1. DSRI = Days Sales in Receivables Index
Measured as the ratio of Revenue in Total Receivables in year t to year t-1.
A large increase in DSR could be indicative of revenue inflation.
| DSRI | = | (Receivables_t / Revenue_t) | / | (Receivables_t-1 / Revenue_t-1) |
| = | (651 / 9664) | / | (1178 / 17206) |
| = | 0.067363 | / | 0.068464 |
| | = | 0.9839 |
2. GMI = Gross Margin Index

Gross margin has deteriorated when this index is above 1. A firm with poorer prospects is more likely to manipulate earnings.
| GMI | = | GrossMargin_t-1 | / | GrossMargin_t |
| = | (GrossProfit_t-1 / Revenue_t-1) | / | (GrossProfit_t / Revenue_t) |
| = | (4472 / 17206) | / | (6249 / 9664) |
| = | 0.259909 | / | 0.646627 |

| = | (1 - (1581 + 16293) / 18102) | / | (1 - (2620 + 16814) / 19633) |

| | = | 0.5617 |
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)) |
| = | (634 / (634 + 16814)) | / | (672 / (672 + 16293)) |
| = | 0.036337 | / | 0.039611 |
