History More than a century ago, 30-year-old Dr. Wallace C. Abbott, a practicing physician and drug store proprietor, founded the Abbott Alkaloidal Company. Using the active - or alkaloid - part of a medicinal plant, he formed tiny pills, called “dosimetric granules,” which provided a more accurate and effective dosing for his patients than other treatments available at the time. The demand for these accurate granules soon far exceeded the needs of his own practice and from these modest origins was born Abbott, one of the world’s most broad-based health care companies and a leader in the discovery, development and manufacture of products that span the continuum of care. Abbott trademarks and products in-licensed by Abbott are shown in italics.

Founding and Modern Science: 1888 – 1910 From the very beginning, Dr. Abbott and the company’s early founders championed scientific investigation to benefit patients. With alkaloidal medicine, Abbott’s founders were pioneers in the creation of the scientific practice of pharmacy, devising a new and better way to deliver medicine granules to improve the quality of care for patients. Abbott was an early innovator in physician education as well, supporting a sizable publishing operation.

Growth and Service: 1916 - 1938 After the first years of Abbott's success based primarily on alkaloidal medicines, Dr. Alfred S. Burdick, a young medical professor and writer hired in 1904, convinced Dr. Abbott that the future would take a different direction. With the world standing on the threshold of rapid progress in chemistry, Abbott shifted its research focus from alkaloids to synthetic (chemical) medicines, an area positioned for tremendous growth. In 1915, the name of the company changed to reflect the commitment to new areas of research, beyond alkaloids. The newly renamed Abbott Laboratories entered a period of growth characterized by strategic acquisitions and constant scientific pursuit.

LIQUIDITY RATIOS The liquidity of a firm is measured by its ability to satisfy its short term obligation as they come due. Liquidity refers to the solvency of the firm’s overall financial position (the ease with which it can pay its bills). The following are liquidity ratios: 1. Current Ratio 2. Quick (Asset Test) Ratio 3. Absolute Quick Ratio

1. Current ratio: Current ratio measures the firm’s ability to meet its short terms obligations. It is expressed as follows. Current Ratio

=

current assets / current liabilities

Comments on Liquidity Ratios Liquidity Ratios are viewed as best leading indicators of cash flow problems. The two basic measures of liquidity are the current ratio and quick ratio. The common precursor to financial distress and bankruptcy is low or declining liquidity.

1. Current Ratio:As the current ratio of the firm is still favorable but it’s declining steadily which is the precursor of financial distress and bankruptcy. The higher the current ratio, the more liquid the firm is considered to be. A current ratio of 2.0 is considered acceptable. The speed with which the ratio is decreasing, it’s showing the deteriorating position because it’s manufacturing firm.

2. Quick (acid test) Ratio:It’s similar to the current ratio except that it excludes inventory, which is generally least liquid current asset. The generally low liquidity results from two primary factors: (1) many types of inventory cannot be easily sold, (2) its typically sold on credit. The ratio of 1.0 is acceptable. It provides a better measure if inventory cannot be converted easily into cash. This firm’s ratio is acceptable but it’s decreasing which is showing that the firm is going towards deterioration. It may be due to increase in the inventory level in 2007.

3. Absolute Quick Ratio:The firm’s absolute quick ratio is also favorable like other ratios. It’s mean the firm has adequate cash and bank balances which are highly liquid to meet the short term obligations. But it’s deteriorating like other ratios in 2007. It’s mean the firm’s cash flows is decreasing in 2007. It may be due to increase in credit sales or increased collection period.

Comments on Activity Ratios Activity ratios measure the speed with which various accounts are converted into sales or cash inflows or outflows.

