Financial Report Sample 1

Apple Inc. Income Statement Analysis Sample

In this section of the financial report, I walk you through a broad definition as to what an income statement is and why it is important.  From this, I then discuss and define important income statement line items, such as revenues, gross profits, etc. in detail.  Finally, I offer a summary analysis of the company's important income statement line item trends.  For example,...

Apple's Cost of Goods Sold.

Apple’s cost of goods sold as compared to revenues increased from 61.5% in 2017 to 62.2% in 2019.  This increase may indicate that the firm had lowered the prices of their products or their cost of goods increased, but the company was not able to pass on the increased prices to consumers through higher-priced products.

From 2019 to 2021, the organization was able to reduce its cost of goods as compared to revenues from 62.2% to 58.2%.  This indicates that the company either did a better job with negotiating raw material prices or the firm increased product prices to cover the elevated raw material costs.

Apple Inc. Balance Sheet Analysis Sample

In this section of the financial report, I walk you through a broad definition of what a balance sheet is and why it is important.  From this, I then discuss and define important balance sheet line items, such as cash, inventory, etc., in detail.  Finally, I offer a summary analysis of the company's important balance sheet line item trends.  For example,...

Apple's Property, Plant, and Equipment

Apple’s property, plant, and equipment in 2019 were $37.3 billion, which was 108.5% of sales.  In the next two years, the organization’s property, plant, and equipment would climb modestly to $39.4 billion.  However, their property, plant, and equipment as compared to sales would only be 89.9%.  This shows that the firm continually increased its equipment and property usage capacity to meet sales demands.  An excellent trend!

Apple Inc. Financial Ratios Sample

In this section of the financial report, I walk you through definitions of various popular financial ratios, how to calculate the ratios, formulas used, etc. Also, for some popular financial ratios, I provide brief explanations of what the ratios mean as it is related to the company.

Apple's Quick Ratio

Apple’s quick ratio as of 2021 is 1.02.  The ratio is down moderately from the previous year of 1.33.  Most companies in the tech industry, based on my experience and recollection, have quick ratios slightly below 1.0.  So, with 1.01 as a quick ratio, this is not too bad.  However, it could be a little bit lower for optimal short-term asset utilization.

Apple's Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio

In 2018, Apple’s fixed asset turnover was 6.4.  In the next four years, the firm would continually improve the utilization of its fixed assets, ending 2021 at 9.28.  This shows that the company is improving the utilization of its fixed assets on a continuous basis.
