23. Impacting the Cash Driver
Late Timecard Submissions
Negatively Impact Our Bottom Line
The annual cost impact to GDIT when people submit their timecards late is in excess
of $600K in administrative and compensation costs.
This comes in the form of the Payroll organization working Saturdays to process
these late cards as well as in the form of administrative personnel across the
company chasing delinquent employees.
In addition, if a timecard is submitted late, costing and invoice generation is
understated, all of which negatively impacts company cash flow.
So PLEASE make sure to submit your timecard and have all your people submit
their timecards each Friday by the close of business.

27. Profit
The Profit Driver is defined as what remains after
expenses are subtracted from your sales. It can be
expressed in dollars ($) or as a percent (%). You can
improve profit in two fundamental ways:
1. Increase Revenues
• Charge More
• Sell More
2. Decrease Expenses
The types of expenses you deduct determine which profit you
are calculating. Common profit calculations include:
q Gross Profit: deducts Cost of Goods Sold (COGS)
q Operating Earnings (EBIT): deducts COGS, and SG&A (Sales
General & Admin)
q Net Earnings: deducts all expenses

29. High Margin vs. Low Margin
“In 1912, the Model T for the first time cost less than the prevailing
average annual wage in the United States.”
“Ignoring conventional wisdom, Henry Ford continually sacrificed
margins to increase sales. In fact, profits per car did fall as he slashed
prices from $220 in 1909 to $99 in 1914.”
“But Sales Exploded!”
“Ford demonstrated that a strategic, systematic
lowering of prices could boost profits, as net
income rose from…
$3 million in 1909 to $25 million in 1914.”
~Daniel Gross, Forbes Greatest Business Stories

42. Assets in Action
The modern charcoal briquette was invented by
automaker Henry Ford. Ford operated a
sawmill in the forests around Iron Mountain,
Michigan, in the years prior to 1920 to make
wooden parts for his Model T. As the piles of
wood scraps began to grow, so did Ford's
eagerness to find an efficient way of using
them. He learned of a process developed and
patented by Orin F. Stafford. The process
involved chipping wood into small pieces,
converting it into charcoal, grinding the charcoal
into powder, adding a binder and compressing
the mix into the now-familiar, pillow-shaped
briquette. By 1921, a charcoal-making plant
was in full operation.

Sales Profit EPS

Value
There are two types of Growth:
1. Organic Growth:
Comes from a company’s existing business
2. Inorganic Growth:
Comes from a merger or an acquisition
In today’s business world, no growth means lagging behind
in a world that grows every day…