1. Inventory turnover ratio of Abbott laboratories:INVENTORY TURNOVER commonly measures the activity, or liquidity, of a firm’s inventory. In 2006 the inventory turnover ratio of Abbot Laboratories was 2.74 and in 2007 was 2.82. Its mean that the inventory turnover ratio of Abbott laboratories is unfavorable in 2007 as compared to 2006 because now the speed of inventory in which it ends is lower as compared to 2006 which is unfavorable for the company. It must be meaningful only if the inventory turnover ratio of Abbott laboratories is lower in 2007 as compared to 2006. But the situation is reverse here in this period and the inventory turnover ratio is unfavorable for the firm. Inventory turnover can easily convertible in into an average age of inventory by dividing it into 360___the assumed number of days in a year.

2. Average collection period of Abbott laboratories:THE average collection period is useful in evaluating credit and collection policies. IT means that in how much days the company can recover its money from the debtors. Its shows the strong position of the firm in the market because the more the speed of recovering the debts the more the efficiency of the firm. IN 2006 the average collection period of Abbott laboratories was 12.76 days and in 2007 it was 7.08 days its means that now the efficiency of the company is increased as compared to the last year (2006). NOW in 2007 the company can recover it amounts from the debtors in 7.08 days which shows the favorable position of the company.

3. Average payment period of Abbott laboratories:IT means the average amount of time needed to pay accounts payable during a year. The average payment period of Abbott laboratories in 2006 was 14.83 days and in 2007 was 19.37 days. This shows that the position of the firm in 2007 was favorable because if we make payment late then we have a chance to invest this cash in Marketable Securities or Blue Chips and can generate more cash. In 2006 we have no chance to avail this opportunity but in 2007 we can invest it. SO the average payment period is favorable in 2007 as compared to 2006.

UNIVERSITY OF THE PUNJAB (Gujranwala Campus) 44

MC-506

4. Average collection period v/s average payment period:The average collection period must be lesser than the average payment period. Suppose: if average collection period is 50 days then payment period must be more than 50 days in this situation we can pay the dues easily. But if the collection period is 50 days and the payment period is 40 days then it is not suitable for the company because we have no money at the end of 40 days. In case of Abbott laboratories the situation is favorable in 2007 because we recover our debts in 7.08 days and our payment period is 19.37 days its means we have the opportunity to invest the money in short term securities.

5. Total assets turnover ratio of Abbott laboratories:The total asset turnover indicates the efficiency with which the firm uses its assets to generate sales. Generally the higher a firm's total asset turnover, the more efficiently its assets have been used. This measure is probably of greatest interest to management, because it indicates whether the firm's operations have been financially efficient. The total asset turnover ratio of the Abbott laboratories in 2006 was 1.17 and in 2007 was 1.39 which shows that total assets of the firms are efficiently used in 2007 as compared to 2006.

In 2006 the share of debt was 19% in the total assets of the company and in 2007 this share increased up to 21%.its mean the share of debts is increasing in total assets which is showing the company is going towards deterioration.

2. DEBT TO EQUITY RATIO OF ABBOTT LABORATARIES:Another version of debt-equity ratio (known as external-internal equity ratio) is where relationship is established between borrowed funds and owner’s equality. In 2006 the debt to equity ratio of Abbott laboratories was 0.19 and in 2007 was 0.27. Its means that debts are increasing which is not suitable for the company. By increase in the debts the firm has to pay additional charges which will decrease the return for the investors.

Comments It merges the income statements and balance sheet into two summary measures of profitability: ROA & ROE

Dupont Formula:The Dupont Formula enables the firm to break down its return into profit—on— sale and efficiency—of—asset—Use components. Typically a firm with lower net profit margin has a high total asset turnover which results in reasonably good return on total assets. Often the opposite situation exits. In 2006, net profit margin is 17% and efficiency of assets use in 1.17 and in 2007 net profit margin increases 18.48% & efficiency of assets use is 1.14. as profit rate increases and efficiency decreases but it results in increased ROA in 2007. the firm should also increased its efficiency with increased profit margin for further increase in ROA.

Modified Dupont Formula:Use of the financial leverages multiplier to covert the ROA into the ROE to reflect the impact of financial leverage on owner’s return. The total return to owner can be analyzed in these three imports dimensions.
