Chapter Objective

Explain different financial and non-financial systems

Definition of “Controlling”

“compelling events to conform to plans” -- Goetz

“Control techniques and actions are intended to insure, as far as possible, that the organization does what management wants it to do.”

Steps in the Control Process

4. Corrective Action

2. Measuring Actual Performance

3. Comparing Performance with Standards

1. Establish Standards

Planning

Controlling

Closed-Loop vs. Open-Loop Control

Closed-loop control (also known as automatic or cybernetic control) monitors and manages a process by means of a self-regulating system.

 Open-loop control (or non-cybernetic control) requires an external monitoring system and/or an external agent to complete the control loop.

3 Perspectives on the Timing of Control

Feed-back control. Screening or concurrent control. Feed-forward (or preliminary or steering) control.

Timing of Control

Feedback Control (Output)Measures system output and variance

with predetermined standardAdjusts system to maintain variance

within a specified range

Timing of Control

Screening Control (Concurrent)Control applied concurrently with

effort being controlled

Timing of Control

Feedforward Control (Steering or Preliminary)Attempts to predict the impact of

current actions/eventsCurrent decisions are refined to

facilitate goal attainment

Characteristics of Effective Control

Effective. Efficient. Timely. Flexible. Understandable. Tailored. Highlight deviations. Lead to corrective action.

Three Types of Control

Financial

Human Resource

Social

FINANCIAL CONTROLSFinancial statements provide the

basic information for the control of cash and credit, which are essential to the survival of a company.

 The balance sheetThe income statement, and The cash flow statement.

Balance SheetBalance sheet shows the firm's financial

position at a particular instant in time (a financial "snapshot.“)

Assets are what the company "owns" current assets (assets that can be converted into cash within a year)fixed assets (property, plant, and equipment at original cost, less the cumulative depreciation of plant and equipment [but not land] and depletion of natural resources since they were purchased).

Balance SheetLiabilities are what the firm "owes" current liabilities (must be paid within

a year) long-term debt.

Net worth or Equity (difference between assets and liabilities) original investment (what was paid in

for common and preferred stock) retained earnings (the cumulative

profits over the years after dividends are paid).

Ratio Analysis Financial ratios are ratios of two financial

numbers taken from the balance sheet and/or the income statement. compared with average values for the industry the firm is in to evaluate relative financial health, and compared with earlier values from the same firm to evaluate trends.

Liquidity RatiosLiquidity ratios measure the ability

to meet short-term obligations. Current ratio = Current Assets / Current

Liabilities (Min. 2)

Acid test ratio = [Current Assets – Inventory] / Current

Liabilities (Min. 1)

Leverage RatiosLeverage ratios identify the relative

importance of stockholders and outside creditors as a source of the enterprise's capital.

Debt-to-assets ratio = Total Debt / Total AssetsDebt-to-equity ratio = Total Debt / Total Equity

Activity RatiosActivity ratios (also known as

operating ratios) show how effectively the firm is using its resources. Inventory turnover = [Cost of good sold] / InventoryAsset turnover = [Net sales] / Total assetsAccounts receivable turnover = [Net sales] /[Accounts receivable]

Profitability RatiosProfitability ratios describe the

organization's profit. Profit margin = [Net income] / [Net sales]Return on total assets =[Net income] / [Total assets]Earning per share = [Net income – Dividends (P.S.)] / [# of outstanding shares]
