INTRODUCTION FINANCIAL ANALSIS +inancial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and wea(nesses of the firm and establishing relationship between the items of the balance sheet and profit , loss account. +inancial ratio analysis is the calculation and comparison of ratios) which are derived from the information in a company=s financial statements. The level and historical trends of these ratios can be used to ma(e inferences 6
about a company=s financial condition) its operations and attractiveness as an investment. The information in the statements is used by Trade creditors) to identify the firm=s ability to meet their claims i.e. li-uidity position of the company. !nvestors) to (now about the present and future profitability of the company and its financial structure. Management) in every aspect of the financial analysis. !t is the responsibility of the management to maintain sound financial condition in the company. RATIO ANALSIS The term >Ratio? refers to the numerical and -uantitative relationship between two items or variables. This relationship can be e*posed as Percentages +ractions Proportion of numbers Ratio analysis is defined as the systematic use of the ratio to interpret the financial statements. $o that the strengths and wea(nesses of a firm) as well as its historical performance and current financial condition can be determined. Ratio reflects a -uantitative relationship helps to form a -uantitative judgment. STEPS IN RATIO ANALSIS The first tas( of the financial analysis is to select the information relevant to the decision under consideration from the statements and calculates appropriate ratios. 8
To compare the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm relating to the pas9t or with the industry ratios. !t facilitates in assessing success or failure of the firm. Third step is to interpretation) drawing of inferences and report writing conclusions are drawn after comparison in the shape of report or recommended courses of action. BASIS OR STANDARDS OF CO!PARISON Ratios are relative figures reflecting the relation between variables. They enable analyst to draw conclusions regarding financial operations. They use of ratios as a tool of financial analysis involves the comparison with related facts. This is the basis of ratio analysis. The basis of ratio analysis is of four types. Past ratios) calculated from past financial statements of the firm. &ompetitor=s ratio) of the some most progressive and successful competitor firm at the same point of time. !ndustry ratio) the industry ratios to which the firm belongs to Projected ratios) ratios of the future developed from the projected or pro forma financial statements NATURE OF RATIO ANALSIS Ratio analysis is a techni-ue of analysis and interpretation of financial statements. !t is the process of establishing and interpreting various ratios for helping in ma(ing certain decisions. !t is only a means of understanding of financial strengths and wea(nesses of a firm. There are a number of ratios which can be calculated from the information given in the financial statements) but the analyst has to select the appropriate data 9
and calculate only a few appropriate ratios. The following are the four steps involved in the ratio analysis. $election of relevant data from the financial statements depending upon the objective of the analysis. &alculation of appropriate ratios from the above data. &omparison of the calculated ratios with the ratios of the same firm in the past) or the ratios developed from projected financial statements or the ratios of some other firms or the comparison with ratios of the industry to which the firm belongs. INTERPRETATION OF T"E RATIOS The interpretation of ratios is an important factor. The inherent limitations of ratio analysis should be (ept in mind while interpreting them. The impact of factors such as price level changes) change in accounting policies) window dressing etc.) should also be (ept in mind when attempting to interpret ratios. The interpretation of ratios can be made in the following ways. $ingle absolute ratio 7roup of ratios istorical comparison Projected ratios !nter@firm comparison GUIDELINES OR PRECAUTIONS FOR USE OF RATIOS :

There are different parties interested in the ratio analysis for (nowing the financial position of a firm for different purposes. %arious accounting ratios can be classified as followsB .. Traditional &lassification 3. +unctional &lassification 2. $ignificance ratios #. T$aditional Classi%ication !t includes the following. Balance sheet CorD position statement ratioB They deal with the relationship between two balance sheet items) e.g. the ratio of current assets to current liabilities etc.) both the items must) however) pertain to the same balance sheet. <
Profit , loss account CorD revenue statement ratiosB These ratios deal with the relationship between two profit , loss account items) e.g. the ratio of gross profit to sales etc.) &omposite CorD inter statement ratiosB These ratios e*hibit the relation between a profit , loss account or income statement item and a balance sheet items) e.g. stoc( turnover ratio) or the ratio of total assets to sales. &. Functional Classi%ication These include li-uidity ratios) long term solvency and leverage ratios) activity ratios and profitability ratios. '. Si(ni%icanc) $atios $ome ratios are important than others and the firm may classify them as primary and secondary ratios. The primary ratio is one) which is of the prime importance to a concern. The other ratios that support the primary ratio are called secondary ratios. IN T"E *IE+ OF FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION T"E RATIOS ARE .. #i-uidity ratio 3. #everage ratio 2. Activity ratio 6. Profitability ratio #. LI,UIDIT RATIOS #i-uidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as , when there becomes due. The short term obligations of a firm ./
can be met only when there are sufficient li-uid assets. The short term obligations are met by realiEing amounts from current) floating CorD circulating assets The current assets should either be calculated li-uid CorD near li-uidity. They should be convertible into cash for paying obligations of short term nature. The sufficiency CorD insufficiency of current assets should be assessed by comparing them with short@term current liabilities. !f current assets can pay off current liabilities) then li-uidity position will be satisfactory. To measure the li-uidity of a firm the following ratios can be calculated &urrent ratio Auic( CorD Acid@test CorD #i-uid ratio Absolute li-uid ratio CorD &ash position ratio -a. CURRENT RATIO/ &urrent ratio may be defined as the relationship between current assets and current liabilities.

