Financial Ratio Glossary

Accounts Payable:Sales : Accounts Payable divided by Annual Sales, measuring the speed with which a company pays vendors relative to sales. Numbers higher than typical industry ratios suggest that the company is using suppliers to float operations.

Accounts Receivable Turnover: Sales/Accounts Receivable. Target: at or slightly above industry level.

Assets:Sales: Total Assets divided by Net Sales, indicating whether a company is handling too high a volume of sales in relation to investment. Very low percentages relative to industry norms might indicate overly conservative sales efforts or poor sales management.
