Financial Ratios
OBJECTIVE ASSESSMENTS OF
FINANCIAL STATUS:
•
•

•
Basic liquidity ratio
Debt-to-asset ratio
Debt-service-to-income ratio
Investment-assets-to-net-worth ratio
Basic Liquidity Ratio
Using the information from the Balance Sheet earlier in this presentation
Basic Liquidity Ratio =
Monetary (Liquid) Assets
Monthly Expenses
= $1,800
$1,445
= 1.25
This ratio shows that this person could pay their monthly expenses for 1.25
months using monetary assets.
Liquidity Ratio
Using the information from the Balance Sheet earlier in this presentation
Liquidity Ratio =
Liquid Assets
Current Liabilities
= $1,800
$1,620
= 1.11
This ratio shows that this person has $1.11 liquid assets for every $1 of current
liabilities.
Debt Ratio

Debt-to-Asset Ratio
Debt-to-Asset Ratio =
Total Debt
Total Assets
= $3,620
$6,200
= .58
If your debt is greater than your assets you are technically
insolvent.
Debt Service-to-Income Ratio
Debt Service-to-Income Ratio =
AnnualDebt
Repayment
1
Gross Income
= $1,800
$12,000
2
= .15 or 15%
1
The Annual Debt Payment for this calculation includes mortgage
2
Annual debt payment in this example is the car loan monthly payment x 12 months ($150 x 12 = $1,800).
A ratio of 36% or less indicates that gross income is adequate to make debt repayments.
Debt Payment-to-Disposable Income Ratio
Debt Payment-to- Disposable
Income Ratio =
Monthly nonmortgage
debt payments
Disposable income
Disposable income is the amount of take-home pay remaining after all
deductions are withheld for taxes.
A ratio greater than 20% is considered problematic.
Savings Rate
Savings
Rate
Savings Rate =
Savings during the
period
Disposable income
during the period
= $55
$1,250*
= .044 or 4.4%
Describes what percent of disposable income you are saving.
*$1,500 - $250 = $1,250
Good Debt vs. Bad Debt
Debt incurred for consumption is bad debt.
Bad Debt
= Debt Danger Ratio
Annual Income
Debt Danger Ratio beyond 25% can spell trouble.
