Come fare il preventivo per un ristorante
In tutte le attività è fondamentale prendere con tranquillità le decisioni sulla situazione economica e finanziaria durante l'anno, soprattutto con la possibilità di intervenire in anticipo prima che sia troppo tardi. Per questo motivo Banana Contabilità ha previsto nei propri modelli la funzionalità "Preventivo", nel quale poter creare il budget del proprio ristorante.
Vogliamo aiutarti passo dopo passo con la stesura del preventivo e, per fare ciò, devi solamente seguire le indicazioni riportate qui di seguito. È facile e veloce, così potrai subito concentrarti a gestire la tua attività e occuparti dei clienti!
1. Inserisci le Entrate
Devi fare riferimento alle entrate certe, ma per avere un'idea puoi basarti sulle entrate dell'anno precedente.
Principalmente le entrate comprendono:
- Vendite cibo
- Vendite bevande
Nel caso di un ristorante è molto utile dividere le vendite di cibo e bevande per mese, in quanto possono variare molto in base alle festività e al periodo durante l'anno. Ovviamente potrai liberamente personalizzare le voci delle vendite, ad esempio renderle più dettagliate per le tipologie di cibo e bevande.
Inoltre ci possono essere anche entrate non legate all'attività principale:
- Rendite immobiliari
- Interessi attivi bancari e postali
Per le indicazioni su come inserire tecnicamente i dati del preventivo nel programma Banana Contabilità puoi consultare la pagina Tabella preventivo.

2. Inserisci le uscite fisse e variabili
Devi elencare tutte le spese che prevedi di avere durante l'anno. Anche in questo caso puoi basarti sulle spese dell'anno precedente e riflettere su eventuali variazioni e modificare gli importi.
Le principale spese possono essere:
- Acquisti di merce o materie prime (cibo e bevande)
- Stipendi
- Attrezzature
- Contributi previdenziali
- Assicurazioni del personale
- Assicurazioni macchine e cose
- Affitto o ipoteca ed interessi
- Imposte e tasse
- Luce, acqua e gas
- Spese telefoniche e internet
- Pulizia
- Pubblicità
Anche per quanto riguarda le spese di cibo e bevande è molto utile dividerle per mese.

3. Controlla le entrate e le uscite
Dopo aver stilato tutte le entrate e le uscite è il momento di confrontarle, per scoprire se si riesce a raggiungere l'obiettivo principale del guadagno.
Per fare il confronto bisogna avere il report del Preventivo: se stai usando il nostro modello di Banana Contabilità, basta che vai in Report > Rendiconto abbellito con gruppi, e scegli un preventivo che desideri (di solito quello più utile in questo caso è il preventivo annuale).
Controllando il Preventivo potrai verificare a quanto ammonteranno la liquidità, i debiti e il totale patrimonio, in base alle spese ed entrate preventivate.
Avendo un quadro generale delle spese e delle entrate, potrai accorgerti se hai sopravvalutato o sottovalutato alcune spese o entrate.
Se ti trovi con una probabile perdita, è meglio pensare già da subito dove poter risparmiare, valutando le varie spese che hai elencato e modificando gli importi.

4. La verifica a fine anno con il consuntivo
A fine anno quando avrai finito di registrare tutti i movimenti potrai preparare un report, che ti farà vedere gli importi di tutti i conti del consuntivo e confrontarli con quelli preventivati. Potrai verificare con certezza se il tuo preventivo preparato a inizio anno è risultato attendibile e se sei riuscito a guadagnare quanto previsto a inizio anno.
Per avere il confronto del consuntivo con il preventivo vai nel menu Report, clicca su Rendiconto abbellito con gruppi e scegli Confronto consuntivo e preventivo.
Se dovesse variare di molto, potrai controllare su quali entrate o uscite ti sei sbagliato e correggere gli importi nel preventivo del nuovo anno.

