Financial Management Financial Management is about preparing, directing and managing the money activities ofa company such as buying, selling and using money to its best results to maximize wealth or produce best value for money. Basically, it means applying general management concepts to the cash of the company. Pertaking a commercial business as the most common organizational structure, the key objectives of financial management would be to create wealth for the business, generate cash and provide an adequate return on investment bearing in mind the risks that the business is taking, and the resources invested ‘Personal finand®'s deals with an individuals’ decisions concerning the - spending and investing _of income, It includes the answers as to how much oftheir earnings should they spend, how much “should they save, and how should they invest their savings. Business finance involves same type of decisions focusing on_how: the firms raise. money. from investors, How to invest money to ear a profit, and hoi to reinvest profits in the business or distribute them back to investors. 7 rt Man: There are three key elements to the process of financial management. These are the financial planning, financial control and financial decision making. Thing penis 1. Financial Planning. Management need to ensure that enough funding is available at the right ws time to meet the needs of the business. In the short term, funding, may be needed to invest in equipment and stocks, pay employees and fund sales made on credit. In the medium and long term, funding may be required for significant additions to the productive capacity of the business or to make acquisitions. This links in with the financial decision-making Process and forecasting. . Financial control helps the business ensure that the objectives are being met. Financial control determines if assets are secured and_being used efficiently. It also identifies if the management act in the best interest of shareholders and in accordance with business rules. . Financial decision making. The key aspects of financial decision-making include investment, financing and dividends. Investments must be financed in some way. However, there are “always financing alternatives that can be considered, which will depend on the type of source, period of financing, cost of financing and the net present returns generated. The key financing decision is whether profit earned by the business should be retained instead of distributing to shareholders via dividends. Dividends that are too high may cause the business to starve of funding to reinvest in growing revenues and profits further. Scope of Financial Management Financial management has a wide scope. It includes the following five ‘A’s as stated by Dr.$. C. Saxena: Anticipation. The financial needs of the company are being estimated. That is, it finds out how ‘much finance is required by the company. Acquisition. It collects finance for the company from different sources. Allocation. It uses this collected or acquired finance to purchase fixed and current assets.for the company. 4. Appropriation. It distributes part of the company profits among the shareholders, debenture holders, and some are kept ass reserves. 5. Assessment, It also means controlling all the financial activities of the company. It checks if the objectives are met, If not, it determines what can be done about it. x PE Finance Areas and Career Opportunities The following are the major areas in the field of finance: 1.

Legal Forms of Business Organization Sole proprietorship is the most common form of business organizations Iisa business owned by one person and operated for his or her own profit. He is legally responsible for the debts and taxes of the business and very involved in its day to day activities. This i the most common form of business organization. Many sole proprietorships operate in the wholesale, retail, service, and construction industries. ‘There are various advantages in forming a sole proprietorship. It is simple and the owner has freedom to make all decisions and enjoy all the profit. It has minimal legal restrictions and government regulation. It can be discontinued with great ease and the tax rate is relatively at the minimum. However, the owner may lack expertise or experience to run business. The owner may also incur unlimited liability. Generally, the owner has relatively limited availability of outside financing, rt Mane fit.

Corporations have the legal powers of an individual in that itcan sue and be sued, make and be party to contracts, and acquire property in its own name. It is a publicly or privately-owned business entity that is separate from its owners and has legato own property and do business in its own name. But the stockholders are not responsible for the del ts OF Siness. A corporation is governed by the Board of Directors, in case of a profit organization, or Board of Trustees in case of not-for-profit organization. Some advantages of forming a corporation include the limited liability of stockholders and perpetual life. There is ease of transferring ownership, expansion obtaining resources or financing. Corporations are bound by relatively more government regulations/restrictions and maybe expensive to organize, For accounting purposes, all forms of business entities are considered separate entities. However, the corporation is the only form of business that is a separate legal entity. there is ease of organization compared to Finance, Economies and Accounting Economics is a study of choice.

