the profit margin ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the profit margin ratio is rising in an upward fashion, the company is making a larger return on sales. If the profit margin is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is making a lower return on sales.

One other helpful activity is to also compare the profit margin of the company in question to the profit margin of similar competing companies. If the company in question has a higher profit margin on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is making a larger return on sales in comparison to its competitors. On the other hand, if the company in question has a lower profit margin on a regular basis over a number of years, then this company is making a lower return on sales in comparison to its competitors.

C - Return on equity (or return on net worth) This ratio indicates the amount of net earnings resulting from investments in equity. Shareholders are particularly interested in this ratio, because it shows them how much they are earning on their investments. Return on equity = Net Earnings Shareholders investment (Equity)
Visit www.zbusinessblog.com and download file
Derive the net earnings, or net profit figure from the income statement. Net earnings is simply total revenues minus total expenses.
Lookup the shareholders investment or equity line item in the balance sheet.
Divide the net earnings figure by the derived shareholders investment figure to get return on equity.
For significance this ratio should be compared to previous years (e.g. the return on equity ratio for five previous years should be derived). This is necessary in order to derive a trend. If the return on equity ratio is rising in an upward fashion, the company is making a larger return on funds invested by shareholders. If the return on equity is falling and assuming a downward trend, the company is making a lower return on funds invested by shareholders.

Activity ratios
Activity ratios measures how effectively the firm employs its resources. These ratios involve comparisons between the level of sales and the investment in various asset accounts, like inventories and accounts receivable.
A - Inventory turnover
Inventory turnover tells us how many times during the year the entire stock of inventory was sold. Inventory turnover is calculated as follows: Inventory turnover = Sales Inventory
Visit www.zbusinessblog.com and download file
Method for calculating the inventory turnover ratio: Derive the net sales line item from the income statement.
Derive the inventory valuation figure from the balance sheet. Divide the sales figure by the derived inventory figure to get the inventory turnover.
Visit www.zbusinessblog.com and download file
Sales are at market prices. If inventories are carried at cost, as they generally are, it is more appropriate to use cost of goods sold in place of sales in the numerator of the formula. Sales occur over the entire year, whereas the inventory figure is for one point in time. This makes it better to use an average inventory, computed by adding beginning and ending inventories and dividing by 2.

B - Average collection period: The average collection period indicates how quickly the company collects its accounts receivable.
Annual sales (derived from the income statement) are divided by 365 to get average daily sales. Accounts receivable (derived from the balance sheet) are divided over daily sales to find the number of days sales is tied up in receivables.
The average collection period represents the average length of time the firm must wait to receive cash after making a sale and is mathematically defined as follows: Average collection period = Accounts receivables Sales/365 days
Evaluation of this ratio is based upon the terms on which the firm sells its goods. For example, if the collection period over the past few years for a given company is lengthy while its credit policy did not change, this would be evidence that steps should be taken to expedite the collection of accounts receivable.