Definizione e principi degli IFRS per SME
Definizione degli IFRS per SME
Gli standard IFRS sono un insieme di standard contabili adottati a livello globale per il financial statement delle aziende medio-piccole con l’obiettivo di garantire trasparenza, affidabilità e comparabilità delle informazioni finanziarie delle aziende.
Sono stati emessi dall’International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), un’organizzazione indipendente con sede a Londra, composta da un gruppo di esperti con la funzione di definire i principi contabili, preparare, revisionare o utilizzare i rendiconti finanziari e usarli nella formazione contabile.
All’emissione di una nuova norma da parte dello IASB, ci dev’essere l’approvazione dall’Unione Europea. Nello specifico processo di approvazione la responsabilità è della Commissione europea con altri organismi consuntivi.
Obiettivi degli IFRS
Lo scopo principale è creare una struttura contabile comune alla maggior parte delle imprese che operano all’interno della Comunità Europea, avendo come vantaggio più semplicità e trasparenza rispetto ai bilanci e alle informazioni finanziarie.
Gli obiettivi si caratterizzano in diversi aspetti come di seguito:
Trasparenza
fornire agli stakeholder le informazioni chiare e dettagliate sullo stato e le performance finanziarie aziendali.
Affidabilità
report finanziari che siano corrispettivi della realtà aziendale e che siano affidabili.
Uniformità
riportare informazioni finanziarie confrontabili a livello globale.
Rilevanza
assicurare che le informazioni importanti siano fornite ai potenziali investitori e altri stakeholder.
I principi fondamentali degli IFRS per SME
Le caratteristiche degli standard IFRS si basano su alcuni principi come spiegato di seguito:
Rilevazione completa
Tutte le informazioni rilevanti devono essere integralmente divulgate.
Principio della sostanza sulla forma
Le operazioni devono essere contabilizzate e rappresentate in base alla loro essenza e realtà economica, non soltanto alla loro forma giuridica.
Principio di prudenza
Le incertezze e i rischi devono essere debitamente presi in considerazione.
Valutazione al fair value
Numerose poste di bilancio devono essere misurate al loro valore equo (fair value), anziché al costo originario di acquisizione.
Caratteristiche qualitative delle informazioni finanziarie
Comprensibilità
La presentazione delle informazioni sui rendiconti finanziari dovrebbe essere comprensibile riguardo le attività commerciali e economiche dell’azienda. Tale principio non permette di omettere informazioni importanti poiché diventerebbe difficile da comprendere per alcuni utenti.
Comparabilità
Le informazioni relative ad un’entità sono utili se possono essere confrontabili con altre informazioni simili di altre entità. Questa caratteristica permette agli stakeholder di identificare e comprendere le somiglianze e differenze rispetto alle realtà contabili aziendali.
Verificabilità
La verificabilità aiuta ad assicurare una rappresentazione fedele delle informazioni contabili e finanziarie dell’azienda. Le informazioni quantificate contabili non devono essere forzatamente una stima puntuale per essere verificabili.
Tempestività
La tempestività significa avere la disponibilità di informazioni in tempo utile per prendere delle decisioni. In tal senso più le informazioni sono vecchie meno sono utili. Ci sono delle eccezioni: si sottolinea che per alcune informazioni possono essere anche meno tempestive siccome c’è una valutazione su un arco di tempo maggiore per studiare e identificare delle tendenze.
Riferimenti:
Composizione degli IFRS per SME
Introduzione
Secondo l’articolo 3.17 del documento “Exposure Draft IFRS for SMEs® Accounting Standard - Third edition of the IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard – September 2022”, la struttura deve includere tutti i seguenti documenti per avere un set completo di bilancio:
- Financial statement.
- Income Statement.
- Statement of changes in equity.
- Cash flow.
- Notes.
Referenze
Statement of financial position
È un documento che rappresenta la situazione patrimoniale e finanziaria di un’azienda. Il bilancio è separato da attività correnti e non correnti, ed è composto da attivi, capitale proprio e passivi.
Gli elementi dell’attività corrente comprendono risorse che si prevedono siano liquidate o utilizzate come parte delle operazioni aziendali usuali entro un anno dalla data del bilancio. La distinzione è particolarmente utile agli investitori che identificano in presenza di un ciclo operativo il capitale circolante netto rispetto al capitale usato per operazioni a lungo termine.
Esiste anche un’altra presentazione dei conti che si basa sul grado di liquidità, ma è adatta a realtà bancarie e a istituti finanziari che non forniscono beni o servizi entro un termine operativo identificabile.
Le attività non correnti sono risorse aziendali che si prevede rimarranno in uso per un periodo esteso oltre i dodici mesi dalla chiusura del bilancio o oltre il ciclo operativo.
Le passività a breve termine (correnti) sono quelle esigibili entro il consueto ciclo operativo oppure entro dodici mesi dalla data di riferimento del bilancio. I debiti commerciali devono essere sempre classificati come passività a breve termine anche se il loro regolamento avverrà oltre il normale ciclo operativo o oltre dodici mesi dalla data di bilancio.
Le passività a lungo termine (non correnti) sono quelle esigibili oltre il consueto ciclo operativo o oltre dodici mesi dalla data di riferimento del bilancio.
Income statement
L’income statement è la rappresentazione del conto economico ed è classificato secondo il metodo delle by nature of expense.
La classificazione per natura è una delle possibilità disponibili dagli IFRS per SME, ed essendo quella più semplice e flessibile a più realtà aziendali, è stato deciso di implementare questa.
Il concetto è che i costi sono aggregati secondo la loro natura, come ad esempio ammortamento, acquisti di materiali, costi di trasporto.
Esiste anche la classificazione secondo la destinazione dei costi, dove i costi vengono distinti con i costi del venduto. La stessa fornisce informazioni più significative ma richiede un considerevole margine discrezionale al redattore del bilancio.
Statement of changes in equity
Il prospetto delle variazioni del patrimonio netto di un’azienda tra due esercizi rispecchia le variazioni del patrimonio netto dato l’incremento o il decremento delle sue attività nette d’esercizio o della ricchezza generata, in base ai criteri di valutazione specifici implementati e indicati nel bilancio.
Cash flow
Gli IFRS per le PMI prevedono che le entità debbano classificare le loro transazioni in tre attività distinte:
- Operativo.
- Investimento.
- Finanziamento.
Consente inoltre alle entità di presentare i propri flussi di cassa operativi utilizzando il metodo diretto o indiretto. In definitiva, l’obiettivo del quadro è quello di fornire agli utenti informazioni utili alle decisioni, aiutandoli a fare scelte economiche informate.
Notes
Le note al bilancio rappresentano una parte fondamentale del reporting finanziario secondo gli IFRS per le PMI. Esse forniscono informazioni aggiuntive e di dettaglio che integrano e spiegano i dati presentati nei prospetti contabili principali.
Inoltre, svolgono un ruolo cruciale nel garantire la trasparenza e la completezza dell'informativa finanziaria, consentendo agli utilizzatori del bilancio di comprendere appieno la situazione patrimoniale, economica e finanziaria dell'impresa.
In conclusione, rappresentano quindi uno strumento essenziale per migliorare la trasparenza e la comparabilità dell'informativa finanziaria a livello internazionale.

Struttura del file Excel
Introduzione
In questa pagina vi é la spiegazione completa di come utilizzare il file, di cosa trovare al suo interno e della sua logica.
Oltremodo, vi sono illustrate delle immagini e figure d'esempio utili a spiegare come utilizzare il file Excel. Gli importi visualizzati in queste immagini sono puramente a scopo illustrativo e non riflettono necessariamente valori reali o significativi.
Referenze del documento
Per la creazione della struttura contabile all’interno del modello Excel si è seguito le indicazioni della documentazione relativa agli standard IFRS per SME.
Nello specifico la documentazione è composta da:
- Principi contabili, note e altro: “Exposure Draft IFRS for SMEs Accounting Standard” di settembre 2022;
- La presentazione dei conti e delle note esplicative: “IFRS Taxonomy Illustrated IFRS Accounting Taxonomy 2023”.
Descrizione della struttura del file
Il modello Excel è suddiviso in dieci parti principali:
- General information.
- Financial Statement.
- Income Statement.
- Financial Statement detailed.
- Income Statement detailed.
- Statement of changes in equity.
- Cash flow indirect.
- Notes of financial statements.
- Notes of income statement.
- Notes of cash flow statement.
Per avere un set completo del bilancio secondo gli IFRS per SME é obbligatorio compilare i fogli relativi alle informazioni generali (General information), alle informazioni di bilancio (Financial Statement e Notes of financial statements), alle informazioni di conto economico (Income statement e Notes of income statement), il prospetto delle variazioni nel patrimonio netto (Statement of changes in equity) e il rendiconto dei flussi con metodo indiretto (Cash flow indirect e Notes of cash flow statement).
I fogli Financial Statement detailed e Income Statement detailed, sono un'alternativa rispetto alla procedura di compilazione precisata prima, in quanto integrano tutto l'aspetto del Financial Statement e del Income Statement, con tutti i conti dettagliati dalle note, avendo una visione di diretta della composizione e la struttura di un conto con le note.
Organizzazione del file
Contenuto del file
Il file contiene sette campi:
- Campo principale.
- Conto principale.
- Sottocategoria del conto principale.
- Codice.
- Formula.
- Nota.
- Importo del conto.
Nel campo principale, si specifica il nome del conto principale, la referenza del documento e un'informazione generica dell'azienda.
Il conto principale è il nome del conto principale.
La sottocategoria del conto principale è visualizzabile soltanto se si usa il foglio Statement Financial detailed e Statement Income detailed. È un conto ripreso dalle note e serve a dettagliare la struttura di un conto, come richiesto nelle note degli IFRS per SME.
Il codice è utilizzato per il modello contabile di Banana e serve per identificare il conto.
La formula è applicata per totali e subtotali dei conti.
La nota è specifica al conto ed é inserita per alcuni conti come secondo la documentazione degli IFRS per SME.
L'importo del conto è un numero a due decimali senza indicazioni sulla valuta.
Alcuni campi non sono modificabili in quanto sono parte essenziale della struttura del file. L'unica parte da modificare sono gli importi da inserire per i vari conti e le descrizioni nel foglio note.
La legenda sotto riassume quanto scritto in riferimento a cosa corrispondono i campi e quali sono e non sono modificabili.

