    Hi there,
    I’m seeing these terms being mentioned consistently on ACCA P3 exam papers. Please can you tell me what they are in layman’s terms with some examples?
    Many thanks

    Financial = usually normal accounting ratios. Eg current ratio, days of inventory.

    Non-financial = for example, number of faults in manufacturing, customer satisfaction, staff turnover, market share.
