财务报表分析外文文献及翻译LNTU---Acc附录A财务报表分析的杠杆左右以及如何体现盈利性和值比率摘要关键词:财政杠杆;运营债务杠杆;股本回报率;值比率传统观点认为，杠杆效应是从金融活动中产生的:公司通过借贷来增加运营的资金。

杠杆作用的衡量标准是负债总额与股东权益。

然而，一些负债——如银行贷款和发行的债券，是由于资金筹措，其他一些负债——如贸易应付账款，预收收入和退休金负债，是由于在运营过程中与供应商的贸易，与顾客和雇佣者在结算过程中产生的负债。

融资负债通常交易运作良好的资本市场其中的发行者是随行就市的商人。

与此相反，在运营中公司能够实现高增值。

因为业务涉及的是与资本市场相比，不太完善的贸易的输入和输出的市场。

因此，考虑到股票估值，运营负债和融资负债的区别的产生有一些先验的原因。

我们研究在资产负债表上，运营负债中的一美元是否与融资中的一美元等值这个问题。

因为运营负债和融资负债是股票价值的组成部分，这个问题就相当于问是否股价与账面价值比率是否取决于账面净值的组成。

价格与账面比率是由预期回报率的账面价值决定的。

所以，如果部分的账面价值要求不同的溢价，他们必须显示出不同的账面价值的预期回报率。

因此，标准的财务报表分析的能够区分股东从运营中和借贷的融资业务中产生的利润。

因此，资产回报有别于股本回报率，这种差异是由于杠杆作用。

然而，在标准的分析中，经营负债不区别于融资负债。

因此，为了制定用于实证分析的规范，我们的研究结果是用于愿意分析预期公司的收益和账面收益率。

这些预测和估值依赖于负债的组成。

中英文对照外文翻译文献(文档含英文原文和中文翻译)原文：ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTSWe need to use financial ratios in analyzing financial statements.—— The analysis of comparative financial statements cannot be made really effective unless it takes the form of a study of relationships between items in the statements. It is of little value, for example, to know that, on a given date, the Smith Company has a cash balance of $1oooo. But suppose we know that this balance is only -IV per cent of all current liabilities whereas a year ago cash was 25 per cent of all current liabilities. Since the bankers for the company usually require a cash balance against bank lines, used or unused, of 20 per cent, we can see at once that the firm's cash condition is exhibiting a questionable tendency.We may make comparisons between items in the comparative financial statements as follows:1. Between items in the comparative balance sheeta) Between items in the balance sheet for one date, e.g., cash may be compared with current liabilitiesb) Between an item in the balance sheet for one date and the same item in the balance sheet for another date, e.g., cash today may be compared with cash a year agoc) Of ratios, or mathematical proportions, between two items in the balance sheet for one date and a like ratio in the balance sheet for another date, e.g., the ratio of cash to current liabilities today may be compared with a like ratio a year ago and the trend of cash condition noted2. Between items in the comparative statement of income and expensea) Between items in the statement for a given periodb) Between one item in this period's statement and the same item in last period's statementc) Of ratios between items in this period's statement and similar ratios in last period's statement3. Between items in the comparative balance sheet and items in the comparative statement of income and expensea) Between items in these statements for a given period, e.g., net profit for this year may be calculated as a percentage of net worth for this yearb) Of ratios between items in the two statements for a period of years, e.g., the ratio of net profit to net worth this year may-be compared with like ratios for last year, and for the years preceding thatOur comparative analysis will gain in significance if we take the foregoing comparisons or ratios and; in turn, compare them with:I. Such data as are absent from the comparative statements but are of importance in judging a concern's financial history and condition, for example, the stage of the business cycle2. Similar ratios derived from analysis of the comparative statements of competing concerns or of concerns in similar lines of business What financialratios are used in analyzing financial statements.- Comparative analysis of comparative financial statements may be expressed by mathematical ratios between the items compared, for example, a concern's cash position may be tested by dividing the item of cash by the total of current liability items and using the quotient to express the result of the test. Each ratio may be expressed in two ways, for example, the ratio of sales to fixed assets may be expressed as the ratio of fixed assets to sales. We shall express each ratio in such a way that increases from period to period will be favorable and decreases unfavorable to financial condition.We shall use the following financial ratios in analyzing comparative financial statements:I. Working-capital ratios1. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities2. The ratio of cash to total current liabilities3. The ratio of cash, salable securities, notes and accounts receivable to total current liabilities4. The ratio of sales to receivables, i.e., the turnover of receivables5. The ratio of cost of goods sold to merchandise inventory, i.e., the turnover of inventory6. The ratio of accounts receivable to notes receivable7. The ratio of receivables to inventory8. The ratio of net working capital to inventory9. The ratio of notes payable to accounts payableIO. The ratio of inventory to accounts payableII. Fixed and intangible capital ratios1. The ratio of sales to fixed assets, i.e., the turnover of fixed capital2. The ratio of sales to intangible assets, i.e., the turnover of intangibles3. The ratio of annual depreciation and obsolescence charges to the assetsagainst which depreciation is written off4. The ratio of net worth to fixed assetsIII. Capitalization ratios1. The ratio of net worth to debt.2. The ratio of capital stock to total capitalization .3. The ratio of fixed assets to funded debtIV. Income and expense ratios1. The ratio of net operating profit to sales2. The ratio of net operating profit to total capital3. The ratio of sales to operating costs and expenses4. The ratio of net profit to sales5. The ratio of net profit to net worth6. The ratio of sales to financial expenses7. The ratio of borrowed capital to capital costs8. The ratio of income on investments to investments9. The ratio of non-operating income to net operating profit10. The ratio of net operating profit to non-operating expense11. The ratio of net profit to capital stock12. The ratio of net profit reinvested to total net profit available for dividends on common stock13. The ratio of profit available for interest to interest expensesThis classification of financial ratios is permanent not exhaustive. -Other ratios may be used for purposes later indicated. Furthermore, some of the ratios reflect the efficiency with which a business has used its capital while others reflect efficiency in financing capital needs. The ratios of sales to receivables, inventory, fixed and intangible capital; the ratios of net operating profit to total capital and to sales; and the ratios of sales to operating costs and expenses reflect efficiency in the use of capital.' Most of the other ratios reflect financial efficiency.B. Technique of Financial Statement AnalysisAre the statements adequate in general?