General information
Nel foglio General information si inseriscono le informazioni essenziali necessarie agli IFRS per SME.
Le informazioni essenziali sono utili per comprendere i dati anagrafici dell’azienda, il periodo di attività contabile di riferimento, la valuta usata, le attività principali e il contenuto di tale file che è la struttura completa del financial statement.
Alcune informazioni quali nome dell’azienda, ragione sociale, domicilio e periodo contabile di riferimento viene riportato su tutti i fogli nello specifico per la parte di Identifying information of company.

Come viene mostrato nell'immagine, le informazioni inserite in questo foglio vengono riportate su tutti i fogli, cosicché si possa identificare la società su ogni documento IFRS, come ad esempio: la denominazione completa della società, l'indirizzo e la sede, l'esercizio contabile di inizio e di fine da considerare ai fini della contabilità.
Statement of financial position
Nel Financial Statement sono contenute tutte le voci di conto relative alle posizioni correnti e non correnti dell’attività aziendale per gli anni 2023 e 2024.
In questa parte è richiesto che si inseriscano gli importi di bilancio nei conti specifici. I totali e sotto totali vengono calcolati automaticamente dalle formule.
Bisogna inoltre osservare che per alcuni conti è obbligatorio compilare le Note. Per farlo si inseriscono gli importi e altre note descrittive nel foglio “Notes of Finacial Statement ”.
Qualora un conto abbia le note, il suo importo dell'ultimo anno fa riferimento alla cella corrispondente del totale del conto messo nelle note, perciò é necessario prima compilare gli importi nelle note.
Per le note c’è anche la possibilità di consultare la documentazione indicata nel campo "Reference documentation", con specificata la pagina e la sezione dove trovare le informazioni relative alle note.
C’è infine un’ultima parte di controllo per verificare se il totale degli attivi e dei passivi risultano essere uguali.
Modalità d'uso

Nella figura mostrata, si é selezionata una parte dello Statement of financial position, come esempio esplicativo come guida per l'utente. Nell'immagine ci sono tre parti evidenziate:
- Le note.
- Le formule.
- I dati da compilare.
Ogni parte ha una sua specifica funzione ed in alcuni casi i dati sono direttamente collegati tra loro.
Nello specifico se un conto ha delle note, significa che nel saldo finale (31.12.xx) ci sarà il totale dell'importo calcolato nel foglio "Notes of financial statement". Questo implica che per modificare quell'importo, bisogna compilare i dati del conto nel foglio "Notes of financial statement".
In questo foglio quindi bisogna:
- Verificare che il conto non sia collegato a delle note e inserire l'importo del conto.
- Se esistono delle note, allora bisogna compilare solo la parte del foglio "Notes of financial statement".
Le formule integrate in questo foglio faranno i totali e subtotali dei conti del Statement of financial position.
Income Statement
L’Income Statement è presentato secondo la classificazione “by nature of expense”.
Questa classificazione è un’aggregazione dei costi secondo la loro natura (esempio ammortamento, acquisti di materiali, costi di trasporto, stipendi, costi pubblicità, ecc.) e non sono ripartiti in base alla loro destinazione all’interno dell’impresa.
L’implementazione di tale classificazione è stata decisa perché è semplice e di diffusa applicazione per le PMI. L’altra classificazione era secondo i costi per destinazione, dove si faceva distinzione tra i costi del venduto rispetto agli altri costi (esempio costi di distribuzione o costi amministrativi) e tale rappresentazione richiede un considerevole grado di discrezionalità da parte dell’utente finale.
Come precedentemente fatto per il Financial Statement, ci sono gli importi da inserire mentre i totali sono già calcolati mediante le formule applicate nei fogli.
Inoltre è stata fatta un’ulteriore suddivisione per EBIT (earnings before interest and tax) e EBT (earnings before interest).
Modalità d'uso

In questa figura vengono evidenziate le parti importanti dell'Income statement.
Guardando i conti, ci sono delle indicazioni relativi ai segni (+/-) da utilizzare nelle varie circostanze, ciò implica che per i conti che hanno il segno sia positivo che negativo, ci sia una valutazione sull'impatto positivo o negativo di tale importo sul risultato del Income Statement.
Come precedentemente visto nel documento "Statement of financial position", anche in questo caso ci sono le note da inserire nel relativo foglio "Notes of income statement" per poter definire correttamente l'importo, siccome quest'ultimo dipende dal totale in note.
In sintesi quello che bisogna fare in questo foglio sono i seguenti passaggi:
- Valutare le circostanze del conto che abbia indicato il segno sia positivo che negativo e comprendere se ci si trova in una situazione in cui esso ha impatto positivo o negativo sul risultato.
- Verificare che il conto non sia collegato a delle note e inserire l'importo corrispettivo con il segno corretto.
- Se il conto é corrispettivo con le note, allora bisogna compilare solo il foglio "Notes of income statement".
Statement Financial detailed
Questo documento si differenzia dallo Statement of financial position in quanto ci sono maggiori dettagli relativi ai conti. La presentazione ufficiale dei conti si trova nel foglio "Statement of financial position" per come sono riassunti i conti, in questo foglio invece abbiamo un dettaglio maggiorato, con l'obiettivo di evitare di compilare le note direttamente nel foglio specifico. L'utilizzo di questo foglio esclude l'uso del foglio "Statement of financial position" perché fanno riferimento alle stesse note.
La differenza sostanziale é che si mostrano non soltanto i conti principali richiesti come presentazione dagli IFRS per SME, ma vengono dettagliati in sottocategorie di conti che sono i medesimi che si ritrovano nelle note, di modo che usando questo documento si può evitare di compilare le note, utilizzando soltanto le sottocategorie di conto, eccetto in alcuni casi che il conto richiede dei dettagli di tipo testuale descrittivo, senza usare formule di calcolo o importi. Per questa ragione, non sono integrate tutte le parti di note visto che alcuni conti serve una descrizione di tipo testuale.
Per distinguere i conti principali dalle sottocategorie di conti sono state colorate le categorie principali con colore scuro, mentre quelle chiare sono i conti relativi a quelli delle note.
Per sapere se ci sono note di tipo testo, é sufficiente che non ci siano sottocategorie di conti (colorate di chiaro), allora significa che bisogna andare nel foglio specifico Notes of Statement o financial position.
Modalità d'uso

