    PURPOSE OF STUDYPURPOSE OF STUDY

    Trading and Profit & Loss Account, Balance Sheet and various schedulesprepared at the end of the year do not always convey to the reader the realsignificance of operating results and financial health of the business. Suchfinancial statements, at the most present various facts, whether these factsindicate a good, bad or indifferent managerial performance or whether they

    point to a probability o future success or failure is for the reader to conclude.And rarely can satisfactory diagnosis be reached on the basis of suchinformation alone. In order to make such statement more meaningful, the userresorts to the technique of making calculations in the form of comparative

    balance sheet and income statements, common size percentage, trend ratios,ratio expressing the relationship of items selected from the statements. Theseanalysis help in achieving the ultimate aim of interpreting the financialstatements. In order to adopt any or all the above techniques of analysis it isnecessary to calculate ratios.

    [In this project, attempt is made to focus on analyzing and interpreting the ratiosto study the financial performance of the Crompton Greaves Ltd for the period2005-2006 to 2007-2008.]

    RATIO ANALYSISRATIO ANALYSIS

    RATIO: -The term ratio refers to the numerical or quantative relationshipbetween 2 items or variables.

    EXPRESSION OF RATIOS

    1. Pure : -Expressed as quotientE.g.: - Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current Liabilities

    = Rs. 2,00,000/ Rs. 1,00,000= 2:1

    2. Percentage: -Expressed in percentageE.g.: - Gross Profit Ratio = Gross Profit/Net Sales X 100

    = 25%

    3. Time : -Expressed in number a particular figure is compared to anotherfigure

    E.g.: - Stock turnover ratio which studies relationship between cost ofgoods sold. And average stock is (say) 4 times

    4. Fraction : -Expressed as fractionE.g.: - Ratio of fixed assets to share Capital is (say) (0.75)

    5. Expressed in number of days

    E.g.: - The average collection period is 73 daysThese alternatives methods of expressing items, which are related to eachother, are for purposes of financial analysis, referred to as ratio analysis. Itshould be noted that ratio des not have inherent value. What the ratio does isthat they reveal the relationship in a more meaningful way so as to enableequity investors; management and lenders make better investment and creditdecisions. The rationale of ratio analysis lies in the fact that it makes relatedinformation comparable. A single figure by itself has no meaning but whenexpressed in terms of a related figure, it yields significant inferences

    ANALYSIS: - The term analysis refers to the separation of a whole into partforstudy or interpretation

    RATIO ANALYSISRATIO ANALYSIS

    Ratio analysis is a widely used tool of financial analysis. It is defined as thesystematic use of ratio to interpret the financial statements so that the strengthsand weakness of a firm, as well as its historical performance and currentfinancial condition can be determined.In ratio analysis, various ratios are computed, depending upon the objective ofthe user and analyzing the financial statements. Short-term creditors are

    primarily concerned with a companys ability to meet short-term debt fromcurrent assets, so they concentrate on the Liquidity Ratios emphasizing cash

    flow. Long-term creditors want to be paid back in the long-term, so they look tosolvency ratios such as Total Debt to Total Stockholders equity. Potentialinvestors are interested in dividends and appreciation in market price of stock,so they focus on profitability ratios (e.g., profit margin) and market measures(e.g., price-earnings ratio). Auditors zero in on the going concern of the client

    by determining its ability to meet debt (e.g., interest coverage ratio).

    BASIS OF COMPARISIONBASIS OF COMPARISION

    Ratio, are relative figure reflecting the relationship between variables. Theyenable analysts to draw conclusion regarding financial operations. The use ofratios, as a tool of financial analysis, involves their comparison, for a singleratio, like absolute figure, fails to reveal the true position i.e., is it favourable orunfavourable. Four types of comparisons are involved: -

    1) Trend ratios2) Interfirm comparison3) Comparison of items with a single years financial statement of a firm4) Comparison with standards or plan

    Trend ratios: -Trend ratios involve a comparison of the ratios of a firm over

    time, that is, present ratios are compared with past ratios for the same firm. Thecomparison of the profitability of a firm, say, year 1 through 5 is an illustrationof a trend ratio. Trend ratios indicate the direction of change in the

    performance-improvement, deterioration or constancy-over the years.

