Ranking
Return on sales of household electric appliances

Information agency Credinform represents the ranking of the largest Russian wholesalers of household electric appliances. Trading companies with the largest volume of annual revenue (TOP-10) were selected for the ranking, according to the data from the Statistical Register for the latest available periods (for 2016 - 2018). Then they were ranked by the return on sales ratio (Table 1). The analysis was made on the basis of the data of the Information and Analytical system Globas.

Return on sales (%) is calculated as the share of operating profit in the total sales of a company. The ratio reflects the efficiency of industrial and commercial activity of an enterprise and shows the share of company’s funds obtained as a result of sale of products, after covering its cost of sales, paying taxes and interest payments on loans.

The spread in values of the return on sales in companies of the same industry is determined by differences in competitive strategies and product lines.

The experts of the Information agency Credinform, taking into account the actual situation both in the economy as a whole and in the sectors, has developed and implemented in the Information and Analytical system Globas the calculation of practical values of financial ratios that can be recognized as normal for a particular industry. For wholesalers of household electric appliances the practical value of the return on sales ratio made from 3,96% in 2018.

For getting of the most comprehensive and fair picture of the financial standing of an enterprise it is necessary to pay attention to all combination of indicators and financial ratios.