In questa immagine, si possono visualizzare quattro parti essenziali del documento:
- Conti principali.
- Sottocategorie dei conti principali.
- Le note.
- Gli importi da inserire.
- Le formule.
Questa parte, vi é maggiore dettagli soltanto se un conto ha delle note, altrimenti è uguale allo "Statement of financial position". Ciò che richiede attenzione é la verifica di un conto qualora é un conto con le note e non ha sottocategorie di conti, se ci si trova in questa situazione allora significa che il conto richiede un ulteriore descrizione testuale per definire alcune peculiarità nel foglio "Notes of financial statement".
Per i conti invece che hanno le note ma anche le sottocategorie di conto, bisogna compilare soltanto gli importi delle sottocategorie del conto specifico. In questo modo, compilato tutti gli importi delle sottocategorie del conto, le formule applicate alle sottocategorie calcoleranno i subtotali e il totale del conto principale.
Quindi riassumendo il procedimento di compilazione di questo foglio é:
- Inserisco gli importi nei conti principali se non ci sono note a cui fa riferimento.
- Se il conto principale ha note, verifico che abbia le sottocategorie di conti, se non c'è le ha, allora vado nel foglio "Notes of financial statement" e compilo la descrizione testuale.
- Se invece il conto principale ha note e ha le sottocategorie di conti, allora compilo soltanto gli importi delle sottocategorie.

In questa immagine d'esempio nella parte di Equity, viene illustrato un caso in cui un conto sia con note ma senza sottocategorie di conto, che richiede una descrizione testuale nel foglio "Notes of financial statement" e un caso normale in cui ci sono le note con le sottocategorie di conti.
Income statement detailed
Income statement detail si basa sulla stessa logica del Statement of financial detailed, con l'obiettivo di fornire un documento unico per la sua funzione, dettagliato dai conti delle note, senza dover compilare il foglio "Notes of income statement".
Ci sono i conti principali e quando ci sono le note, vengono dettagliati dalle sottocategorie di conti che ne fanno parte.
Modalità d'uso

Come illustrato nella figura sopra, ci sono quattro parti uguali al foglio "Statement of financial detailed" con la stessa logica.
L'unica differenza é che non ci sono note di tipo descrittivo, perciò tutti i conti con note sono già con le loro sottocategorie senza che richieda una compilazione ulteriore sul foglio "Notes of income statement".
Pertanto, per riassumere, è essenziale attenersi a questi passaggi:
- Inserire gli importi dei conti principali se non hanno le note.
- Se il conto principale ha delle note, inserire gli importi soltanto nelle sottocategorie di conto.
The Statement of Changes in Equity
Lo Statement of changes in equity riflette i cambiamenti e le variazioni di capitale proprio.
Questa parte permette di approfondire e a dare trasparenza sulle decisioni e sull’effetto delle stesse sul valore di capitale proprio. Inoltre è un utile strumento per investitori e altri stakeholder per comprendere come l’azienda abbia generato e utilizzato il capitale proprio.
Modalità d'uso

Nel foglio "Statement of changes equity" come mostrato dall'immagine, c'è una parte da porre attenzione.
La prima é la valutazione della variazione della voce di conto, se questa aumenta o diminuisce e successivamente in base all'indicazione del segno (+/-) bisogna scrivere l'importo con il segno corretto.
A differenza di altri documenti, questo non richiede note.
Quindi il processo di compilazione del documento é:
- Valutare la variazione di conto e seguire le indicazioni sul foglio sul segno da assumere nelle varie circostanze (aumento o diminuzione del conto).
- Inserire l'importo con il segno corretto.
Cash flow indirect
Questo documento redige l’entità in quattro parti:
1. Cash flow da attività operative;
2. Cash flow da attività di investimento;
3. Cash flow da attività finanziarie;
4. Cash flow netto.
Il documento è indipendente dagli altri fogli, quindi bisogna fare i propri calcoli per dedurre i vari importi da inserire nelle voci del cash flow.
I conti sono stati ripresi dalla tassonomia dell’IFRS per SME, in prima parte ci sono gli aggiustamenti del profitto o perdita per poi successivamente calcolare le attività operative.
Le attività di investimento sono caratterizzate dall’acquisto o vendita di attività fisse come attrezzature, immobili, partecipazioni join venture e altro.
I flussi da attività da finanziamento sono legati alle fonti di finanziamento dell’azienda, come leasing, emissioni di azioni, pagamento rimborsi di debiti o proventi da finanziamenti. C'è anche il pagamento dei dividendi agli azionisti.
Nell’ultima parte del cash flow ci sono delle precisazioni da fare. La variazione netta della liquidità viene valutata in due fasi, la prima è calcolata prima dell’effetto della variazione dei tassi di cambio e la seconda dopo tale variazione. Inoltre, come forma di controllo viene anche calcolata la variazione di liquidità, mostrando i cambiamenti del periodo di attività, calcolando la differenza tra il saldo della liquidità iniziale e quella finale.
Modalità d'uso

