ANALISYS OF FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE

  1. The income statement (I.S.) or Profit and Loss Account (P&L)

The measurement of profit is probably the most important function of accounting. Investors, managers, bankers and others are interested in knowing how well a business is doing. The profit and loss account (income statement) shows the results of the flow of activity and transactions and is designed to report the profit performance of a business for a specific period of time, such as a year, quarter or month.



The purpose of income statement is to measure and report how much profit the business has generated over a period.

The measurement of profit requires that the total revenues of the business generated during a particular period, be calculated.

Revenue is simply a measure of the inflow of assets (cash or amounts owed to a business by debtors) or the reduction in liabilities which arise as a result of trading operations.

It is not necessary for a business to receive cash before recognizing that revenue has been earned. The accruals concept recognizes revenue which arises from the sale of goods or services on credit.

The total expenses relating to the period must also be calculated. An expense represents the outflow of assets (or increase in liabilities) which is incurred as a result of generating revenues.

Expenses are goods and services consumed in operating a business or other economic unit.

The income statement for a period shows the total revenue generated during a particular period and deducts from this the total expenses incurred in generating that revenue. The difference between the total revenue and total expenses will represent either profit (if revenues > expenses) or loss (if expenses > revenues).

Where revenues and expenses are equal for the period, the business is said to break even.

Profit (loss) = total revenue --- total expenses incurred to generate the revenue

The income statement and the balance sheet (B.S.) are closely related.

The profit and loss account can be viewed as linking the B.S. at the beginning of the period with the B.S. at the end of the period. Thus, at the commencement of business, a B.S. will be produced to reveal the opening financial position. After an appropriate period, an I.S. will be prepared to show the wealth generated over the period. A B.S will also be prepared to reveal the new financial position, at the end of the period covered by the I.S.

The B.S. will incorporate the changes in wealth which have occurred since the previous B.S. was drawn up.

The effect of making profit (loss) on the B.S. means that the B.S. equation can be extended as follows:


assets = capital + (--) profit (loss) + liabilities

(equity)

assets = equity + (revenues expenses) + liabilities

  1. Classification of expenses and revenues

Expenses and revenues are classified into three categories:

a)      operating expenses and revenues;

b)      financial expenses and revenues;

c)      extraordinary expenses and revenues.

Expenses may be classified into 2 categories:

٭ by type operation or by function

Operating activity + financial activity = ordinary activities

Extraordinary items are those items which derive from events or transactions outside the ordinary activities of the business and which are both material and expected not to recur frequently or regularly. They do not include items which, though exceptional on account of size or incidence, derive from ordinary activities of the business.

  1. Profit calculation


Operating revenues operating expenses = operating profit (loss)

Financial revenues financial expenses = financial profit (loss)

Ordinary revenues ordinary expenses = ordinary profit (loss)

Extraordinary revenues extraordinary expenses = profit (loss)

on extraordinary activity

Profit (loss) on ordinary activities + Profit (loss) on extraordinary = activities = Profit (loss) for the financial year

less (Income tax)

= Net Profit (loss) for the financial year.

By type of operation or function operating expenses may be classified in:

- cost of sales;

Turnover -- cost of sales = gross profit or loss. This represents the profit from simply buying and selling goods without taking into account any other expenses or revenues associated with the business.
