Financial Ratio Analysis Template for Cooperatives

This template is designed to assist managers and board members

in calculating and interpretating standard financial ratios.
Up to five years of financial statement information can be
entered on the income statement and balance sheet worksheets.
The ratio worksheet calculates common financial ratios and provides
industry benchmarks. A "red light" "green light" analysis
illustrates which ratios are unacceptable (red light) or
exceeding standards (green light). Calculated ratios
close to industry standards do not trigger either a "red light"
or a "green light".
Other sheets on the template provides graphs
of the common ratios.
input cell color
Input information is entered in the green cells on the
income statement and balance sheet pages.
Calculation cells are protected. The template can be
modified by turning off the protection. Before modifying the
template you should save a master copy under a different file name.
