Electronics
LG Electronics brand recognition in the global consumer electronics market has increased
exponentially in the past two years. The company successfully achieved Global Top 3 status in
almost every business area in the first quarter of this year. Much of this success can be attributed to
LG Electronics commitment to drive Innovation and Globalization.
LG Electronics is re-inventing its global procurement organization from highly decentralized to
center-led, establishing streamline procurement leadership across five business units (companies)
and eight regions. LGEs procurement is currently comprised of 2,200 staff who are part of an
84,000-strong workforce in 115 operations globally, managing US$26 billion direct spend and
US$10 billion general spend, led by Tom Linton, Executive Vice President and Chief Procurement
Officer. The profitability of LG Electronics is heavily dependent on procurements performance
and efficiency since its spend represents 80 percent of revenues. LG Electronics procurement is repositioning the organization to a new level while maintaining its focus on high quality
manufacturing and becoming a global top brand.
Industry Overview
Financial Accounting
LG Electronics
The consumer electronics market is ever evolving with new products being made available on a
frequent basis. Also, the evolution of existing products serves to re-invent what is an already fully
functional product and gives the consumer the feeling that new technology is the new norm. For
example, televisions are entering a new era with the unveiling of the new curved television which
gives the viewer a more immersive experience. This may re-invigorate what may be considered a
stagnating segment within the consumer electronics market and lead to an increase in revenues.
Another interesting development within the market is the re-introduction of game consoles in
China. In 2000, the Chinese government placed a ban on the sale of foreign game consoles due to
their perception on the effect they have on the mental health of young people. The ban was finally
lifted in 2014, which means that retailers have the opportunity to enter a market, which was not
previously an option and will also have an overall positive effect on the consumer electronics
market as a whole.
Online retailing is also a major trend, which is becoming more prevalent within the industry.
Consumer electronics were traditionally purchased within electrical retailer showrooms so that the
consumer would have the opportunity to try the product before purchase. However, some retailers
have struggled to close the deal with sites such as Amazon being able to offer the same product at
a significantly lower price. In recent years, traditional retailers have struggled with this threat of
competition and have led to them placing higher importance on their own online arm.
The global consumer electronics market had total revenues of $253.9bn in 2013, representing a
compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 0.8% between 2009 and 2013.The Eastern European
markets showed particularly strong growth with CAGRs of 8.5% in comparison to Western Europe
which showed strong decline with compound annual rates of change (CARCs) of -7.8% over the
same period. The United States had the largest consumer electronic retail market in the world with
revenues of $90.5bn in 2013.

Ratio Analysis
Liquidity Ratios:
Financial Accounting
LG Electronics
It is the ratio that measures a companys ability to fulfill its short-term debt obligations or the
ability of a company to pay off its short-term liability, if and when they take a fall.
In case of Liquidity Ration, higher the ratio, higher is the margin of safety to pay off its current
liabilities and other short-term borrowings. Liquidity ration greater than 1, signposts its sound
financial health.
The liquidity ratios are an outcome of dividing cash and other liquid assets (current assets) by the
short-term borrowings (current liabilities). They show the number of times the short-term debt
obligations are covered by the cash and liquid assets. If the value is superior to 1, it means the
short-term obligations are abundantly covered.
The most common Liquidity Ratios are Current Ratio and Acid Test Ratio/Quick Ratio. Short-term
creditors, bankers, government agencies, Bankruptcy analysts and mortgage originators are readily
using the aforementioned ratios. Using these ratios they analyze and forecast the financial
wellbeing of a company and determine their stand accordingly.
Current Ratio:
It is the ratio that measures a companys ability to meet its debts over the period of next 12
months, by comparing the companys current assets and current liabilities.

The current ratio shows the companys ability to pay back its short term liabilities with is available
assets. Higher the ratio better is the safety level and payback condition of the company. The above
ratios show the gradual increase but after 2011 it decreases which is not a good sign and show that
the companys capability has decreased. It is a negative sign.
Quick Ratio:
It is the ratio that indicates the companys ability to cover all its current liabilities using its current
or short-term assets, without selling its inventory. Ideally, the Quick Ratio should be 1:1, however,
it differs from sector to sector. Quick ratio specifies whether the assets that can be quickly
converted into cash are sufficient to cover current liabilities.
Quick Ratio = Liquid Assets / Liquid Liabilities

QUICK RATIO

LG
Electronics
Interpretation:
Quick ratio is of more impact than current ratio, as inventory may not be immediately converted
into cash. The decreasing quick ratio is not good for the company. If the liquid ratio is very less
than the current ratio than it means that the current asset are highly dependent on the inventory.
Turnover Ratios:
Turnover ratios are also acknowledged as activity or efficiency ratios. It often refers to the
companys ability to translate different accounts within their balance sheets into cash or sales.
Companies will normally try to turn their manufacture into cash or sales as fast as possible because
this will, in general, lead to greater revenues. Such ratios are frequently used when performing
fundamental analysis of the company.
There are various types of Turnover Ratios, namely: o Inventory turnover ratio
o Debtors turnover ratio
o Average collection period
o Total assets turnover ratio
o Fixed assets turnover ratio
