Formulas Used to Calculate Resource Performance

  1. Net Farm Income = Total Farm Revenue - Total Farm Expenses. It is the Return to the Unpaid Family Labour, Operators Labour and Management, and Equity Capital Invested.
  2. Owner's Equity = Total Farm Assets - Total Liabilities
  3. % equity = (Equity ÷ Total Farm Assets) x 100
  4. Return on Owner's Equity and Unpaid Labour = (Net Farm Income ÷ Owner's Equity) x 100
  5. Return on Owner's Assets and Unpaid Labour = ((Net Farm Income + Interest Paid) ÷ Total Farm Assets) x 100
  6. Return on Investment ($36,000/Person) = ((Net Farm Income + Int Pd + Wages & Salaries - ($36,000 x Person Equiv)) ÷ Total Farm Assets) x 100
  7. Return to Owner's Labour (5% Investment Rate) = Net Farm Income + Interest Paid - (.05 x Total Farm Assets)
  8. Value of Farm Production = Total Farm Revenue - (Lvstk + Feed Purchased)
  9. Cost/$1.00 (VFP) = (Total Expenses - Depreciation - Feed Purchased - Livestock Purchased) ÷ Value of Farm Production
  10. Asset Turnover = Total Farm Revenue ÷ Total Farm Assets
  11. Cost Control = (Net Farm Income ÷ Total Farm Revenue) x 100
  12. Working Capital = Current Assets - Current Liabilities
  13. Current Ratio = (Current Assets ÷ Current Liabilities) : 1
  14. Debt Structure = (Current Liabilities ÷ Total Liabilities) x 100
  15. Debt to Asset Ratio = (Total Liabilities ÷ Total Farm Assets) : 1
  16. Debt to Equity Ratio = (Total Liabilities ÷ Owners Equity) : 1