    16/57

    Interfirm comparison: - The interfirm comparison involves comparison ofratios of a firm with those of others in the same line of business or the industryas a whole its performance in relation to its competitors

    Other types of comparison: - Other types of comparison may relate tocomparison of items within a single years financial statement of a firm andcomparison with the standards or plans.

    OBJECTIVE OF RATIO ANALYSISOBJECTIVE OF RATIO ANALYSIS

    1) The main objective of ratio analysis is to Test and Make QualitativeJudgment about the Firms Profitability, Financial Position (Liquidity &Solvency), and Operating Efficiency.

    E.g.: - Current Ratio is calculated by dividing current assets by currentliabilities; the ratio indicates a relationship-a qualified relationship betweencurrent assets and current liabilities.2) It measures the Firms Liquidity: The greater the ratio, the greater the

    firms liquidity and vice-versa.3) In Financial Analysis, a ratio is used as a benchmark for evaluating the

    financial position and performance of a firm.4) An Accounting figure conveys meaning when it is related to some other

    relevant information.E.g. Rs.5 Crore Net Profit may look impressive, but the firms performance

    can be said to be good or bad only when the net profit is related to the firmsinvestment.

    TYPES OF RATIOSTYPES OF RATIOS

    1) Liquidity Ratios: - They measure the firms ability to meet currentobligations.

    2) Solvency Ratios: - They show the proportions of debt & equity infinancing the firms assets.

    3) Activity Ratios: - They reflect the firms efficiency of utilizing assets.4) Profitability Ratios: - They measure overall performance and

    effectiveness of the Firm.5) Coverage Ratios: - They measure the profit to measure the interest

    charges.

    IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSISIMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS

    As a tool of financial management, ratios are of crucial significance. Theimportance of ratio analysis lies in the fact that it presents facts on acomparative basis and enables the drawing of inferences regarding the

    performance of a firm. Ratio analysis is relevant in assessing performance of afirm in respect of the following aspects: -

    Liquidity positionWith the help of the ratio analysis conclusions can be drawn regarding theliquidity position of a firm. The liquidity position of a firm would besatisfactory if it is able to meet its current obligations when they become due. Afirm can be said to have the ability to meet its short-term liabilities if it hassufficient liquid funds to pay the interest on its short-maturing debt usuallywithin a year as well as to repay the principal. This ability is reflected in theliquidity ratios of a firm. The liquidity ratios are particularly useful in creditanalysis by banks and other suppliers of short-term loans.

    Long-term Solvency

    Ratio analysis is equally useful for assessing the long-term financial liability ofa firm. This aspect of the financial position of a borrower is of concern to thelong-term creditors, security analysts and the present and potential owners of a

    business. The long-term solvency is measured by the leverage/capital structureand profitability ratios, which focus on earning power and operating efficiency.Ratio analysis reveals the strength and weaknesses of a firm in this respect. Theleverage ratios, for instance, will indicate whether a firm has reasonable

    proportion of various sources of finance or if it is heavily loaded with debt in

    which case its solvency is exposed to serious strain. Similarly, the variousprofitability ratios would reveal whether or not the firm is able to offer adequatereturn to its owners consistent with the risk involved.

    Operating Efficiency

    Yet another dimension of the usefulness of the ratio analysis, relevant from theviewpoint of management, is that it throws light on the degree of efficiency inthe management and utilisation of its assets. The various activity ratios measure

    - 17 -

  • 8/2/2019 fINAL Report 12

    18/57

    this kind of operational efficiency. In fact, the solvency of a firm is, in theultimate analysis, dependent upon the sales revenues generated by the use of itsassets-total as well as its components.

