Dynamic Analysis of Financial Ratios Z′ j,t = A′ j + B′ j W′ j,t-1 + ′ j,t, (2.5) where Z′ j,t = log (Y j,t ) - log (Y j,t-1 ); W′ j,t-1 = log (X j,t-1 ) - log (Y j,t-1 ); and ′ j,t = The Error term.

Statistical Distribution of Financial Ratios where and 2 are the population mean and variance, respectively, and e and are given constants; that is, = and e =
Statistical Distribution of Financial Ratios There is a direct relationship between the normal distribution and the log-normal distribution. If Y is log- normally distributed, then X = log Y is normally distributed. Following this definition, the mean and the variance of Y can be defined as: where exp represents an exponential with base e.

2.5 COST-VOLUME-PROFIT ANALYSIS AND ITS APPLICATIONS Deterministic analysis Stochastic analysis
2.5.1 Deterministic Analysis Operating Profit = EBIT = Q(P - V) - F, (2.12) where Q = Quantity of goods sold; P = Price per unit sold; V = Variable cost per unit sold; F = Total amount of fixed costs; and P - V = Contribution margin.
2.5.1 Deterministic Analysis (cont’d) If operating profit is equal to zero, Eq. (2.12) implies that Q(P-V)-F=0 or that Q(P-V)=F, that is, Equation (2.13) represents the break-even quantity, or that quantity of sales at which fixed costs are just covered. The definition of the degree of operating leverage (DOL) is, Based upon the definition of linear break-even quantity defined in Eq. (2.13), the degree of operating leverage can be rewritten as
2.5.2 Stochastic Analysis In reality, net profit is a random variable because the quantity used in the analysis should be the quantity sold, which is unknown and random, rather than the quantity produced, which is internally determined. This is the simplest form of stochastic CVP analysis; for there is only one stochastic variable and one need not be concerned about independence among the variables. The distribution of sales is shown graphically in Fig. 2.5.
2.6 ACCOUNTING INCOME VS. ECONOMIC INCOME E t = A t + P t, (2.17) where E t = Economic income, A t = Accounting earnings, and P t = Proxy errors.
2.7 SUMMARY In this chapter, the usefulness of accounting information in financial analysis is conceptually and analytically evaluated. Both statistical methods and regression analysis techniques are used to show how accounting information can be used to perform active financial analysis for the pharmaceutical industry. In these analyses, static ratio analysis is generalized to dynamic ratio analysis. The necessity of using simultaneous-equation technique in conducting dynamic financial ratio analysis is also demonstrated in detail. In addition, both deterministic and stochastic CVP analyses are examined. The potential applications of CVP analysis in financial analysis and planning are discussed in some detail. Overall, this chapter gives readers a good understanding of basic accounting information and econometric methods, which are needed for financial analysis and planning.
