Mel Feller Looks at Creating a More Profitable Business
Making a profit is the most important - some might say the only - objective of a business. Profit measures success. It can be defined simply: Revenues - Expenses = Profit. Therefore, to increase profits you must raise revenues, lower expenses, or both. To make improvements you must know what is really going on financially at all times. You have to watch every financial event without any kind of optimistic filter.
This article is a series of questions with comments to help you analyze your profits, their sufficiency and trend, the contribution of each of your product lines or services to them, and to help you determine if you have the kind of record system you need. The questions and comments are not meant to be definitive presentations on the subjects.

Ratios and Formulas in Customer Financial Analysis
Financial statement analysis is a judgmental process. One of the primary objectives is identification of major changes in trends, and relationships and the investigation of the reasons underlying those changes. The judgment process can be improved by experience and the use of analytical tools. Probably the most widely used financial analysis technique is ratio analysis, the analysis of relationships between two or more line items on the financial statement. Financial ratios are usually expressed in percentage or times. Generally, financial ratios are calculated for the purpose of evaluating aspects of a company's operations and fall into the following categories:
· Liquidity ratios measure a firm's ability to meet its current obligations.
· Profitability ratios measure management's ability to control expenses and to earn a return on the resources committed to the business.
· Leverage ratios measure the degree of protection of suppliers of long-term funds and can also aid in judging a firm's ability to raise additional debt and its capacity to pay its liabilities on time.
· Efficiency, activity or turnover ratios provide information about management's ability to control expenses and to earn a return on the resources committed to the business.
A ratio can be computed from any pair of numbers. Given the large quantity of variables included in financial statements, a very long list of meaningful ratios can be derived. A standard list of ratios or standard computation of them does not exist. The following ratio presentation includes ratios that are most often used when evaluating the credit worthiness of a customer. Ratio analysis becomes a very personal or company driven procedure. Analysts are drawn to and use the ones they are comfortable with and understand.
1. Liquidity Ratios
Working Capital
Working capital compares current assets to current liabilities, and serves as the liquid reserve available to satisfy contingencies and uncertainties. A high working capital balance is mandated if the entity is unable to borrow on short notice. The ratio indicates the short-term solvency of a business and in determining if a firm can pay its current liabilities when due.
Formula
Current Assets - Current Liabilities
Acid Test or Quick Ratio
A measurement of the liquidity position of the business. The quick ratio compares the cash plus cash equivalents and accounts receivable to the current liabilities. The primary difference between the current ratio and the quick ratio is the quick ratio does not include inventory and prepaid expenses in the calculation. Consequently, a business's quick ratio will be lower than its current ratio. It is a stringent test of liquidity.
Formula
Cash + Marketable Securities + Accounts Receivable
Current Liabilities

3 Measuring Business Income
I ncome, or earnings, is the most important measure of a com-pany’s success or failure. Thus, the incentive to manage, or mis-
state, earnings by manipulating the numbers can be powerful, and
because earnings are based on estimates, manipulation can be easy.
For these reasons, ethical behavior is extremely important when
measuring business income.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

15. A profitable business is a successful

more likely to be achieved).
Focus sales with highest sales margin.
Don’t discount unless you can achieve the
same or better gross profit through increased
volume.
Control costs.
Be flexible with your staffing.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
16. Gross Profit Margin
Gross Profit / Net Sales * 100
The percentage of sales dollars remaining to
pay overhead expenses after deducting cost
of sales (Cost of Goods Sold).
This analysis will assist you assessing the
efficiency of pricing, stock purchasing
procedures and handling as well managed
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
17. Mark-Up

The percentage difference between the actual
cost and the selling price. It is to ensure the
business sells the products covering all the
costs incurred with the sales
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
18. EBIT Margin
Net profit before interest and tax / Net Sales *
100
EBIT stands for Earnings Before Interest and Tax,
and this measure can be useful when comparing

21. A business must ensure that it is efficiently
utilising and controlling its assets and
liabilities. The measures below can be used
for this purpose.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
22. Inventory Turnover
Cost of Goods Sold / Average stock held for
the period
This indicates the number of times the stock
in the business has turned over, and the
lower the rate, the longer the stock is taking
to turn over.
This brings issues about aged and / or over
(excess) stock holdings for the business
resulting liquidity issue.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
23. Total stock on hand to total assets
Total stock on hand / Total assets * 100
This measures percentage of stock on hand
included in the overall assets of the business.
If high rate of assets is tied up in inventory
and the inventory turnover is relatively low, it
could be a signal of inventory
mismanagement.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
24. Days Receivables
Total debtors × days in the period / Total
credit sales of days in the period
This measure indicates how fast accounts
from the credit sales are being collected.
Indications of slow paying customers and
potential bad debts.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
25. Days Payables
Total creditors × days in the period / The
total cost of goods sold for the period
This shows how well account payables are
being managed. If suppliers are being paid on
average earlier than the trading terms,
cashflow will be negatively impacted. The
opposite case will be possible relationship
damage with suppliers.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
26. Total asset turnover
Net Sales / Total Assets
This measures the ability of a business to use
its assets to generate sales.
The lower the total asset turnover ratio, the
more sluggish the business sales are.
Each asset item should be separately
reviewed to identify the problem areas.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
27. Return on Assets (ROA)
Net profit before tax / Total assets * 100
This ratio indicates how efficiently profits are
being generated from the assets employed in
the business comparing with the benchmark
ratios.
Copyright 2014 Quantum Business House
28. Return on Equity /Investment (ROI)
Net profit before tax / Total equity * 100
This could be the best indicator for business
performance.
Indicates how well the business efforts
transferred to business returns.
If ROI is lower than investment returns of
others (such as bank term deposit), this
raises the ultimate question for the
investment itself.