    Overall Profitability

    Unlike the outside parties which are interested in one aspect of financialposition of a firm, the management is constantly concerned about the overallprofitability of theEnterprise. That is, they are concerned about the ability of the firm to meet itsshort-term as well as long-term obligations to its creditors, to ensure areasonable return to its owners and secure optimum utilisation of the assets ofthe firm. This is possible if an integrated view is taken and all the ratios areconsidered together.

    Inter-firm Comparison

    Ratio analysis not only throws light on the financial position of a firm but alsoserves as a stepping-stone to remedial measures. This is made possible due tointer-firm comparison and comparison with industry averages. A single figureof a particular ratio is meaningless unless it is related to some standard or norm.One of the popular techniques is to compare the ratios of a firm with theindustry average. It should be reasonably expected that the performance of a

    firm should be in broad conformity with that of the industry to which it belongs.An inter-firm comparison would demonstrate the firms position vis--vis itscompetitors. If the results are at variance either with the industry average orwith those of the competitors, the firm can seek to identify the reasons and, inthat light, take remedial measures.

    Trend Analysis

    Ratio analysis enables a firm to take the time dimension into account. In otherwords, whether the financial position of a firm is improving or deterioratingover the years. This is made possible by the use of trend analysis. Thesignificance of a trend analysis of ratios lies in the fact that the analysts canknow the direction of movement, that is, whether the movement is favourableor unfavorable.

    LimitationsLimitations

    Ratio analysis is a widely used tool of financial analysis. Yet, it suffers fromvarious limitations. The operational implication of this is that while using theratios, the conclusions should not be taken on the face value. Some of thelimitations, which characterize ratio analysis, are: -

    1. Difficulty in comparison

    2. Impact of inflation3. Conceptual diversity

    4. Ignores qualitative factors

    Difficulty in Comparison

    One serious limitation of ratio analysis arises out of the difficulty associatedwith their comparability. One technique that is employed is inter-firmcomparison. But such comparisons are vitiated by different procedures adopted

    by various firms. The differences may relate to: -1. Differences in the basis of inventory valuation (e.g. last in the first out,

    first in first out, average cost and cost)2. Different depreciation methods (i.e. straight method vs written down

    basis)3. Estimated working life of assets, particularly of plant and equipment.4. Amortisation of intangible assets like goodwill patents and so on.5. Amortisation of deferred revenue expenditure such as preliminary

    expenditure and discount on issue of shares.6. Capitalisation of lease.7. Treatment of extraordinary items of income and expenditure and so on.

    Secondly, apart from different accounting procedures, companies may havedifferent accounting periods, implying differences in the composition of theassets, particularly current assets. For these reasons, the ratios of two firms maynot be strictly comparable. Another basis of comparison is the industry average.This presupposes the availability, on a comprehensive scale, of various ratiosfor each industry group over a period of time. If, however, as is likely, such

    - 19 -

  • 8/2/2019 fINAL Report 12

    20/57

    information is not completed is not compiled and available, the utility of ratioanalysis would be limited.

    Impact of Inflation

    The second major limitation of the ratio analysis as a tool of financial analysisis associated with price level changes. This, in fact, is a weakness of thetraditional financial statements, which are based on historical costs. Animplication of this feature of the financial statements as regards ratio analysis isthat assets acquired at different periods are, in effect, shown at different pricesin the balance sheet, as they are not adjusted for changes in the price level. As aresult, ratio analysis will not yield strictly comparable and, therefore,dependable results.

    Conceptual Diversity

    Yet another factor which influences the usefulness of ratios is that there isdifference of opinion regarding the various concepts used to compute the ratios.There is always room for diversity of opinion as to what constitutesshareholders equity, debt, assets, profit and so on. Different firms may use

    these terms in different senses or the same firm may use them to mean differentthings at different times.Also, ratios are only a post-mortem analysis of what has happened between two

    balance sheet dates. For one thing, the position in the interim period is notrevealed by ratio analysis. Moreover they give no clue about the future.In brief, ratio analysis suffers from serious limitations. The analyst should notcarry away by its oversimplified nature, easy computation with high degree of

    precision. The reliability and significance attached to ratios will largely dependupon the quality of data on which they are based. They are as good as the dataitself. Nevertheless, they are an important tool of financial analysis.

