    The rationale of ratio analysis lies in the fact it makes related informationcomparable. A single figure by itself has no meaning but when expressed in terms of arelated figure, it yields significant inferences.

    Ratio analysis, thus as a quantitative tool , enables analysts to draw quantitativeanswers to questions such as: Are the net profits adequate? Are the assets being usedefficiently? Is the firm solvent? Can the firm meet its current obligations and so on?

    In this study, five major energy industries of the north and south sectors, fiveyear data have been analysed extensively using the Ratio Analysis Methodology. Wehave made use of the Trend Ratios and Inter-firm Comparison in this study to drawconclusions regarding the financial operations of various companies under study.

    Based on the balance sheets and the Profit and Loss statements of the fivecompanies, ratios have been computed to study the financial positions of the company ,the degree of efficiency, its liquidity position and also the level competency in theindustry over the past five years from 2004-09.

    Industry profile:

    Energy Industry:

    The energy industry is a generic term for all of the industries involved theproduction and sale of energy , including fuel extraction, manufacturing, refining anddistribution. Modern society consumes large amounts of fuel, and the energy industry isa crucial part of the infrastructure and maintenance of society in almost all countries .

    In particular, the energy industry comprises:

    the petroleum industry , including oil companies , petroleum refiners, fueltransport and end-user sales at gas stations

    the electrical power industry , including electricity generation , electric powerdistribution and sales

    the coal industry

    the nuclear power industry

    the renewable energy industry , comprising alternative energy and sustainableenergy companies, including those involved in hydroelectric power , wind power , and solar power generation, and the manufacture, distribution and saleof alternative fuels .

    traditional energy industry based on the collection and distribution of firewood , the use of which, for cooking and heating, is particularly common in poorer

    countries

    Defining the energy industry:

    Government classifications

    The United Nations developed the International Standard Industrial Classification , which is a list of economic and social classifications. There is no distinct classification for

    an energy industry, because the classification system is based on activities, products,and expenditures according to purpose.

    Countries in North America use the North American Industry ClassificationSystem (NAICS). The NAICS sectors #21 and #22 (mining and utilities) might roughlydefine the energy industry in North America. This classification is used by the U.S.Securities and Exchange Commission .

    Financial market classifications

    The Global Industry Classification Standard used by Morgan Stanley define theenergy industry as comprising companies primarily working with oil, gas, coal andconsumable fuels, excluding companies working with certain industrial gases.

    Environmental impact

    Because of government encouragement in the formof subsidies and tax incentives , energy conservation efforts are also being increasingly

    viewed as a major function of the energy industry, as saving an amount of energy hasalmost identical economic benefits to generating that same amount of energy.

    This is compounded by the fact that the economics of delivering energy tend to be priced for capacity as opposed to average usage. One of the purposes of a smartgrid infrastructure is to smooth out demand so that capacity and demand curves are moreclosely aligned.

    The energy industry generates a large amount of pollution , including thegeneration of toxic gases and greenhouse gases from fuel combustion, nuclear waste fromnuclear power generation, and oil spillages in the petroleum industry.

    Government regulations to internalize these externalities form an increasing partof doing business, and the trading of carbon credits and pollution credits on the freemarket may also result in energy saving and pollution control measures becoming evenmore important to energy companies.

    REVIEW OF LITERATURE:

    1. Abstract:

    This paper provides a critical review of the theoretical and empirical basis of fourcentral areas of financial ratio analysis. The research areas reviewed are the functionalform of the financial ratios, distributional characteristics of financial ratios, classificationof financial ratios, and the estimation of the internal rate of return from financialstatements. It is observed that it is typical of financial ratio analysis research that thereare several unexpectedly distinct lines with research traditions of their own. A commonfeature of all the areas of financial ratio analysis research seems to be that whilesignificant regularities can be observed, they are not necessarily stable across thedifferent ratios, industries, and time periods. This leaves much space for thedevelopment of a more robust theoretical basis and for further empirical research.Keywords: Financial statement analysis, financial ratios, reviewAcknowledgments: Our thanks are due to Manuel Garcia-AyusoCovarsi of the Universityof Sevilla, Spain, for his constructive comments.Published as TimoSalmi and TeppoMartikainen (1994), "A Review of the Theoretical andEmpirical Basis of Financial Ratio Analysis", The Finnish Journal of Business Economics