CALCULATION = INTERPRETATION OF RATIOS #. CURRENT RATIO/ !)anin(/ &urrent ratio may be defined as the relationship between current assets and current liabilities. This ratio is also (nown as wor(ing capital ratio) is measure of general li-uidity and mostly used to ma(e the analysis of a short@term financial position or li-uidity of a firm.

The management has ta(en a great effort in maintaining high -uic( assets as compared to last year. '. STOC4 TURN O*ER OR IN*ENTOR TURN O*ER RATIO / !)anin( / "very firm has to maintain a certain amount of inventory of finished goods so as to meet the re-uirement of business. But the level of inventory should neither be too high nor too low. Because it is harmful to hold more inventory as amount of capital is bloc(ed in it and some cost is involved in it. !nventory turn over ratio measure the speed with which stoc( is converted into sales. 1sually high inventory ratio indicates an efficient management of inventory because more fre-uently stoc(s are sold O the lesser amount of money is re-uired to finance the inventory. Fhere as low inventory turn over ratio indicates the inefficient management of inventory. A low inventory turn over implies over investment in inventories. !nventory turn over ratio H &ost of good sold Average inventory &ost of goods sold H 'pening $toc(L Purchase L Direct "*penses @ &losing $toc( Average inventory H 'pening stoc( L &losing stoc( Calculation / 4ear 3/./ 3//< &'7$ 8:.6:.:3 8/:2;.29 Avg. 93<6.388 6<<6..; 62

Reduction of !nventory turn over ratio in 3/./ may be due to increase in cost of goods sold with increase in sales as compared to last year or due to non availability of opening balance of inventory in the year 3//<. 66
>. DEBTOR TURN O*ER RATIO/ !)anin( / A concern may sell goods on cash as well as on credit. The volume of sales can be increased by adopting liberal credit policy. But liberal credit policy may result in tying up substantial funds of a firm in form of trade debtors. Trade debtors are e*pected to be converted into cash within short period and are included in current assets. Debtors velocity indicates the number of times the debtors are turned over during a year. igher the value of debtor turnover the more efficient is the management of debtorsIsales and vice versa. Debtor turnover ratio H 0et credit sales Average debtors Average debtors H 'pening Debtor L closing Debtor 3 Calculation /

Int)$3$)tation/ Debtor turn over ratio in the year 3//< is e*tremely high i.e 896 times . The ratio is too high because the entire sale done by the project is according to the agreement with customer. The debtor shown on the closing day of financial year is not received by the customer because customer has time to pay his liability in near future. $o the project is not worried about the Bad debts. 69
E. GROSS PROFIT RATIO/ !)anin( / The gross profit ratio indicates the e*tent to which selling prices of goods per unit may decline without resulting in losses on operations of a firm. !t reflects the efficiency with which a firm produces its products. 7ross profit should be ade-uate to cover the operating e*penses and to provide for fi*ed charges) dividends and accumulation of reserves. 7ross profit ratio H 7ross profit N .// 0et $ales 7ross Profit H $ales@ &ost of goods sold Calculation / 4ear 3/./ 3//< 7ross profit :;/;:.;: :3<;/.:< 0et sales .28328.8< .32:.<..8 Ratio 8; G 8< G 6:

The project gross profit ratio has decreased by .G due to increase in direct e*penses. The company has sound position to meet its non@operating e*penses and also enough capable to pay ta*es and royalty to the government. 6;
F. OPERATING RATIO/ !)anin( / 'perating ratio establishes the relationship between cost of goods sold and other operating e*penses on the one hand and sales on the other hand. 'perating ratio indicates the percentage of net sales that is consumed by operating cost. igher the operating ratio is less favourable for the company because it would have small margin to cover interest) income ta* ) dividend and reserve.

The net profit of the project reveals sound business of the project and strong financial position. 83
H. +OR4ING CAPITAL TURNO*ER RATIO/ !)anin(/ For(ing capital turnover ratio indicates the velocity of the utiliEation of net wor(ing capital. This ratio indicates the number of times the wor(ing capital is turned over in the course of a year. This ratio measures the efficiency with which the wor(ing capital is being used by a firm. A higher ratio indicates efficient utiliEation of wor(ing and low ratio indicates otherwise. But a very high wor(ing capital turnover ratio is not a good situation for any firm and must be ta(en while interpreting the ratio.

This ratio is very helpful to forecast the wor(ing capital re-uirement on the basis of sales. 86
J. CREDITOR TURNO*ER RATIO/ !)anin(/ !n the course of business operations) a firm has to ma(e credit purchases and incur short@term liabilities. A supplier of goods i.e) creditors is always interested to (now how much time the firm is li(ely to ta(e in repaying its trade creditors. !t shows the speed at which payments are made to the supplier for purchase made from them. !t is a relation between net credit purchase and average creditors. igher creditor turnover ratio or lower credit period enjoyed signifies that the creditors are being paid promptly. &reditors turnover ratio H 0et &redit Purchases Average creditors Average creditors H opening creditors L closing creditors 3 Calculation / 4"AR 3/./ 3//< &R"D!T P1R&A$" 2;2/..:: 2<.83..3 A%7. &R"D!T'R$ 339<..83 3.9;9./: RAT!' ..9< times ..;.times &redit purchase include consumption of stores and spares) social overhead) power , fuel) repairs, contractual e*penses. 88
Int)$3$)tation / A high creditors turnover ratio indicates that creditors not paid in time while a low ratio gives an idea that the business is not ta(ing full advantages of credit period allowed by the creditors. $ince creditors turnover ratio has decreased from ..;. times to ..9< times which represents that creditors are paid in time. !t=s a good sign for the company. 89