    Ignores Qualitative Factor

    Accounting ratios are tools of quantitative analysis only. But sometimesqualitative factors may surmount the quantitative aspects. The calculationsderived from the ratio analysis under such circumstances may get distorted.E.g.: -Though credit may be granted to a customer on the basis of informationregarding his financial position, yet the grant of credit ultimately depends ondebtors character, honesty, past records and his managerial ability.

    LIQUIDITY RATIOSLIQUIDITY RATIOS

    Liquidity ratios measure the ability of the firm to meet its short-term obligationsthat is capacity of the firm to pay its current liabilities as and when they falldue. Thus these ratios reflect the short-term financial solvency of a firm. A firmshould ensure that it does not suffer from lack of liquidity. The failure to meetobligations on due time may result in bad credit image, loss of creditorsconfidence, and even in legal proceedings against the firm on the other hand

    very high degree of liquidity is also not desirable since it would imply thatfunds are idle and earn nothing. So therefore it is necessary to strike a proper

    balance between liquidity and lack of liquidity.

    The various ratios that explain about the liquidity of the firm are: -1. Current Ratio2. Acid Test Ratio / quick ratio3. Absolute liquid ration / cash ratio

    CURRENT RATIO

    The current ratio measures the short-term solvency of the firm. It establishes therelationship between current assets and current liabilities. It is calculated bydividing current assets by current liabilities.

    Current Ratio = Current Asset

    Current Liabilities

    - 28 -

  • 8/2/2019 fINAL Report 12

    29/57

    Current assets include cash and bank balances, marketable securities, inventory,and debtors, excluding provisions for bad debts and doubtful debtors, billsreceivables and prepaid expenses. Current liabilities includes sundry creditors,

    bills payable, short- term loans, income-tax liability, accrued expenses anddividends payable.

    INTERPRETATION

    A higher current ratio has better liquidity. A standard norm of current ratio is2:1. Since last 3 years although the current ratio has been decreased butcompanys current assets are more than its current liabilities so the company isassuring to pay its maturing debt as and when it becomes due. Ratio issatisfactory to the company according to its characteristics. It is good sign thatcompany is keeping sufficient margin of safety.

    2. ACID TEST RATIO / QUICK RATIO/ LIQUID RATIO

    It has been an important indicator of the firms liquidity position and is used asa complementary ratio to the current ratio. It establishes the relationship

    between quick assets and current liabilities. It is calculated by dividing quickassets by the current liabilities.

    Acid Test Ratio = Liquid Assets

    Current liabilities

    Quick assets are those current assets, which can be converted into cashimmediately or within reasonable short time without a loss of value. These

    include cash and bank balances, sundry debtors, bills receivables and short-term marketable securities.

    INTERPRETATION

    Liquid ratio is widely accepted as the best available test of the liquidity position

    of the firm. Generally, a liquid ratio 1:1 is considered satisfactory as a firm caneasily meets all current claims. In case of Crompton Greaves, the liquid ratiowas 1.22 in year 2005-06 & it decreased by 0.16 in 2006-07 year i.e., it reachedto 1.06, which is more than the standard norms. But in 2007-08 year the liquidratio was less than the standard norm as it reached to 0.93. Such fluctuationstakes place due gap between collection period & payment period. Liquidity

    position of the firm is almost satisfactory.

    TURNOVER RATIOTURNOVER RATIO

    Turnover ratios are also known as activity ratios or efficiency ratios with whicha firm manages its current assets. The following turnover ratios can becalculated to judge the effectiveness of asset use.

