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) |
| = | (535.814 / 5038.009) | / | (395.196 / 4821.982) |
| = | 0.106354 | / | 0.081957 |
| | = | 1.2977 |
2. GMI = Gross Margin Index
Measured as the ratio of gross margin in year t-1 to gross margin in year t.
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) |
| = | (1872.229 / 4821.982) | / | (1983.069 / 5038.009) |
| = | 0.38827 | / | 0.393622 |
| | = | 0.9864 |

| = | Revenue_t | / | Revenue_t-1 |
| = | 5038.009 | / | 4821.982 |
| | = | 1.0448 |
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)) |
| = | (141.144 / (141.144 + 936.714)) | / | (149.818 / (149.818 + 1281.738)) |
| = | 0.130949 | / | 0.104654 |
