4.6 Common Size Statement
Common Size Statement, also known as component percentage statement, is a
financial tool for studying the key changes and trends in the financial position
and operational result of a company. Here, each item in the statement is stated
‘as a percentage of the aggregate, of which that item is a part. For example, a
‘common size balance sheet shows the percentage of each asset to the total assets,
‘and that of each liability to the total liabilities. Similarly, in the common size
‘statement of profit and loss, the items of expenditure are shown as a percentage
of the net revenue from operations. If such a statement is prepared for successive
periods, it shows the changes of the respective percentages over a period of time.
‘Common size analysis is of immense use for comparing enterprises which
differ substantially in size as it provides an insight into the structure of financial
‘statements. Inter-firm comparison or comparison of the company’s position
sath the related industry as a whole is possible with the help of common size
statement analysis.
‘The following procedure may be adopted for preparing the common size
statements.
1. List out absolute figures in rupees at two points of time, say year 1,
and year 2 (Column 2 & 4 of Exhibit 4.2).
2. Choose a common base (as 100). For example, revenue
may be taken as base (100) in case of statement eat entiaeies
total assets or total liabilities (100) in case of balance sheet.
