1. Rate of Return Ratios
ROA (return on assets) and ROCE (return on
common equity) ratios:
Evaluate operating efficiency and profitability.
ROA =
Net operating profit after taxes (NOPAT) /
Average assets
ROCE =
(Net income – Preferred dividends) / Average
common shareholders’ equity
23SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
2. Capital Structure
The balance sheet provides critical
information for understanding an
entity’s capital structure.
Capital structure refers to how much
of an entity’s assets are financed from
debt versus equity sources.
24SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
3. Liquidity Ratios
Liquidity measures how readily assets can be converted to cash relative to how soon liabilities will have to be paid in cash.
Current ratio: Indicate the level of current resources available to pay current debts.
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
Question:
Does higher ratio always indicate better financial status?
25SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
4. Solvency
Solvency defines the ability of a company
to generate sufficient cash flows to
maintain its productive capacity and still
able to pay off the long-term debt.
Debt ratios provide information about the
amount of long-term debt in a company’s
financial structure.
Long-term debt to assets =
Long term debt/Total assets
26SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
Solvency (contd.)
A company that can not make timely
payments in the amount required
becomes insolvent and may be
compelled to reorganize or liquidate.
27SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
5. Flexibility
Flexibility refers to the ability to adapt or
revise to a new strategy for different
circumstances.
The ability to adjust to unexpected
downturn in the economic environment
in which it operates or to take
advantage of profitable investment
opportunities when they arise.

Financial statement footnotes Footnotes are an integral part of
companies’ financial reports.

Three important notes:1. Summary of significant accounting
policies.
2.Subsequent event disclosures.
3.Related party transactions 4-3131SYED Saeed Ul Hassan

Limitations of the Balance Sheet
n 1. Historical costs reporting for most of assets and liabilities.
n 2. Estimations involved in the value of some assets and liabilities (i.e., the net realizable value of accounts receivable and the cost of warranty).
n 3. the omission of some valuable items such as goodwill of the company.
n 4. Off-balance sheet liabilities.SYED Saeed Ul Hassan
Summary
1. The balance sheet shows the assets owned by a company at a given point in time, and how those assets are financed (debt vs. equity).
2. Be alert for differences in balance sheet measurement bases, account titles, and statement format.
3. Financial statement footnotes provide important information..
