=(24.215 / 96.886) / (22.686 / 23.061)
=0.249933 / 0.983739

=Revenue_t / Revenue_t-1
=96.886 / 23.061
=4.2013

5. DEPI = Depreciation Index

Measured as the ratio of the rate of Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization in year t-1 to the corresponding rate in year t.

DEPI greater than 1 indicates that assets are being depreciated at a slower rate. This suggests that the firm might be revising useful asset life assumptions upwards, or adopting a new method that is income friendly.

DEPI=(Depreciation_t-1 / (Depreciaton_t-1 + PPE_t-1)) / (Depreciation_t / (Depreciaton_t + PPE_t))
=(2.752 / (2.752 + 55.597)) / (4.271 / (4.271 + 35.462))
=0.047164 / 0.107493
=0.4388

Note: If the Depreciation, Depletion and Amortization data is not available, we assume that the depreciation rate is constant and set the Depreciation Index to 1.

The ratio of Selling, General, & Admin. Expense(SGA) to Sales in year t relative to year t-1.

SGA expenses index > 1 means that the company is becoming less efficient in generate sales.

=(29.396 / 96.886) / (30.326 / 23.061)
=0.303408 / 1.315034
=0.2307

=((27.868 + 27.616) / 135.187) / ((37.588 + 31.249) / 181.768)
=0.410424 / 0.378708
=1.0837
