INTRODUCTION

Financial statements are the basis for decision making by the


management as well as all other outsiders who are interested in the affairs of
the firm such as investors, creditors, customers, suppliers, financial institutions,

employees, potential investors, government and the general public the analysis
and interpretation of financial statements depend upon the nature and type of
information available in these statements. A financial statement is a collection

of date organized according to logical and consistent accounting procedures. Its

purpose is to convey an understanding of some financial aspects of a business

firm. It may show a position at a moment in time, as in the case of balance


sheet or may reveal a series of activities over a given period of time as in the
case of an income statement.

Thus the term financial statements generally refers to the two statements

i. The position statement or the balance sheet


ii. The income statement or the profit and loss account.
These statements are used to convey to management and other interested
outsiders the profitability and financial position of a firm.

Financial statements are the outcome of summarizing process of


accounting in the words of “JOHN N.MYER” the financial statement provide a
summary of the accounts of a business enterprise the balance sheet reflecting
the assets, liabilities and capital as on a certain date and the income statement
showing he results of operations during a certain period.“Financial statements
are prepared as an end result of financial accounting and are the major sources
of financial information of an enterprise.
“Smith and Asburne” define financial statements as the end products of

financial accounting in a set of financial statements prepared by the accountant


1
of a business enterprise that purpose to reveal the financial position of the
enterprise, the result of its recent activities and an analysis of what has been
done with earnings. Financial statements are also called financial reports. In the

words of “Anthony” financial statement essentially are interim reports,


presented annually and reflect a division of the life of an enterprise in to more
(or) less arbitrary accounting period more.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT ANALYSIS:
Financial statements are prepared primarily for decision - making. The
play a dominant role in setting the frame work of managerial decisions. But the
information provided in the financial statements is not an end in itself as no
meaningful conclusions can be drawn from these statements alone. However,

the information provided in the financial statements is of immense use in


making decisions through analysis and interpretation of financial statements.
Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and
weaknesses of the firm by property establishing relationship between the items

of the balance sheet and the profit & loss account. There are various methods
or techniques used in analyzing financial statements, such as comparative
statements, trend analysis, common-size statements, schedule of changes in
working capital, funds flow and cash flow analysis, cost-volume - profit
analysis and ratio analysis.
MEANING AND CONCEPT OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
The term “Financial Analysis” also known as analysis and interpretation

of “Financial Statements” refers to the process of determining financial


strengths and weaknesses of the firm by establishing strategic relationship
between the items of the balance sheet, profit & loss account and other
frequently areas operative data.

“ANALYZING FINANCIAL STATEMENTS”


According to METCALF & TITARD, it is a process of evaluating the
relationship between component parts of a financial statement to obtain a better
understanding of firm’s position and performance.

According to MYERS, “It is largely a study of relationship among the


various financial factors in a business as disclosed by a single set of statements,

and a study of the trend of these factors as shown in a series of statements”.

The purpose of financial Analysis is to diagnose the information


contained in financial statements. So as to judge the profitability and financial
soundness of the firm. Just like a doctor examines his patient by recoding his
body temperature, BP etc., before making his conclusion regarding the illness
and before giving his treatments, a financial analyst analysis the financial
statements with various tools of analysis before commenting upon the financial
health or weaknesses of an enterprise.

COMPANY PROFILE

PROFILE OF POLYMER INDUSTRIES IN INDIA

Indian Polymer Industry:

The Indian polymer industry is small by international standards,


accounting for only around 2% of the global production. However, with
significant capacity additions taking place in India, it is expected to increase to
around 3% in the short to medium-term.

Plastics have become an integral part of our daily lives and are a
preferred material for wide spectrum of applications. India is rapidly catching
up with global trends in application development of plastics usage.

Over the last ten years, Polymers consumption in India has increased
from 1 million tons in 1991 to over 3.5 million tons in 2002. Although there
has been a large increase in polymer consumption in India, today, we still have

only a 3% share of the 120 million tons per annum worldwide polymer market.

Low per capita consumption of polymers, growing urbanization and


rising aspirations of the people, Govt. thrust on all around infrastructure
development and changing legislations & tariff structure will be growth drivers
for the polymer industry. This rapid growth will catapult India as the 3 rd largest
polymer consumer in the world after USA and China.

