Common Size Financial Statements

Home » CMA Glossary Term » Financial Statements and Reporting » Common Size Financial Statements

Common-size financial statements are financial reports that present all line items as a percentage of a base figure, such as total assets or sales. This method facilitates easy comparison across different periods or companies by standardizing financial data, making it easier to analyze trends and performance. Common-size financial statements are particularly useful in benchmarking and financial analysis.
