Chapter 1- Introduction Indian Textile Industry

The Indian Textile Industry has an overwhelming presence in the economic life of the country. Apart from providing one of the basic necessities of life, the textile industry also plays a pivotal role through its contribution to industrial output, employment generation and the export earnings of the country. Currently, it contributes about 14 percent to industrial production, 4 percent to the GDP, and 16 percent to the countrys export earnings. It provides direct employment to about 35 million people. The Textile sector is the second largest provider of employment after agriculture. Thus, the growth and all round development of this industry has a direct bearing on the improvement of the economy of the nation. The Indian textile industry is extremely varied, with the hand-spun and hand woven sector at one end of the spectrum, and the capital intensive, sophisticated mill sector at the other. The close linkage of the Industry to agriculture and the ancient culture and traditions of the country makes the Indian textile sector unique in comparison with the textile industry of any other country. This also provides the industry with the capacity to produce a variety of products suitable to different market segments, both within and outside the country.

Weaknesses The Brand Name and the Label TT is not owned by the company. Termination of the agreement with the owner of the Brand and Label may affect the business of the company. The Company has not entered into any firm arrangements with any party for supply of cotton. Any upward fluctuation in price of cotton or unavailability may affect the companys operations. The companys business is dependent on the manufacturing facilities. The shutdown of operations at any of the manufacturing facilities may have an adverse effect on the operations. The companys business is growing; any inability to manage this growth could result in disruptions in its business and may result in reduced sales and profits. The Companys success on a large scale depends upon its senior management, directors and key personnel and its ability to attract and retain them. The loss of any of these personnel may adversely affect its business and result of operations.

15

Opportunities The Indian Textile Industry is the second largest in the world. It has the largest cotton acreage (9 million hectares). It is the third largest cotton producer. It ranks fourth in terms of staple fibre production, and sixth in filament yarn production. India accounts for (circa) 25% of the Global trade in cotton yarn. Knitted garments account for almost 32 percent of all exported garments.

Threats Indian knitwear industry is highly fragmented It is highly dependent on cotton Unfavourable labour laws Infrastructural bottlenecks and inefficiencies prevalent in India economy Lack of technological development that affect the productivity and activities in whole value chain Competition from other countries especially China Continuous quality improvement is the need of the hour as there are different demands patterns all over the world.

Finance & Accounts Department

A business is normally organized by its functions, e.g. marketing department, accounts department and so on. This is because being grouped together allows the functions to benefit from specialization and division of labour. This leads to lower unit costs and a greater efficiency. Importance of finance and accounts department: The finance and accounts department of a business takes responsibility for organizing the financial and accounting affairs including the preparation and presentation of appropriate accounts, and the provision of financial information for managers. The main areas covered by the financial department include: 1. Book keeping procedures. 2. Creating a balance sheet and profit and loss account. 3. Providing management information. 4. Management of wages. 5. Raising of finance. Most people dont realize the importance of the accounting department in keeping a business operating without hitches and delays. Thats probably because accountants oversee many of the back-office functions in a business as opposed to sales, for example, which is front-line activity, out in the open and in the line of fire. Folks may not think much about these back-office activities, but they would sure notice if those activities didnt get done. On payday, a business had better not tell its employees, Sorry, but the accounting department is running a little late this month; youll get your checks later.

Responsibility of Accounting department:

Payroll: The total wages and salaries earned by every employee every pay period, which are called gross wages or gross earnings, have to be calculated. Based on detailed private information in personnel files and earnings-to-date information, the correct amounts of income tax, and other deductions from gross wages have to be determined. Stubs, which report various information to employees each pay period, have to be attached to payroll checks. The total amounts of withheld income tax have to be paid to central government agencies on time. Retirement, vacation, sick pay, and other benefits earned by the employees have to be updated every pay period.
17

In short, payroll is a complex and critical function that the accounting department performs. Many businesses outsource payroll functions to companies that specialize in this area.

