- Chapter 15 Analysis and Impact of Leverage
- Slide 2
- What is Leverage Company A: sales increases 2.9 percent, but net income increases 16.9 percent. Company B: sales decreases 3.6 percent, but net income decreases 19.4 percent.
- Slide 3
- Two concepts that enhance our understanding of risk... 1) Operating Leverage - affects a firms business risk. 2) Financial Leverage - affects a firms financial risk.
- Slide 4
- Business Risk The variability or uncertainty of a firms operating income (EBIT). FIRM EBIT EPS Stock-holders
- Slide 5
- Business Risk Affected by: Sales volume variability Competition Product diversification Operating leverage Growth prospects Size
- Slide 6
- Operating Leverage The use of fixed operating costs as opposed to variable operating costs. A firm with relatively high fixed operating costs will experience more variable operating income if sales change.
- Slide 7
- Financial Risk The variability or uncertainty of a firms earnings per share (EPS) and the increased probability of insolvency that arises when a firm uses financial leverage. FIRM EBIT EPS Stock-holders
- Slide 8
- Financial Leverage The use of fixed-cost sources of financing (debt, preferred stock) rather than variable-cost sources (common stock).
- Slide 9
- Breakeven Analysis Illustrates the effects of operating leverage. Useful for forecasting the profitability of a firm, division, or product line. Useful for analyzing the impact of changes in fixed costs, variable costs, and sales price.
- Slide 10
- Costs Suppose the firm has both fixed operating costs (administrative salaries, insurance, rent, property tax) and variable operating costs (materials, labor, energy, packaging, sales commissions).
- Slide 11
- Operating Leverage What happens if the firm increases its fixed operating costs and reduces (or eliminates) its variable costs?
- Slide 12
- Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost FC Break- even point Q1Q1 + - } EBIT
- Slide 13
- Quantity { $ Total Revenue Total Cost = Fixed FC Break-even point } Q1Q1 + - EBIT
- Slide 14
- With high operating leverage, an increase in sales produces a relatively larger increase in operating income.
- Slide 15
- Breakeven point (units of output) Q B = breakeven level of Q. F = total anticipated fixed costs. P = sales price per unit. V = variable cost per unit. Breakeven Calculations Q B = F P - V
- Slide 16
- Breakeven point (sales dollars) S* = breakeven level of sales. F = total anticipated fixed costs. S = total sales. VC = total variable costs. Breakeven Calculations S* = F VC S 1 -
- Slide 17
- Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) Operating leverage: by using fixed operating costs, a small change in sales revenue is magnified into a larger change in operating income. This multiplier effect is called the degree of operating leverage.
- Slide 18
- DOLs = % change in EBIT % change in sales change in EBIT EBIT change in sales sales = Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S)
- Slide 19
- If we have the data, we can use this formula: Degree of Operating Leverage from Sales Level (S) Q(P - V) Q(P - V) - F = DOLs = Sales - Variable Costs EBIT
- Slide 20
- What does this tell us? If DOL = 2, then a 1% increase in sales will result in a 2% increase in operating income (EBIT). Stock- holders EBIT EPS Sales
- Slide 21
- Degree of Financial Leverage (DFL) Financial leverage: by using fixed cost financing, a small change in operating income is magnified into a larger change in earnings per share. This multiplier effect is called the degree of financial leverage.
- Slide 22
- DFL = % change in EPS % change in EBIT change in EPS EPS change in EBIT EBIT Degree of Financial Leverage =
- Slide 23
- DFL = EBIT EBIT - I If we have the data, we can use this formula:
- Slide 24
- What does this tell us? If DFL = 3, then a 1% increase in operating income will result in a 3% increase in earnings per share. Stock- holders EBIT EPS Sales
- Slide 25
- Degree of Combined Leverage (DCL) Combined leverage: by using operating leverage and financial leverage, a small change in sales is magnified into a larger change in earnings per share. This multiplier effect is called the degree of combined leverage.
- Slide 26
- DCL = DOL x DFL Degree of Combined Leverage = % change in EPS % change in Sales change in EPS EPS change in Sales Sales =
- Slide 27
- Degree of Combined Leverage If we have the data, we can use this formula: DCL = Sales - Variable Costs EBIT - I Q(P - V) Q(P - V) - F - I =
- Slide 28
- What does this tell us? If DCL = 4, then a 1% increase in sales will result in a 4% increase in earnings per share. Stock- holders EBIT EPS Sales
- Slide 29
- In-class Project: Based on the following information on Levered Company, answer these questions: 1) If sales increase by 10%, what should happen to operating income? 2) If operating income increases by 10%, what should happen to EPS? 3) If sales increase by 10%, what should be the effect on EPS?
