Financial Performance
Measures and Their Effects
Merchant, Management Control Systems PowerPoints on the Web, 3rd edition, Pearson Education Limited 2012
Slide 10.2
Summary measures
Two types
Market measures
Reflect changes in stock prices or shareholder returns
Accounting measures
Defined in either residual terms (net income after taxes, operating
profit, residual income, economic value added) or ratio terms (return
on investment, return on equity, return on net assets)

Market measures

Slide 10.4
Limitations
Congruence
Market measures are heavily influenced by future
expectations, but these might not be realized
Market valuations can be affected by carefully-timed or
managed disclosures that are not always in the firms
long-term interest
Market efficiency?
Due to competitive sensitivities, markets are not always
fully informed about a companys plans and prospects,
and hence, its future cash flows and risks
Other anomalies

Slide 10.5
Limitations (continued)
Feasibility
Market measures are not available either for privately-held firms or
wholly-owned subsidiaries or divisions, and they are not applicable
to not-for-profit organizations
Controllability
Market measures can generally be affected to a significant extent
only by the top few managers in the organization, those who have
the power to make decisions of major importance

Slide 10.6
Accounting measures
Congruent
In for-profit firms, accounting profits or returns are relatively
congruent with the true firm goal of maximizing shareholder value
Positive correlations between accounting profits and changes in
stock prices
Understandable

Slide 10.9
Return on Investment
ROI is a ratio of the accounting profits earned by
the business unit divided by the investment
assigned to it
ROI = profits investment base
Residual Income
RI is a dollar amount obtained by subtracting a
capital charge from the reported accounting profits
RI = profits capital charge

Slide 10.10
Numerator
Accounting profits
ROI contains all problems associated with these profit
measures
Denominator
How to measure the fixed assets portion?
Suboptimization
ROI measures can lead division managers to make
decisions that improve division ROI even though the
decisions are not in the corporation's best interest