Cash collections: All cash received from sales and from all other sources has to be carefully identified and recorded, not only in the cash account but also in the appropriate account for the source of the cash received. The accounting department makes sure that the cash is deposited in the appropriate checking accounts of the business and that an adequate amount of coin and currency is kept on hand for making change for customers. Accountants balance the checkbook of the business and control who has access to incoming cash receipts. (In larger organizations, the treasurer may be responsible for some of these cash flow and cash-handling functions.)

Cash payments (disbursements): In addition to payroll checks, a business writes many other checks during the course of a year to pay for a wide variety of purchases, to pay property taxes, to pay on loans, and to distribute some of its profit to the owners of the business. The accounting department prepares all these checks for the signatures of the business officers who are authorized to sign checks. The accounting department keeps all the supporting business documents and files to know when the checks should be paid, makes sure that the amount to be paid is correct, and forwards the checks for signature.

Procurement and inventory: Accounting departments usually are responsible for keeping track of all purchase orders that have been placed for inventory (products to be sold by the business) and all other assets and services that the business buys from postage to forklifts. A typical business makes many purchases during the course of a year, many of them on credit, which means that the items bought are received today but paid for later. So this area of responsibility includes keeping files on all liabilities that arise from purchases on credit so that cash payments can be processed on time. The accounting department also keeps detailed records on all products held for sale by the business and, when the products are sold, records the cost of the goods sold.

Property accounting: A typical business owns many substantial long-term assets called property, plant, and equipment including office furniture and equipment, retail display cabinets, computers, machinery and tools, vehicles (autos and trucks), buildings, and land.

18

Except for small-cost items, such as screwdrivers and pencil sharpeners, a business maintains detailed records of its property, both for controlling the use of the assets and for determining personal property and real estate taxes. The accounting department keeps these records. The accounting department may be assigned other functions as well, but this list gives you a pretty clear idea of the back-office functions that the accounting department performs. Quite literally, a business could not operate if the accounting department did not do these functions efficiently and on time. To do these back-office functions well, the accounting department must design a good bookkeeping system and make sure that it is accurate, complete, and timely.

Accounts Payable Division

Accounts payable, also known as Creditors, is money owed by a business to its suppliers and its employees and shown on its Balance Sheet as a liability. Accounts payable is recorded in the Account Payable sub-ledger at the time an invoice is vouch red for payment. Vouch red, or vouched, means that an invoice is approved for payment and has been recorded in the General Ledger or AP sub ledger as an outstanding, or open, liability because it has not been paid. Payables are often categorized as Trade Payables, payables for the purchase of physical goods that are recorded in Inventory, and Expense Payables, payables for the purchase of goods or services that are expensed. Common examples of Expense Payables are advertising, travel, entertainment, office supplies and utilities. Accounts Payables is a form of credit that suppliers offer to their customers by allowing them to pay for a product or service after it has already been received. Suppliers offer various payment terms for an invoice. Payment terms may include the offer of a cash discount for paying an invoice within a defined number of days In a company, there is usually a much broader range of services in the Accounts Payable file, and accountants or bookkeepers usually use accounting software to track the flow of money into this liability account when they receive invoices and out of it when they make payments. Increasingly, large firms are using specialized Accounts Payable automation solutions (commonly called payables) to automate the paper and manual elements of processing an organization's invoices. Commonly, a supplier will ship a product, issue an invoice, and collect payment later, which describes a cash conversion cycle, a period of time during which the supplier has already paid for raw materials but hasn't been paid in return by the final customer. When the invoice is received by the purchaser it is matched to the packing slip and purchase order, and if all is in order, the invoice is paid. This is referred to as the three-way match.[ The three-way match can slow down the payment process, so the method may be modified. For example, three-way matching
19

may be limited solely to large-value invoices, or the matching is automatically approved if the received quantity is within a certain percentage of the amount authorized in the purchase order.