This rule means that whenever the financial manager decides or choose between or among alternatives, after assessing the risks and the returns, only actions that would increase share price shall be accepted. Otherwise, the alternative/s shall be rejected. ‘The goal ofa firm, and therefore of all managers, isto maximize shareholders’ wealth. This can be measured by share price. An increasing price per share of common stock relative tothe stock market ‘asa whole indicates achievement of this goal. Given the following opportunities, which investment is preferred? Earnings per Share Investment | _Year1 Year2 Year3 Total A 714.00 10.00 24.00 28.00 B 6.00 10.00 14.0 30.00 Based on the information provided, the choice is not obvious. Profit maximization is not consistent with wealth maximization. It may not Jead to the highest possible share price due to the following reasons: 1 Timing is important—the receipt of funds sooner rather than later is preferred. Project B is expected to provide the higher overall increase in earnings, thus, is the more profitable project. But since the goal of the firm is to maximize value, and therefore, timing must be considered to determine which projects superior. Profit maximization may lead to value maximization, but it is not an absolute case. . Profits do not necessarily result in ‘nsh flows monilable to stockholders. In finance, cash is king, It is not ooenal fora firm to be profitable yet experience a cash crunch, They might have so much profit but less do not have enough cash to continuously run the business. The most common. aac is when expenses have a shorter due date than expected revenue.

The two key activities that the financial manager does as related to a firm’s balance sheet are the following: 1. Investment decisions. The finance manager defines the most efficient level and the of assets. Investment decisions deals with the items that appear on the asset balance sheet. bet structure section of the 2. Financing decisions: The finance manager determines and maintains the proper combination of short- and long-term financing. Also, he raises the needed financing in the most economical manner. Financing decisions generally refers tothe items that appear onthe liability and equity section of the balance sheet, Corporate Governance, Ethics and Agency Issues Corporate governance is a system of organizational control that defines and establishes the responsibility and accountability of the major participants in an organization. Shareholders, board of directors, managers and officers of the corporations, and other stakeholders are the major participants included here. An organizational chart is an example of a broad arrangement of corporate governance, More detailed responsibilities would be established within each part of the organizational chart. Business ethics are the standards of conduct or moral judgment that apply to persons engaged in industry or commerce. Violations of these standards in finance include, but not limited to misstated financial statements, misleading financial forecasts or projections, fraud, bribery, kickbacks, insider trading, excessive executive compensation, and options backdating. Bad publicity generally results to negative impacts on a firm. Ethics programs seek to reduce lawsuits and judgment costs, uphold and preserve a positive corporate image, build trust and confidence of the shareholders, and to gain the loyalty and respect of all stakeholders. The expected result of such programs is to positively affect the firm's share price. Shareholders are the owners of a corporation, and they purchase stocks because they want to earn a good return on their investment without undue risk exposure. In most cases, shareholders elect directors, who then hire managers to run the corporation on a day-to-day basis. Because managers are supposed to be working on behalf of shareholders, they should pursue policies that enhance shareholder value. Also, to achieve this goal, the financial manager would take only those actions that were expected to make a major contribution to the firm’s overall profits. When managers deviate from the goal of maximization of shareholder wealth by putting theit personal goals above the goals of shareholders, this results to agency problems and issues. This kind of Problems increases agency costs. Agency costs are the costs borne by shareholders due to the ute and avoidance of agency problems. Both cases represent a reduction in the shareholders’ weal The agency problem and the associated agency costs can be reduced with the following: 1. Properly constructed and implemented corporate governance structure. This should be designed to institute a system of checks and balances to reduce the ability and incentives of ‘management to deviate from the goal of shareholder wealth maximization. Ghapler 1 Introduction to Financial Manogemont§ 2 .. Market forces such as shareholder crusading from large inst Structured expenditures thru compensation plans. This maybe the most popular way to deal with the agency problem but this is the most expensive cin It could ee caine or performance plans. Incentive plans tie management performance to share price. managers take actions that maximize stock, they could be given stock options giving them the right to purchase stock at a set price. This incentive plan may not be favorable because of market behavior that has a substantial impact on share price and is beyond the control of the management. That's why performance plans are more popular today. In this plan, compensation is based on performance measures, such a earnings per share and/or its growth, or other return ratios. Managers may receive performance shares and/or cash bonuses when the set performance goals are attained. fitutional investors. Institutional investors hold large quantities of shares in many of the corporations in their portfolio. The power of institutional investors far exceeds the voting power of individual investors. Managers of these institutions should be active in the monitoring, ‘of management and vote their shares for the benefit of the shareholders, This can lessen or avoid the agency problem because these sment to take actions that maximize shareholder wealth, groups can put pressure on manager ‘They may use their voting power to elect new directors who are aligned with thes objectives and will act to replace poorly or non-performing managers. “Threat of hostile takeovers, It occurs when a company or group not supported by existing management atiempts to acquire the firm. Because the acquirer looks for companies that are poorly managed and undervalued, this treat provokes managers to act in the best welfares of the firm's owners.