Così come evidenziato dalla figura del Cash flow per le attività di investimento, si possono identificare tre componenti principali:
- I conti principali mostrano il segno a dipendenza della situazione.
- Per alcuni conti é richiesto la compilazione del foglio "Notes of cash flow statement".
- L'inserimento degli importi, richiede attenzione rispetto al segno.
Nel cash flow é richiesto un ragionamento sulle implicazioni dei conti di bilancio e conto economico per concludere che importo inserire nella voce specifica del conto dei flussi, quindi la conclusione a dipendenza di quale conto dei flussi si é analizzato, potrebbe essere un aumento o un decremento di un'attivo, un pagamento per acquisto immobili, il pagamento dei dividendi agli azionisti,...
Non esiste un foglio adibito a questo scopo, l'utente deve ragionare con gli importi a disposizione, inseriti nel bilancio e nel conto economico e arrivare alle proprie conclusioni.
Successivamente, avendo un importo, bisogna distinguere la situazione come indicato nel foglio, per inserire l'importo con il segno corretto.
In ultimo, nell'eventualità che lo richieda compilare la parte di "Notes of cash flow statement" con gli importi specifici del caso.
Notes
Le note sono suddivise per i tre documenti degli IFRS:
1) Note del Financial Statement.
2) Note del Income Statement.
3) Note del Cash Flow.
Come riportato nella parte introduttiva le note servono per completare le informazioni riprese dai documenti finanziari.
Il foglio note contiene quattro parti essenziali: il codice note, il conto di riferimento, importo e note (testo).
Il codice note è la referenza per ogni parte dei documenti che serve a comprendere in quale conto è necessario compilare le note.
Il conto rappresenta il conto ripreso dal documento (Financial Statement, Income Statement, Cash flow) che deve essere dettagliato nelle note.
L'importo è singolare per il conto dettagliato e non è sempre richiesto perché in alcuni casi c'è solo bisogno una descrizione testuale.
Le note come testo sono necessarie qualora ci siano casistiche che richiedono soltanto una descrizione o una personalizzazione più dettagliata per esplicare un conto.
Modalità d'uso
Caso per il Financial Statement

Figure of Excel in the sheet Notes of financial statement
In questa immagine si può osservare quattro componenti principali, il codice di riferimento del conto, il conto, il dettaglio che raggruppa le sottocategorie di conti, gli importi da inserire con le eventuali note testuali.
Il punto di partenza per compilare questo foglio é quindi il financial statement, dove ci sono elencati quali conti abbiano necessità di maggiore dettaglio, per poi passare successivamente al completamento delle informazioni nel foglio delle note.
La parte di inserimento dati riguarda l'importo del conto di dettaglio e l'eventuale testo descrittivo.
Il totale e i subtotali del conto, sono calcolati dalle formule, il totale del conto viene riportato nel foglio principale del financial statement, perciò é fondamentale che se un conto ha necessità di note, venga compilato soltanto nel foglio delle note.
Caso Income Statement

Figure of Excel in the sheet Notes of income statement
Come visto precedentemente, la struttura non cambia per le note degli Income statement. Le parti principali sono sempre le medesime, come anche per le note del cash flow.
Per riassumere quindi in questo processo bisogna:
- A dipendenza di quale foglio si stia compilando, bisogna controllare che il conto analizzato del financial statement, dell'income statement o del cash flow ci sia la nota di riferimento.
- Bisogna compilare tutti i dati e le informazioni necessarie.
- Qualora ci sia un sottoconto delle note non necessario o non usato, si può semplicemente lasciarlo vuoto o inserire l'importo zero.
Obiettivi del file
Il processo della creazione della struttura IFRS per SME ha preso in analisi la documentazione ufficiale e ricostruito una struttura nel modello Excel, con l’obiettivo di permettere all’utente di seguire la logica di reporting IFRS, inserendo le informazioni principali nelle parti presenti nel file.
Le caratteristiche alla base di tale file è la completezza del documento avendo tutte le parti principali richieste per gli IFRS, l’utilità nel prediligere i modelli più usati e più consoni a più realtà aziendali ed escludere altri modelli più specializzati solo in determinati contesti.
Il risultato finale è di avere una visione finanziaria ed economica sulla situazione aziendale del periodo specifico, in conformità con gli standard IFRS per SME.
Inoltre, in ottica dei principi degli IFRS per SME si vuole migliorare la comparabilità dei dati finanziari tra diverse aziende, facilitare l’analisi e l’interpretazione dei risultati finanziari da parte di stakeholder esterni dall’azienda e promuovere l’adozione degli IFRS per SME dando uno strumento pratico ed accessibile.

