VentureLine Description
Year-to-year comparisons are a great way to identify trends and highlight the need for action. VentureLine's five year accounting ratios combined with a common size analysis make trend ratio analysis more effective. Good or poor performance can be easily identified by comparing financial analysis over time. VentureLine offers cross-sectional financial analysis tools that allow you to compare financial ratios between companies within the same industry or two companies operating in similar business lines. Expert analysts recommend the most efficient form of cross-sectional analysis: comparing a company’s financial ratios and common sizes to industry ratios or percentages in which it competes. Common size financial statements can be used to visualize potential problems and missteps within a company. Common size financial statements remove the dollars and cents and reflect account balances in percentages.
