Operating expenses
Net sales
= Operating expenses %

• Net operating profit percentage is gross margin minus
operating expenses divided by net sales
Gross margin - Operating expenses
Net sales

computers, store fixtures) owned or controlled by a
firm

the retailer by customers that have bought merchandise
on credit.
• Fixed Assets = Fixture, Stores (owned)

Analysis of Financial Strength
CHAPTER 6

• Cash-Flow Analysis
• Retailers need cash to meet their obligations — i.e.,
salary, rent, vendors, etc.
• Cash flow is calculated by making adjustments to net
profit involving adding or subtracting differences in
revenue and expenses that occur from one period to
the next.
6 - 23
Analysis of Financial Strength
CHAPTER 6

1
• Debt-Equity Ratio
• The retailer’s short- and long-term debt divided by the
value of the owners’ or stockholders’ equity.
• Current Ratio
• The is short-term assets divided by short-term
liabilities, it evaluates the retailer’s ability to pay its
short-term debt obligations.

• Quick Ratio
• “acid-test ratio”
• More stringent test because it removes inventory
from the short-term assets.
• If a retailer needs cash to pay its short-term liabilities,
it cannot rely on inventory to provide an immediate
source for cash.
