A company that pays for assets with more equity than debt has a low leverage ratio and a conservative capital structure Debt vs. Equity •Debt is one of the two main ways companies can raise capital in the capital markets. Companies like to issue debt because of the tax advantages. Interest payments are tax-deductible. Debt also allows a company or business to retain ownership, unlike equity. Additionally, in times of low interest rates, debt is abundant and easy to access. •(https://www.investopedia.com/terms/c/capitalstructure.asp#ixzz5Dfp7yxmP) •Equity is more expensive than debt, especially when interest rates are low. However, unlike debt, equity does not need to be paid back if earnings decline. On the other hand, equity represents a claim on the future earnings of the company as a part owner.

Indeed, it shows that cash is accumulating so quickly that management doesn't have time to figure out how to make use of it. A dwindling cash pile could be a sign of trouble. That said, if loads of cash are more or less a permanent feature of the company's balance sheet, investors need to ask why the money is not being put to use. Cash could be there because management has run out of investment opportunities or is too short-sighted to know what to do with the money (https://www.investopedia.com/university/fundamentalanalysis/fundanalysis7.asp#ixzz5Dg9GIB00 ) Current assets - Inventories •Inventories are finished products that haven't yet sold. As an investor, you want to know if a company has too much money tied up in its inventory. Companies have limited funds available to invest in inventory. To generate the cash to pay bills and return a profit, they must sell the merchandise they have purchased from suppliers. •Inventory turnover (cost of goods sold divided by average inventory) measures how quickly the company is moving merchandise through the warehouse to customers. If inventory grows faster than sales, it is almost always a sign of deteriorating fundamentals. (https://www.investopedia.com/university/fundamentalanalysis/fundanalysis7.asp#ixzz5Dg9lP1H6 ) Current assets - Accounts receivables •Receivables are outstanding (uncollected bills).

If a company's collection period is growing longer, it could mean problems ahead •(https://www.investopedia.com/university/fundamentalanalysis/fundanalysis7.asp#ixzz5Dg9GIB00) Non - Current assets - •Non-current assets are defined as anything not classified as a current asset. This includes items that are fixed assets, such as property, plant and equipment (PP&E). Unless the company is in financial distress and is liquidating assets, investors need not pay too much attention to fixed assets. (https://www.investopedia.com/university/fundamentalanalysis/fundanalysis7.asp#ixzz5Dg9GIB00) Liabilities •There are current liabilities and non-current liabilities. •Current liabilities are obligations the firm must pay within a year, such as payments owing to suppliers. •Non-current liabilities, meanwhile, represent what the company owes in a year or more time. Typically, non-current liabilities represent bank and bondholder debt. • • •You usually want to see a manageable amount of debt. When debt levels are falling, that's a good sign. Generally speaking, if a company has more assets than liabilities, then it is in decent condition. By contrast, a company with a large amount of liabilities relative to assets ought to be examined with more diligence. Having too much debt relative to cash flows required to pay for interest and debt repayments is one way a company can go bankrupt. • •Look at the quick ratio. Subtract inventory from current assets and then divide by current liabilities. If the ratio is 1 or higher, it says that the company has enough cash and liquid assets to cover its short-term debt obligations. • • •Quick Ratio = Current Assets - Inventories /Current Liabilities Equity • represents what shareholders own, so it is often called shareholder's equity. • •Equity = Total Assets – Total Liabilities • •The two important equity items are paid-in capital and retained earnings. •Paid-in capital is the amount of money shareholders paid for their shares when the stock was first offered to the public. It basically represents how much money the firm received when it sold its shares. •In other words, retained earnings are a tally of the money the company has chosen to reinvest in the business rather than pay to shareholders. Investors should look closely at how a company puts retained capital to use and how a company generates a return on it. • Accounting liquidity •Refers to the ease and quickness with which assets can be converted to cash. •Current assets are the most liquid and include cash and those assets that will be turned into cash within a year from the date of the balance sheet. • • Accounting liquidity •For a corporation with a published balance sheet there are various ratios used to calculate a measure of liquidity. •These include the following: •The current ratio is the simplest measure and calculated by dividing the total current assets by the total current liabilities. A value of over 100% is normal in a non-banking corporation. However, some current assets are more difficult to sell at full value in a hurry. •The quick ratio is calculated by deducting inventories and prepayments from current assets and then dividing by current liabilities, giving a measure of the ability to meet current liabilities from assets that can be readily sold. A better way for a trading corporation to meet liabilities is from cash flows, rather than through asset sales, so; •The operating cash flow ratio can be calculated by dividing the operating cash flow by current liabilities. This indicates the ability to service current debt from current income, rather than through asset sales. • The income statement •Profit and lost account •Revenue – expenses =Income •Measure the performance over specific period of time Operating section ( www. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Income_statement) •Revenue - Cash inflows or other enhancements of assets (including accounts receivable) of an entity during a period from delivering or producing goods, rendering services, or other activities that constitute the entity's ongoing major operations.