-Before attempting comparative analysis of given financial statements we wish to be sure that the statements are reasonably adequate for the purpose. They should, of course, be as complete as possible. They should also be of recent date. If not, their use must be limited to the period which they cover. Conclusions concerning 1923 conditions cannot safely be based upon 1921 statements.Does the comparative balance sheet reflect a seasonable situation? If so, it is important to know financial conditions at both the high and low points of the season. We must avoid unduly favorable judgment of the business at the low point when assets are very liquid and debt is low, and unduly unfavorable judgment at the high point when assets are less liquid and debt likely to be relatively high.Does the balance sheet for any date reflect the estimated financial condition after the sale of a proposed new issue of securities? If so, in order to ascertain the actual financial condition at that date it is necessary to subtract the amount of the security issue from net worth, if the. issue is of stock, or from liabilities, if bonds are to be sold. A like amount must also be subtracted from assets or liabilities depending upon how the estimated proceeds of the issue are reflected in the statement.Are the statements audited or unaudited? It is often said that audited statements, that is, complete audits rather than statements "rubber stamped" by certified public accountants, are desirable when they can be obtained. This is true, but the statement analyst should be certain that the given auditing film's reputation is beyond reproach.Is working-capital situation favorable ?-If the comparative statements to be analyzed are reasonably adequate for the purpose, the next step is to analyze the concern's working-capital trend and position. We may begin by ascertaining the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. This ratioaffords-a test of the concern's probable ability to pay current obligations without impairing its net working capital. It is, in part, a measure of ability to borrow additional working capital or to renew short-term loans without difficulty. The larger the excess of current assets over current liabilities the smaller the risk of loss to short-term creditors and the better the credit of the business, other things being equal. A ratio of two dollars of current assets to one dollar of current liabilities is the "rule-of-thumb" ratio generally considered satisfactory, assuming all current assets are conservatively valued and all current liabilities revealed.The rule-of-thumb current ratio is not a satisfactory test ofworking-capital position and trend. A current ratio of less than two dollars for one dollar may be adequate, or a current ratio of more than two dollars for one dollar may be inadequate. It depends, for one thing, upon the liquidity of the current assets.The liquidity of current assets varies with cash position.-The larger the proportion of current assets in the form of cash the more liquid are the current assets as a whole. Generally speaking, cash should equal at least 20 per cent of total current liabilities (divide cash by total current liabilities). Bankers typically require a concern to maintain bank balances equal to 20 per cent of credit lines whether used or unused. Open-credit lines are not shown on the balance sheet, hence the total of current liabilities (instead of notes payable to banks) is used in testing cash position. Like the two-for-one current ratio, the 20 per cent cash ratio is more or less a rule-of-thumb standard.The cash balance that will be satisfactory depends upon terms of sale, terms of purchase, and upon inventory turnover. A firm selling goods for cash will find cash inflow more nearly meeting cash outflow than will a firm selling goods on credit. A business which pays cash for all purchases will need more ready money than one which buys on long terms of credit. The more rapidly the inventory is sold the more nearly will cash inflow equal cash outflow, other things equal.Needs for cash balances will be affected by the stage of the business cycle. Heavy cash balances help to sustain bank credit and pay expenses when a period of liquidation and depression depletes working capital and brings a slump in sales. The greater the effects of changes in the cycle upon a given concern the more thought the financial executive will need to give to the size of his cash balances.Differences in financial policies between different concerns will affect the size of cash balances carried. One concern may deem it good policy to carry as many open-bank lines as it can get, while another may carry only enough lines to meet reasonably certain needs for loans. The cash balance of the first firm is likely to be much larger than that of the second firm.The liquidity of current assets varies with ability to meet "acid test."- Liquidity of current assets varies with the ratio of cash, salable securities, notes and accounts receivable (less adequate reserves for bad debts), to total current liabilities (divide the total of the first four items by total current liabilities). This is the so-called "acid test" of the liquidity of current condition. A ratio of I: I is considered satisfactory since current liabilities can readily be paid and creditors risk nothing on the uncertain values of merchandise inventory. A less than 1:1 ratio may be adequate if receivables are quickly collected and if inventory is readily and quickly sold, that is, if its turnover is rapid andif the risks of changes in price are small.The liquidity of current assets varies with liquidity of receivables. This may be ascertained by dividing annual sales by average receivables or by receivables at the close of the year unless at that date receivables do not represent the normal amount of credit extended to customers. Terms of sale must be considered in judging the turnover of receivables. For example, if sales for the year are $1,200,000 and average receivables amount to $100,000, the turnover of receivables is $1,200,000/$100,000=12. Now, if credit terms to customers are net in thirty days we can see that receivables are paid promptly.Consideration should also be given market conditions and the stage of the business cycle. Terms of credit are usually longer in farming sections than in industrial centers. Collections are good in prosperous times but slow in periods of crisis and liquidation.Trends in the liquidity of receivables will also be reflected in the ratio of accounts receivable to notes receivable, in cases where goods are typically sold on open account. A decline in this ratio may indicate a lowering of credit standards since notes receivable are usually given to close overdue open accounts. If possible, a schedule of receivables should be obtained showing those not due, due, and past due thirty, sixty, and ninety days. Such a, schedule is of value in showing the efficiency of credits and collections and in explaining the trend in turnover of receivables. The more rapid the turnover of receivables the smaller the risk of loss from bad debts; the greater the savings of interest on the capital invested in receivables, and the higher the profit on total capital, other things being equal.Author(s): C.

