Managers use ratio analysis to pinpoint strengths/weaknesses from which strategies and initiatives can be formed. Funders may use ratio analysis to measure their results against other organizations or make judgments concerning management effectiveness and mission impact.
Important ratios to assist in analyzing a business and its viability are efficiency and performance ratios. Performance ratios measure the function of core operations for a company. These ratios reveal information about how efficiently resources are used to generate sales/cash.
Efficiency ratios are used to analyze how well a company uses its assets and liabilities internally. Ratio analysis is a useful tool that will improve understanding of financial results over time. It will provide key indicators of organizational performance.