There is a renewed interest in agriculture and food processing with a


resultant demand in the rural areas for consumer durable and non-durable. The
economic growth will bring along a change in lifestyle of millions of people
generating strong growth for polymers, which goes to meet some of the basic
needs. Modern farming through plasticulture, packaging for processed foods
and consumer non-durable, better performing plastics for the automobiles and
consumer durables, infrastructure development through cost effective polymers

and innovative products for telecommunications and other information


technology services sector are the thrust areas for the Indian Polymer Industry

in the millennium.

Indian polymer industry is at crossroads and facing a lot of challenges


like:

1. Increasing globalization of markets

2. Overcapacity in the region

3. Rapid changes in technology

4. Social demands for higher environmental performance

5. Higher customer expectations

6. Growing end-user sophistication

7. Importance of non-price attributes in buying decisions

Indian Consumer is also truly emerging as the king due to exposure to


products and services responsible for raising living standard. Innovative
products with better performance standards and value for money will propel
growth for industrial sector. In the consuming sectors the key will be
innovation and keeping pace and changing habits and expectations of end
customers. Thus the industry has to gear up for paradigm shift in servicing the

value chain by transforming from product centric to service centric.


SECTOR MANAGEMENT:

Reliance's growth aspiration is firmly rooted in the commitment to the


growth of its customers and ultimate end markets. In order to face the
challenges by the polymer industry, Reliance has pioneered "Sectorial
Management Concept" covering all aspects of human life and end markets
thereof. Broadly the end markets serviced by polymer industry are being
classified

1.Packaging

2.Consumer goods

3.Infrastructure

4.Transportation

Within above sectors, the various end markets have different attributes,
growth drivers and stages of development vis-à-vis matured markets in the
developed countries.

To meet the challenges of a demanding market and to accelerate growth,


Reliance is working towards providing total solutions for development of end
markets on sustainable basis. Salient features of sectorial management are
enumerated below.

1. Sector Focus Value addition

2. Servicing Niche markets

3. Regulatory Changes
4. Fixing of standards

5. Brand transplantation

6. Speed to Market

7. Compression of development Cycle

8. Cost effective & technically feasible products

9. Reactor molecule to the market place

10. Stimulant for entrepreneur development

11. Downstream Projects

Reliance has dedicated business development team for different sectors,


working with partners across the total value chain to provide quick responses to
market needs.

At Reliance, we Integrate knowledge and complex engineering to offer


Total Solutions for new, innovative and cost effective solutions for daily life.

Global petrochemical product prices and margins witnessed a sharp


increase in 2004, driven mainly by lingering worries over crude oil supply,
lower capacity additions and healthy demand growth (especially from China).

In 2004, the average price of naphtha was around $390 per tones ($196 per
tones in 2003), ethylene was $910 per tones ($466 per tones in 2003) and hype

was $955 per tones ($630 per tones in 2003). High prices, and the producers'
ability to pass on high feedstock costs, expanded cracker margins to $502 per

tones ($134 per tones in 2003, touched an all-time high of $914 per tones in
September 2004). CRIS INFAC forecasts that prices will remain strong over
the next 15-18 months. Domestic product prices will increase in line with
global prices in the medium term. In the medium term, any increase in
regulated natural gas prices will affect the profitability of gas-based producers

(IPCL and GAIL). The reduction in customs duty and the implementation of
the Asian Free Trade Agreement, will strain margins in the medium-to-long
term.

In 2004-05, CRIS INFAC expects polymer demand to increase by 2.5-


3.0 percent, as against the industry's earlier prediction of around 10 per cent. A

sharp jump in petrochemical product prices is expected to lead to higher usage

of recycled plastics and fillers, thus lowering polymer off take. In 2005-06,
CRIS INFAC expects a marginal recovery in polymer demand owing to
expectations of lower petrochemical product prices, led by lower crude oil
prices and polymer duty cuts. Among polymers, PP and hype are expected to

register healthy growth rates.

Most domestic polymer markets are characterized by significant


overcapacities. Moreover, the expected entry of new players like IOC, ONGC,

and CPCL will augment the surplus in the long run. Existing players also plan

to expand capacities. Capacity additions will increase the dependence on


exports. As a result, corporate profitability will be affected, to some extent,
over the long term. Moreover, new capacity additions, expected in the Middle
East in 2-3 years, will have the advantage of low-cost feedstock, intensifying
the competition.

