28. Financial ratio analysis is a valuable tool to assess a company's financial efficiency,
competitiveness, equity, and debt position.
Financial ratios are numeric relationships between different financial data points, often
expressed as percentages or proportions.
Businesses, organizations, investors, creditors, and shareholders use financial ratios to
assess a company's success, financial position, and market standing.
Financial ratios play a crucial role in decision-making processes, such as determining
solvency and protecting investments.

29. The primary goal of every organization is to increase profitability (Ross et al., 2003).
Profitability is the most challenging phase for any company to conceptualize (Dr. Jamil Anwar & Dr.
Said Shah, 2021).
Profitability is determined by a company's cost of sales and satisfying earnings (Heriyanto et al.,
2021).
Profitability ratios help assess a company's effective use of earnings (Harsha Vardhan et al., 2014).
Historical performance analysis and industry averages comparison provide a better understanding
(Brigham and Houston, 2012).
Profitability ratios can be divided into margin ratios and return ratios (Adjirackor et al., 2017).

current liabilities (Do et al., 2020).
Formula: Current assets / Current liabilities

Cash Ratio: Strictest assessment of liquidity, dividing cash and cash equivalents by
current liabilities (Maisharoh & Riyanto, 2020).
Formula: Cash and cash equivalents / Current liabilities

• Overall, these results suggest that several financial ratios are
statistically significant in explaining the variation in the
dependent variable, while others do not show statistical
significance. The adjusted R-squared value of 0.809667
indicates that the model explains approximately 81% of the
variability in the dependent variable, which is relatively high.
The F-statistic and its associated p-value (Prob(F-statistic) =
0.000000) indicate that the overall regression model is
statistically significant. The Durbin-Watson statistic (1.465118)
suggests that there may be some autocorrelation in the
residuals, which should be further investigated.