企业价值分析是一种通过对企业财务报表进行深入分析，评估企业的价值和潜力的方法。

通过对企业的财务状况、经营绩效和未来发展趋势进行全面评估，企业价值分析可以帮助投资者、管理者和其他利益相关者做出明智的决策。

财务报表是企业财务状况的重要反映，包括资产负债表、利润表和现金流量表等。

通过对财务报表的分析，可以了解企业的财务状况、经营绩效和盈利能力等关键指标。

然而，仅仅依靠财务报表本身并不能全面准确地评估企业的价值。

财务报表往往只能提供过去的信息，而对于企业未来的发展趋势和潜力，财务报表无法提供直接的线索。

因此，基于财务报表分析的企业价值分析成为了一种重要的方法。

企业价值分析的目的是评估企业的价值和潜力，为投资者、管理者和其他利益相关者提供决策依据。

对于投资者来说，企业价值分析可以帮助他们判断是否值得投资某个企业，以及投资的风险和回报。

对于管理者来说，企业价值分析可以帮助他们了解企业的财务状况和经营绩效，为企业的战略决策提供支持。

Free Cash Flow, Enterprise Value, and Investor CautionHarlan PlattCollege of Business AdministrationNortheastern UniversitySebahattin DemirkanSchool of ManagementSUNY Binghamton UniversityMarjorie PlattCollege of Business AdministrationNortheastern UniversityAbstract：By analyzing actual cash flows in comparison with enterprise values (market capitalization plus debt minus cash) we document that the market dramaticall undervalues firms. The findings suggest that the equity market appears to have an extraordinarily high discount rate which negates future earnings in the calculus of firm value. That is, the discount rate is so high that the vast majority of future cash flows are virtually ignored.Our research finds that stock prices do not reflect future corporate earnings. This finding contrasts with the well known statement in finance textbooks that “the value of a firm equals the present discounted value of future cash flows.” In fact, we find that enterprise values are substantially less than the present discounted value of future cash flows. A one-dollar increase in future cash flows produces only a 75 cent increase in a firm’s enterprise value.The implication of our work is clear: companies are worth far more than the market believes. This provides strong support to the idea behind the private equity industry. We realize that of late private equity firms have overpaid for acquisitions and may lose their entire investment during the current phase of deleveraging. Yet, if private equity firms acquire companies at reasonable prices using less debt, they are likely to create substantial value as a consequence of the fact that companies are so undervalued by the market relative to their cash flows.There are no previous research efforts following our methodological design based on actual cash flows. Rather, .prior research studies have focused on the relationship between forecasted cash flows (by market analysts) and enterprise value. Our approach focuses on a different question – the relationship between discounted future cash flows and the current market value as posited by financial theory.Keywords: Enterprise Value, Actual Cash Flow, Cash Flow, Valuation1.IntroductionThe common explanation provided in finance textbooks for the value of the firm is that it equals the present discounted value of future free cash flows (FCF). Few analysts or market observers disagree with this statement. Despite its universal acceptance, there are few studies of the basic FCF proposition and the theory that underlies the science of valuation. In this paper, we explore the question of whether the value of the firm is related to its future cash flows. Existent literature on this subject includes a few studies conceptually similar to ours and a large body of work on questions peripheral to the basic issue addressed in this paper. Those related works use the FCF valuation theory to address issues of market efficiency. Our work is directed at valuation and not the market efficiency question.Obviously actual future cash flows are unknown when analysts estimate value. Lacking actual future cash flow data, analysts create careful projections of annual cash flows for several years, usually less than 10, and then estimate cash flows in additional years with a terminal value. Public companies have value forecasts prepared for them by many unrelated individuals and organizations. Some forecasts are too optimistic while others are too pessimistic. Presumably optimistic forecasters are buyers of securities while pessimistic forecasters are sellers. A secu rity’s market price would then be the share value that clears the market of optimists and pessimists.The specific projections of all individual forecasters are unavailable. What is known, at a point in time, is the actual market capitalization and enterprise value (EV) that results from the interactions of these many forecasts. Some researchers have tested the relationship between the value of the firm and cash flow forecasts by obtaining a sample of analyst’s forecasts or forecasts from other published so urces. We instead substitute actual cash flows for forecasted cash flows. Our null hypothesis assumes that the market-clearing forecast of future free cash flows is correct for every company. In that case, actual cash flows can be substituted for cash flow forecasts. If the market clearing forecast is too optimistic (pessimistic) then the observed EV exceeds (is less than) the present discounted value of actual free cash flows. Our first empirical test examines how closely EV compare with the present discounted value of actual subsequent cash flows. Finding the theory to be less than complete, our second empirical exercise considers additional explanatory factors to explain EV. This portion of the paper tests whether the accepted FCF theory fully explains EVs.2.LITERATURE REVIEWThe earliest written discussion of the idea that the value of something is related to its future cash flows comes from Johan de Witt (1671); though the basic idea traces back to the early Greeks1. In modern times, the idea that corporate value is related to 1See Daniel Rubinstein, Great Moments in Financial Economics, Journal of Investment Management (Winter 2003).future dividends was first described by John Williams (1938)2. Durand (1957) observed what later became known as the Gordon growth model, that a dividend growing at a constant rate forever can be capitalized to estimate a firm’s va lue.The literature that tests the FCF theory examines a variety of valuation methods. All of these tests rely on forecasts of cash flows or earnings made contemporaneously with the valuation estimate. That is, starting in a given year, they compare actual EV against forecasts, made that year, for the same company. For example, Francis, Olsson, and Oswald (2000) compared three theoretical valuation models-- discounted dividends (DD), discounted FCF, and discounted abnormal earnings (AE)3– by analyzing Value Line annual forecasts for the period 1989 – 1993 for a sample of2,907 firm years that ranges between 554 and 607 firms per year. They found that the AE model had a 27% lower absolute prediction error than the FCF model and a 57% lower absolute prediction error than the DD model.Sougiannis and Yaekura (2001) also consider three multiperiod accounting based valuation methods: an earnings capitalization model (similar to FCF), residual income (a version of AE) without a terminal value, and residual