What's This Course About

Financial Ratio Analysis teaches you how to calculate, interpret and apply the key financial ratios that reveal an organisation's true performance and financial health. Ratios turn the numbers in financial statements into meaningful indicators of profitability, liquidity, efficiency, solvency and value, helping managers, investors and lenders make better decisions. The course is designed for managers, finance and accounts staff, business owners, analysts and investors who want to read financial statements with confidence.

You will start by assessing an organisation's profitability, learning how to calculate and interpret gross, operating and net profit margins, return on assets and return on equity, and how to trace changes in profitability back to their causes. You will review how the income statement, balance sheet and cash flow statement link together so that each ratio is grounded in the underlying figures. Next you will evaluate an organisation's performance using ratios, including liquidity ratios such as the current and quick ratio, efficiency ratios such as inventory and receivable turnover, and gearing and coverage ratios.

The course also covers valuation ratios such as price-to-earnings and dividend yield, and how to compare ratios over time, against competitors and against industry benchmarks. You will learn the limitations of ratio analysis and how to avoid misleading conclusions. Practical exercises use real company financial statements. By the end, you will be able to perform a structured ratio analysis and use the results to support sound business and investment decisions.