Introduction
What is exactly the financial statement analysis?
Financial statement analysis is an accounting tool that provides an assessment of a company's economic, financial and asset condition. It is based on the financial statements and reports the data. It contains the profits and losses of a company and therefore serves to derive the general performance of the company.
Why is this activity very important for your SME ?
Until recently there were few SMEs that often used a financial statement analysis as larger companies could use it.
Today, times have changed. Reading the numbers well can make a difference within the strategy and management of an enterprise. Understanding which products it is worth investing in and which jobs can be neglected determines the difference between the growth or decline of a company.
This activity can be a source of interest for various subjects, external or internal to the company. Entities or external individuals can analyse their solvency profile (current or potential lenders), capacity to provide an adequate return on capital (for those who want to buy shares for example) or even just obtain information on the company's situation with respect to competition in the sector.
Through the comparative balance sheet analysis of the various elements available, it is possible to arrive at the following formulation of a "judgement" on the health of the company in all its dimensions:
- Economic
- Asset
- Financial
How it works
The financial statement analysis is based on two fundamental documents for a company:
- The Balance sheet
- The Profit and loss statement
In order to perform a correct analysis, it is always necessary to start from the reclassification of the accounts, which includes 3 phases in particular.
- Group the account items into groups
- Order such groups
- Bringing out intermediate results
The reclassification allows for a slightly cleaner first view of the company's situation and is already useful information can be obtained from it.
Analysis by Indexes
Once the intermediate results have been obtained, it is possible to proceed with the calculation of the indices useful for the analysis. The financial statements analysis by means of indexes is a very powerful tool that allows you to use indicators capable of providing a very concise assessment of one's own situation.
How should the data be interpreted?
Better results in terms of interpretation and evaluation are therefore achieved by analysing a series of balance sheets and studying the trend over time of the significant balance sheet ratios, so as to understand in which management is moving the company (dynamic financial statements analysis).
How do I evaluate them?
- Temporal evolution
- Comparison with average values of the sector
- Comparison with "normal" values i.e. with the benchmark
- Comparison with objectives
Response to results
This is the last activity of the analysis cycle, where the "relay" passes into the hands of those who deal with the Management of the Company, with data that speak clearly, the Manager will have to plan how to proceed using the right Project Management techniques.
The report contain errors?
If you notice incorrect data within the report or find that for some reason the calculated amounts do not match, please follow the steps below:
- Check that the data in your accounts are correct.
- Check that you have set up the groups correctly in the settings dialog.
If the errors persist, contact us via our feedback form and send us an example accounting file (*.ac2), even with little data, but allowing us to reproduce the possible problem and correct it.
Multi-language
The extension is available in the following languages:
- English
- Italian
- French (translation currently not complete)
- German (translation currently not complete)
And will adapt according to the language in which the application is set up. For all other languages, the standard version in English will be displayed.
Save your analysis
You can save the report in the following formats:
- Html
- Excel
- Latex
Settings Dialog
Dialog is accesible:
- By going to the Extensions menu→Cash Flow Statements and financial Ratios →Financial Reports.
- By going to the Extensions menu→Cash Flow Statements and financial Ratios →Settings.
Set up the groups
The first and most important step is to enter the groups or accounts number you are using in your account table.
Once you enter the groups the report and calculations are all done automatically, except for some specific transactions for the Cash Flow Statement.
- Groups must be entered manually
- Groups must be separated by a semi-colon ';'
- Both groups and accounts can be entered
- It is important to make sure that you include elements that exist in your chart of accounts, if are entered groups or accounts that do not exist in your chart of accounts, a message will be displayed on the row of the grouping concerned, returning those elements for which a match was not found in the chart of accounts. Once corrected, you only need to run the dialogue again and the message will disappear.
- By default, the groups within the dialogue refer to the Swiss SME chart of accounts, and it is possible to return to the base scenario by clicking the Restore Defaults button. Beware, however, that in this way the customisations made will be lost, and will be replaced with the default values.
.png?raw=true)
All the necessary elements must be inserted within the different groupings defined in the dialogue (Liquidity, Fixed Asset,Owned base capital,...).
Assets
They show the total employment of a company, so the investments to which the company has allocated
the means found in carrying out its activity.
- Liquidity: Must include groups or accounts that define liquidity in the company, such as cash or bank
- Credits: Must include groups or accounts within which are recorded all the operations
concerning money due to buyers who didn’t paid yet for their purchases - Stocks: Must include groups or accounts with all goods for resale in the ordinary course of business.
- Fixed assets: Must include groups or accounts containing fixed assets elements, as:
- Buildings
- Computer equipment
- Computer software
- Furniture and fixtures
- Intangible assets
- Land
- Leasehold improvements
- Machinery
- Vehicles
Liabilities and Equity
Shows where company's resources come from. In general, the funds at the company's disposal are
classified in a way to distinguish between own funds (which flow into equity) and those from third parties.
- Short-term debt capital: Must include groups or accounts representing the company commitments that must be fulfilled, without any particular cancellation, in the current year.
- Long term debt capital: Must include groups or accounts containing that kind of capital that the company can have at its disposal for several years, on a fixed basis, and that can usually only be withdrawn within a set time limit.
- Own Base capital: Must include groups or accounts those group referring to the company's own capital.
- Reserves and Profits: Must include groups or accounts within which are recorded the amounts to be paid to reserves or designated as profits.
Revenues
Indicates what is produced by the company during a financial year. Whether it is an increase in the value of products or semi-finished products in the course of production or services in progress, revenue from the sale of products or services or the increase in the value of fixed assets thanks to own resources, all these heterogeneous factors add up.
- Sales turnover: Must include groups or accounts within which is recorded what is produced by the company during a financial year. Whether it is an increase in the value of products or semi-finished products in the course of production or services in progress.
Costs
- Costs of Merchandise and services: Must include those groups or accounts in which all costs relating to goods and services consumed during the annual financial year are recorded.
- Personnel Costs: Must include all those accounts referring to a cost due to personnel, such as:
- Salaries
- Social charges
- Severance Pay
- Pension and similar treatment
- Other costs
- Different Costs: Must include all other groups or accounts relating to costs during the operating period.
- Interests: Must include groups or accounts containing the costs of financing sources, such as bank interest payable or interest on loans.
- Depreciation and Adjustments: Must include groups or accounts where are registered possible revaluations and write-downs of equity investments, as well as of financial fixed assets and securities included in current assets that are not equity investments.
- Final Result: The group containing the difference between the costs and the revenues at the end of the year.
Average Number of employees
This information is useful for calculating efficiency ratios, enter the average number of employees in the company and find out information such as the average company revenue per employee.
Printing Preferences
To make the Analysis as close as possible to your needs you can set some preferences, and choose about the details of printing and analysis
.png?raw=true)
Printing Details
- Page header: Include the header in the report, the header is composed with the information retrieved from the properties of the file.
- Logo: Choose whether to include your company logo in the report. for information on how to set up a logo visit this Logo set up page.
- Background color of headers: Choose the colors for the table headings
- Text color of headers: Choose the color for the texts in the table headings

Analysis Details
- Number of previous years: Set the number of previous accounts (years) to be included in the analysis, which will be added to the current year and the Budget (if present and included).If you don't know how to set the previous year to a file, go to “File→File and Accounting Properties→Options Tab.
- Number of decimals: Choose how many numbers after the decimal point you want for the digits in the report, if you don't want to have decimals you only need to insert a zero 0.
- Include Budget: If you are using the Budget table for your financial planning, you have the possibility to include it in the analysis.
- Include Budget to date column: Include the columns showing the values of the budget up to that day, compare the values with those of the year-to-date.
- Include Current year projection column: You can include the projection for the current year. The programme uses the values in the budget table to return what could be the values at the end of the year.
- Current Date: Insert the current date. If no date is entered, the date of the day is taken automatically
- Include DuPont Analysis: Choose whether to include the Dupont Analysis
- Include Control Sums: Choose whether to include the table with the control sums, useful to inform in case of errors on the totals (assets/liabilities, operating result).
- Show the formulas column: Choose whether to show the column with the calculation formulas.
- Show the acronym column: Decide whether or not to show the acronym column, which is useful for identifying the elements used for formulas.
The columns of acronyms and formulas are complementary, that's beacuse the acronym column is useful to uderstand how the formulas are composed. if you dont need these columns, just uncheck the checkbox.
Set the benchmarks
Benchmarking is a method of assessing an organisation's competences based on comparison with the "best
in class", whatever sector it belongs to. So the Benchmark is a key performance indicator on the basis of
which a company assesses its performance with regarding to products, services and business processes.
You can customise these values depending on your company:
- Sector
- Size
- Targets
These values are only representative, which means that the figures you enter are not used in the analysis but are shown as they are. In the report, they are displayed in the Benchmark column, in the indexes tables, so that you can quickly assess the situation.

