    Financial Case Analysis: Star River

    Initial Assessment: An initial look at the ratio analysis reveals that the annual sales-growth rate has been holding around 15%. This is perhaps the only good news from the analysis. A performance discontinuity makes its appearance in FY 2000 as a drop in operating margin. This was a result of a 21% increase in production costs and expenses and a 20% increase in admin and selling expenses. There was also an inexplicable 95% increase in inventory. This jump in inventory and operating expenses appears to have been financed through debt, as the debt/equity and debt/total capital ratios increased during this period. Since the sales growth rate has held steady, there has been…

    Competition Bikes Task 1

    The horizontal analysis is a method used to analyze changes in the company’s financial health between years in values of dollars and percentages using data from the balance sheet and income statement. In the horizontal analysis a base year is set and then other years are compared to the base year. The horizontal analysis will be used to assess Competition Bikes actual financial operating performance based on the time period between years 6 through 8, with year 6 set as the base year. Starting with an analysis between year 6 and year 7, we look at the horizontal financial changes to determine actual performance by the percentages. Net sales in years 6 and 7 reflect a change of $1,495,000 at a 33% increase change. This change is positive which translates into higher sales which also mean the operating performance was good for the company and customers really liked the products. The cost of goods sold reflects a change of $1,048,000 at a 31% increase change. This percentage is financial strength for company again which means the customer liked the products. This percentage should remain lower than the net sales, and the percentage reflect an added strength for the company because this percentage is lower than net sales, so here the Competition Bikes has control over the cost of making the Bikes to increase revenue. In the same years (6 and 7) the horizontal comparison ratio for gross profits reflected a change of $447,000 which is a positive increase of 37.5%. Therefore, 37.5% of each dollar from sales was retained after the cost of…
