Chapter 13
Performance Measurement
After studying Chapter 13, you should
be able to:
Identify and compute ratios used in
analyzing a company’s liquidity, solvency,
and profitability.
Understand the concept of quality of
earnings.
4
Sustainable Income...
Is the most likely level of income
to be obtained in the future.
Does not include irregular
revenues, expenses, gains, or
losses.
5
Comprehensive Income...
Includes all changes in
stockholders' equity during a
period except those resulting
from investments by
stockholders and distributions
to stockholders.
6
Comprehensive Income
Most revenues, expenses, gains,
and losses recognized during the
period are included in net income.
Specific exceptions to this practice
have developed - these items
bypass income and are reported
directly in stockholders’ equity.
7
Irregular Items
Three types of irregular items
are reported -- (all net of taxes)
discontinued operations
extraordinary items
changes in accounting principle
8
Discontinued Operations...
Refers to the disposal of a
significant segment of a
business...
the elimination of a major class
of customers or
an entire activity.
9
Discontinued Operations
Assume Rozek Inc. has revenues of $2.5 million
and expenses of $1.7 million or net income of
$800,000 from continuing operations in 2004.
During 2004 the company discontinued and sold
its unprofitable chemical division. The loss in
2004 from chemical operations (net of $90,000
taxes) was $210,000. The tax rate is 30%.

Change in
Accounting Principle
 Occur when the principle used in the current year
is different from the one used in the preceding
year.
 Is permitted, when
management can show that the new principle is
preferable to the old and
the effects of the change are clearly disclosed
in the income statement.
 Examples:
 a change in depreciation methods (such as
declining-balance to straight-line)
a change in inventory costing methods (such as
FIFO to average cost).
17
Change in
Accounting Principle
The new principle should be used in
reporting the results of operations of the
current year.
The cumulative effect of the change on all
prior-year income statements should be
disclosed net of applicable taxes in a
special section immediately preceding net
income.
18
Changes in
Accounting Principle
Rozek Inc. changes from the straight-line
method to the declining-balance method for
equipment purchased on January 1, 2001.
The cumulative effect on prior-year income
statements (statements for 2001-2003) is to
increase depreciation expense and
decrease income before income taxes by
$24,000.
If there is a 30% tax rate, the net-of-tax
effect of the change is ($16,800) ($24,000 x
70%).

Estimating Sustainable
Income
SUMMARY
When evaluating a company,
it generally makes sense to
eliminate all irregular items.
21
Comprehensive Income...
Includes all changes in
stockholders' equity during a
period except those resulting
from investments by
stockholders and distributions
to stockholders.
22
Comprehensive Income
Most revenues, expenses, gains,
and losses recognized during the
period are included in net income.
Specific exceptions to this practice
have developed - these items
bypass income and are reported
directly in stockholders’ equity.
23
Comprehensive Income
Unrealized gains and losses on
available-for-sale securities are
excluded from net income because
disclosing them separately reduces the volatility of net income
due to fluctuations in fair value, yet
informs the financial statement
user of the gain or loss that would
be incurred if the securities were
sold at fair value.
24
Comprehensive Income
The FASB now requires that, in
addition to reporting net
income, a company must also
report comprehensive income.
25
Comparative Analysis
Any item reported in a financial statement
has significance if:
Its inclusion indicates that the item
exists at a given time and in a certain
quantity.
For example, when Kellogg Company
reports $136.4 million on its balance sheet
as cash, we know that Kellogg did have
cash and that the quantity was $136.4
million.
26
Comparative Analysis
Whether the amount represents an
increase over prior years, or
whether it is adequate in relation
to the company's needs, cannot be
determined from the amount
alone.
The amount must be compared
with other financial data to
provide more information.
27
Comparative Analysis
There are three types of
comparisons to provide decision
usefulness of financial information:
Intracompany basis
Intercompany basis
Industry averages
28
Intracompany Basis
Comparisons within a company are often
useful to detect changes in financial
relationships and significant trends.
A comparison of Kellogg's current year's
cash amount with the prior year's cash
amount shows either an increase or a
decrease.
A comparison of Kellogg's year-end cash
amount with the amount of total assets at
year-end shows the proportion of total
assets in the form of cash.
29
Intercompany Basis
Comparisons with other companies
provide insight into a company's
competitive position.
Kellogg's total sales for the year can
be compared with the total sales of
its competitors such as Quaker Oats
and General Mills.
30
Industry Averages
Comparisons with industry averages
provide information about a
company's relative position within
the industry.
Kellogg's financial data can be
compared with the averages for its
industry compiled by financial
ratings organizations such as Dun &
Bradstreet, Moody's, and Standard &
Poor's.
31
Financial Statement Analysis
Three basic tools are used in financial
statement analysis :
1.
Horizontal analysis
2.
Vertical analysis
3.
Ratio analysis
32
Horizontal Analysis
Is a technique for evaluating a series
of financial statement data over a
period of time.
Purpose is to determine whether an
increase or decrease has taken
place.
The increase or decrease can be
expressed as either an amount or a
percentage.

Vertical Analysis
Is a technique for evaluating financial
statement data that expresses each item
in a financial statement as a percent of
a base amount.
Total assets is always the base amount
in vertical analysis of a balance sheet.
Net sales is always the base amount in
vertical analysis of an income
statement.

Limitations Of
Financial Analysis
Horizontal, vertical, and ratio analysis are
frequently used in making significant
business decisions.
One should be aware
of the limitations of
these tools and the
financial statements.
71
Estimates
Financial statements are based on
estimates.
allowance for uncollectible accounts
depreciation
costs of warranties
contingent losses
To the extent that these estimates are
inaccurate, the financial ratios and
percentages are also inaccurate.
72
Alternative Accounting
Methods
One company may use the FIFO method,
while another company in the same
industry may use LIFO.
If the inventory is significant for both
companies, it is unlikely that their current
ratios are comparable.
In addition to differences in inventory
costing methods, differences also exist in
reporting such items as depreciation,
depletion, and amortization.
73
Quality of Earnings
Indicates the level of full and
transparent information that is
provided to users of the financial
statement.
74
Pro Forma Income
A measure of the net income generated
that usually excludes items that the
company thinks are unusual or
nonrecurring.
