Ratios are valuable for assessing business performance at strategic and operational levels. A ratio is simply a relationship between two numbers; but, when compared to the same ratios for previous periods, they can show important trends and patterns in performance.
Ratios are valuable, practical tools: they not only support the analysis stage of the decision-making process but they also help in monitoring the decision and how successful it is. They inform management decisions in a practical and invaluable way, and can often help to avoid inappropriate or even damaging decisions.
