What Is the Fixed Asset Turnover?
This formula examines how much money needs to be invested (in the form of capital) in order to generate a quantity of profit.
Why Is it Important?
- The more resources that are required to earn a profit, the less valuable the investment. Having a formula that provides a window into capital requirements provides a means for valuing ongoing business processes and (just as importantly) assists investors in determining whether a venture is worthy of investment.
Formula(s) to Calculate Fixed Asset Turnover
- FIXED ASSET TURNOVER = NET SALES / (FIXED ASSETS - ACCUMULATED DEPRECIATION )
Common Mistakes
- Ignoring strategic benefits of an ongoing concern. A venture that provides little in the way of tangible profits but increases goodwill, customer discovery, or prevents entry into a sector by competitors may well be worth the cost.