THEORETICAL FRAME WORK

TYPES OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:

Financial analysis can be classified into different categories depends upon:

1) The Material used and

2) The method of operation followed in the analysis or the modus operandi


of analysis.

Types of Financial Analysis

On the basis of material used On the basis of Modus Operation

External Internal Horizontal Vertical


Analysis Analysis Analysis Analysis

i) On the basis of material used:- According to material used,


financial analysis can be of two types.

(a) External analysis

(b) Internal analysis.

a) External analysis: This analysis is done by outsides that do not have


access to the detailed internal accounting records of the business firm.
These outsiders include investors, potential investors, creditors, potential
creditors, Govt. agencies, credit agencies & general public for financial
analysis; these external parties of the firm depend almost entirely on the
published financial statements. External analysis, thus serves only a limited
purpose.

b) Internal analysis: The analysis conducted by persons who have


access to the internal accounting records of a business firm is known as
internal analysis. Such an analysis can, therefore, be performed by
executive & employees of the org. as well as govt. agencies which have
statutory powers rested in them. Financial analysis for managerial purpose

is the internal type of analysis that can be affected depending upon the
purpose to be achieved.

ii) On the basis of modus operandi:- According to the method of


operation followed in the analysis, financial analysis can also be of 2 types

a) Horizontal analysis &


b) Vertical analysis

a) Horizontal Analysis: It refers to the comparison of financial data of


a company for 7 years. The figures for this type of analysis are presented
horizontally over a no. of columns. The figures of the various years are
compared with standard or base year. A base year is a year chosen as
beginning point. This type of analysis is also called “Dynamic Analysis” as
it is based on the data from year to year rather than on data of any one year.

The horizontal analysis makes it possible to focus attention on items that


have changed significantly during the period under review.
b) Vertical Analysis: Vertical analysis refers to the study of relationship
of the various items in the financial statements of one accounting period. In
these types of analysis the figures from financial statement of a year are
compared with a base selected from the same year’s statements. It is also
known as “Static Analysis” common-size financial statements & financial
ratios are the 2 tools employed in vertical analysis. Since vertical analysis
considers data for one time period only, it is not very conducive to a proper
analysis of financial statements. However, it may be used along with
horizontal analysis to make it more effective & meaningful.
METHODS OF DEVICES OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:
The analysis & interpretation of financial statements is used to determine
the financial position & results of operations as well. A No. of methods or
devices are used to study the relationship between different statements. An
effort is made to use those devices which clearly analyze the position of the
enterprise. The following methods of analysis are generally used.

1) Comparative Statements
2) Trend Analysis
3) Common-size Statements
4) Funds flow Analysis
5) Cash flow Analysis
6) Ratio Analysis
1) COMPARATIVE STATEMENTS:-
The comparative financial statements are statements of the financial
position at different periods; of time. The elements of financial position are

shown in a comparative form so as to give an idea of financial position at


two or more periods. Any statement prepared in a comparative form will be

covered in comparative statements. From practical point of view, generally,


two financial statements (balance sheet & generally, two financial
statements (balance sheet & income statements) are prepared in
comparative form for financial analysis purposes. Not only the comparison
of the figures of 2 periods but also be relationship between balance sheet &
Income statement enables an in depth study of financial position &
operative results. The comparative statement may show.

i) Absolute figures (rupee amounts)


ii) Changes in absolute figures i.e., increase or decrease in absolute
figures.
iii) Absolute data in terms of percentages
iv) Increase or decrease in terms of percentage.

The financial data will be comparative only when same accounting


principles are used in preparing these statements. In case of any deviations in
the use of account principles this fact must be mentioned at the foot of financial
statements & the analyst should be careful in using these statements. The 2
comparative statements are:-

i) Balance sheet &

ii) Income Statement


i) Comparative Balance Sheet: The comparative Balance sheet analysis
is the study of the trend of the same items, group of items & computed items in
2 or more balance sheets of the same business enterprise on different dates. The

changes in periodic balance sheet items reflect the conduct of a business. The

changes can be observed by comparison of the balance sheet at the beginning


& at the end of a period & these changes can help in-forming an opinion about
the progress of an enterprise. The comparative balance sheet has two columns

for the data of original balance sheets. A third column is used to show
increased in figures. The fourth column may be added for giving percentages

of increases or decreases.

Guidelines for interpretation of comparative balance sheet:

While interpreting comparative balance sheet the interpreter is


expected to study the following aspects.