Reimbursements
Expense administration is usually closely related to accounts payable, and sometimes those functions are performed by the same employee. The expense administrator verifies employees expense reports, confirming that receipts exist to support airline, ground transport, meals and entertainment, telephone, hotel, and other expenses. This documentation is necessary for tax purposes and to prevent reimbursement of inappropriate or erroneous expenses. Airline expenses are, perhaps, the most prone to fraud because of the high cost of air travel and the confusing nature of airline-related documentation, which can consist of an array of reservations, receipts, and actual tickets. Payables are defined as the technology or process automation solutions that automate any part of the accounts payable ("AP") process. The key to Accounts Payable Automation is to develop or invest in technology that will enable the company to free up labor from task the technology can perform. Examples are opening mail, scanning, entry in to the Accounting System or ERP System and filing. There are three main components in AP Automation. 1. 100% Electronic Invoices 2. Event Driven Workflow 3. Reporting Layer to Track all Actions By automating the process, companies can greatly reduce the time it takes to process an invoice. In most cases it can be taken down from several weeks or months to a matter of days. Once an invoice is available electronically, it can automatically be matched against the order and routed for payment and sent to the AP department for processing. Technology also automates the processing of periodic or contract-based purchase invoices. When technology like this is fully implemented, most invoices no longer require human intervention. Internal Control A variety of checks against abuse are usually present to prevent embezzlement by accounts payable personnel. Segregation of duties is a common control. Nearly all companies have a junior employee process and print a cheque and a senior employee review and sign the cheque. Often, the accounting software will limit each employee to performing only the functions assigned to them, so that there is no way any one employee even the controller can singlehandedly make a payment.

20

Some companies also separate the functions of adding new vendors and entering vouchers. This makes it impossible for an employee to add himself as a vendor and then cut a cheque to himself without colluding with another employee. This file is referred to as the master vendor file. It is the repository of all significant information about the company's suppliers. It is the reference point for accounts payable when it comes to paying invoices. In addition, most companies require a second signature on cheques whose amount exceeds a specified threshold. Accounts payable personnel must watch for fraudulent invoices. In the absence of a purchase order system, the first line of defense is the approving manager. In accounts payable, a simple mistake can cause a large overpayment. A common example involves duplicate invoices. An invoice may be temporarily misplaced or still in the approval status when the vendors calls to inquire into its payment status. After the Account Payable staff member looks it up and finds it has not been paid, the vendor sends a duplicate invoice; meanwhile the original invoice shows up and gets paid. Then the duplicate invoice arrives and inadvertently gets paid as well, perhaps under a slightly different invoice number.

21

Financial analysis
Financial analysis is the selection, evaluation, and interpretation of financial data, along with other pertinent information, to assist in investment and financial decision-making. Financial analysis may be used internally to evaluate issues such as employee performance, the efficiency of operations, and credit policies, and externally to evaluate potential investments and the credit-worthiness of borrowers, among other things. The analyst draws the financial data needed in financial analysis from many sources. The primary source is the data provided by the company itself in its annual report and required disclosures. The annual report comprises the income statement, the balance sheet, and the statement of cash flows, as well as footnotes to these statements. Certain businesses are required by securities laws to disclose additional information. Besides information that companies are required to disclose through financial statements, other information is readily available for financial analysis. For example, information such as the market prices of securities of publicly-traded corporations can be found in the financial press and the electronic media daily. Similarly, information on stock price indices for industries and for the market as a whole is available in the financial press. ADVANTAGES OF RATIO ANALYSIS: There are several advantages of ratio analysis. Some of them are: 1) Helps in financial performance analysis: Ratio analysis is very powerful tool for financial performance analysis. Ratio analysis answers various questions relating to companies profitability, assets utilization, liquidity, financing strategies, capabilities etc. 2) Helps in credit analysis: Ratio analysis reveals the credit worthiness of a firm. Creditors are always interested to know whether the liquidity position of the firm is sound or not. Only those companies, whose liquidity position is sound, will be able to repay the loans and survive in the long run. 3) Helps in security analysis: Ratio analysis also helps in security analysis. The major focus in security analysis is on the long-term profitability, which depends on a number of factors. In this the efficiency with which the firm utilizes its assets and the financial risk to which the firm is exposed are also studied. 4) Helps in planning: Ratio Analysis helps in planning and forecasting over a period of time. A firm or industry has certain norms that may indicate future success or failure. 5) Simplifies Financial Statement: Ratios analysis simplifies the comprehension of financial statements. Ratio tells the whole story of changes in the financial condition of the business.
22

