b) Some investors and analysts analyse the balance sheet and the income statement of a company with the common-size percentages, whereby each line item is set as a percent of one standard amount.  On the balance sheet, the standard amount is the value of the total assets.  It is against this that every other asset and liability line item is set as a percent.  On the income statement, the standard amount is the net sales.  All other items are set on this figure to calculate their percentages.