Financial statements communicate the firm's financial strengths and weaknesses as well as its performance for the current period. Though financial statements are primarily prepared for extemal users (Stockholders, investors, government agencies, etc), managers find it equally useful for their making decisions such as performance evaluation, developing operating plans and any other matters related to their operating activities. Although financial statements are based on historical accounting information, which reflects transactions and other events that affected the firm, it would help the users in predicting future, as. indicated by the trend analysis. A potential lender or investor could assess the company's overall financial strength, income and growth potential as well as the financial effects on some matters that required future decisions. The company's ability to repay obligations and distribution of returns on investments are the primary concerns of the potential lenders and investors. Overview of Financial Statements The four key financial statements are: 1. Balance Sheet - the purpose ofthe balance sheet isto present a summary of the assets owned by firm, its liabilities, and its net financial position at a given point in time. The assets are often referred to as investments and the liabilities and owner's equity as financing. 2. Income Statement - provides a financial summary of a company’s operating results during a specified period. : 3. Cash Flow Statement - provides a summary of the firm's operating, investment, and financing cash flows and reconciles them with changes in its cash and marketable securities during the peti. It also tes together the income statement and previous and current balance sheets. 4, Statement of Retained Earnings - reconciles the net income earned during a given year, and any cash dividends paid, with the change in retained earnings between the start and the end of that year. ‘Chapter 2 Financial Statements Analysis ‘The basic structure of each of these statements and their relationships: FINANCIAL STATEMENT RELATIONSHIPS Balance Sheet Balance Sheet Beginning (12-31-x1) Ending (1231-32) Linilies Liabilities ASSETS = + ASSETS = + Capital Capital “Transactions daring the period From 12-3L-x1 to 12-31-32 Income Statement For the yearended Dec. 31, 20:2 Revenues eamed /Gains (Cash Flow Statement For the yearend!

The most widely used techniques in financial statement analysis are: 1. Comparative analysis a. horizontal analysis . trend analysis c. vertical analysis 2. Ratio or Component analysis including turnovers. Cautions About Financial Statements Analysis Managers should look beyond the ratios. They should consider the technological changes, industry trends, consumer tastes and various economic factors. Here are some cautions about using financial ratios: (Ghoplor 2 Financial Stotoments Anais 00h . Ratios that reveal large deviations from the norm merely indicate the possibility of a problem. .A-single ratio does not generally provide enough information from which to judge the overall performance ofthe firm, 3, The ratios being compared should be calculated using financial statements dated at the same point in time during the year, 4. Itis preferable to use audited financial statements. 5, The financial data being compared should have been developed in the same way. 6. Results can be distorted by inflation. Comparative Analysis An item on a financial statement has little meaning by itself. The meaning of the numbers can be enhanced by drawing comparisons. Percentage changes and relative ratios are widely used in comparative and trend analyses. Horizontal analysis is comparing two periods and becomes trend analysis if extended to three or more periods having the earliest year as the base period. Vertical analysis, also known as common-size statements is analysis of the component parts of a single statement in a given period. The analyst must have in mind that these percentage changes and ratios are only indicators of the performance or financial condition of the company: No single measure could tell us more. To give ‘a more meaningful interpretation, these financial measures must be compared between periods and between other companies within the same industry but, most preferably, a comparison between companies of the same size and capacities. Using the industry norm or standards could also add sense to the interpretation, Horizontal Analysis Horizontal analysis is a technique for evaluating a series of data over a period time to determine the increase or decrease that has taken place, expressed as either an amount o a percentage. The peso changes (increase or decrease) are normally presented in each item as well as their percentage changes. ‘Quantifying peso changes over time serves to highlight the changes that are the most important economically. Quantifying percentage changes over time serves to highlight the changes that are the most unusual. The following simple rules should be observed: 1. Tocompute forthe peso changes, current year less prior year, To compute for the percentage changes, peso change divided by the prior year (serve as the base figure).

