MERGENT INTELLECT bundle of 8 databases: KEY BUSINESS RATIOS

NUMERICAL RATIOS of industries from "Key Business Ratios" component of Mergent Intellect

Within Mergent Intellect, there is only 1 resource which provides INDUSTRY RATIOS that cover a mixture of Public & Private companies:

  • KEY BUSINESS RATIOS  - offers 5 years of numerical data through 14 business ratios, covering both private & public firms in the United States, clustered by 800 lines of business.  Within each year, ratios are separately presented by the cross points for Upper quartile, Median quartile and Lower quartile.  There is no mention within Key Business Ratios of any company names, and no textual analysis of this data.  The raw data underlying these reports are compiled anonymously from over one million corporate financial statements that are voluntarily provided to Dun & Bradstreet as part of their credit rating services.  Users can quickly export KBR's data as spreadsheets or you can print the results.
 

Within Mergent Intellect, there are many references to "SIC Codes" or "NAICS Codes" - -i f you are not familiar with those industry codes, then turn to my LibGuide on those code numbers = http://libguides.willamette.edu/sic-codes
