Information from a corporate tax return is entered into IRS-CALC and all ratios are calculated and displayed. An industry is selected and the industry ratios are displayed side by side with the user's ratios for comparison. For each industry, three complete sets of 75 ratios are presented. One set reports for all firms within the industry, a second set for only profitable companies and a third set for companies with losses. The format of the report allows comparisons so that ratios which distinguish profitable firms are immediately visible, a real aid to improving financial management.
The extensive introduction, as well as notes on the Excel sheet, contains definitions along with an explanation of how each ratio is calculated and interpreted. Included are key benchmarks of financial performance: Turnover Ratios, such as inventory sales turns and inventory cost turns, Expense Percentages, Employment Percentages, such as officer compensation to PBIT, Profitability Percentages, such as gross, operating and net margin, Liquidity Ratios, such as days receivable and days payable and many more.
The newly available 2026 edition of the report contains information from corporate tax returns filed with the IRS for the 2022 fiscal year. One major accounting firm has used IRS Corporate Financial Ratios to develop a report to accompany delivery of the corporate tax return, which both enhances service to existing clients and can serve as the basis for additional assignments. Even the IRS, as well as some state agencies, have used it for tax and compensation audits.
As a reliable information source, the study can be used in many ways from gathering competitive intelligence to evaluating tax returns before filing. It is an ideal reference for CPAs, controllers, bankers, CFOs, tax lawyers, financial analysts, investment advisors and corporate planners.
