Personnel Productivity & Profit Ratio Your business Feedback
Income per Dollar Spent on Wages and Sub-Contractors
$1.71
Your result is at the lower end of the range - not an especially good result. Very low figures may indicate that you aren't putting a high enough markup on costs, or your hourly rates are too low, or you have too much downtime.
Gross Profit per Dollar Spent on Wages and Sub-Contractors
$0.49
Low gross profit productivity can be fixed (eg) by: lifting hourly rates; improved purchasing and stock control to minimise materials costs; improved site security to reduce losses; more productive hours being worked.
Net Profit per Owner $183,081 A net profit around the middle of the range is not a bad result. Keep fine-tuning your other results to see if this can be improved further.
Margins Ratio Your business Feedback
Materials used as % of total income
32.39%
Your result for materials is around mid-range. Review your purchasing policies to make sure you get materials at the right price; minimise wastage and 're-work' too, which increase your total outlay.
Sub-contractors as % of total income
39.00% Very high cost for sub-contractors reflects your approach to the operation of the firm. It gives plenty of flexibility in handling larger projects, if required.
Total Overheads 16.93% This is an excellent result. However, don't starve the business with too tight a control on the 'investment' costs such as promotion, equipment etc.
Net Profit (*bos) 11.67% A net profit around the middle of the range is not a bad result. Keep fine-tuning your other results to see if this can be improved further.
Major Overheads as a % of Total Income Ratio Your business Feedback
Vehicle operating costs 1.40% Your vehicle-related expense is reasonably typical of the rest of the industry.
Employees' Wages & Salaries (excludes the owners' wages)
12.99%
Your result is at the upper end of the range. Check your personnel productivity to make sure you have the right number of people; check your local market to see that you are paying competitive wages.
Interest, Bank Charges etc 0.00%
Your result is influenced by your approach to 'debt' vs 'equity'. Keep talking to your bank to make sure you have the best possible package of bank charges and interest, to minimise your total outlay on these items.
Other Depreciation, Lease, Hire-Purchase etc
0.32% Make sure you have a suitable range of equipment - that will determine whether your result is satisfactory, or out of balance.
Asset Levels Ratio Your business Feedback
Asset Turnover $7.25 Your asset turnover is well above-average - this is a good result as long as the business has all the assets it reasonably needs in order to function efficiently.

Business Valuation
The purpose of a valuation is to determine the Fair Market Value of a business. Fair Market Value is ordinarily attributed to the well recognised willing but not anxious purchaser and vendor analogy where there is equitable value to both parties involved in a transaction according to the particular circumstances surrounding the transaction.
There are three business valuation methods that are currently generally accepted:
i. Asset Valuation Method - calculates the value of tangible and intangible assets available to be transferred on the sale of the business
ii. Discounted Cash Flow Analysis - determines the present value of future opportunities or cash flow
iii. Capitalisation of Profits - multiplies a business's adjusted earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) by a capitalisation factor, which is specific to each business and the particular point in time
This Business Valuation adopts the Capitalisation of Profits method and values the business as a going concern.
The capitalisation rate has been calculated based on the weighted adjusted EBIT and Business Valuation Parameters. The capitalisation rate is unique to this business and will provide sufficient return to a purchaser to allow them to recoup their investment with post tax funds over the investment payback period.
The capitalisation rate for this business is:
The business valuation is determined by multiplying the weighted adjusted EBIT by the capitalisation rate. The value of this business is calculated as follows:

Personnel
Note: FTE stands for Full Time Equivalent (NOT headcount). Some people in your business may have only worked for part of the year or are part time. In these cases, the full time equivalent is less than 1.
For example, if a person worked 500 hours in the 12 months ending June of the applicable year and for that position type, 1800 hours is expected to be full time, then the FTE is 500/1800 = 0.28 FTE. Another way to determine the FTE is based on how many days a week a person works. If an employee works 3 full days per week, the FTE is 3 working days / 5 weekdays= 0.6 FTE.