6) Facilities Inter Firm Comparison and Trend Analysis: It provides data for inter firm comparison and trend analysis ratio and highlights the factors associated with successful and unsuccessful firms. They also reveal strong firms over value and under value firm.

LIMITATIONS OF RATIO ANALYSIS The ratio analysis is a widely used technique to evaluate the financial position of business. But there are some certain problems in using ratios. The analyst must be aware of these problems. The following are some of the limitations of ratio analysis. 1) Difficulty in comparison: -One serious limitation of ratio analysis arises out of the difficulty associated with their comparison to draw inferences. This may be due to the following: Differences in the basics of inventory valuation. Different depreciation methods. Estimated working life of assets particularly of plant and equipment. Amortization of intangible of assets like good will patents and so on. Amortization of deferred revenue expenditure such as preliminary expenditure and discount on issue of shares. Treatment of extraordinary items of income and expenditure and soon. 2) Impact of Inflation: -The second major limitation of ratio analysis is associated with price level changes. This impact is a weakness of traditional statements that are based on historical costs. 3) Conceptual Diversity: -Another factor that affects the usefulness of ratios is that there is difference of opinion regarding the various concepts used to compute the ratios. 4) The ratios are generally calculated from past financial statement and thus are no indicators of future. 5) Different companies operate in different industries each having different environmental conditions such as regulation, market structure, etc. Such factors are so significant that a comparison of two companies from different industries might be misleading. 6) Financial accounting information is affected by estimates and assumptions. Accounting standards allow different accounting policies, which impairs comparability and hence ratio analysis is less useful in such situations.
23

7) Ratio analysis explains relationships between past information while users are more concerned about current and future information.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS: There are three main types of ratios, namely liquidity ratio, leverage ratios or capital structure, profitability ratio. The ratios in each of these types are as shown below: LIQUIDITY RATIOS: Current ratios Liquid ratio or quick ratio Working capital ratio Inventory turnover ratio Debtors turnover ratio Creditors turnover ratio Fixed assets turnover ratio

LEVERAGE RATIOS: Debt equity ratio Proprietary ratio Capital gearing ratio Interest coverage ratio Total or overall coverage ratio

PROFITABILITY RATIO: Gross profit Ratio Net profit Ratio Operating Ratio Return on Investment Return on share holders Equity Return on Equity capital

LIQUIDITY RATIOS: The term liquidity refers to the firm's ability to meet its current liabilities. A firm should ensure that it does not suffer from lack of liquidity and that it is not too highly liquid. The failure of a firm to meet its obligations due to lack of sufficient liquidity will result in closure of the firm. A very high degree of liquidity is also bad as idle assets earn nothing. The firm's
24

funds will necessarily get locked up in the current assets. Therefore it is necessary to strike a proper balance between liquidity and non-liquidity. The ratios which reflect the short term solvency of a business unit are current ratio, quick ratio, working capital, turnover ratio, stuck turnover ratio, debtors turnover ratio, creditors turnover ratio, fixed assets turnover ratio etc. Current Ratio:

Current ratio is defined as the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. It shows the relationship between total current assets and total current liabilities. It is a measure of the firm's short-term solvency. Current ratio is also called working capital ratio. It is calculated as follows: Current assets Current ratio = -----------------------Current liabilities

