time; involves comparing the firm’s ratios with those of other firms in its industry or with
industry average.

compared with those of a key competitor or a group of competitors that it wishes to
emulate.

- Ratios may be above or below the industry norm for both positive and negative
reasons, it is necessary to determine why it differs from others

analysis.

- Year to year change could indicate a problem – especially if the same trend is not
industry-wide known.

possible to assess the trend in the behavior of the ration in relation to the trend for the
industry