income with a terminal value4. They put analyst’s earnings forecasts into the three theoretical models and find overall that they provide greater insight than merely relying on current earnings, book values or dividends. Their sample covered 36,532 firm years over the period 1981 – 1998 of which 22,705 consisted of one year forecasts, 9,420 of two year forecasts, 1,279 of three year forecasts, and 3,128 of four year forecasts. They found that the AE model with a terminal value most accurately predicted current equity values in 48% of cases, the FCF model was most accurate in 18% of cases, and the AE without a terminal value was most accurate in 13% of cases. Current income and book values provided the best forecasts for the remaining 21% of the sample.Liu, Nissim and Thomas (LNT) (2002) in an article similar to Sougiannis and Yaekura (2001) found that multiples based on analyst’s forward earnings projections (made in the same year) explain stock prices within 15% of their actual value while historical earnings, cash flow measures, book value, and sales were not nearly as insightful. LNT argue that multiples value future profits and risk better than present value forecasts. Their multiples are derived based on current earnings and stock prices.Gentry, Whitford, Sougiannis, and Aoki (2001) took a different theoretical and empirical approach comparing an accounting method which looked at the discounted value of future net income to a finance method that looked at the discounted value of FCFs to equity. Their analysis tested the closeness with which each model predicted capital gains. The sample included both US (1981 – 1998) and Japanese companies (1985– 1998). Each year had between 881 and 1034 US companies and 166 to 3652See, Aswath Damodaran, “Valuation Approaches and Metrics: A Survey of the Theory,” Stern School of Business Working Paper, November 2006. Damodaran notes that Ben Graham saw the connection between value and dividends but not with a discounted valuation model.3Abnormal earnings as discussed by Ohlson (1995) assume that the value of equity equals the sum ofbook value plus abnormal earnings.4They also report that a 4% constant growth rate provides the best terminal value, even better than onesbased on individual firm growth forecasts.Japanese companies. They found that the FCFs to equity method were not closely related to capital gains rates of return for either US or Japanese companies. In the US they found a strong relationship between cash flows associated with operations, interest, and financing (the accounting method) to capital gains; no similar relationship was found in Japan.Finally, Dontoh, Radhakrishnan, and Ronen (2007) compared the association between stock prices and accounting figures. They found that the association between stock prices and accounting numbers has been declining over time. They suggest that this may be due to increased noise in stock prices resulting from higher trading volume driven by non-information based trading.A further related literature examines the relationship between valuation and changes in dividends . These studies are concerned with market efficiency. Dividends are a straightforward concept: they are the payments made to equity holders by a company. Dividends may also be thought to include all cash payouts to equity including share repurchases, share liquidations, and cash dividends. Several studies have examined whether changes in dividends relate to changes in equity values; among these are Shiller (1981), LeRoy and Porter (1981), and Campbell and Shiller (1987). These tests generally find that stock market volatility can not be explained by subsequent changes in dividends. Larrain and Yogo (2008) take a slightly different look at equity volatility. Using a more aggregate sample they find that the majority of the change in asset prices (88%) is explained by cash flow growth while the remaining 12% is explained by changes in asset returns. They conclude that stock prices are not explained by dividend changes.The residual income method is conceptually more similar to FCF than to dividends. Residual income at its most basic equals the firm’s net income minus the cost of its capital. In the accounting literature, Ohlson’s (1991, 1995) formulation of a residual income model (RIM) is widely accepted and has been subjected to numerous tests. RIM begins with an accounting identity; namely that the change in book value equals the difference between net income and dividends. Ohlson then defines AE as the difference between net income and lagged book value. It is then a small step to observe that the present discounted value of expected future abnormal earnings plus the book value of equity equals stock price5. Jiang and Lee (2005) test both the RIM and the dividend discount model. Their test of equity volatility finds that RIM provides more and better information than dividends.3.METHODOLOGYUnlike previous studies, we rely on actual subsequent cash flows over a period of time rather than forecasts of cash flow made contemporaneously with EV. Previous researchers can be thought of as studying the consistency between contemporaneous EV determined in the market and forecasts of future cash flows. Our study does not have that focus. We instead are interested in the actual accuracy of market determined EVs. We compare EVs at a point in time to subsequent cash flows. The closer these values are the more accurate is the market in valuing companies based on their future 5See Jiang and Lee (2005), page 1466.cash flows.In order to estimate corporate value with FCFs, annual costs of capital must be estimated for each company. An alternative is to determine value using the capital cash flow (CCF) method. CCF yields the same present value as FCF6but only requires a single cost of capital estimate for each firm. This is the approach we follow.CCF is determined following Arzac (2005) as follows:CCF = net income + depreciation - capital expenditures –Δ working capital +Δ deferred taxes + net interestEstimated enterprise value (EEV) is calculated with the CCF estimates as follows:EEV =Σ(CCFi,j ) /(1+ kj )t TVj /(1+ kj )y , (i=1….y)where k is cost of capital, TV is terminal value, i is year, y is the final year with cash flow data and j represents firm. Terminal value is estimated according to the Gordon growth model. EEV estimates are compared with EV, the firm’s actual va lue as of the last trading day of the year. EV is calculated following Arzac (2005) as follows;EV = MarketCap + Debt −CashThe comparison between EV and EEV is a test of the accuracy of the market’s valuation process. Cases where EV exceeds (is less than) EEV are ones of overly optimistic (pessimistic) market valuation.4.DataWe begin with all firms with fiscal year end for which there is data for:• cash and short-term investments (data1),• total assets (data6),• current assets (data4),• current liabilities (data5),• short-term debt (data44),• long-term debt (data9),• notes payable (data206), and• deferred taxes (data74),• capital expenditures (data128)• sales (data12),• net income (data172)• depreciation (data14)• interest expense (data15)• interest income (data62)• common shares outstanding (data25),• year-end stock price (data199).This results in an initial sample of 131,518 firm-year observations. All firms are classified into their respective industries using historical SIC codes (data324).For each firm-year in the initial sample, we compute the following variables;EV = Market Cap (data199*data25) + Debt (data9 + data44 + data206)6See Arzac (2005) or Platt (2008).