The tests that will be applied and will be undertaken on the Tenderer's last 2 years accounts (or more), or if the Tenderer has not been trading for 2 years then the financial accounts for the period that that Tenderer has been trading will be used for the analysis: • Analysis of gross profit margin* • Analysis of operating profit margin* • Change in turnover* • Net profit* • Net assets • No. of debtor's days • No. of creditor's days • Stock Turnover (as applicable - normally shown as a figure p.a.) • Liquidity (Acid Test - generally the higher the better, anything greater than 1 is good.
