Non so se nel 2002 il fatturato di toyota è stato molto alto x cause eccezionali....fatto sta che da quanto ho sentito alla radio,nell'ultimo anno il fatturato è aumentato dell'8%...gli utili del 60%
Significa un incremento della redditività davvero notevole

I giapponesi domineranno il mondo

azz e pensare che non sono molto più alti di un puffo!

i jap so' forti!!!!  

ecco un teorema sui giapponesi (solo per matematici e/o fisici... )

per ogni teorema inventato, ci sarà un giapponese piccolo a piacere che sarà in grado di dimostrarlo prima di tutti!!!!  

Scusa, ma quello che conta sono gli utili sul fatturato. Se l'anno prima hanno guadagnato 1 yen, significa che ne hanno guadagnato 1,6. Cosa vuol dire? Guardiamo la percentuale sul fatturato...

Toyota Motor Corporation increased third quarter net income 59.7% to 286.4 billion yen, up from Y179.3 billion in the third quarter of 2002. Operating income increased 11.2% to Y401.6 billion and net revenues for the quarter were Y4.38 trillion, an increase of 8.2%.

TMC executive vice president Ryuji Araki said, ?Despite challenging foreign exchange rate conditions, Toyota achieved year-over-year increases in net revenues and income. Our continued growth is mainly due to significant cost reduction efforts as well as the active development of our overseas operations.?

Toyota said that home market demand for new models like the Prius hybrid and Sienta compact minivan remained strong despite difficult market conditions. But its third quarter market share (excluding minivehicles) was up just 0.8% to 44.4%.

Vehicle sales overseas increased 14.7% in the third quarter, to 1.14 million vehicles. North American sales continued to be strong, as new models like the Sienna minivan and redesigned Lexus RX330 SUV contributed to a 28,000-unit increase over Q3, fiscal year 2003.

European sales of 218,000 were up 28.4% in the quarter.

Sales in Asia and other regions improved by 23.8% to 367,000.

Global Toyota vehicle sales increased 10.1% or 156,000 to 1.7 million in the third quarter.

TMC has increased its sales forecast for the fiscal year by 80,000 units to 6.65 million vehicles, 540,000 more than in the previous fiscal year.

TMC is forecasting net sales of Y8.8 trillion, ordinary income of Y880 billion and net income of Y560 billion.

?As worldwide sales remain favourable and production lines continue to operate at full capacity globally, we hope to set new records in consolidated income this fiscal year,? Araki said

proviamo a ragionarci un attimo,forse mi sono lasciato prendere dalla foga dei numeri .

Mettiamo che nel 2002 abbia fatturato 100 e conseguito utili pari a 10.
Se nel 2003 il fatturato è cresciuto dell'8% vuol dire che ha fatturato 108.
Se gli utili nel 2003 sono cresciuti del 60% vuol dire che ha guadagnato 16.

Quindi nel 2002 gli utili rappresentavano il 10% del fatturato,nel 2003 gli utili hanno rappresentato quasi il 15% del fatturato,vuol dire che la redditività ha subito un discreto balzo, o ho sbagliato qualcosa?

Tutto sta al 2002, se gli utili rappresentavano lo 0,001 del fatturato, gli azionisti piangono anche se è raddoppiato. Se manca il dato assoluto, è difficile ragionare solo sulla percentuale di variazione. Per me balzo significa che l'utile, come spero, sia cospicuo. Ma detto così non lo posso sapere.

bha , toyota è uno dei più grossi colossi industriali al mondo . leggerne il bilancio e capirci cosa ci sia dietro mi sa che è una cosa più complessa che una semplice pubblicazione web. cmq bravi i jappo , anche se devono spiegarmi come hanno tagliato i costi così tanto.

proprio a questo stavo pensando...

Si deve tener conto che il bilancio lo fanno in Yen e le auto vengono pagate in dollari o ancora meglio Euro. Tenendo conto che lo Yen si è svalutato del 20% nei confronti dell'Euro nel solo 2003, si può cappire che la reditività per ogni auto venduta in Europa è cresciuta del di almeno il 20%  

anche questo è vero,anche se il + grosso mercato della toyota dovrebbero  essere sempre gli usa

Ed ecco spiegata la loro pubblicità: vi diamo la Yaris, Corolla etc al prezzo del 2002 o 2003! Solo di svalutazione della Yen guadagnano tantissimo  

bha , sicuramente la fortissima svalutazione dello yen nei confronti delle monete " forti " attuali ha influito molto , ma le materie prime le pagano in dollari anche loro........
