Sustaining profitability through efficient capital management The year 2010 marked an improvement in the economic sentiments of the country with the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growing by 7.2%. However, the average economic profit (EP) over invested capital (IC) or EP/IC of the Top 100 companies declined from 16.63% in 2010 to 14.47% in 2011.
continued to rise in the first half of 2004, though the quarterly pattern was mixed. The GDP increase in the first quarter was revised substantially to a 4.5% annual rate from 3.9% previously, while growth in the second quarter slowed to a 3.0% pace. Because of strong gains in the final 3 quarters of 2003 and in the first quarter of 2004, growth in the second quarter as measured from a year earlier was a sizable 4.8%.

For the past couple of years, the titles of the Tennessee Valley outlook articles have alluded to a progressively struggling economy, with slowing gross domestic product (GDP) growth. Prospects for 2009 are not any better. Although the fourth quarter drop was large, it was held up by inventory accumulation, which means that businesses will be cutting production even more than expected in the first quarter of 2009 to bring inventory levels in line. National GDP is now expected to decline by close to 5.0% in the first quarter instead of the previously expected 3.0%. The Tennessee Valley's economy is expected to generally follow that of the US, with the regional economy performing only slightly worse than the nation's, as it has been doing over the past couple of years. A decline in region...
