(**) Instructor’s Note: Why are average balance sheet amounts used in calculating the turnover ratios? In the calculation of a
amount from an annual income statement, while the denominator is a balance sheet amount. Since a balance sheet amount
instant or moment, there is an inconsistency between the numerator and the denominator. For example, the numerator in th
cost of goods sold for the 365-day year, while the denominator reflects the cost of inventory for a just one moment at the en
year. To overcome this shortcoming, the denominator needs to be representative of all of the moments during the year. Whe
year’s balance sheet and the amount on this year’s balance sheet are the only amounts available, it is common to use the ave
amounts in the denominator. It is also common to use the average of these two balance sheet amounts in the trend analysis.
With the same reason, Dupont ratio can be expressed as:
DuPont Analysis = Net Profit Margin × TAT × EM
where:
Net Profit Margin= Net Income/Sales
TAT=Asset turnover
Total Asset Turnover=Sales/Average Total Asset
EM=Equity multiplier Equity Multiplier=Average Total Assets/Average Shareholders’ Equity
It is worth noting that the textbook focuses on the single year’s ratio analysis which is correct but is not recommended for the

g the turnover ratios? In the calculation of a turnover ratio, the numerator is an
eet amount. Since a balance sheet amount is a snapshot and reflects only an
ominator. For example, the numerator in the inventory turnover ratio is the
f inventory for a just one moment at the end of the last day of the accounting
of all of the moments during the year. When the inventory amount on last
ounts available, it is common to use the average of these two balance sheet
alance sheet amounts in the trend analysis.
