hello everyone hi welcome to the channel of WallStreetmojo watch the video
[15]
till the end also if you are new to this channel then you can subscribe us by
[19]
clicking the bell ican friends today we're going to learn a concept which is known
[23]
as the overhead ratio formula now over it is always been a burden on any
[28]
company because the cost will eat up their profits so who likes their the
[35]
profits to be eaten up by high or / increasing overhead in the company let's
[42]
understand this formula and we'll have a deep insight regarding all the aspects
[45]
that we need to consider in this particular formula the overhead ratio
[48]
formula is basically or all the operating expenses that you have divided
[52]
by the operating income plus the taxable net interest income okay no issues you
[58]
must have got a however here to worry we'll get into the utility of the same
[64]
the overhead ratio formula let me write for you overhead ratio formula is
[71]
specifically this this this ratio is specifically used by the banks in in
[76]
general yes absolutely well here we take the operating expense
[81]
into the into account the operating expense into account then and compare
[86]
the expenses with the total income that cannot be attributed directly to the
[91]
production of the goods and goods or service in total let's see the formula
[98]
let's jot down a formula over here for us over at ratio formula is basically
[104]
our operating income divided by the sorry this is the operating expense over
[112]
here and we'll have to write below that the operating income plus the taxable
[121]
net interest income now for this formula alternatively many argue you know that
[129]
the over it can be expressed as the proportion
[132]
I mean know between the operating expense and the revenue however the
[135]
proportion is called basically the operating expense ratio so and not an
[141]
overhead ratio they don't call it in as as the overhead ratio so the overhead
[148]
ratio example that we are going to consider to understand this particular
[151]
formula in really detail one let's take an simple example to calculate the
[155]
overhead cost let's say there is a company called kg Inc and it has some
[161]
following information which are as follow they have the detail of operating
[166]
income or the operating expense which is standing at let's say 23,000 then the
[176]
then they have the operating income which is standing at $1,15,000
[180]
and the another one is the taxable net interest income which is
[190]
standing at let's say $46,000 so these are a couple of numbers
[195]
that we have jotted down and we need to find out the ratio of kg Inc and let's
[202]
let's see we know that you know both the numerator and the denominator of the
[206]
ratio the operating expense which is standing at 23,000 the denominator would
[212]
be the sum of the total operating income in the taxable net interest income so
[217]
using the overhead formula we get some numbers as follow we'll try and put down
[223]
the numbers in this particular formula itself so that is equal to the operating
[227]
expense over here and in in here we we need to put things in bracket the
[234]
operating income plus the taxable net interest income
[238]
we have jotted down all the numbers finally what we have in our answer is AZ
[244]
is equal to 23,000 divided by 1,61,000 so we have 14%
[252]
14% or 14.29 or 14.30 as and
[256]
answer so we we inputted a data in our formula but we need to interpret this so
[261]
to interpret the ratio of KG Inc we need to look at the ratios of the
[266]
other restaurants who are in the similar food and providing the similar services
[272]
then and then only you'll be able to make a comparison it's called the comm
[276]
company based perishing right let's understand the explanation part of this
[283]
particular formula see in this ratio we have to consider two component the first
[291]
the first component over here is the operating alright the first component is
[300]
the operating expenses right so operating expenses are like you know the
[306]
day-to-day expenses if any that the company needs to run for the business
[312]
right for the for example I mean the utilities the machinery maintenance
[317]
officer and professional fees insurance etc the operating expenses the
[322]
second the second most important part of the component of the overhead ratio is a
[328]
little bit a tricky one we'll take the operating income over here and also the
[336]
taxable net income the taxable net interest income right so these are the
[347]
two common components see when we deduct the operating expenses from the gross
[352]
profit less the operating expenses we get the operating income isn't it quite
[361]
clear this is how we find so to get an in the second to get the net interest
[366]
income we need to look at the difference between how much a company interest
[371]
received basically how much the company receives the interest less how much
[377]
interest it pays right so the net interest income is the common measure
[382]
for banks which we discussed at the very inception in but we can calculate the
[388]
same for the companies also so we'll de da will will add the operating income
[393]
and the taxable and interest income to get basically the denominator side
[399]
now let's understand the use of this particular formula what is the use see
[405]
overhead formula is a significant measure for a company for any company
[409]
because if it is lower but better would be the performance but the performance
[416]
of the company on the other hand if it this ratio is higher the company isn't
[424]
utilizing its a resource prudently I would say the resources are
[430]
not utilized prudently right every company every company should try to
[440]
lower down the ratio as much as it can see there are two portion of the
[447]
operating expense that a company can look at the first component of the
[453]
operating expense is the expense that can be curved so try and reduce the
[458]
expenses as much as possible in this case the company should try to reduce
[464]
the component this component as much as they can because that is going to be a
[469]
hedge against the second component the second component of the operating
[474]
expense can be removed completely I mean the company should take steps to pare
[479]
down the second component and to reduce this particular ratio however you know
[487]
reducing this the ratio shouldn't be shouldn't affect the company's
[491]
performance I mean too much reduction in this in this ready in this ratio in the
[497]
operating expense may affect the company's company negatively the company
[501]
should try to maintain a balance and and reduce only that much which does not
[507]
reduce the efficiency of the company now this is of a calculator you know we can
[511]
put down some numbers and really come up with some good results out of the same
[515]
let's say we take our operating expense as $50,000 the operating income which is
[520]
standing at let's say 1 lakh dollars and the total net interest income let's say
[527]
it is standing at $10,000 so the overhead ratio formula is 25%
[533]
so 50,000 divided by 1,10 then now keeping this as constant if you
[540]
increase this to 60,000 your ratio is going to increase and higher the ratio
[544]
is not good so what you need to do is that you need to reduce this to make
[549]
your ratio to fall down to 15% so this is how we can put down some good numbers
[553]
and come up with some really good results so that's it for this particular
[558]
