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) |
| = | (58.407 / 59.131) | / | (26.383 / 33.7) |
| = | 0.987756 | / | 0.782878 |
| | = | 1.2617 |
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) |
| = | (33.7 / 33.7) | / | (59.131 / 59.131) |
| = | 1 | / | 1 |
| | = | 1 |

| DEPI | = | (Depreciation_t-1 / (Depreciaton_t-1 + PPE_t-1)) | / | (Depreciation_t / (Depreciaton_t + PPE_t)) |
| = | (0.088 / (0.088 + 0.276)) | / | (0.142 / (0.142 + 0.191)) |
| = | 0.241758 | / | 0.426426 |
