Your KPIs

Where to find it

My Company → KPI. Your KPIs are calculated from your imported trial balances, so there's nothing to set up: once your data is in, they're there.

The categories

• Financial Performance: gross profit, operating profit and net income percentages, EBITDA, and the strategic profit model.
• Profitability: return on equity, return on assets, times interest earned.
• Efficiency Ratios: AR and AP turnover and days, inventory days, PP&E turnover, the operating cycle.
• Leverage Ratios: debt to equity, revenue to equity, asset turnover, equity to overhead, financial leverage.
• Liquidity Ratios: working capital, current ratio, quick ratio, days of cash, working capital turnover.
• Industry Ratios: cash to revenue, equity to revenue.

Reading a KPI

Choose a period and choose Go. Each KPI shows:

• Its formula, in words, and its category.
• The previous period and the current period, side by side.
• Its history, charted over the range you chose.
• Underlying Numbers: the figures from your statements that go into it.

Click a KPI's name for a plain-English explanation of what it measures. Use the tabs, or the arrow keys, to move between the KPIs in a category, and pop any KPI out into its own window.

Choosing what you see

• Template: your KPIs follow the statement template you pick, or the master template.
• Category and KPI: narrow to one category or one KPI.
• Calendar: monthly, quarterly or annual periods, or year to date.
• Include Right-of-Use Asset: adds the lease accounts you mapped on the Reconciliation page to the asset-based KPIs.

KPIs are calculated in the app from your data, the same way every time. Lou explains them; he doesn't calculate them himself.
