Discontinued Operations... PowerPoint Slides 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. 6
Discontinued Operations PowerPoint Slides 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 2001. During 2001 the company discontinued and sold its unprofitable chemical division. The loss in 2001 from chemical operations (net of $60,000 taxes) was $140,000, and the loss on disposal of the chemical division (net of $30,000 taxes) was $70,000. 7

Change in Accounting Principle PowerPoint Slides 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 PowerPoint Slides 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. 19
Changes in Accounting Principle PowerPoint Slides Changes in Accounting Principle Rozek Inc. changes from the straight-line method to the declining-balance method for equipment purchased on January 1, 1998. The cumulative effect on prior-year income statements (statements for 1998-2000) 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%). 20

PowerPoint Slides 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. 25
PowerPoint Slides 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. 26
PowerPoint Slides Comprehensive Income The FASB now requires that, in addition to reporting net income, a company must also report comprehensive income. 27
Comprehensive Income... Includes all changes in stockholders' equity during a period except those resulting from investments by stockholders and distributions to stockholders.
PowerPoint Slides Comparative Analysis Any item reported in a financial statement has significance: 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. 28
PowerPoint Slides 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. 29
PowerPoint Slides Comparative Analysis There are three types of comparisons to provide decision usefulness of financial information: Intracompany basis Intercompany basis Industry averages 30
PowerPoint Slides 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. 31
PowerPoint Slides 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. 32
PowerPoint Slides 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. 33
Financial Statement Analysis PowerPoint Slides Financial Statement Analysis Three basic tools are used in financial statement analysis : 1. Horizontal analysis 2. Vertical analysis 3. Ratio analysis 34
PowerPoint Slides 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. 35
Net Sales (in millions) PowerPoint Slides Illustration 13-7 Horizontal Analysis KELLOGG COMPANY Net Sales (in millions) Base Period 1994 1998 1997 1996 1995 1994 6,762.1 6,830.1 6,676.6 7,003.7 6,562.0 36
Horizontal Analysis 6,562.0 = 6.7% BASE-YEAR AMOUNT 7,003.7 - 6,562.0 PowerPoint Slides Horizontal Analysis CURRENT-YEAR AMOUNT - BASE-YEAR AMOUNT BASE-YEAR AMOUNT 7,003.7 - 6,562.0 6,562.0 Net sales for Kellogg company increased approximately 6.7% from 1994 to 1995. = 6.7% 37
Percentage Change in Sales PowerPoint Slides Illustration 13-7 Percentage Change in Sales The percentage change in sales for each of the 5 years, assuming 1996 as the base period is: Kellogg Company Net Sales (in millions) Base Period 1994 2000 1999 1998 1997 1996 6954.7 6,984.2 6,762.1 6,830.1 6,676.6 104.2% 104.6% 101.3% 102.3% 100.0% 38
PowerPoint Slides 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. 45
Ratios Three types: Liquidity ratios Solvency ratios PowerPoint Slides Ratios Three types: Liquidity ratios Solvency ratios Profitability ratios Can provide clues to underlying conditions that may not be apparent from an inspection of the individual components.

Limitations Of Financial Analysis PowerPoint Slides 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. 107
PowerPoint Slides 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. 108
PowerPoint Slides Cost Traditional financial statements are based on historical cost and are not adjusted for price level changes. Comparisons of unadjusted financial data from different periods may be rendered invalid by significant inflation or deflation. 109
Alternative Accounting Methods PowerPoint Slides 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. 110
PowerPoint Slides Atypical Data Fiscal year-end data may not be typical of a company's financial condition during the year. 111
PowerPoint Slides Diversification Diversification in American industry also limits the usefulness of financial analysis. Many firms are so diverse they cannot be classified by industry. 112
