嗨,爱思考的PZer你好:


B是减少,错在是asset turnover ,应该是receivable turnover变小


这是原版书的一个实证研究结论,与premature revenue直接相关的特征是DSO变高和receivable turnover变低,


和asset turnover无明显关系。我们也可以这么理解,其他条件不变,AR上升会导致asset turnover上升,


但是提前确认收入说明revenue也增加了,receivable turnover通常是一个大于1的数,分子分母增加相同金额,receivable turnover会变小。


而asset turnover的大小不一定,分子分母同时变大相同金额,ratio最终的变化方向无法确定。

嗨,努力学习的PZer你好:


修正一下,这道题考的其实是原版书的一个结论:

DSO增加和AR turnover降低其实是一个结论,因为DSO就等于365除以AR turnover,前者是周转天数,后者是周转次数,周转天数多和周转次数少,是等效的。


DSO代表的是应收账款周转天数,这个数字越大, 说明应收账款周转越慢,有可能是因为应收账款占收入的比重增加导致的。


我们从AR turnover的角度来理解一下:正常情况,应收账款占收入的比重应该是比较稳定的,比如每100块收入里面可能有20块应收。


但是如果公司有提前确认收入的情况,应收账款这个占比就会增加,因为提前确认的收入100%都是应收,假设提前确认了100块收入,正常收入还是100,那么应收账款就变成了120,其中20块是正常应收,100块是提前确认收入带来的,


我们能看出来,这种情况下的应收账款周转速度就会变慢:原来是100/20=5,现在是200/120=1.67。


我们可以得到一个warning sign:应收账款周转率变慢可能是提前确认收入导致的。又因为应收账款周转率变慢和DSO增加是等效的,我们又可以得出:AR turnover降低可能有提前确认收入的情况。


所以B选项错在它说的是Asset turnover减少,应该是account receivable  turnover降低
