 This section shows the impacts of the variousequation terms on expected (PAR) profitability.
 The left side shows the impacts of the factors grouped into 3 categories: your competitive position; market environment; and cost and capital structure. If you have entered data for a single year the impacts are shown as a bar chart with categories having a negative impact shown in red and those having a positive impact on expected profitability in green: If you have entered data for more than 1 year, the barchart for each year can be displayed as well as a line chart showing the changes over time. To the right if the screen the detailed breakdown for each category is shown. If the category chart is the time series chart, the detail chart is also shown over time as below: If a single year is displayed for the category chart, then the detailed impacts for that year are shown to the right: In both cases the category to be displayed can be selected from the drop down menu above the chart. If the category chart is a bar chart you can click on the bar to display the details for that category.
-.Key relationships
-The bottom section shows two charts.
-To the left are charts detailing the relationship between key factors and profitability and growth from the PIMS research database with
-your data plotted in the same way as in the input sections.
-The chart to the right shows the distribution of that data in the PIMS database as a Box and whiskers chart, the end points represent the
-maximum & minimum and the box the middle 50% of businesses for that variable.

-PAR as a Service Guide
-The PIMS PAR ROS Model
-We use PAR ROS as a measure of profitability rather than ROI because a significant proportion of businesses these days have nearly zero
-or negative investment and therefore resource allocation is about people, R&D, marketing etc. not investment.
-In our equation we spilt the factors into three catagories, those affecting your competitive position, facotrs relating the the market
-environment you operate in (e.g. growth, innovation and customer characteristics), and those relating to the cost and capital structure
-of your business. This enables you to see not only the impact of individual variables on expected (PAR) profitability but also whether
-your overall Competitive position, Market environment and Cost and Capital Structure have a positive or negative impact on profitability
-relative to the PIMS average profitability.
-Many of the ratios used in the model relate to Cost added rather than ratios to sales or value added. This is because both Sales and Value
-Added include profit, so there is an inherent tautological negative profit impact. It is not a good idea for PAR profit to depend on actual
-profit!
-Definitions of the variables in the model are shown below:
