Ratios比率

1.The most frequently used ratio among investors is the price-earnings ratio.

投資者最常用的比率就是價格收益比率。

2.Financial analysts, investors, and managers use ratios to evaluate manyfactors such as the attractiveness of a stock or the operating efficiency of a company.經(jīng)濟分析師、投資者和管理者都是用比率來評估許多方面的事情，如一只股票的吸引力，或者一個公司的運營效率。

3.Liquidity ratios are probably the most commonly used of all the businessratios. Your creditors may often be particularly interested in these because they show the ability of your business to quickly generate the cash needed to pay your bills.流動資金比率可能是所有商業(yè)比率中最常用的。你的債權(quán)人往往會對這些比率特別感興趣，因為它們顯示你的業(yè)務(wù)是否有迅速產(chǎn)生現(xiàn)金的能力，而現(xiàn)金是用來還款的。

4.The current ratio is a way of looking at your working capital and measuringyour short-term solvency. The ratio is in the format x︰y, where x is the amount of all current assets and y is the amount of all current liabilities.流動資金比率是考察你的運營資金以及短期償債能力的指標(biāo)。這個比率以X︰Y的形式表示，X表示全部流動資產(chǎn)，而Y代表全部流動負債。

5.For example, if your current assets total￥50，000 and your currentliabilities total￥40，000，the poor 5︰4 current ratio changes to a better 2︰1 ratio if￥15，000 of long-term debt is used to refinance an equal amount of short-term debt（you'll now have￥50，000 in current assets to￥25，000 in current liabilities）.例如，假設(shè)你的流動資產(chǎn)為50000元，而你的流動負債為40000元，這是個很差的5︰4的比率；如果你用15000元的長期債務(wù)再融資抵消數(shù)額相同的短期債務(wù)（現(xiàn)在你就有50000元的流動資產(chǎn)對比25000元的流動負債），這個比率就變成了比較好的2︰1。
