Dealer Financial
Ratio Survey
Distribution Statistical Series

The 1999 Dealer Financial Ratio Survey will allow you to compare your dealership¹s operating ratios, gross profit, margins, net operating profits and a wide range of other data to industry averages and other dealers your size. All information will be held in the strictest confidence by NAGASA certified public accountants, Donlin & Stephens, P.S.C. Your information will not be seen by NAGASA headquarters staff, elected representatives, or others in the industry.

Instructions

  1. Use the most recent year-end financial statement, not an interim one.
  2. Please provide the information in whole dollars.
  3. Items 7a through 7g request a breakdown of sales by category. If you do not have that information, you could estimate each amount or provide only total sales on line 7h labeled “Total Sales (a thru g).”
  4. Even though officers (owners) may perform sales, service and other duties, please list their full salary(ies) on line 7u. Do not allocate their salary to each salary caption.
  5. Captions marked “all other categories” should include sales or other expenses not requested in a separate caption.
  6. Item 7gg requests prompt payment discounts and represents the saving or discount received for meeting a vendor’s payment terms, e.g., 2% 10 days net 30 days.
  7. Please make sure math is correct; please add and subtract all items properly.
  8. Remember “Total Assets” (5j) should equal “Total Liabilities and Net Worth” (6g).

Complete all information below and email no later than April 30, 1999:
