KIM LEE,he prepared the following common sized data from their recent annual report and has estimated sales for 2008 using a forecasting model his fim developed for consume goods.
2008 forecast 2007 actual 2006 actual
sales $ million 2250 2150 1990
sales as % of sales 100% 100%
cost of goods sold 45% 45%
operating expenses 40% 40%
interest expenses 3.72% 4.02%
restructing expense 0% 7.2%
pre-tax margin 11.28% 3.78%
taxes(35%) 3.95% 1.32%
net income 7.33% 2.46%
the capital structure has not changed.the projiected net income for 2008 is closed to:
答案是:2250-cost of goods sold(2250×45%)-operating expenses (2250×40%) -interest expenses (2250×3.72%)-taxes
请问一下:计算net income时,为什么不减去restructing expense ,但是在财务报表里,non-recurring item是记入income statement from continuing operation before tax,因此,计算net income 时,不是应该要从sales中减去吗?
它的解释是restructing expense should not be included as it is a non-recurring item.难道是因为2007年是0%,所以2008年其实也是0,而计算中其实减去了就是没有写在上面,就是说我的理解是正确的?还是什么意思。那如果是这样,它的估计只看2007年的比例就行了,不用管2006年的是吗?
请问一下大家,不知道我的理解可对啊?
