Financial measures of profitability, liquidity, efficiency, and leverage

Financial analysis refers to an activity of assessing financial statements to judge the financial performance of a company. It helps in assessing profitability, solvency, liquidity and stability. Financial statement analysis has three broad tools: Ratio Analysis, DuPont Analysis, and Common Size Financials. Ratio Analysis refers to the analysis of various pieces of financial information in the financial statements of a business. They are mainly used by external analysts to determine various aspects of a business, such as its profitability and liquidity. Analysts can use ratio analysis to compare a company’s financial performances to similar firms in the industry to understand the company’s position in the market.