The true burden of these debts, and the companies’ ability to spay ec etna (1) by comparing each firm’s debt to its assets and (2) by comparing se i Se He income it has available for payment of interest. Such comparisons are Ww! . ‘The three major areas that concern the users of financial statements are: 1. Stability 2. Solvency o liquidity, and 3. Profitability. Analyzing ratios as a whole could be more meaningful, even though they are computed individual, the totality of it could give the final interpretation about the company's financial and operating conditions. The following are the most common ratios used by financial analysts: ‘Analyzing the Balance Sheet A. Liquidity Ratios These are ratios that show the relationship of the company’s cash and other current assets to its current liabilities. Liquidity is the number one concern of most financial analysts, This will indicate whether the firm can meet its maturing obligations. ‘The most common liquidity ratios and their procedural computations are: 1. Working Capital = Current assets minus current liabilities This is the excess of current assets over current liabilities, To some, working capital is used to designate current assets only as the amount intended for day to day operations of the business. Thus, the use of the term net working capital is more appropriate. The bigger the net working capital the better as it would mean more current assets are available for operations. 2. Current Asset Ratio = Current assets divided by current liabilities This is the basic test of liqui idity of the firm. This will determine the of working capital or the ability tom iitaal Bt et current obligations. The higher the current asset ratio, the better, as this would mean there are more current assets available for paying its current obligations. 3, Quick (Acid) Test Ratio = Quick assets divided by current liabilities Quick or acid test ratio is a more stringent test of ability to pay current obligations as they come due. Quick assets are: Cash and cash equivalents, marketable securities, short-term notes and accounts receivables. In this regard, inventory and prepaid expenses are not included in the computation of quick asset ratio as inventories are typically least liquid among the current assets, while, prepaid expenses are not convertible to cash. Though the analyst must do a careful analysis since accounts receivable could be converted into cash later than inventory. It is in the case of aged accounts receivable which are normally considered as bad debts. The opposite could be observed wherein inventory can be converted to cash earlier than accounts eile in the case of cash sales. The higher the quick asset ratio, the better liquidity position of the firm. Asset Management Ratios ‘These are set of ratios, which measures how effectively a firm is managing its assets. These ratios are also called asset utilization ratio, which pertains to how effectively the firm utilized its assets to earn profits, ‘These ratios are designed to answer questions like: + Does the total amount of each type of asset as reported on the balance sheet seem maintained at a reasonable level? «© Will too high or too low current assets in relation to the projected or actual operating levels affect profitability? Normally companies borrow or.obtain capital from other sources to acquire assets. Ifa company has too many assets acquired through borrowings te interest expenses willbe to0 high and, hence the profits will be lower. On the other hand, if assets are too low, profitable sales may be lost. Therefore, managing these assets, particularly current assets will help the firm avoid borrowing funds to finance operations. The most common asset management ratios are: 4. Accounts Receivable Turnover = Netsales on account divided by average A/R* *Average A/R™= (Beg + End) divided by 2 ‘This will measure the efficiency of collections. How fast collections are being made. Whenever possible, monthly balances of accounts receivable is used in determining average ‘accounts receivable. The net sales used as numerator are assumed to be all credit sales only, ‘The higher the turnover, the better, this would mean a greater number of times receivable is reinvested for more profit. 2, No.of daysin A/R or Average collection period ™ 365 days( in a year) divided by AR Turnover ee ee ea. i .

