  1. FINANCIAL RATIO ANALYSIS - 2018 PEER AND NEXT-TIER GROUP COMPARISON

  2. VIABILITY RATIO Definition The Viability Ratio is calculated as Expendable Net Assets divided by Long-Term Debt. Notes and Caveats This ratio helps to answer the question: Does the institution have sufficient expendable net assets to cover its debt should we need to settle our obligations as of the balance sheet date?

  5. PRIMARY RESERVE RATIO Definition Primary Reserve Ratio is calculated as Expendable Net Assets divided by Total Expenses. Notes and Caveats This ratio helps to answer the question: How long can the institution operate using its expendable reserves without relying on additional net assets generated by operations?

PRIMARY RESERVE - PG Mercy College 1.91 St Francis College 1.06 Metropolitan College of New York 0.84 Vaughn College 0.75 Daemen College 0.54 Hilbert College 0.36 Medaille College 0.28 Cazenovia College 0.27 New York Institute of Technology 0.24 College of Mount Saint Vincent 0.22 Keuka College 0.16 Utica College 0.15 Boricua College Not Available

  8. RETURN ON NET ASSETS Definition Return on Net Assets is calculated as Change in Net Assets divided by Net Assets at the Beginning of Year. Notes and Caveats This ratio helps to answer the questions: How has the institution performed in terms of generating net assets (institutional equity) compared to its capital base? Are we increasing our net assets and thereby able to set aside financial resources to strengthen our future financial flexibility? Source IPEDS Finance Forms (FASB)

  11. NET INCOME RATIO Definition Net Income Ratio is calculated as Net Operating Income divided by the Total Unrestricted Operating Income. Notes and Caveats This ratio helps to answer the question: Did the institution live within its means (or not) during the year? Source Vaughn 2018 Audit

  12. NET INCOME Vaughn College -.02 Unable to calculate the net income for peers and next-tier institutions due to the difficulty in isolating components of the variable in the raw data (e.g. unrestricted operating revenue, total unrestricted revenues and gains, net assets released from restriction).

Converted to strength factors 3. Weighting of strength factors 4. Total to reach CFI Source Vaughn 2018 Audit