(1) Current financial position & liquidity position

(2) Long-term financial position

(3) Profitability of the concern

ii) Comparative Income Statement:


The Income Statement gives the results of the operations of a business.
The comparative income statement gives an idea of the progress of a
business over a period of time. The changes in absolute data in money
values & percentages can be determined to analyze the profitability of the
business. Like comparative balance sheet income statement also has 4
columns. First two columns give figures of various items for 2 years. Third
& fourth columns are used to show increase or decrease in figures in
absolute amounts & percentages respectively.
2) TREND ANALYSIS:
The Financial statements may be analyzed by computing trends of series
of information. This method determines the direction upwards or
downwards & involves the computations of the percentage relationship that
computations of the percentage relationship that each statement items bears
to the same item in base year.

3) COMMON-SIZE STATEMENT:
The common-size statements, balance sheet & Income statement are
shown in analytical percentages. The figures are shown as percentages of
total assets, total liabilities & total sales. The total assets are taken as 100 &
different assets are expressed as a percentage of the total. Similarly various
liabilities are taken as a part of total liabilities. These statements are also
known as component percentage or 100% statements because every
individual item is stated as a percentage of the total 100.

1) Common-size balance sheet: A statement in which balance sheet


items are expressed as the ratio of each asset to total assets & the ratio of
each liability is expressed as a ratio of total liabilities is called common-size
balance sheet.

The Common-size balance sheet can be used to compare companies of


differing size. The comparison of figures in different periods is not
useful because total figures may be affected by a no. of factors. It is not
possible to establish standard norms for various assets. The trends of
figures from year to year may not be studied & even they may not give

proper results.
ii) Common-size Income Statement: The items in income statement
can be shown as percentages of sales to show the relation of each item to
sales. A significant relationship can be established between items of income
statement & volume of sales.

LIMITATIONS OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS:-


Financial analysis is a powerful mechanism of determining financial
strengths and weaknesses of a firm. But, the analysis is based on the
information available in the financial statements. Thus, the financial
analysis suffers from serious interest limitations of financial statements as

studied in the previous chapter, the financial analyst has also to be careful
about the impact of price level changes, window - dressing of financial
statements, changes in accounting policies of a firm, account concepts and

conventions, and personal judgment, etc. It is only a study of interim


reports.

1. Financial analysis is based upon only monetary information & non-


monetary factors are ignored.
2. It does not consider changes in price levels.
3. As the financial statements are prepared on the basis of a going
concern, it does not give exact position. Thus accounting concepts
and conventions cause a serious limitation to financial analysis.
4. Changes in accounting procedure by a firm may often make financial
analysis misleading.
5. Analysis is only a means and not an end in itself. The analyst has to
make interpretation and draw his own conclusions. Different people
may interpret the same analysis in different ways.
6. Financial analysis is based upon only monetary information & non-
monetary factors are ignored.
7. It does not consider changes in price levels.
6. RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis is a widely used tool for financial analysis. It is defined as
the systemic uses of ratio to interpret the financial statements so that the
strengths and weakness of a firm as well it is historical performance and
current financial condition can be determined.

MEANING AND CONCEPT OF RATIO:


Since, we are using the term ratio in relation to financial statement
analysis, it may property mean “An Accounting Ratio” or Financial Ratio”. It
may be defined as the mathematical relationship between two accounting
figures. But these figures must be related cause and effect relationship to
produce a meaningful and useful ratio.

A ratio is a simple mathematical expression. It is number expressed in


terms of another number, expressing the quantitative relationship between the

two.

Ratio analysis is the technique of interpretation of financial statements


with the help of various meaningful ratios.
Ratios do not add to any information that is already available, but they
show the relationship between two items in a more meaningful way which help
us to draw certain conclusions.
IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS:
The ratio analysis is the most important tool of financial analysis. The
various groups of people having different interest are interested in analyzing
the financial information.