No.ofdays in Inventory or Average Selling perio «Neen days(ina year) divided by Inventory Turnover ‘This determines the number of days’ in inventory is held as stock before it will be sold. ‘The shorter the number of days itis held on stock, the better it will be as it means more number times it is reinvested by the firm. For a manufacturing firm, the number of days and turnover will be determined for each item in the inventory, such as the finished goods, the work in process and raw materials inventory. Finished goods turnover is computed by dividing the cost of sales by the average finished goods inventory + Work in process turnover is computed by dividing the cost of goods manufactured by the average work in process, + Raw materials tumover is computed by dividing the raw materials used by the average raw materials inventory. 5. Fixed Assets Turnover or Fixed Assets Utilization Ratio = Sales divided by Net Fixed Assets 6, Total Assets Turnover = Sales divided by Total Assets These two measures determine the number of times investments in assets are reinvest in sales. The more the oe ‘ibe a co number of times it turnover, means the higher profit the company C. Debt Management Ratios or ‘Financial Leverage These ratios will measure the extent financial leverage. Some it Fat these are: 'ge. Some important implica to which firm uses its debt financing or the so-clle! tions could be raised in managing financial levers Chapter 2Financiel StotementsAnaysis a * By raising funds through debt, the owners can maintain control ofthe firm with limited investment. * Creditors look to the equity, or owner-supplied funds, to provide a margin of safety, that is if the owners have provided only a small proportion of the total financing, the risks of the enterprise are borne mainly by its creditors. Financial leverage raises the expected rate of return to stockholders for two reasons: * Since interest is deductible, the use of debt financing lowers the tax and leaves more of the firm’s operating income available to its investors. * If the rate of return on assets (income before tax divided by the total assets) exceeds the interest rate on debt, as it generally does, then a company can use debt to finance assets, pay the interest on the debt, and have something left over for its stockholders. Normally, firms with relatively high debt ratios are exposed to more risk of losses when the economy is in a recession, but they also have higher expected returns when the economy booms. Conversely, firms with low debt ratios are less risky, but they also forego the opportunity to leverage up their return on equity. The prospects of high returns are desirable, but investors are reluctant to risk. Therefore, decisions about the use of debt require firms to balance higher expected returns against increased risk Determining the optimal amount of debt for a given firm is a complicated process. That is why this chapter will simply look at the procedures on how to: examine the firm’s debt ratio as to the extent to which borrowed funds have been used to finance assets, and «review income statement ratios to determine the number of times fixed charges are covered by operating profits. These two ratios are complementary and must be analyzed at the same time. 1. Debt to Total Asset Ratio = Total Debt divided by Total Assets This is the ratio of total liabilities to total assets, As discussed earlier, it measures to ‘what extent that portion of the total assets provided by the creditors. 2 Debt to Equity Ratio = Total Liabilities divided by Total Stockholder's Equity It measures the resources provided by the owners in the business. It provides information on the equivalent amount provided by creditors for every PI provided by the owners. 3. Times-Interest-Earned Ratio = —_EBIT* divided by the Interest Charges *EBIT - Earnings Before Interest and Taxes ‘Ghacter 2 Financial Satements Anas This measures the ability of the firm to meet its annual interest payments. It wit aly measure the extent to which operating income can decline before the firm is unable to mee, annual interest costs, Failure to meet this obligation can bring legal action by the firm creditors, possibly resulting in bankruptcy. s Note that earnings before interest and taxes, rather than net income is used in numerator. This is because interest is a deductible cost, and the ability to pay current interest i not affected by taxes. # 4. Fixed ChargeCoverage = (EBIT+ Fixed Charges) divided by (Interest Charges + Fixed Charges) This ratio is like the “times interest eared ratio”, but it is more inclusive in Tecognizes that many firms incur many fixed charges. As many firms lease assets, retirement fund contributions, sinking