A business number by itself is generally useless for understanding the business. Most numbers are relative to some other part of the business.
This workshop will cover some classical business ratio’s that give you a quick insight into the business. We will explain how they are calculated, why they are often used and what they show to an investor.
We will cover return on investment, return on capital employed, stock turn, days to collect debt, GP and NP ratio, gearing and lock-up.
