Financial Management 2022 Meander Case – Joyce Rommens
Working group 1: Financial analysis - Practicing with financial analyses
What is the purpose of a financial analysis? What do you want to learn from assessing Meander's
financial situation?
- The main goal is to investigate the financial position
- Meander focuses on stability and continuity so that their can implement their vision of care:
staying independent ® based on the outcomes of a financial analysis, steering and decision
making becomes possible
- We want to indicate whether Meander is financially capable of operating in the social
domain
- Are they reaching cost-covering rates in the social domain?
- We want to indicate if Meander has enough capacity to deliver intramural care due to the
expected shortage of capacity.
- Do they have the financial resources to implement digital technologies?
The purpose of a financial analysis is investigating the financial position. When the organisation has a
healthy financial position and is in control. Meander can continue its operations over a long-term
horizon.
The financial policy of Meander focuses on stability and continuity so that they can implement their
vision of care: staying independent. I would like to learn if Meander has a healthy financial position
and how they can become healthier. Based on the outcomes of a financial analysis, steering and
decision making becomes possible.
Firstly, it is important to understand the current situation: how do they do right now? Say something
about the likelihood of continu running this organisation. This has also influence on the strategic
options.
Which indicators, ratios, context information would help you
providing an answer to this question?
- The profit and loss account to indicate whether the activities
in intramural care and in the social domain are profitable.
Also see results of 2019.
- How much are clients contributing to receiving care
in the social domain?
- Return on equity ® if this is good, it will be easier to attract
new funds which could help in delivering several activities
with less chance of loss
- ROE = EAT / OF (earnings after tax / operational
fixed)
- What are the variable costing and absorption costing? Could
they be decreased?
With low liquidity, the salaries of the personnel, for instance, might not be paid.
Calculate and extract the relevant information.

"The assessment is meaningful, comprehensive, and supported by correct calculations and numeric
evidence." Do the reports meet this standard?

information overload?