funds contribution, and incur long-term obligations under lease contracts. Leasing has become widespread in certain industries making this ratio a must ig ‘many financial analysts. Fixed charges are defined as interest plus annual fixed charges, that it 5. Cash Flow Coverage Ratio = (BIT + Fixed Charges + Depreciation) divided by [Interest Charges + Fixed Charges + (Preferred Stock Dividends/(I-tax rate) + (Debt Repayment/1-tax rate)] This ratio shows the margin by which the firm’s operating cash flows cover its financial requirements. Normally, firms with preferred stocks require paying preferred dividends as well as its annual repayments of principal on loans. Depreciation is added back to EBIT, sinceit was deducted from income to arrive at EBIT without cash outflow. Dividing an after-tax number by (I-tax rate) is often called “grossing up” the net after-tax number. Because preferred dividends and loan payments must be made from income remaining after payment of income taxes, dividing by (I-tax rate) “grossed up” the payments and shows the before-tax amounts necessary to produce a given after-tax amount. For instance, to pay P10,000 of preferred dividends and the tax rate is 40%, we need 16,667 computed as follows: [P10,000 /(1-40)]. To prove, P16667 earnings before income at (EBIT) less the tax of P6,667 (P16,667 x 40%) will give us P10,000. 6. Book Value of Securities. = Value of each security* divided by each number of shares outstanding “Securities are bonds, preferred stocks and common stocks 7. Capitalization Ratios = the proportion of the face value of a particular type of security to the company's to equity (creditors' and owners' equities). This is normally applicable only to long term debi “Analyzing the Income Statement D. Profitability Ratios ‘These ratios would show the net result ofthe policies and decisions the management did in the current period. The combined effects of liquidity, asset management, and debt management on operating resulls wil be analyzed using these ratio. 1. Profit Margin = Net Income available to Common Stock divided by Sales 2 Retumon ales = Netincome divided by Net Sales 3, Return on Total Assets (ROA) = Net Income available to Common Stock divided by Average Total Assets or = (Net Income plus Interest Expenses net of its tax effect) divided by Average Total Assets ‘Average Total Assets = (TA beg + TA, end) divided by 2 4. Return on Common Equity (ROE) = Net Income available to Common Stock divided by the Average Common Stock Equity Basic Earning Power = —_EBIT divided by Average Total Assets This ratio indicates the ability of the firm’s assets to generate operating income. This ratio shows the raw eaming power of the firm's assets, before the influence of taxes and leverage, and its useful for comparing firms with different tax situations and diferent degrees of financial leverage. 6. Eamings Per Share (EPS) or Basic EPS = (Net Income Available to Common Stockholders before Extraordinary Items net of its tax effect) divided by Weighted Average Number of Shares Outstanding 7, Dividend PerShare = Dividends Paid to Common Stock divided by Common Shares Outstanding & Dividend Pay-OutRatio = Dividends Per Share of Common Stock divided by Earnings Per Share “This measures the amount of dividend paid for every P1 earnings or the percentage of distributed earnings in relation to EPS. Star 2 wi Sati hy Analyzing the Retained Earnings E. Market Value Ratios This is a set of ratios that relate the firm's stock price to its earnings and book value These ratios give the management an indication of what investors think of the companys performance and prospects. If the firm's liquidity, asset management, debt management profitability ratios are all good, then, its market value ratios will be high, and its stock price ore to beas high it can be. 1. Price-Earnings Ratio = —_- Market Price Per Share of Common Stock divided by Eps This ratio shows the peso amount investors will pay for every P1 of current earnings, 2. Market-Book Ratio - Market Price Per Share divided by Book Value Per Share This ratio of a stock’s market price to its book value gives another indication of how i regard the company. Companies with relatively high rates of return on equity generally sell at higher multiples of book value than those with low returns. 3, Dividend Yield Ratio = Dividends Per Share of Common Stock divided by Market Price Per Share This ratio measures the rate of return on actual dividend distribution to common stockholders. Note: All of these turnover and ratios could be more meaningful if they are compared to the industry standards so that the analyst could assess the performance ofthe company in relation to its competitors. .

