The Inventory in Salur Jute Mill are consisting of finished goods, stocks of raw
materials, stock of stores and spares and working progress. The finished goods produced at
various by production department are sold by marketing departments and accounted by sales
Accounting section of Finance Department. As regarding raw materials concerned, the Raw
Material Department produce the materials through Materials Management Department
(hereafter referred as MM Dept.) for use by production departments and are accounted by
Raw Material Accounts Section of Finance Department. As the present study is restricted to
inventory of stores and spares, the procedure for procurement, receipt, handling and
accounting of stores and spares is detailed below.
Procurement:
The materials in respect of stores and spares, minor raw materials, etc. are received
by CSD from suppliers. SD stores them and issues for consumption. SD also identifies the
surplus, scrap materials, and disposes them. For these activities, SD follows detailed
procedure through its sections consisting of collection cell, receipt stores, Discrepancy
Receipt Stores, Claims cell, Dispatch Cell, Disposal Stores etc. The various functions and
procedure followed by CSD is given hereunder.
Inventory management is primarily about specifying the shape and percentage of
stocked goods. It is required at different locations within a facility or within many locations
of a supply network to proceed the regular and planned course of production and stock of
materials.
The scope of inventory management concerns the fine lines between
replenishment lead-time, carrying costs of inventory, asset management, inventory
forecasting, inventory valuation, inventory visibility, future inventory price forecasting,
physical inventory, available physical space for inventory, quality management,
replenishment, returns and defective goods and demand forecasting. Balancing these
competing requirements leads to optimal inventory levels, which is an on-going process as
the business needs shift and react to the wider environment.
Inventory management involves a retailer seeking to acquire and maintain a
proper merchandise assortment while ordering, shipping, handling, and related costs are kept
in check. It also involves systems and processes that identify inventory requirements, set
targets, provide replenishment techniques, report actual and projected inventory status and
handles all functions related to the tracking and management of material. This would include
the monitoring of material moved into and out of stockroom locations and the reconciling of
the inventory balances. Also may include ABC analysis, lot tracking, cycle counting support
etc. Management of the inventories, with the primary objective of determining/controlling
stock levels within the physical distribution function to balance the need for product
availability against the need for minimizing stock holding and handling costs.
ABC Analysis
ABC Analysis
ABC analysis classifies various inventory into three sets or groups of priority the
allocates managerial efforts in proportion of The priority the most important item are
classified into class - A, Those of intermediate importance are classified as “class - B’’ and
remaining items are classified into class - C’.
The financial manager has to monitor the items belonging to monitor the items
belonging to different groups in that order of priority and depending upon the consumptions.
The items with the highest values is given priority and soon and are more controlled
then low value item. The re - rational limits are as follows
A 05 - 10 70 - 85
B 10 - 20 10 - 20
C 70 – 85 05 - 10
Procedure
I. Items with the highest value is given top priority and soon.
II. There after cumulative totals of annual value consumption are expressed as
percentage of total value of consumption.
III. Then these percentage values are divided into three categories. ABC analysis helps in
allocating managerial efforts in proportion to importance of various items of
inventory

INTERPRETATIONS
In 2013-2014, finished goods turnover ratio is 3.93, which was not a good indicator because a
lower ratio indicates that the company does more stocking than is required. However, in
2014-2015 financial year also it has been slightly decreased in decimals i.e. 3.84 that was also
not a good indicator. When we observe in 2015-2016, it has been increased to 7.28, which is
a very high improvement in the industry. Later it was increased to 9.04 and in 2017-2018,
there was drastically change in finished goods turnover ratio i.e. 0.73 Because there was no
closing stock of finished goods in 2016-2017 which resulted in downfall of finished goods
turnover ratio in 2017-2018. However, in 2018-2019 the story of this industry was changed
differently there was huge increase in the ratio i.e. 14.07 which has been resulted in increase
of total sales.
We can see that in 2013-2014 financial year the inventory to net working capital ratio is 1.68
that was a bit high when compared to 2012. Where it was increased to, 2.24 in 2014-2015we
can see a great change in the ratio that means higher ratio lower the liquidity of a company.
In 2015-2016, it was slightly increased to 2.68 because current assets have been decreased
and current liabilities increased when compared to 2014-2015. However, from 2016 onwards
till now i.e. 2018-2019 financial year it has been in negative because current liabilities have
increased for the company and current assets have drastically decreased. Which means lower
ratio higher liquidity of the company. Because the company is running in losses from 2016-
2017 financial year.
It is the ratio, which was done for the purpose of how many time the company’s ability to
efficiently turn raw materials into finished products. It shows how fast the stock moves in and
out of the company.
As we can see that in 2013-2014 financial year 1.94 times in the year, which stock moves
from in and out from the company. In 2014-2015, the ratio has been increased to 2.10
because the purchases of the company have increased when compared to previous year. In
2015-2016, it has been decreased to 1.27 because of low purchases. In 2016-2017 it has been
increased to 6.90 which was very good improvement for the company because the purchases
are very high during the year. In 2017-2018 the ratio has been drastically fallen down which
was very low i.e. 0.67 because of very low purchases where done during the year. Again, in
2018-2019 it has been climbed up to 8.78 that was a great change for the company. As we
can see that from 2013-2019 we can they have increased their purchases and the company has
become very efficient in turning raw materials to finished goods due to this the finished
goods turnover ratio also have been increased to 14.07.
The high ratio indicates that fast moving inventories and low ratio slow moving or obsolete
inventories in stock in the company. It is the one of the most important ratio among all
inventory management ratios.
We can observe that the inventory turnover ratio in the year 2013-2014 is 3.97 that was high
when compared to previous year. After that in 2014-2015, financial year it has slightly
decreased to 3.88 which was not affected the company. Nevertheless, in 2015-2016, we can
see that huge change in the ratio that resulted in better-finished goods turnover ratio and the
ratio is 7.53. Similarly, we can observe in 2016-2017 financial year. However, in 2017-2018
it has decreased to 0.75 because of low net sales of the company, which has decreased the
raw material turnover ratio and finished goods turnover ratio. In addition, it has regaining
from the year 2018 it has increased from 0.75 to 1.41. A low ratio may also be the result in
maintaining excessive inventories needlessly.
The inventory conversion period is the time required to obtain materials for a product,
manufacture it, and sell it.
We can see that in 2013-2014 financial year the inventory conversion period is 91days that
was low when compared to previous year. However, in 2014-2015 it has slightly decreased to
94days. In 2015-2016, the company because of high inventory turnover ratio has decreased
the period to 48days that was great improvement. Similarly, it has decreased to 40 days in the
year 2016-2017. But from 2017-2018 it has been increased the days of conversion period it
was very high when compared to previous years i.e. 486 days. But again from 2018-2019
financial year it has been going in order that it has taken 258days for the conversion of raw
materials to product, manufacture and sell it.
The inventory conversion period is essential for the company because the company has to
invest cash while it converts materials into sale.
This ratio shows the portion of assets tied up in inventory. The inventory- to- assets ratio for
one company could be compared with that of others in the same industry.
We can observe that in 2013-2014 financial year the ratio was 0.32 that is better for the
company when compared to previous year. In 2014-2015, it was increased to 0.35 because
the total assets increased when compared to previous year. From 2015 to 2016, it was
decreased to 0.11 that was good for the company. In 2017-2018 financial year, it was slightly
increased to 0.15 because total assets have been decreased. In 2018-2019, it was again
increased to 0.20 because the total assets are increased. Generally, the lower the ratio, that is,
the smaller amount of inventory is when calculated as a percentage of total assets, the better
that company’s inventory efficiency.
