a. 0uic" ratio - &n#entories are generally the least liquid of a fir 1s current assets. -urther, in#entory is the current asset for which !oo" #alues are the least relia!le easures of ar"et #alue. &n practical ter s, what this eans is that if the fir ust sell in#entory to pay upco ing !ills, the fir is ost li"ely to ha#e to discount in#entory ite s in order to liquidate the , and so therefore they are the assets on which losses are ost li"ely to occur. )herefore, the quic" (or acid-test$ ratio easures a fir 1s a!ility to pay off short-ter o!ligations without relying on in#entory sales. )he quic" ratio easures the dollars of ore liquid assets (cash and ar"eta!le securities and accounts recei#a!le$ a#aila!le to pay each dollar of current lia!ilities. !. (#erage collection period - )he a#erage collection period ((C2$ easures the nu !er of days accounts recei#a!le are held !efore the fir collects cash fro the sale. &n general, a fir wants to produce a high le#el of sales per dollar of accounts recei#a!le, i.e., it wants to collect its accounts recei#a!le as quic"ly as possi!le to reduce any cost of financing in#entories and accounts recei#a!le, including interest e/pense on lia!ilities used to finance in#entories and accounts recei#a!le, and defaults associated with accounts recei#a!le.

c. 'eturn on equity - 'eturn on equity ('3*$ easures the return on the co on stoc"holders1 in#est ent in the assets of the fir . '3* is the net inco e earned per dollar of co on stoc"holders1 equity. )he #alue of a fir 1s '3* is affected not only !y net inco e, !ut also !y the a ount of financial le#erage or de!t that fir uses. d. 4ays1 sales in in#entory - . )he days sa es in in!ento"y ratio easures the nu !er of days that in#entory is held !efore the final product is sold. &n general, a fir wants to produce a high le#el of sales per dollar of in#entory, that is, it wants to turn in#entory o#er (fro raw aterials to finished goods to sold goods$ as quic"ly as possi!le. ( high le#el of sales per dollar of in#entory i plies reduced warehousing, onitoring, insurance, and any other costs of ser#icing the in#entory. So, a high in#entory turno#er ratio or a low days1 sales in in#entory is a sign of good anage ent. e. 4e!t ratio - )he de!t ratio easures the percentage of total assets financed with de!t. )he de!t-to-equity ratio easures the dollars of de!t financing used for e#ery dollar of equity financing. )he equity ultiplier ratio easures the dollars of assets on the !alance sheet for e#ery dollar of equity financing. (s you ight suspect, all three easures are related. So, the lower the de!t, de!t-to-equity, or equity ultiplier ratios, the less de!t and ore equity the fir uses to finance its assets (i.e., the !igger the fir 1s equity cushion$. f. 2rofit argin - )he profit argin is the percent of sales left after all fir e/penses are paid.

g. (ccounts paya!le turno#er - )he accounts paya!le turno#er ratio easures the dollar cost of goods sold per dollar of accounts paya!le. &n general, a fir wants to pay for its purchases as slowly as possi!le. )he ore slowly it can pay for its supply purchases, the less the fir will need other costly sources of financing such as notes paya!le or long-ter de!t. )hus, a high (22 or a low accounts paya!le turno#er ratio is generally a sign of good anage ent. h. 5ar"et-to-!oo" ratio - )he ar"et-to-!oo" ratio co pares the ar"et (current$ #alue of the fir 1s equity to their historical costs. &n general, the higher the ar"et-to-!oo" ratio, the !etter the fir .

Stoc"holders are entitled to any residual cash flows<those left after

de!tholders are paid. 9hen a fir does well, financial le#erage increases the reward to shareholders since the a ount of cash flows pro ised to de!tholders is constant and capped. So when fir s do well, financial le#erage creates ore cash flows to share with stoc"holders=it agnifies the return to the stoc"holders of the fir . )his agnification is one reason that fir stoc"holders encourage the use of de!t financing. >owe#er, financial le#erage also increases the fir 1s potential for financial distress and e#en failure. &f the fir has a !ad year and can not a"e pro ised de!t pay ents, de!tholders can force the fir into !an"ruptcy. )hus, a fir 1s current and potential de!tholders (and e#en stoc"holders$ loo" at equity financing as a safety cushion that can a!sor! fluctuations in the fir 1s earnings and asset #alues and guarantee de!t ser#ice pay ents. Clearly, the larger the fluctuations or #aria!ility of a fir 1s cash flows, the greater the need for an equity cushion. 5anagers1 choice of capital structure<the a ount of de!t #ersus equity to issue<affects the fir 1s #ia!ility as a long-ter entity. &n deciding the le#el of de!t #ersus equity financing to hold on the !alance sheet, anagers ust consider the trade-off !etween a/i i?ing cash flows to the fir 1s stoc"holders #ersus the ris" of !eing una!le to a"e pro ised de!t pay ents.

LG; @. 9hy is the 4u2ont syste of analysis an i portant tool when e#aluating fir perfor ance8

5any of the ratios discussed in the chapter are interrelated. So a change in one ratio ay well affect the #alue of se#eral ratios. 3ften these interrelations can help e#aluate fir perfor ance. 5anagers and in#estors often perfor a detailed analysis of '3( ('eturn on (ssets$ and '3* ('eturn on *quity$ using the 4u2ont analysis syste . 2opulari?ed !y the 4u2ont Corporation, the 4u2ont analysis syste uses the !alance sheet and inco e state ent to !rea" the '3( and '3* ratios into co ponent pieces.

Cornett, Adair, and Nofsinger

)he internal growth rate is the growth rate a fir can sustain if it uses only internal financing=that is, retained earnings=to finance future growth. ( pro!le arises when a fir relies only on internal financing to support asset growthC )hrough ti e, its de!t ratio will fall !ecause as asset #alues grow, total de!t stays constant=only retained earnings finance asset growth. &f total de!t re ains constant, as assets grow the de!t ratio decreases. (s we noted a!o#e shareholders often !eco e disgruntled if, as the fir grows, a decreasing de!t ratio (increasing equity financing$ dilutes their return. So as fir s grow, anagers ust often try to aintain a de!t ratio that they #iew as opti al. &n this case, anagers finance asset growth with new de!t and retained earnings. )he a/i u growth rate that can !e achie#ed this way is the sustaina!le growth rate. LG@ 17. 9hat is the difference !etween ti e series analysis and cross-sectional analysis8 )i e series analysis e#aluates the perfor ance of the fir o#er ti e.

Loo"ing at one fir 1s financial ratios, e#en through ti e, gi#e anagers, analysts, and in#estors only a li ited picture of fir perfor ance. 'atio analysis al ost always includes a co parison of one fir 1s ratios relati#e to the ratios of other fir s in the industry, or cross-sectional analysis. Dey to cross-sectional analysis is identifying si ilar fir s in that they co pete in the sa e ar"ets, ha#e si ilar assets si?es, and operate in a si ilar anner to the fir !eing analy?ed.
