Segment Analysis
Business can be classified by regions, products or services, types of customers and more; each classification is treated as one segment of the business. Revenues earn from different segments individually, are called segment revenue. Segment revenues are determined from the invoiced data entered in the accounting system. Segment analysis is done to analyze the contribution of different segments to the total operating performance of the company. It is done with the help of horizontal and vertical comparisons.