Using salary data fromthe ARL Annual Salary Survey, this study analyzes average annual salaries from1994 1995 through 2004 2005. It compares changes in salary rat ios betweenentry-, mid-, and senior-level librarians for evidence of salary compression during this10-year period for 16 of the 20 formally defined ARL position classifications. Evidence isfound for salary compression among the position classifications, but, with certain

    exceptions, the phenomenon of compression has become less severe among ARLlibrarians over the 10 years surveyed.

    3.Abstract:

    This paper presents a capital budgeting analysis of Johnson & Johnson whomanufactures and markets pharmaceuticals for both the health care and consumermarkets. The paper examines their solvency and liquidity, as well as their growth overthe pasty five years. The paper then analyzes their consistently high margins anddiscuses a financial ratio analysis of the company.

    "The time frame for profitability is also fairly long. On a machine with a life spanof eight years, it takes almost 6 full years to realize a payback. Remember that theprofitability is highly sensitive to shifts in unit cost and unit price. Six years is a long timefor the cost structure of the investment to change. If price pressures are felt, the projectwould become unprofitable almost immediately if they are unable to squeeze acorresponding cost decrease from their suppliers. For example, if at year three the unitprice is squeezed, down to $195, and the suppliers cannot or will not adjust their pricesto JNJ accordingly, the project's NPV becomes -106.48. This illustrates the real risk thatprice pressures have, even halfway through the project's life span."

    Research Methodology:

    RESEARCH DESIGN:

    It is the conceptual structure within which research is conducted. It constitutes the blueprint for the collection, measurement and analyses of data. The study aims atnarration of existing facts and figures regarding financial position of five selectedcompanies from the energy industry and the research design adopted in the study has

    been analytical in nature.

    PERIOD OF THE STUDY:

    The study covers a period of 5 years i.e.) from 2004-05 to 2008-09.

    DATA COLLECTION METHOD:The study is based on the secondary data collected from various resources.

    SOURCES OF DATA:Capitaline plus database and other informational sites.

    SAMPLE SPACE:

    In this project, sample of five companies and their performance over five yearsare used to determine the overall financial status of the chosen companies. Thecompanies are chosen randomly and there is no formal procedure for having chosensuch companies. The companies exhibit the expected diversity during the period of study.

    STATISTICAL TOOLS USED:

    The secondary data collected was analysed and interpreted using trend analysisand inter-firm comparisons.

    Ratio Analysis:Ratio Analysis is a widely-used tool of financial analysis. It can be used to

    compare the risk and return relationships of firms of different sizes. It is defined as thesystematic use of ratio to interpret the financial statements so that the strengths andweakness of a firm as well as its historical performance and current financial conditioncan be determined. The term ratio refers to the numerical or quantitative relationshipbetween two items/variables. This relationship can be expressed as (i) percentages, (ii)fraction and (iii) proportion of numbers. These alternative methods of expressing itemswhich are related to each other are, for purpose of financial analysis, referred to as ratio

    analysis. What the ratio does is that they reveal the relationship in more meaningfulway so as to enable equity investors, management and leaders make better investmentand credit decisions.

    The rationale of ratio analysis lies in the fact it makes related informationcomparable. A single figure by itself has no meaning but when expressed in terms of arelated figure, it yields significant inferences. Ratio analysis, thus as a quantitative tool,enables analysts to draw quantitative answers to questions such as: Are the net profitsadequate? Are the assets being used efficiently? Is the firm solvent? Can the firm meetits current obligations and so on?

    Advantages:

    The use of ratios, as a tool of financial analysis, involve their comparison,for a single ratio, like absolute figures, fails to reveal the true position

    Debt equity ratio= Outsiders funds

    Shareholders funds

    LONG TERM DEBT-EQUITY RATIO:

    Long-term debt divided by shareholders' equity, showing relationship between

    long-term funds provided by creditors with respect to the Shareholders funds.

