Explanation:

a) Vertical analysis is a method of analyzing financial statements in which each line item is listed as a percentage of a base figure within the statement. Usually, the base figure used is the Sales Revenue for the Income Statement and Total Assets for the Balance Sheet.

b) The formulas for the Vertical Analysis are as follows:

Vertical Analysis formula = Individual Item / Base Amount * 100

i) Vertical Analysis Formula (Income Statement) = Income Statement Item / Total Sales * 100.

ii) Vertical Analysis Formula (Balance Sheet) = Balance Sheet Item / Total Assets (Liabilities) * 100.