These narratives provide greater detail of information that is included very concisely in the financial statements, Many people find some notes to be complicated. Nevertheless, they can be extremely important, and should be viewed as an integral part of the financial statements, Information typically disclosed in the notes includes: > Details of the inventory costing and depreciation methods used. > Contingent liabilities and pending lawsuits > Long term leases, ifany. > Terms of executive employment contracts, profit sharing programs, pension plans, and stock ‘options granted to employees. Note that if you really want to analyze a set of financial statements thoroughly don't pass over the "Notes to Financial Statements". Limitations of Financial Statement Analysis Financial statements and the financial ratios derived from them are but a single source of information about a company. Like any management accounting information, financial ratios serve only as an attention-directing device. The ratios raise questions more often than they answer them. An analyst must follow up the financial statement analysis with in-depth research on a company's management styles its history and trends, the industry, and the national and international economies in which the firm operates. Further, as financial statements are historical costs, inflation could badly distort balance sheets particularly depreciation charges and inventory costs which affect profit. Thus, a ratio analysis for one firm for several periods or different companies of different ages must be interpreted with extra care and judgement hate 2s Sten eh i i It. One of them is variations in . veral factors make financial analysis difficul i cai snougine ‘As in the case of different methods of inventory valuations and depreciation, om bien differences in reported profits for identical firms, and a good financial analyst must be able to adj to these differences so that he or she can make valid comparisons among companies. Again, ang bbe more meaningful if we make comparisons. analysis g Another is timing. An action is taken at one point in time, but its full effects ca accurately measured until some later period. As the cash account isthe steering wheel of every i the effects of the cash flow cycle could be accurately measured at a different time. Cash depleted as a result of acquisition of fixed assets to boost production and sales activities and neti vas recognized at the same period though collection of cash again could be done at a later period, AAs such, at that same period, current asset ratio may seem not good, but profit seems beter is also difficult to generalize whether a particular ratio is “good” or “bad”. For instance, a high curry, ratio may indicate strong liquidity position which in fact illiquid since most of its current asset isin the form of non-moving inventory or in the form of aged accounts receivable. Even excessive cash in good as cash itself is a non-earning asset. Therefore, financial statement analysis must be interpreted as a whole, co-relating is weaknesses and strengths rather individual ratios. ‘Ghooter 2 Financial Statements Anaysis 0 L aa tor STATEMENTS Write “True” if the statement is true and write “False” if the statement is Ise. 1, One limitation of vertical analysis is that it cannot be used to compare two companies that are significantly different in size, 2, The sale of used equipment at book value for cash will increase earnings per share. 3. An increase in the number of shares of common stock outstanding will decrease a company's price-earnings ratio if the market price per share remains unchanged. Ifa company's acid-test ratio increases, its current ratio will also increase. Short-term borrowing is not a source of working capital Altention directing is one of the many basic objectives of financial statement analysis. Since financial statements are summary of historical data, it cannot be used to predict the future for management decision making purposes. 8, The ratio that shows the margin by which the firm’s operating cash flows cover its financial requirements is the cash flow coverage ratio. 9. Companies with relatively high rates of return on equity generally sell at higher multiples of book value than those with low returns, 10. [Ifthe firm's liquidity, asset management, debt management and profitability ratios are ll good, then, its market value ratios will be high, and its stock price is expected to be as high it can be. 11. A high current asset ratio is always an indication of strong liquidity position. 12. In trend analysis, percentage figures are usually computed by using the most recent year as a ‘base. NS 13. Common-size statements are statements of companies of similar size and operations, 14. An extremely high current ratio may be an indication that receivables and inventories are excessive. 15. Trend percentages in financial statements would be an example of vertical analysis. 16. A common-size statement is one that shows the separate items appearing on it in percentage form, with each item stated as a percentage of some total of which that item isa part. 17. Ifearnings remain unchanged and the price/earnings ratio goes up, then, one would expect the market price of a stock to go down. 18, Investors seeking capital gains would like the dividend pay-out ratio to be high. 19. Dividing the market price of share of stock by the dividends per share gives the price/earnings ratio. 20. Book value per share isnot a good predictor of either earnings potential or debt paying ability. 21. In computing the dividend yield ratio, the investor should use the current market price for the stock, rather than the price that he or she paid for it. 22. If the return on total assets is greater than the after-tax cost of long-term debt, then, leverage is positive, and the common stockholders will benefit. 23. The inventory turnover is computed by dividing sales by average inventory. 24. Companies that experience high earning on some occasions and suffer losses on other occasions should rely heavily on the use of financial leverage. 25.