    A high Debt Equity ratio indicates high risk while a lower ratio may indicates

    lower risk. Short-term debt is not included as long as cash is greater then short-

    term debt.

    Long term debt equity ratio= Shareholders funds Total tangible assets

    FIXED ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO:

    Measure of the productivity of a firm, it indicates the amount of sales generated

    DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO:

    By maintaining accounts receivable, firms are indirectly extending interest-free

    loans to their clients. A high ratio implies either that a company operates on a cash basis or that its

    extension of credit and collection of accounts receivable is efficient.

    Debtors turnover ratio= Debtors+ bills receivable

    Credit sales

    INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO:

    The interest coverage ratio is a measure of a company's ability to meet its

    interest payments.

    A higher ratio indicates a better financial health as it means that the company is

    more capable to meeting its interest obligations from operating earnings.

    Interest coverage ratio= EBIT

    Interest

    PROFIT BEFORE INTERST DEPRECIATION TAX MARGIN:

    Earnings before interest, tax and amortisation (EBITA) is similar to EBIT but strips

    out amortisation .

    Amortisation is always a non-cash item and therefore of limited interest to

    investors.

    PBITDTM = operating profit

    Suggestions:

    The result of ratio analysis in the performance of five companies is reported.Based on that the following are the suggestions

    IOCL should increase its liquidity because it is maintaining the lowest currentratio of 0.76.

    HPCL should minimize its debt since it has maximum ratio in both the short termand long term Debt-Equity Ratio.

    Return from the inventory should be increased in the companies REL POWERfollowed by IOCL.

    IOCL has the lowest interest coverage ratio and thus tried to increase the intereston capital employed.

    Profitability is low in HPCL when compared to other companies so it should aimat maximising its profits.

    Cost per market price share is low in HPCL with the lowest ratio of 1.17 whichshould be increased.

    Return on capital employed is low in reliance having the value of 1.27 whencompared to other four companies. Thus return on capital employed should beincreased in reliance.

    Price Earnings should be increases in HPCL as it has the lowest price earning valuein the market when compared to the other 4 companies.

    ThusReliance, HPCL and IOCL should improve its financial position whencompared to ONGC.

    These are the suggestions we have observed from the above analysis and research.

    Conclusion:

    The ratios so far measure a firms liquidity, solvency, efficiency of operations andprofitability independent of one another. However, there exists interrelationship amongthese ratios. This aspect is brought out by integrated analysis of ratios. Thedisaggregation of ratios can reveal certain major economic and financial aspects, whichotherwise would have been ignored. For instance, significant changes in profitabilitymeasured in terms of return on assets (ROA) and return on equity (ROE) are understoodbetter through an analysis of its components.

    The various profitability ratios discussed earlier throw light on the profitability of a firm from the viewpoint of (i) the owners of the firm, and (ii) the operating efficiencyof the firm. The ratios covered under the rate of return to the equity-holders fall underthe first category.

    The operating efficiency of a firm in terms of the efficient utilization of theresources is reflected in net profit margin. It has been observed that although a highprofit margin is a test of better performance, a low margin does not necessarily imply alower rate of return on investments if a firm has higher investments/assets turnover.

    Therefore, the overall operating efficiency of a firm can be accessed on the basisof a combination of the two. The combined profitability is referred to as earningpower/return on assets (ROA) ratio. The earning power of a firm may be defined as theoverall profitability of the enterprise. This ratio has two elements: (i) profitability onsales as reflected in the net profit margin, and (ii) profitability of assets which revealedby the assets/investment turnover.

  • 8/14/2019 Energy Industr Mini Project.

    37/38

    The ROA ratio is a central measure of the overall profitability and operationalefficiency of a firm. It shows the interaction of profitability and activity ratios. It impliesthat the performance of a firm can be improved either by generating more sales volumeper rupee of investment or by increasing the profit margin per rupee of sales.
