- Definition
- Shows the effective or accounting tax burden as a reference financial data point in the app. The right reading is to ask which statement it affects, whether it is recurring, whether it involves cash and how it changes relative to company size.
- Calculation
- Tax expense / income before tax.
- Uses
- Useful for building a first historical read and feeding tables, charts and filters. It is rarely conclusive alone: it can move through inflation, acquisitions, FX, reclassification or operating deterioration. Cross-check percentages of sales/assets, growth, margins, cash flow, debt and accounting notes.
