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)
	=	(916.928 / 4767.352)	/	(900.349 / 4543.001)
	=	0.192335	/	0.198184
	=	0.9705

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)
	=	(1343.902 / 4543.001)	/	(1448.364 / 4767.352)
	=	0.295818	/	0.303809
	=	0.9737

AQI	=	(1 - (CurrentAssets_t + PPE_t) / TotalAssets_t)	/	(1 - (CurrentAssets_t-1 + PPE_t-1) / TotalAssets_t-1)
	=	(1 - (3098.314 + 1174.776) / 5273.81)	/	(1 - (2732.343 + 1068.371) / 4712.161)
	=	0.189753	/	0.193424
	=	0.981

4. SGI = Sales Growth Index

Ratio of Revenue in year t to sales in year t-1.

Sales growth is not itself a measure of manipulation. However, growth companies are likely to find themselves under pressure to manipulate in order to keep up appearances.

	=	Revenue_t	/	Revenue_t-1
	=	4767.352	/	4543.001
	=	1.0494

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))
	=	(229.222 / (229.222 + 1068.371))	/	(255.214 / (255.214 + 1174.776))
	=	0.176652	/	0.178473

	=	((1145.119 + 1768.178) / 5273.81)	/	((1104.214 + 1376.217) / 4712.161)
