The Math / Science
Asset to Sales ratio is used to compare how much in assets a company has relative to the amount of revenues the company can generate using their assets. This therefore helps to determine a company's efficiency by giving the ratio of assets utilized to revenue generated. A higher ratio is a good indicator because it implies that the company is generating more revenues per dollar of assets. The asset to sales ratio is often used to compare different companies in the same sector.
EXAMPLE
In the fiscal year ended January 31, 2013, MetroDilux company had total revenues of $350 billion. The company’s total assets were $150 billion at the beginning of that fiscal year and $190 billion at fiscal year-end, for an average of $170 billion. MetroDilux’s asset turnover ratio was therefore 2.06 (i.e. $350 billion/ $170 billion)