- Cash (data1)WC= Net current assets (data4 - data5) – cash (data1) + notes (data206)D= Long term (data9) + short term (data44 + data206)E= Share price (data199) * Number of shares (data25)(where EV is enterprise value, WC is working capital, D is debt, and E is equity) In addition we also compute lagged values for WC and deferred taxes (data74).Next, we obtain betas for firm-years from Compustat’s Research Insight. Betas are winsorized at the 1st and 99th percentiles to account for extreme outliers in the data.Interest rates based on the 10-year constant maturity series (I10YR) are obtain from the Federal Reserve Bank’s website. After merging with the interest rate data and the betas, the sample size reduces to 69,643 firm-year observations. The loss in observations is largely due to missing data on the betas or deletions due tonon-availability of lagged firm-year data.With the merged dataset, we compute the following variables, where LWC represents the lagged value of WC and Ldata74 is the lagged value for data74: CCF = net income (data172) + depreciation (data14) - capital expenditures(data128) + WC - LWC + deferred taxes (data74) - Ldata74 +interest paid (data15) –interest received (data62);βA = (1 / (1 + D/E))*βKU1 = I10YR + βA *ERP1KU2 = I10YR + βA *ERP2KU3 = I10YR + βA *ERP3;(where CCF is capital cash flow, βA is the asset beta, ERP is the equity risk premium, and KU1, KU2 and KU3 are estimates of the unlevered cost of capital for three different ERPs (ERP1 = 0.03;ERP2 = 0.05;ERP3 = 0.07)Results were essential identical regardless of the choice of ERP and so we report on those for ERP3. We then drop all observations with fiscal year greater than 2000 to allow a sufficient numbers of years of actual cash flow data to be in the dataset.From the summary files of the Institutional Brokers Estimate System (IBES) database, we extract median values of long-term growth in sales forecasts for all firms. The median value is based on all analyst estimates of long-term (5 to 10 years) growth forecasts made for each firm. Prior studies use this as a measure of the estimated growth rate for a firm’s cash flow. Many of the growth rate forecasts were extraordinarily large, and so we followed Sougiannis and Yaekura (2001) by using the growth rate in GDP instead of the IBES values.The final dataset consists of 27,027 firm-year observations with complete data on all variables of interest. Of this 2,820 firm-years are data for companies with five or more years of information. Firm’s whose last year of data had negative FCF were dropped from the sample since terminal value could not be calculated for them. This left us with 1,821 firms.Some companies in our sample have only five years of actual cash flow data; others have as many as 12 years of data. Recently it has been argued that the terminal value estimate dominates estimates of present value, see Platt and Demirkan (2008).To insure that EEV estimates are not unduly influenced by estimates of terminal value, EEV is calculated repeatedly for each company starting with using five years of data and then using more years,12 years, depending on how much data the company has available.5.CONCLUSIONWe began this paper saying that the most common explanation in finance textbooks for the value of the firm was that it equaled the present discounted value of future cash flows. Our results suggest that a better description for textbooks is that the value of the firm is related to but unequal to the present discounted value of future cash flows. In conjunction with Platt and Demirkan (2008) which finds that the TV is the principle part of EEV (i.e., approximately 92.3%) it would seem that the market values firms based on their near term (perhaps five years or fewer) subsequent cash flows. In fact, one dollar increase in future cash flows produces far less of an increase in a firm’s EV. Theoretically this conforms to a version of the Gordon (1962)two-stage growth model with a WACC based discount rate during the early period and a very high discount rate during the future period).Supporting evidence to our surprising finding appear in everyday stock market tables. For example, the following quote from of December 8, 2008 speaks precisely to our findings.“Cheapest Stocks Since 1995 Show Cash Exceeds Market(By Michael Tsang and Alexis Xydias)Dec. 8 (Bloomberg) –“Stocks have fallen so far that 2,267companies around the globe are offering profits to investors for free. That’s eight times as many as at t he end of the last bear market, when the shares rose 115 percent over the next year.Bank of New York Mellon Corp. in New York, Danieli SpA in Buttrio, Italy and Seoul-based Namyang Dairy Products Co. Hold more cash than the value of their stock and debt as the slowing world economy wiped out $32 trillion in capitalization this year.”The Bank of New York Mellon, for example, on that day had a market capitalization of $31.71 billion, debt of $35.83 billion, and cash of $75.50 billion. In this case, the market has an infinite discount rate on any and all cash flows.A possible explanation for our higher EEV estimate than actual EV is that our unlevered cost of capital (KU) estimate is too low and therefore associated with a too high TV estimate. However, we calculated three KU estimates, based on generally accepted equity risk premium (ERP) levels and then used the highest KU. It is true however, that there is a KU which equilibrates EV with our EEV.Another possible explanation is that forecasts relied upon the valuation process are inaccurate and that future cash flows far exceed what analysts had expected. We find this to be the least satisfactory explanation.REFERENCESArzac, Enrique, 2005, Valuation For Mergers, Buyouts, and Restructuring, John Wiley & Sons.Campbell, J., and Shiller, R., 1987, Cointegration and Tests of Present Value Models, Journal of Political Economy, 95(5):1062-88.Daines, R, 2001, Does Delaware law improve firm value?, Journal of Financial Economics, 62: 525-558Damodaran, A., 2006, Valuation Approaches and Metrics: A Survey of the Theory, Working Paper, Stern School of Business..Dontoh, A., Radhakrishnan, S., and Ronen, J., 2007, Is Stock Price a Good Measure for Assessing Value-Relevance of Earnings?

