Formula Key

Current Ratio = Total Current Assets / Total Current Liabilities
Quick Ratio = (Cash + Trade Debtors) / Total Current Liabilities
Gross Profit Margin = Gross Profit / Turnover
Net Profit Margin = Adjusted Pre-Tax Profit / Turnover
Stock Days = (Stock / COGS) * 365
Trade Debtor Days = (Trade Debtors / Turnover) * 365
Trade Creditor Days = (Trade Creditors / COGS) * 365
Interest Coverage Ratio = EBITDA / Interest Payments
Debt-to-Equity Ratio = Total Liabilities / Total Equity
Debt Service Coverage Ratio = EBITDA / (Prior Period CPLTD + Interest Payments)
Return on Equity = Net Income / Total Equity
Return on Assets = Net Income / Total Assets
Gross Fixed Asset Turnover = Turnover / Tangible Assets
Turnover per Employee = Turnover / Total Employees (FTE)
Profit per Employee = Adjusted Pre-Tax Profit / Total Employees (FTE)
Profit Growth = (Current Period Adjusted Pre-Tax Profit – Prior Period Adjusted Pre-Tax Profit) / Prior Period Adjusted Pre-Tax Profit
Turnover Growth = (Current Period Turnover – Prior Period Turnover) / Prior Period Turnover
