Payroll costs increase as a % of revenue or in line with revenue usually

likesmart

1) Payroll would increase as a % of revenue increase. If revenue was projected to increase 10%, companies typically support that by increasing headcount. Thats the logic. SG&A is driven by revenue. You can use historical trends as an assumption tracking payroll as a % of revenue, it’s not a straight 1:1 correlation.
2) In practice, growth hires/contingent comp are the primary drivers why payroll would significantly change. This is tied to revenue, so looking at trend based percentages is the most efficient way of explaining/correlating the story. In a scenario that this conceptual logic doesn’t match up (significant movements in payroll without a correlation in revenue), then you can dig into the details and get real nitty gritty with it in true FDD fashion to explain the unusual items.

This is the level of insight one can expect from a diligence report from GT

I had cleared all the rounds in S&P and had salary discussion 1.5 month back. The HR is always saying the management is on leave and will soon get the approval and release offer. Today she shas asked for one more week to release the offer. Should I wait for it or move on. Are they waiting for some other candidate to join before rejecting me at last moment. Only 10 days of my LWD are left.

Hey everyone, I’m looking for some advice with regards to my next career step. Currently in audit and I have opportunities to go for a Valuations role or an FDD role (both big 4).

Hey fishes,

Brillio gave some joining bonus and if we are leaving within an year we need to pay it back.
So does it mean I need to put papers after one year or is that okay to put papers after 9 months, so serving 3 months notice makes it one year.
Please let me know if anyone had an idea about this.