International journal of production economics, 2008, 56: 29-35Enterprise Value Based On The Analysis Of Financial StatementsZ Babic, N PlazibatABSTRACTAnalysis of data on the financial statements, the use of discounted cash flow method, the relative value of other methods to analyze financial statements and financial data to find useful data on the enterprise value analysis, with its inherent value is the closest a value to facilitate management by better management decisions and investment decisions of enterprises. Now, under the conditions of market economy, the enterprise itself can be traded in the market of goods, by the profits to maximize the conversion to maximize the value of. Therefore, the enterprise value based on financial statement analysis is particularly important. Financial statements as a reflection of the financial position and operating conditions of enterprises, statutory information of listed companies, the real financial statements data can reveal the enterprise's past operating results, the pros and cons of the identification of business, to forecast the future of the enterprise.The article first describes the limitations of the traditional statements and how to improve, then the enterprise value is based on the improved report.KEYWORD: Financial statements, corporate value, Enterprise value evaluation1 Introduction1 The meaning of enterprise valueThe enterprise value is accompanied by the emergence of property rights trading market in the 1960s, a concept first proposed by the U.S. regulators. Under market economy conditions, the goods of the enterprise itself is a transaction in the equity market as the commodity stakeholders, including investors, creditors, managers must understand the value of the business. Enterprise value as a commodity currency performance.1.2 Analysis of the significance of enterprise valueEnterprises maximize the value of thinking helps to improve the company. Each listedcompany to meet the interests of all creditors and preferred shareholders as a precondition (the common shareholders by the board of directors to monitor the enterprise to protect their own interests), the greater the enterprise value, the more secure the interests of creditors and preferred shareholders ; value of the enterprise, means that the higher its stock price to the shareholders. return more and more able to attract investors.1.3 Evaluate the enterprise value of the role of1.3.1 Enterprise value evaluation for enterprise managementThe enterprise value maximization as the financial targets in line with the characteristics of the enterprise itself, the enterprise value is the corporate long-term profitability. The enterprise value maximization is reasonable management on corporate finance, the optimal financial policy, and takes full account of the relationship between the time value of money and the risks and rewards on the basis of ensuring the long-term and stable development of total value.1.3.2 Enterprise value evaluation for investment decisionsAccording to the principle of the law of value in the stock market, the enterprise value determines the stock price, stock prices, in essence, the expected judgment is made by the investors in the company's future earnings, cash flow, investment risk around the enterprise value fluctuates, often deviate from the stock's intrinsic value. The market price and value deviation from the regression after a period of adjustment to the enterprise value. Therefore, the enterprise value evaluation, judgment, investors can find and purchase undervalued securities market or enterprise in order to get higher than the market average rate of return of income.2 The financial statements information to reflect the enterprisevalue2.1 The enterprise value of performance through the financial statementsThe financial statements are expressed in the statements of the enterprise value through the process and results that reflect the business activities of enterprises.The balance sheet is accounting statements reflect the financial condition of enterprises in a certain point in time to reveal the enterprise value. It's on the left is the value and the total value of the assets of the enterprises have a variety of assets; the right of the liabilities and net assets, in which the liabilities that the creditors should share the share of enterprise value,enterprise value share of the net assets owned by the owner.2.2Financial data and corporate valueFinancial report means a written document of the foreign enterprises reflect a specific date, financial condition and operating results, cash flows and other accounting information of a particular accounting period. The financial report should show at least the following components: (1) balance sheet; (2) the income statement; (3) Cash Flow Statement; (4) changes in owners' equity (or equity); (5) Note.2.3 Financial statements for the two basic approaches to the analysis of the enterprise value2.3.1 Ratio analysis and comparative analysisRatio analysis, financial statements related to the amount of contrast, to draw a series of financial indicators with a certain sense, and logical relations, in order to reveal the financial position, operating results and cash flows, an analytical skills, is a modern financial statement analysis is the most important and most commonly used analytical methods, the use of ratio analysis to analyze with simple calculation can be a significant problem characteristics. Ratio analysis and robust, but also has its limitations, if there is no comparable based on financial indicators does not make any sense. Ratio analysis to belong to the static analysis to predict the future is not absolutely reasonable and reliable, but to predict the future but it is a decisive factor for assessing enterprise value.2.3.2 DuPont Financial Analysis SystemDuPont Financial Analysis System (referred to as the DuPont system) because originally founded by the United States DuPont corporate and successful use of named. DuPont System of Financial Analysis is a popular expression, the rate of return on net assets broken down into three parts: sales net profit margin, total asset turnover and equity multiplier. Reflect the profitability of the enterprise asset management efficiency and financial leverage. It is a systematic, convenient way to financial analysis, to explain the reasons for the change and changes in trends, analysis of corporate profitability, operational capacity and capital structure and to take measures specified in the side sentence.3 The problems of the traditional financial statement analysis3.1 Unified financial statementsThe financial statements are an important source of information for enterprise valuation, the financial statements for the enterprise value assessment provides a variety of asset data, important information on the earning power of enterprise assets as a whole, the corporate equity capital cash flow ability. It can be said that the financial accounting data is more accurate, the more accurate the results of the assessment of enterprise value. After nearly a century of development, financial reporting system is being perfected the formation of the balance sheet, income statement, cash flow statement, equity changes in the accounting statements to supplement reflecting the financial resources and financial status of four tables note.3.1.1 The limitations of the historical cost principleThe historical cost principle is an important principle of the existing financial accounting, the assets of an enterprise; the actual cost of the various liabilities and so should be according to their achieved or occur. Historical cost is easy to obtain, and has the objectivity and validation features, pricing for long-term use of assets denominated in the value-added goods, and thus the industrial economy era are widely used for accounting practitioners.3.1.2 Accrual principle limitationsThe accrual is one of the pillars of the current accounting principles; the principle is based on the accounting period assumption. The principle of accrual accounting can only confirm that the business is current income has been achieved and has occurred or shall bear the cost of transactions and events have not yet actually occurred, and does not belong to the current income and expenses, you can not confirm.3.1.3 The limitations of monetary measurement principlesThis principle holds that the economic business deal in money as a measure to confirm the accounting treatment is a use of monetary measurement of business activities and results to be passed. With the increasing uncertainty in the business environment, corporate financial information reflected in the currency as the carrier has become increasingly difficult to meet the requirements of policy makers to see the profitability of the business reality requires not only as decision makers, operational information, more hope to reflect ability, creativity and comprehensive competitiveness. User preferences on the information of the same, therefore, the disclosure of the business environment, potential for development and non-monetary information to predict the future, it becomes increasingly important, and measured using the currency used in the current financial statements is ignored non-financial information on the quality of accounting information.3.2 Indicators of financial statement analysisThe system of financial statement analysis, financial indicators is the main basis for analysis and decision making. Using a series of financial indicators in the financial statements reveal the enterprise value analysis to determine the profitability of the enterprise and the level of risk in order to evaluate the value of the business. However, the existing financial index system is not yet complete, With the further strengthening of the knowledge economy, information economy and globalization, such as human resources, market share, product quality, enterprise value assessment of the important influence of non-financial indicators do not included.3.3 The traditional financial statement analysis method3.3.1 Ratio analysis and comparative analysis3.3.2 DuPont Financial Analysis SystemDuPont Financial Analysis System (referred to as the DuPont system) because originally founded by the United States DuPont corporate and successful use of named. DuPont System of Financial Analysis is a popular expression, the rate of return on net assets broken down into three parts: sales net profit margin, total asset turnover and equity multiplier. Reflect the profitability of the enterprise asset management efficiency and financial leverage. It is a systematic, convenient way to financial analysis, to explain the reasons for the change and changes in trends, analysis of corporate profitability, operational capacity and capital structure and to take measures specified in the side sentence.4 Financial statement analysis system improvements4.1 The improvement of the financial statementsThe idea of our improved financial and accounting reports on the basis of the current financial reporting system to increase the disclosure of information to meet the assessed needs of enterprise value.4.2 Improvement in the analysis of indicators of financial statements4.2.1 Profitability analysisCorporate profitability assessment into existing profitability, potential profitability, and sustained profitability analysis. The existing profitability of enterprises by the level of profitability, operational efficiency and develop the ability to reflect all the financialindicators. The potential profitability is determined by the growth of the industry and enterprise growth.4.2.2 Enterprise Risk AnalysisDue to the maximization of enterprise value is an abstract goal; there are some flaws in the use of:The value of non-listed companies to determine the degree of difficulty. Through a special assessment (such as the impact of asset evaluation) to determine its value, but the evaluation process by the evaluation criteria and evaluation methods to make valuation difficult to objectively and standards, thus affecting the accuracy and objectivity of the enterprise value. In addition to the business factors, changes in stock prices, but also by factors beyond the control of other companies.4.3 An improved method of financial statement analysis.4.3.1 To fully utilize and analyze the cash flow statementQuantitative structural analysis on the basis of the cash flow statement data, to further clear cash inflow, outflow and net flow of the composition. Can be divided into a cash inflow structure to outflow structure, the net cash flow structure and the inflow and outflow structure analysis of four aspects. Quantitative structural analysis data on the structural conditions of the cash flow statement reflects the corporate activities, including operating activities, investing activities, financing activities, the business cash flow contribution amount, to facilitate the users of financial statements to objectively judge the company's cash flow position, forecast the enterprise's future cash flows.5 Financial statements of the enterprise value5.1 Cash flow method and the comparison of the relative value of the methodThe cash flow statement cash basis, to provide enterprises a certain accounting period cash and cash equivalents inflow and outflow of information, the ability to obtain cash and cash equivalents in order to report the reader to understand and evaluate enterprise. Some enterprises although larger amounts of net profit, but due to lack of solvency which led to bankruptcy and liquidation. The ultimate goal of production and business activities in order to get more cash. Business success in the long run, depending on the recovery of cash is greater than the degree of consumption or investment in cash. Correspondence analysis, net operating cash flow and net profit can also check the quality of the profit.5.2 EV A analysis and relative value method of comparisonEV A is the English abbreviation of Economic Value Added, and can be translated as: capital increase in economic value added economic value or economic value added. EV A index of the basic idea is: rational investors look forward to the opportunity cost of gains exceed its assets by the cast of assets, namely, to obtain the incremental benefit.6 Financial analysis of the enterprise value6.1 Enterprise value evaluation method6.1.1 Discounted cash flow methodCash flows for the state of the business impact analysis:Sources of cash that is, the ratio of operating activities, investing activities, financing activities Net cash flow / Total sources of cash × 100%. This ratio shows the proportion of the source of all their cash flows to reflect the development of enterprises need of a cash flow from the source of funds dependence.6.1.2 Relative value of the methodRelative value of the method uses the ratio valuation method you first need to select a group of comparable companies, will need to calculate the ratio of this group mean or median as a benchmark rate, and then pricing the company's actual rate value and the base rate values were compared, to reflect the company whether there is "intrinsic value".7 ConclusionsThrough the analysis of the above financial information and the following conclusions: In general, all ratios tools error of plus or minus is not clear, but the mean measure of the deviation to be more accurate than the median measure of deviation.Ratio results of the assessment of the value of the company when excluding non-tradable shares and the value contains the non-tradable shares assessment results are not totally consistent. Contains the non-tradable shares of the company valuation, based on the higher accuracy of the ratio of the asset's carrying amount and the total profit, while the lowest operating profit ratio accuracy. Assessment of the total value contains the non-tradable shares, based on the lowest accuracy of the main business profit and operating profit ratio, based on the higher accuracy of the ratio of main business income and total profit.基于财务报表分析企业价值Z Babic, N Plazibat摘要随着市场经济的不断发展，越来越多的人开始注意到企业价值的重要性，并且开始对企业的价值进行研究，而且是以财务报表作为价值研究的基础，并对企业有重大的影响，所以基于财务报表对企业价值的研究对企业价值管理有重要的意义。

