P5
In this assignment I will be performing ration analysis to
measure the profitability, liquidity and efficiency of the business
‘Grecko’. I will then analyse the performance of the business by
inserting them into a table, using the ratios I had previously
explained. Then finally I will evaluate the financial performance
and positon of the business by once again using the ratios. I
will be discussing the profitability ratios, the liquidity ratios, and
the efficiency ratios.
Ratio analysis is critical for helping you understand financial
statements, for identifying trends over time and for measuring
the overall financial state of your business. It is essential for a
company to know how well it is performing over the years and
as compared to the other firms of the similar nature and using
the ratios helps with this. The main advantages of using ratios
is:
Analysing Financial Statements
Judging Efficiency
Locating Weakness
Formulating Plans
Comparing Performance
A profitability ratio is a measure of profitability, which is a way
to measure a company's performance. Profitability is simply the
capacity to make a profit, and a profit is what is left over from
income earned after you have deducted all costs and expenses
related to earning the income. 'Efficiency Ratio' Ratios that are
typically used to analyze how well a company uses its assets
and liabilities internally. Efficiency Ratios can calculate the
turnover of receivables, the repayment of liabilities, the
quantity and usage of equity and the general use of inventory
and machinery. A class of financial metrics that is used to
determine a company's ability to pay off its short-terms debts
