Front Cover
True Tamplin, Sep 29, 2022 - Business & Economics - 596 pages

The finance industry is a confusing space with lots of jargon and acronyms, and no single ratio tells you the full story of what is happening within a company.


This book is intended to function as a handy guide to understand 140 of the most common financial ratios.


The Handy Financial Ratios Guide is organized by 6 types of financial ratios:

1. Coverage Ratios

2. Efficiency Ratios

3. Liquidity Ratios

4. Profitability Ratios

5. Solvency Ratios

6. Valuation Ratios


Each ratio has an explanation of what it is, a formula for it is calculated, and an example of how it is used.


We have also included a QR code to the web version of each financial ratio which includes a calculator which allows you to plug in your own values.


Our hope is that this book can serve as a useful reference to those just getting started in the finance industry.
