Interpretation:

major part of balance sheet. The share capital remained same that means there is no fresh
issuance of bond. The borrowing of bank constitutes to liabilities which have been declining
rapidly every year that is a good sign that they have less liability to account for. The liability of
borrowing is 7% in 2018, 11% in 2017 and 14% in 2016. Decrease in borrowing results in
decrease in interest expenses. Deposits and other accounts constitute the largest portion of
liabilities overtime and in year 2018 their portion is 81%, in 2017 is 80% and in 2016 is 76% of
total liabilities. Deposits and other accounts increased from 2016 to 2018 continuously. There is
a slight difference in 2016 and 2018. The bank has not pay return or interest on this deposit. So
their larger portion is good for the bank.

On the total mark up interest earned, larger part is contributed by net markup interest expense
which is 57% in 2018. Profit after taxation is lower in 2018 as compared to previous year,
because of more expenses and payment of taxes by the bank in this year. According to the
vertical analysis of income statement the net markup / interest income has decreased again in
year 2018 the reason is the increase in markup / return / interest expenses this year.