It's also possible to call the dialog from the opened report and change the parameters. The values of the
analysis will be updated automatically.
Cash Flow Statement
Cash Flow is an analytical tool that helps to visualise the positive and negative changes in liquidity as a result of management, with reference to a given period of time: it is in fact the reconstruction of monetary flows, then the difference between all the monetary income and expenditure of a company.
Cash Flow analysis is not subject to accounting rules and many investors use the data to assess the strength of the company.
Essentially, if the Cash Flow is positive, it shows the financial availability for the company within the reporting period, whereas if the cash flow is negative, it means that more resources have been absorbed than have been received.
Special Cash Flow transactions
The first step to obtain the Cash flow Statement i its to setup the account groups in the settings dialog, Most value needed for preparing the Cash Flow Statement can be calculated based on the changes of the standard account classification. Identifying Disinvestments, Revaluations, transactions and other specific movements effecting the cash flow, would require a restructuring of the account plan. We have therefore opted to identify these values, by adding a special code to the description of a transaction.
It is important that these transactions are made using the recommended account type or group, because the program searches for cashflow amounts in certain groups, so if an entry is made using another account type, there could be an error as the amount may not be found.
If we talk about entering a fixed asset account, the account must belong to one of the groups entered in the fixed assets section of the dialogue. For example, if I disinvest by selling a vehicle and I use the standard chart of accounts for SMEs, I can use the account Vehicles '1530', which is part of the group 150, which in the dialogue is entered under the section 'Tangible Assets' in the fixed assets.
- Disinvestments (#disinvest)
- A disinvestment simply represents the sale of a fixed asset such as a vehicle or machinery. When recording a disinvestment.
- Debit Column: Insert the account where you will collect the money from the sale, such as the post or the bank.
- Credit Column: Insert a fixed asset account that relates to the item sold.
- Knowing the amount of disinvestments, the program is able to calculate in detail the real amount of investments that have been made during the year. For an SME, the number of disinvestments during the accounting period usually remains quite small, whereas investment activities are much more frequent operations, which is why it is very important to find the real amount net of all other movements.
- A disinvestment simply represents the sale of a fixed asset such as a vehicle or machinery. When recording a disinvestment.
- Revaluations of fixed assets (#revaluations)
- Revaluation of a fixed asset is the accounting process of increasing the carrying value of a company's fixed asset or group of fixed assets to account for any major changes in their fair market value.
- Debit Column: Enter the account of the fixed asset item you are revaluing to increase its value.
- Credit Colum: Enter an income account, if you don't have a particular one you can enter it as extraordinary income.
- Revaluation of a fixed asset is the accounting process of increasing the carrying value of a company's fixed asset or group of fixed assets to account for any major changes in their fair market value.
- Devaluations of fixed assets (#devaluations)
- It works in the same way as a revaluation, but instead of increasing the value of the fixed asset it decreases it, which means that the accounting entry is also reversed, i.e. the income becomes a cost.
- Debit Column: Enter a cost account, if you don't have a particular one you can enter it as extraordinary cost.
- Credit Colum: Enter the account of the fixed asset item you are revaluing to increase its value.
- It works in the same way as a revaluation, but instead of increasing the value of the fixed asset it decreases it, which means that the accounting entry is also reversed, i.e. the income becomes a cost.
- Dividends (#dividends)
- Dividends are fees paid to shareholders and usually depend on the profit made. The payment of a dividend must be recorded in a specific liability account, and should appear under short-term liabilities.
- Debit Column: Enter the reported balance sheet Profit / Loss carried forward account.
- Credit Colum: Enter the specific account for dividends.
- Dividends are fees paid to shareholders and usually depend on the profit made. The payment of a dividend must be recorded in a specific liability account, and should appear under short-term liabilities.

Cashflow Statement
Cash flow is divided into three main components:
- Operating cash flow which originates from the core business operations of a company.
- Cash flow for the company, which is the cash flow available to all investors in the company.
- Cash flow available to shareholders, which only considers the cash flows that are due to the shareholders, resulting from the net of all payments made and received, including from debt holders.
Adding up all the totals you find the amount that corresponds to the change in liquidity for the period, which in turn when added to the value of the liquidity at the opening of the period should give you the current liquidity balance.
If the results do not match, an error message is displayed.

Acronym column
In the acronym column of the cashflow, the reference to the account taken into account in the calculation is entered, or in the case of special entries, the prefix of the entry, so that it is easy to see which item of the balance sheet or income statement a certain movement relates to.
Cash Flow verification
This table shows any differences between the change in cash flow calculated in the cashflow and the actual cash flow in the accounts, which in an optimal situation should match. If there is a difference in one of the years of analysis the amount in question is printed in red on a line below.
Usually, when an error occurs, the first thing to do is to check whether the amounts in the balance sheet and profit and loss statement are correct or whether there are differences between the assets and liabilities, for checking them, control sums are very useful because they immediately show whether there is a difference.
if you realise there is some error but you dont know exactly where, you can check the amounts by comparing the ones in the report with those in the chart of accounts.
The differences are generally due to an error when entering groups in the settings dialog, which can occur in two ways:
- One or more groups were not included
- One or more groups were entered under the wrong heading
In case the balance and profit and loss amounts are correct but the cashflow displays an error, is probably due to the fact that a group has been inserted in the wrong place.
Retained Earnings Statement
This table shows the movements made with the annual profit achieved. Starting from the reported annual profit it adds the profit for the period and adjusts the value by taking into account the payment of dividends and the creation or dissolution of reserves. The last two rows show the total undistributed profit, and the undistributed profit realised in the current year.

This information is somewhat supportive of Cash Flow but since earnings management does not directly affect cash, it is presented in a separate statement.
Record Transactions
It is useful to first record the transfer of the profit for the year from the profit and loss account to the profit shown in the balance sheet as shown in the example image.
In order to record the payment/discharge of reserves and the payment of dividends, it is sufficient to use the specific account of one of the above items and to decrease or increase the profit account shown in the balance sheet. The remaining amount (not allocated to reserves or dividends) then increases the retained earnings.

