Liquidity can be seen as a major contributor to long-term profitability. The key difference between profitability and liquidity is that while盈利能力是公司赚取利润的程度,流动性是迅速将资产转化为现金的能力。

什么是盈利能力?
Profit can be simply referred to as the difference between total收入总数较少expensesfor business.利润最大化是任何公司的首要任务之一。根据认为获得每个利润金额的组件,利润分为各组。使用各自的利润数字计算了许多比率,以允许与以前的时期和其他类似公司进行比较,并促进财务决策。
比率 | Managerial implications |
Gross Profit | |
GP Margin = Revenue / Gross profit*100 | 这计算了覆盖出售商品成本后剩余的收入数量。这是对主要业务活动的盈利和成本效益的衡量标准。 |
Operating Profit | |
OP Margin =收入 /营业利润*100 | OP margin measures how much revenue is left after allowing for other costs relating to the core business activity. This measures how efficiently the main business activity can be conducted. |
净利 | |
NP保证金=收入 /净利润*100 | NP margin is a measure of the overall profitability, and this is the final profit figure in the income statement. This takes into account all the operating and non-operating incomes and expenses. |
Return on Capital Employed | |
ROCE =利息和税收之前的收入/Capital employed*100 | ROCE是计算公司使用其资本(包括债务和股权)产生多少利润的措施。该比率可用于评估资本基础的有效性。 |
Return on Equity | |
ROE =净收入/平均股东权益*100 | This assesses how much profit is generated through the funds contributed by equity shareholders, thus calculates the amount of value created through equity capital. |
Return on Assets | |
ROA = Net income / Average total assets*100 | ROA证明了该公司相对于其总资产的有利可图。因此,它表明了如何有效地利用资产来产生收入。 |
每股收益 | |
EPS = Net income / Average number of shares outstanding | 这计算了每股产生多少利润。这直接影响股票的市场价格。因此,高利润的公司的市场价格较高。 |
什么是流动性?
描述了资产的流动性r security can be quickly bought or sold in the market without affecting the asset’s price. This is also the availability of cash and cash equivalents in a company. Cash equivalents includetreasury bills,,,,commercial paperand other short-term marketable securities. Liquidity is just as important as profitability, sometimes even more important in the short-term. This is because the company needs cash to run day to day business operations. This includes,
- 制造和销售成本
- Payment of salaries to employees
- Payments to creditors, tax authorities and interest on borrowed funds
如果没有完成上述常规活动,企业将无法生存以获利。可以考虑额外的资金来源,例如获得更多债务;但是,这会带来更高的风险和更多的成本。因此,重要的是要对现金流动状况保持警惕并有效地进行管理。计算以下比率以评估流动性位置。
比率 | 管理含义 |
目前的比例=流动资产 /流动负债 | 这计算了该公司使用当前资产还清其短期负债的能力。理想的电流比率被认为是2:1,这意味着有2个资产可以承担每个责任。但是,这可能会根据行业标准和公司运营而有所不同。 |
速动比率= (Current Assets-inventory) /current Liabilities | 这与当前比率非常相似。但是,它在流动性计算中排除了库存,因为与其他库存相比,库存通常是流动性的流动性较低。理想比率据说为1:1;但是,这取决于行业标准,就像流动比率一样 |
Cash flow statementprovides the amount of cash reserve at the end of the financial year. If the cash balance is positive there is a ‘现金盈余’. If the cash balance is negative (), this is not a healthy situation. This means that the company does not have sufficient cash at hand to operate routine business activities; thus, there is a need to consider borrowing funds in order to continue operations in a smooth manner.

摘要 - 盈利能力与流动性
盈利能力和流动性之间的差异仅仅是利润的可用性与现金的可用性。利润是评估公司稳定性的主要措施,是股东的优先利益。尽管利润是最重要的,但这并不一定意味着业务运营是可持续的。此外,一家盈利的公司可能没有足够的流动性,因为公司中的大多数资金都投资到项目中,并且拥有大量现金或流动性的公司可能无法盈利,因为它没有有效地利用多余的资金。因此,成功取决于利润和现金的更好管理。
