2. The current levels of most balance sheet items are optimal for the current sales level.
STEPS:
Identify assets and liabilities that vary spontaneously with sales

spontaneous liabilities and income retained from increase in total financing required (increase
in assets due to increase in sales).

Three techniques ire commonly used to make comparisons and to detect trends'.
• Peso and percentage changes in financial statement items.
• Common size statementc.

* Ratios.
,
B. Statements in Comparative and Common-Size Form. Two basic approaches are often used to
compare financial statements between companies or between different years for the same company:
hprizontaUtrendlanalysis and vertical (common-size) analysis.
--........
1. Horizontal Analysis; pesos and percentage changes on statements - the financial stat ,ments are
placed side-by-side. Two types of comparisons can then be made.
a. Trend percentages restate a time-series of financial data in terms of a 1year. Particularly
when plotted against time, this approach allows the analyst to quickly gauge the rate and
direction of changes.
b. The difference (increase or decrease) between two statements can be shown in separate
columns in both peso and percentage forms. Showing changes in peso form helps to zero in
on key factors that have material! . • :- -.3 • • .1,- - or financial position. Showing
changes in percentage form helps to gain a feel of how unusual the changes might be.
...........___...
2. Vertical Analysis; Common-size Statements. A common-size statement is one that shows each
item as • o - - . et (le of a tot. • Ii.,-r than i 0" • rm. These kinds of statements make it
much easier to compare firms of differen and t) track balance sheet and income statement

i
. When pr11'paring common-size statements for the balance 'sheet, the various items on the
balance s eet are typically stated as percentages of total assets.
b. When applying common-size techniques to the income statement, all items on he income
statement are usually stated as a percentage of total sales pesos. .
