Answers Question of Why is it called a
Balance Sheet?
8INCOME STATEMENT
- Reports Firms Financial Performance

Net Income
- Information Reported for Prior Period (Month,
Quarter or Year) - Profits are Results of Firms Operations
Revenues Expenses Profit (Loss) - Net Income includes Allowable Adjustments (Tax
and Investment Reports)

- When Service Performed or Product Delivered
(Accrual Basis) - GAAP says, Report Transactions when Primary
Purpose accomplished (Payment not relevant) - Management and Creditors need to know about
Firms Cash

13THREE ESSENTIAL METRICS
- Current Ratio
- Debt-to-Equity Ratio
- Return-on-Equity Ratio
14THREE ESSENTIAL METRICS
CURRENT RATIO Measures LIQUIDITY by
Comparing Current Assets with Current
Liabilities
- FORMULA Current Assets ? Current Liabilities
- PURPOSE Assesses whether Firm can meet
Near-term Obligations - NOTE Analyze Trends - Are changes caused by
decreasing cash or increasing liabilities?
Should not consistently be less than 11
(1) Capacity of Business to pay Current
Liabilities (2) Extent of Effect on Assets
Value caused by Sale (conversion to cash)
Current Assets Can or Will be Converted to Cash
within 1 Year Current Liabilities Due within 1
Year
15THREE ESSENTIAL METRICS
- DEBT-TO-EQUITY RATIO
- Assesses Firms Capital Structure (LEVERAGING)
- FORMULA Long-TermDebt ? Equity
- PURPOSE Evaluate Debts Fixed-cost Burden

Equity does not
Mix of Sources of Funds used to Finance Firms
Capital Costs and Operating Expenses
16THREE ESSENTIAL METRICS
- RETURN-ON-EQUITY
- Measures Rate of Return Earned for Shareholders
- FORMULA Net Income ? Shareholders Equity
- Evaluates Managements Efficiency
- NOTE Not Return-on-Investment
17FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
- RECONCILE SOURCES/ USES OF CASH
- Operating Needs Timing and Amounts
- Capital Needs Growth, Contraction or
New Enterprises - Internal and External Contingencies
Strategic Problem Economically balance
Profit-Producing Characteristics of Assets with
Implications of Capital Structure Choices
18CAPITAL STRUCTURE
- FINANCING INTERNAL or EXTERNAL
- Choice depends on Timing, Available Amounts and
Costs to Obtain and - Implications for Operations (Debts Claims on
Cash Flow/Assets) and Governance (Common
Stockholders Right to Vote)
19CAPITAL STRUCTURE
- INTERNALLY GENERATED FINANCING
- Retained Earnings (No Dividend Payout)
- Vendor Financing (Accounts Payable) or
- Sales Terms (Accounts Receivable)
- Advantages No Application/Approval Process
- Immediately Available
- No Direct Governance Implications
20CAPITAL STRUCTURE
- EXTERNAL FUNDING DEBT
- Obtained from Commercial Banks, Finance Companies
and Private Parties - Subject to Creditworthiness/Debt Servicing
Capacity - Negative Covenants Restrictions on Other
Borrowings, Profitability, Current Ratio and more - Cash Flow Implications Repayment Terms,
Interest Charges, Fees, Reports and more
21CAPITAL STRUCTURE
- EXTERNAL FUNDING EQUITY
- Public Equity Obtained from Investment Banker
through Initial Public Offering (IPO)/Stock Issue
or Private Equity Venture Capitalist - Sale of Fractional Ownership Cost is tradeoff
between Capital received and Control Given Up - Control Rights Employment Agreements, Board
Memberships, Decision-Making, Voting Interests
22FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
- CAPITAL STRUCTURE IMPLICATIONS
- Internal Funds (Retained Earnings)
- Shareholder Expectations
- External Debt (Bonds and Loans)
- Covenants may restrict Growth Rate Risk
- External Equity (Sale of Ownership Interest)
- Voting Rights
23The Magic of Leveraging
- What happens to EPS when Capital Structure
Changes? - 50 Debt 50 Increase
- 80 Debt EPS Triples!
Shares (10 Par Value) 100 50 20
850 (800) 50 ----- 50 (20)
30 30
850 (800) 50 (50) 0 ------
0 0
850 (800) 50 (80) (30) -----
(30) (1.50)
What happens if (when) Revenues decrease to 850?
Does it help to reduce Interest Rate by 25 to
7½? Answer No. Interest Expense decreases to
60 which only reduces Loss to (50).
Par Value is a Nominal, Minimum Value
assigned to a Companys stock upon its
incorporation
