EPS is one of the most widely quoted statistics when there is a discussion of a company’s performance or share value.
ROE is arguably the most important in business finance. It measures the absolute return delivered to the shareholders. A good figure brings success to the business—it results in a share price and makes it easy to attract new fund. These will enable the company to grow, given suitable market conditions and this in turn leads to greater profits and so on.

ROE of 15 percent is a very satisfactory return.

6. Liquidity
Current ratio = CA/CL
Quick ratio = CA-INV/CL
Working capital to sales percentage

Comment
The current ratio is a favorite of the Bank that lends money. CA is cash and near-cash. Bank expects to see cash surplus. We look for a value in excess of 1.0.

The quick ratio remove inventory from the CA. The reason for excluding the inventory figure is that its liquidity can be a problem. Some types of inventories have difficulties of liquidity or difficult to covert into cash.
