Module 6: Evaluating the financial performance of a business
You work with the same company (see question 5) which asks you to assess its financial performance. After you calculated the cost of capital (answer to question 1 was 8% and you will use this figure and the same parameters of this question for the whole exercise), you have a look at the accounts:
- Sales 200
- EBIT 30
- CE 100
In order to show where profitability comes from, you will calculate the Economic Profit with two different methods and get to the same result.
