RATIO ANALYSIS

A company's financial information is contained in 3 basic financial statements the balance sheet, the trading and profit and loss account and profit and loss appropriation account. These statements are very useful to different parties concerned such as management, creditors, investors and so on. These statements may be more fruitfully used if they are analysed an interpreted to have an insight into the strengths and weakness of the firm.
Analysis of statements means such a treatment of the information contained in the two statements as to afford a diagnosis of the profitability and financial position of the firm concerned. In the analysis of financial statements, the analyst has variety of tools available from which he can choose those best suited to his specific purpose.
