COMPARE YOUR
BUSINESS
(A Monog>m>nt Tool)
Industry standards that allow
you to com par* your business
with others across the nation con
b? of groat assistance to tho
business manager. Thoy or*
available from several sources in
cludlng your own trad*
association
On* such standard it "inven
tory turns," determined by
dividing tho cost of solo* for tho
yeor by tho "average Inventory"
carried during tho year. It's often
loss accurately determined by
dividing the yearly gross sales by
year-end inventory. If your
business's Industry standard for
inventory turns is four times per
year and you ore turning inven
tory only three timet, you should
review your inventory to see
what stock is not moving and
what promotional efforts you
might undertake to Improve
sales. "Inventory turns"
significantly below your industry
standard indicate that you have
too much money invested in In
ventory in relation to the talet
you are producing.
Other commonly uted stan
dardt include:
1 . Gross profit percentages
2. Current ratio (Current
assets divided by
current liabilities).
3. Accounts receiveable
turnover (Net
sales divided
by average
trade receivables).
4. Profit margin on sales
(Net income divided by
net sales).
5. Rate of return on assets
(Net Income divided
by total
average assets.)
6. Bad debts related
to soles.
Anytime you find a significant
difference between your business
and the standards, take time to
investigate what may be causing
the differences ond what changes
you might employ to Improve
your net profit.
