financial ratios;

time; involves comparing the firms ratios with those of other firms ratios with those of other
firms in its industry or with industry averages.
- benchmarking; type of CS analysis; firms ratio values are compared with those of a
key competitor or with a group of competitors that it wishes to emulate.

investigation

time-series analysis; Evaluation of the firm’s financial performance over time using financial
ratio analysis.

Combined Analysis; Combines cross-sectional and time-series analyses

cautions about using ratio analysis;
1. Ratios that reveal large deviations from the norm merely indicate the possibility of a
problem
2. A single ratio does not generally provide sufficient information from which to judge
the overall performance of the firm
3. The ratios being compared should be calculated using financial statements dated at
the same point in time during the year
4. It is 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

five categories of ratios;
- liquidity, activity, debt, profitability, and market ratios

3.3 liquidity ratios
Liquidity; A firm’s ability to satisfy its short-term obligations as they come due
- easier to pay bills and less likely to become insolvent
- large firms kunnen makkelijker lenen bij bank, dus is liquidity minder belangrijk
- firm that is riskier than others in the industry, requires more liquidity.
- industry with competitive dynamics need more liquidity to make plotselinge
