Since 2017 will serve as the base year, the denominator for all calculations will be the $150,000 in net sales from that year.
2017: 2018: 2019:
= 150,000 / 150,000 = 234,560 / 150,000 = 252,600 / 150,000
= 100% = 156.37% = 168.40%
2020: 2021:
= 270,800 / 150,000 = 282,880 / 150,000
= 180.53% = 188.59%
The upward trend in this trend's net sales is encouraging.
What is the trend for cost of goods sold?
2017: 2018: 2019:
= 67,000 / 67,000 = 106,440 / 67,000 = 115,280 / 67,000
= 100% = 158.87% = 172.06%
2020: 2021:
= 122,080 /67,000 = 128,200 / 67,000
= 182.21% = 191.34%
This is Unfavorable since the cost of the goods is an expense.
What is the trend for accounts receivable?
2017: 2018: 2019:
= 9,000 / 9,000 = 15,200/ 9,000 = 16,400 / 9,000
= 100% = 168.87% = 182.22%
2020: 2021:
= 17,300 / 9,000 = 18,100 / 9,000
= 192.22% = 201.11%
More Accounts Receivables are a negative because the business needs cash, so they should be reduced.