What the proportions do is that they uncover the relationship in a more important manner in order to empower us to reach inferences from th As indicated by look into by the Yating yang and 11. W. Chuang. on 'Monetary Ratio Adjustment Process: Evidence from Taiwan and North America. measurable legitimacy of the proportion strategy in monetary articulation examination is researched. The outcomes hence recommend that the proportion approach is a valuable instrument in monetary explanation investigation, particularly when an arrangement of proportions is utilized to assess an association's execution.

The models fused into (MAP give general consistency in assumes that are thusly used to ascertain imperative money related proportions that financial specialists and investigators use to assess the organization. Indeed, even agreeable monetary records can be trying to unravel, yet without a framework characterizing every class of section, corporate money related articulations would be basically dark and uselessThere are seven fundamental rule that guide the foundation of the Generall Accepted Accounting Principles. The standards of normality, consistency, perpetuality and genuineness go towardsurging organizations to utilize the legitimate bookkeeping hones quarter after quarter in a decent confidence push to demonstrate the genuine money related state of the organization. None remuneration judiciousness and progression build up rules for how to set up a monetary record, by and large to report the budgetary status of the organization as it is without treatin resources in irregular ways that distort the operations of the organization just to balance different sections. The rule of periodicity basic implies that salary to be gotten extra time ought to be recorded as it is booked to be gotten, not in a singular amountThe brought together arrangement of bookkeeping in this manner has various advantages. Not exclusively does it give a specific level of straightforwardness into an organization's funds. it likewise makes for generally simple examinations between organizations. Subsequently, GAAPempowers venture by helping financial specialists pick shrewdly. GAAP gives America organizations preference over remote ones where financial specialists, unless they have a cozy comprehension of the business may have a great deal more trouble figuring the potential dangers and prizes of a venture. GAAP applies to U.S.-based enterprises just, however every other real nation has bookkeeping measures set up for their local organizations. Now and again remote bookkeeping is genuinely like U.S. GAAP, changing in just minor and fectively represented ways. In different cases, the models change fundamentally aking direct examinations questionable, best case scenarioAdvantages and Limitations of Financial Ratio Analysis Financial ratio analysis is a useful tool for users of financial statement.