Ratio Definitions
Total Income is all contract earnings, sales, rebates, discounts, commission received, plus any other trading income. It is expressed in dollars.
Materials Used as % of total income
Sub-contractors is all payments made to independent contractors. This figure excludes any payments to 'employees' who are being paid on contract.
Gross Profit as % of total income
Aim for a higher Gross Profit margin - it reflects better overall purchasing and pricing policies, and better control over materials. A high gross profit can also result from low outlays on 'materials' and high 'labour' input.
Overheads as %s of total income
Lower results are generally better here. However, the real issue is to maximise the value from each expense item. Any payments to or for the owners (eg, wages, superannuation, FBT, etc) have been omitted from this list - they have been treated as part of the profit figure below.
Net Profit as % of total income
A higher Net Profit will normally reflect a more efficient or profitable operation. It will also be influenced, however, by structural considerations such as the number of employees (whose salaries are included as part of the overhead structure) as opposed to active owners (whose salaries are included as part of 'Net Profit' rather than 'Salaries'). Note that owner wages have been excluded from Overheads to reflect a total Net Profit available to the owners.
Net Profit per Working Owner
This ratio is calculated by dividing the Net Profit by the number of owners actively working in the business. Owners are expressed in terms of Full Time Equivalents - see Personnel for the definition of the term. Higher figures are generally
Prepared by: The Benchmarking Group Pty Ltd Sample Report 2018
26
considered to be better.
Net Profit per Owner Work-hour
Higher results are better here. This figure represents your effective 'hourly earning rate' from the business, pre-tax.
Total Income per $ of Wages and Contractor Payments
# the notional owner wages is calculated here and elsewhere by multiplying the hours worked by the owners in the year by a notional hourly rate of $50. Aim for a higher result.
Gross Profit per Person
Higher results are better here.
Gross Profit per $ of Wages and Contractor Payments
A higher result is preferred for this indicator.
Non-Personnel-Related Overheads per Person, and per $ of Wages and Contractor Payments
Again the calculation is similar to those preceding it, but the top line of the calculation is made up by adding together all the non-personnel overheads. Essentially this is all the overheads except wages and staff on-costs. Aim for lower results here.
Personnel
Personnel are calculated in terms of Full Time Equivalents (FTEs). This means that if an employee or owner works in the business, say 2 days per 5-day week, this person has a FTE of 0.4. Similarly if a full time position started half way through the year, the person in it would have an FTE of 0.5. Contract employees are included in the business's personnel, but independent sub-contractors are not included in this figure.
Hours Worked per Owner per Year
This is the total hours worked in the business by all owners within the financial year, divided by the number of working owners (in FTEs).
Owners' Equity as % of total assets is the proportion of assets which are funded by the owners.
Prepared by: The Benchmarking Group Pty Ltd Sample Report 2018
27
When arriving at Total Assets and Total Liabilities (here and elsewhere in the figures), loans to and from owners and related companies are excluded. We treat them as drawings (reduces equity) or contributed capital (increases equity) respectively.
Asset Turnover is calculated by dividing Total Income by Total Assets. Aim for higher results here - it indicates that you are earning more revenue from each dollar of assets.
Days' Debtors represents the average number of days your debtors take to pay their account
Cash flow problems may arise if this figure is too high.
% Revenue drops before Losses Start ('Margin of safety')
This ratio shows the extent to which your income can fall before the business starts to incur losses. A higher result consequently reflects greater capacity to withstand a sudden fall in contracts.
Growth Capacity
This is a ratio which shows whether the firm can afford to fund its growth. If the result here is a large positive number, then 'growth' should be reasonably easy to fund; if the result is negative, then growing the business will demand more working capital than the additional profit which is generated. A negative (or even a low positive result) is therefore a warning sign. To improve this ratio, either work to increase the 'profit' aspect of the equation, or work to reduce the working capital requirements of the business. Your accountant can help you with advice tailored to your own specific situation, if required.
