companies towards bankruptcy within two years. The five factors considered
as common business ratios are; earnings before interest and tax (debit)/total
assets ratio, sales/total assets ratio, market value of equity/market value of
total liabilities, working capital/total asset ratio and retained earnings/total
assets (Edward, 1968).

The DuPont Analysis
The Dupont analysis or Dupont model is a financial ratio based on
the return on equity ratios used in analyzing a company's ability to increase
their return for investors with these three (3) counterparts; namely (i) profit
margin, (ii) total asset turnover and (iii) financial leverage. Based on these
three performances measures the model concludes that a company can raise
its ROE by maintaining a high profit margin, increasing asset turnover, or
leveraging assets more effectively.