    1. Inventory Turnover Ratio

    2. Debtor Turnover Ratio3. Creditor Turnover Ratio4. Assets Turnover Ratio

    1. INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO

    This ratio indicates the number of times the inventory has been converted intosales during the period. Thus it evaluates the efficiency of the firm in managingits inventory. It is calculated by dividing the cost of goods sold by averageinventory.

    Inventory Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods soldAverage Inventory

    The average inventory is simple average of the opening and closing balances ofinventory. (Opening + Closing balances / 2). In certain circumstances opening

    balance of the inventory may not be known then closing balance of inventorymay be considered as average inventory

    34/57

    INTERPRETATIONInventory Turnover Ratio measures how quickly inventory is sold. A highinventory turnover ratio is better than a low ratio. A high ratio implies good

    inventory management. Yet, a very high ratio calls for a careful analysis & onthe other hand a very low level of inventory has serious implications; it willadversely affects the ability to meet customers demand as it may not cope upwith its requirement. Hence, a firm should have neither too high nor too lowinventory turnover. In case of Crompton Greaves, ratio has decreased from13.75 to 12.35 i.e., by 1.4 times. So it is an alert signal for the companyconsidering that the company should meet the supply of its products accordingto its market demand. Company is almostly managing its investments ininventory efficiently.

    2. DEBTOR TURNOVER RATIO

    This indicates the number of times average debtors have been converted intocash during a year. It is determined by dividing the net credit sales by averagedebtors.

    Debtor Turnover Ratio = Net Credit SalesAverage Trade Debtors

    Net credit sales consist of gross credit sales minus sales return. Trade debtorincludes sundry debtors and bills receivables. Average trade debtors (Opening+ Closing balances / 2)

    When the information about credit sales, opening and closing balances of tradedebtors is not available then the ratio can be calculated by dividing total sales

    by closing balances of trade debtor

    INTERPRETATION

    A higher debtors turnover ratio and shorter collection period, a better is thetrade credit management and better is the liquidity of debtors, as shortcollection period and high turnover ratio imply prompt payment on the part ofdebtors. In short high turnover is preferable. In case of Crompton Greaves ratiois increasing. It has increased from 5.01 to 5.77 i.e., by 0.76 times. It meanstime lag between credit sales & cash collection is reducing which is good signalfor the future of the company.

    3. ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO

    The relationship between assets and sales is known as assets turnover ratio.Several assets turnover ratios can be calculated depending upon the groups ofassets, which are related to sales.

    1. Fixed asset turnover2. Current asset turnover

    3. Net working capital turnover ratio4. Total asset turnover5. Net asset turnover

    1. FIXED ASSET TURNOVER

    This ratio is calculated by dividing sales by net fixed assets.

    Fixed asset turnover = Total Sales

    Fixed Assets

    Net fixed assets represent the cost of fixed assets minus depreciation.

    INTERPRETATION

    A high ratio indicates efficient utilization of fixed assets in generating sales.Companies whose plant & machinery are old show a higher fix asset turnoverratio than the company, which is newly established. In case of CromptonGreaves since 3 years i.e., from 2005-06 to 2007-08 the ratio has increasedfrom 16.89 to 23.18. It means it has increased 6.29 times because of increase inthe sales & depreciation of assets to till date. One of the reasons is that thecompany is not newly established.

Incase of Crompton Greaves, since 3 years thecurrent asset turnover ratio is constantly increasing. During the year 2005-06 itwas 3.13 & it increased to 3.57 in year 2006-07 & had reached to 3.95 in theyear 2007-08 which means over a period of 3 years it has increased by 0.82times which indicates that the assets of the company are efficiently utilized bythe management.

    4. NET WORKING CAPITAL TURNOVER RATIO

    A higher ratio is an indicator of better utilization of current assets and workingcapital and vice-versa (a lower ratio is an indicator of poor utilization of current

    assets and working capital). It is calculated by dividing sales by workingcapital.

    Net working capital turnover ratio = Total Sales

    Net Working Capital

    Working capital is represented by the difference between current assets andcurrent liabilities.