These groups use the ratio analysis to determine a particular financial


characteristic of the firm in which they are interest. The importance of ratio
analysis can be summarized for the various groups vested with diversified
interests as under:

a. For Short-term creditors:- The short-term creditors like bankers and


suppliers of material can determine the firm’s ability to meet its current
obligations with help of liquidity ratios such as current ratio and quick ratio.

b. For Long - term creditors:- The long-term creditors like debenture -


holders and financial institutions can determine firm’s long-term financial or
capital structure ratios such as debt equity ratio. The can known:

a. What sources or long-term finances are employed?


b. What is the relationship between various sources of finances?
c. Is there any risk to the solvency of the firm due to the employment
of excessive long term debts?
c. For Management:- The management can determine the operating
efficiency with which the firm is utilizing its various assets in generating sales

revenues with the help of activity ratios such as capital turnover ratio, stock
turnover ratio, etc., besides this, the management can use the ratios for
forecasting purposes also. The management can better assess the performance

of the firm.

i) By comparing the actual ratios with standard.


ii) By comparing the ratios of one period with those of another
period.
ADVANTAGES OF RATIO ANALYSIS:

1. Ratio analysis simplifies the understanding of financial statements.


2. Ratio bring out the inter relationship among, various financial figures
and bring to light their financial significance and it is a device to
analyze and interpret the financial health of the enterprise.
3. Ratios contribute significantly towards effective planning and
forecasting.
4. Ratios facilitate inter firm and intra firm comparisons.
5. Ratios serve as effective control tools
6. Ratios cater to the particular information need of particular person.

LIMITATIONS:
1. Ratio may not prove to be the ideal tool for inter firm comparisons.
When two firms adopt different accounting policies.
2. A study of ratios in isolation, without studying the actual figures, may
lead to wrong conclusions.
3. Ratios can be calculated only on the basis on the data if the original
data is not reliable, then ratios will be misleading.
4. Ratio analysis suffers from lack of consistency.
5. In the absence of well accepted standards, interpretation of ratios
becomes subjective.
CLASSIFICATION:
Ratios are classified in a number of ways, depending upon the basis of
classification. The basis for classification can be.

1. Based on traditional classification


2. Based on functional classification
3. Based on importance
4. Based on the point of time in relation to which ratios are calculated.
5. Based on the usage of ratios
6. Based on the nature of ratios.

Financial Ratios in view of the requirements of various users. (i.e., short


term creditors, long term creditors, management, investors) of the ratios one
may classify the ratios into the following six groups.

a. Liquidity Ratios
b. Activity / Turnover Ratios.
c. Profitability Ratios
d. Coverage Ratios

EVALUATING THE PERFORMANCE OF SRI
VENKATESHWARA POLYMERS BY USING TECHNIQUES
OF RATIO ANALYSIS FOR LAST FIVE YEARS 2013-2018
1. Current asset ratio
2. Absolute quick ratio / acid test ratio
3. Working capital turnover ratio
4. Debtors turnover ratio

1. Current Ratio:

Current ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. Current


assets are assets that are expected to be realized in cash or sold or consumed
during the normal operating cycle of the business or within one year whichever
is long run. They include cash in hand and at bank, bills receivable, net sundry
debtors, stock of raw materials, finished goods and work in progress, prepaid

expenses.
Current liabilities are liabilities that are to be repaid with in a period of
one year. They include bills payable, sundry creditors, bank over draft,
outstanding expenses, and income received in advanced, short term loans and
advance repayable within a year.

Current Assets
Current Ratio =
Current Liabilities

A current ratio of 2:1 is usually considered as ideal. The higher the current
ratio the larger is the amount of rupee available per rupee of current liability.
The more is the firm’s ability to meet current obligations and the greater is the
safety of funds of short term credit.

CHART: 3.6

2014-15 2015-16 2016-17 2017-18 2018-19


INTERPRETATION:

The above table-1 & Graphical Statement-1 show that current ratio of Sri

Venkateshwara Polymers is adequate. The current ratio of 2:1 signifies that

current assets are twofold of its short term obligations. The liquidity position as

measured by current ratio is better in case of studied organization.


2. Quick Ratio:

Quick ratio is a ratio of quick assets to quick liabilities. Quick assets are

assets that can be converted into cash without much loss.


Quick liabilities are liabilities which must be paid within one year.
All current assets except stock and prepaid expenses are also quick
assets.
All current liabilities except bank overdraft are quick liabilities.

Quick Assets
Quick ratio = -------------------------------
Quick Liabilities

Quick assets = current assets - (stock + prepaid expenses)


Quick liabilities = current liabilities - bank overdraft.

1. A quick ratio of 1 usually considered as ideal


2. A quick ratio of less than 1 indicates the inadequate liquidity of the
business.
3. A high quick ratio is not advisable.
