Dell Executive Summary

Superior Essays
Based on my analysis of dell’s finances and competitors, we have declined in revenue by about 6% year-over-year to 14 billion in the company’s quarter ending in July of 2014. Securities and exchange commission by Dell holding Inc. that owns Dell is the way we found out about this new. Dell’s revenues was up however in the company’s fiscal year ending in January 2015, the revenue went up about 5%. That actually sets them apart from its huge competitors like IBM Corp. and Hewlett-Packard Co. We also know that Dell took a hit because in 2013 Dell’s company’s operating profit hit 4 billion and in 2015 the operating profit only hit 3.2 billion. That .8 billion probably doesn’t seem like a lot but for a company like dell it probably hurts them.

Dell has been losing revenue since 2013 until now. I know Dell has a lot of debit that they own other companies

The total net profit of Dell has experienced a percentage increase from 2015 to 2016 because of the new EMC deal. The difference was like from 5.7 percent in 2015 to 9 percent in 2016 which says that Dell was able to see a lot more money earned through its operations. Well, like I said the reason for that small increase in percentage changes was the EMC deal that was the biggest thing that Dell has done in a while. While cost of goods sold in 2016 went down by a really small percentage from the previous year. That resulted in the growth of Dell’s gross profit and comparatively net income. These differences are not huge changes as they were all less than 18 or 10 percent. May be small, but these changes certainly had a big contributed to the overall gaining of the company and says that its operations through the common size income statement are surely better. The statement of financial position puts the liabilities, equity, and assets into percentages of the group as a

    Doug and Jane want the financial statements to look their best for the investors and Board of Directors for the upcoming SEO. If they followed Simons suggestions, the financial statements would not look as attractive as they currently do which is not what they want as it is important that they receive the funds they need for the new investments. Without strong financial statements, they may not have the evidence they need to show that the company has turned around and increased the company's stock price. If they leave the financial statements as they are, the EPS would be $2.21 but if the changes were made based on Simon's suggestions, the EPS would decrease to $2.06. The net income would also decrease from $552,908 to $514,618.…

    2. The trend I noticed was that all three ratios: profit margin, return on assets, and return on equity had a good increase from 2001 to 2002. However, between 2002 and 2003 all three ratios take an even bigger down turn. This suggests to me that the common factor of these ratios, net income, has taken a sudden impact. Meanwhile, the one ratio that has held steady and even grew in 2003 was total asset turnover.…

    Home depot was drastically affected by the housing market crash and their numbers showed it; a few things can explain their numbers such as operating leverage, margin of safety, and cost behavior (Edmunds, Tsay, & Olds, 2011). The company announced that they suffered a 3% percent decrease in revenue in the first half of 2007 compared to the same time -frame in 2006; in addition to the 3% decreases in revenue they also suffered a 21% decline in profits. The 3% decline in revenue contributed to the decrease in profit in terms of operating leverage on profitability as revenues earned have to first cover that companies fixed cost and once the fixed costs are covered any additional revenue is pure profit. Comparing the numbers to the previous year the 3% decline in revenue lead to a 21% decrease in profit because they did not have as much revenue remaining after the fix costs were covered. Margin of safety is the difference in sales goal and breaking even; falling outside of the difference can result in a loss in profits.…

    The Dell Theory of conflict prevention introduces a massive industry of supply chains working together. Friedman’s theory starts off with introducing how the world works together and shows us how an entire global supply chain produces his Dell notebook. It is the fact that non-credible countries are getting involved in this industry of production that caused Friedman to propose his theory. The Dell Theory of Conflict Prevention argues that if two countries are working together there will not be a cause for war, but there are limitations to this statement. Limitations to the dell theory are mutant supply chains where destruction is unavoidable, and the fact that world conflict has turned more into wars between groups vs. nations rather than…

Looking at these numbers, there is no definite upward or downward trend. Specifically, revenue grew from 2013 to 2014 but then dropped each year after by a total of .42. The EBITDA trends do not seem to follow this path but rather steadily increase until a .1 decrease in 2016 (Coginent,…