Cash Flow Ratios
In addition to the ratios already present, those ratios are added just below the Cashflow table and in the Charts

- Cashflow margin: Measures the amount of revenue a firm can convert into operating cash flow. When a firm is thriving, operating cash flow should grow alongside revenue. While profit margins measure a firm's pricing power; a declining cash flow margin also measures the health of customer and supplier relationships.
- Asset Efficiency Ratio: This is a basic ratio to show you how well the company uses its assets to generate cash flow. It’s best used to view the historical trend as well as to compare with competitors.
- Cashflow to current Liabilties: This ratio gives you an idea about the company’s debt management practices.It’s also a better indicator of the company’s ability to pay current liabilities than the current ratio or quick ratio
- Cashflow to Liabilities: Measures the amount of operating cash flow a firm generates on each dollar of total liabilities. Businesses that can't produce operating cash flow to pay off all their liabilities cannot continue to operate indefinitely, making this ratio an important indicator of liquidity as well as solvency
- Cashflow to Investments: Measures the amount a company outlays for capital assets for each dollar of cash dollar it generates from those investments.
Why Is Cash Flow Analysis Important?
Performing cash flow calculations in combination with constant monitoring of the company's cash flows is the winning formula for effective treasury management, and is useful for making the best use of available cash.
Thanks to the ability to generate cash flow and the financial solvency of the company, you gain confidence from banks and suppliers, as it symbolises a certain control over your business: the calculation of cash flow is in fact a way to detect the actual availability of the company, giving the possibility to face unexpected events or to plan consistently the future of projects.
For more information on Cashflow Analysis, please refer to the following page.
Balance Sheet and Profit and Loss Reclassification
Generate the Report by going to the Extensions menu→Cash Flow Statements and financial Ratios →Financial Reports.
The Report contains all the analysis data processed by the extension:
- Reclassified balance sheet
- Reclassified Profit and Loss Statement
- Control Sums table
Reclassified Balance Sheet
The reclassification of accounts allows for the display of a series of values, results and intermediate margins that contain more information than the traditional structure.

- Current Assets: All the assets of a company that are expected to be sold or used as a result of standard business operations over the next year.
- Fixed Assets: Items, such as property or equipment, a company plans to use over the long-term to help generate income.
- Total Assets: The sum of current assets and fixed assets.
- Debt Capital: Is the capital that a business raises by taking out a loan. It is a loan made to a company, typically as growth capital, and is normally repaid at some future date.
- Own Capital: It is the capital owned by the company.
- Total Liabilites and equity: The sum of Debt Capital and Own Capital.
Reclassified Profit and Loss Statement

- Added value: The difference between operating costs and operating revenues incurred for resources outside the company, expresses the company's ability to create wealth and then remunerate the various production factors and stakeholders.
- MOL /EBITDA: "Earning Before Interests, Taxes, Depreciation and amortization" is obtained by subtracting from production revenues the costs of production (including internal costs such as personnel costs), without considering provisions and depreciation. As it does not contain economic items without monetary movement, its value assumes very important information for financial investors.
- EBIT :"Earning Before interests and Taxes", helps to understand whether the company is also able to cover the financial charges arising from its financial commitments.
Control Sums
Resumes the totals of the reclassified accounts (Assets, Liabilities and Equity , Annual Result). Checks that the sums calculated in the analysis match the totals in the accounting sheets and that Assets and Labilities and equity match.
- Accounting Total column: Represents the actual total in the accounts.
- Calculated Total column: Represents the total calculated by the program based on the groups entered.
- Difference column: Represents the difference found between the total in the accounts and the calculated total for each year. The value equal to 0, otherwise will be displayed an error message, which means that there may have been an error in entering the accounts/groups .In this case it is useful to check in the dialogue that you have entered the groups correctly.
Financial Ratios
Generate the Report by going to the Extensions menu→Cash Flow Statements and financial Ratios →Financial Reports.
The balance sheet ratios are formulas calculated on financial, economic and asset values. These ratios are derived from the income statement and balance sheet data. Balance sheet indices are important analysis tools that provide essential indications for the entrepreneur's activity.
It is widely used by all professionals who are interested in assessing the soundness of a company for their work.
In fact, banks use the balance sheet indexes to evaluate company loan applications.
the indexes are divided into four main types
- Liquidity ratios:
- Financing ratios
- Profitability ratios
- Efficiency ratios

Liquidity ratios
An important class of financial metrics used to determine a debtor's ability to pay off current debt obligations without raising external capital. Liquidity ratios measure a company's ability to pay debt obligations and its margin of safety through the calculation of metrics.
- Cash ratio: Indicates the extent to which the company is able to repay its debts at the end of the term.
- Quick ratio: Indicates the extent to which the company is able to pay its debts when due.
- Current ratio: Indicates the extent to which the company is able to pay its short-term debts without touching fixed assets.
- Net Current Asset: Indicates the part of the current assets free of short-term commitments, which can therefore be used in the activity.
Financing ratios
They look at how much capital comes in the form of debt (loans) or assesses the ability of a company to meet its financial obligations.
- Degree of Circulating Assets: It allows us to understand whether there is a balance within the company's assets, a judgement can only be made if we have the average data for the same line of business.
- Percentage Fixed Assets: It is complementary to the previous one.
- Debt ratio: Indicates the extent to which the company has had to resort to external financing, the judgement depends very much on the branch of activity.
- Equity ratio: Is complementary to the previous one, equity ratio has the advantage of being less expensive.
- Self-Financing ratio: Indicates the extent to which the company has been able to accumulate undistributed profits.
- Fixed Asset coverage: The fixed assets must absolutely be financed from equity or possibly from long term capital, otherwise major repayment problems could occur.
Profitability ratios
Are useful to assess a business's ability to generate earnings relative to its revenue, operating costs, balance sheet assets, or shareholders' equity over time, using data from a specific point in time.
- Return on equity (ROE): By comparing the percentage obtained with the rates commonly applied for other investments, it is possible to understand whether the equity invested by the company gives a sufficient return or not.
- Return on investment (ROI): Identifies the return on invested capital. Basically it serves to understand how much the invested capital returns in terms of income.
- Gross Operating Margin (MOL) :Is a value that measures the profitability of a company. In other words, it measures the ability to make profit margins: Indicates the company's return on sales made.
- EBIT margin: Is the ratio of EBIT to turnover of a company. This ratio provides information on its profitability and helps to compare different companies and sectors.
- Profit margin: It represents what percentage of sales has turned into profits.
Efficiency ratios
Express the degree of efficiency of the company's factors of production, those chosen by us give us an indication of the relationship between the number of employees and the various margins of the profit and loss account. Efficiency indicators are related to profitability indicators, as higher productivity generates an improvement in profitability indicators.