Significance of Current ratio: Current ratio is an index of the firm's short-term solvency. In other words, it is the index of the strength of working capital. The higher the current ratio, the greater is the firm's ability to meet its short-term debts. Usually a high current ratio indicates that funds are not being economically used in the firm. There maybe exclusive inventories or account receivable or large idle cash balance. Usually a low current ratio indicates that the firm may have some difficulty in paying off its debts. It is essential that a firm should have a reasonable current ratio. Interpretation: Conventionally a current ratio of 2:1 is considered satisfactory. The higher the current ratio the greater is the margin of safety. The larger the amount of current assets in relation to current liabilities the more is the firms ability to meet its current obligations. Liquid ratio or quick ratio: Liquid ratio is the ratio of liquids (quick assets) to current liabilities. It establishes the relationship between quick assets and current liabilities. It is also called acid test ratio. Liquid assets Liquid ratio= ---------------------------

25

Current liabilities

Where liquid assets = current assets stock Quick ratio is considered to be superior to current ratio in testing the liquidity position of a firm. An asset is liquid if it can be converted into cash immediately or within a reasonable time without loss of value. Cash is the most liquid asset. The other assets that are considered to be relatively liquid and are included in the quick assets are book debts and marketable securities. Stock or inventory and prepaid expenses are considered to be less liquid. When used in conjunction with current ratio, the liquid ratio gives a better picture of the firm's liquidity. Interpretation: A quick ratio of 1: 1 is considered ideal. It is considered that if quick assets are equal to current liabilities then the firm can meet its current obligation. Working capital turnover ratio: Working Capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities. This ratio is computed to test the efficiency with which the net working capital is utilized. In other words, this ratio indicates whether working capital is in making sales. It is calculated as follows: Sales Working capital turnover ratio = ---------------------------Net working capital A low working capital turnover ratio may reflect an inadequacy of working capital and lower turnover of inventories or receivables. A high ratio may be the result of high turnover of inventories or receivables. Current assets mean cash or those assets, which can. be converted into cash within a year, current assets normally include cash in hand and at bank, marketable securities, stock, sundry debtors, bills receivable and prepaid expenses. Current liabilities are those, which are to be repaid within a year. Current liabilities include sundry creditors, bill payable, bank overdraft, and provision for taxation. Interpretation: There is no standard or ideal set for working capital turnover ratio. But one can say that a higher working capital turn over ratio indicates the efficiency of the management in the utilization of the working capital.

26

Inventory turnover ratio: Inventory turnover ratio is also known as stock turnover ratio. This ratio indicates the number of times the inventory is replaced during the year. It shows the rate at which inventories are converted in to sales and then into cash. It establishes the relationship between cost of goods sold and average inventory. Besides, it helps determine the liquidity of a business concern. It is computed as follows: Cost of goods sold Inventory Turnover Ratio = -------------------------------Average inventory 365 Inventory holding period (days) = ------------------------------------Inventory turnover ratio Significance of Inventory Turnover Ratio: It measures the velocity of the conversion of stock into sales. A high inventory turnover indicates Interpretation: It measures the velocity of the conversion of stock into sales. A high inventory turnover indicates efficient management of inventory and low inventory turnover indicates inefficient management of inventory. No standards for inventories are laid down. Debtors turnover ratio: Debtor's turnover ratio is also called as receivable turnover ratio. It relates net credit sales to sundry debtors. The ratio indicates the relationship between the sales and debtors of a firm. It is a test of the liquidity of the debtors of firm. It is calculated as follows: Net credit sales Debtors turn over ratio = ----------------------------------------------Debtors including bills receivables Where net credit sales = credit sales returns

27

The second ratio is the average collection period ratio. It brings out the nature of firms credit policy and the quality of the debtors more clearly. This ratio is calculated as: Debtors x Number of days in a year Average collection period = -----------------------------------------------------Credit sales per day The term debtor for this ratio is the debtors plus bills receivables at theend of the accounting period. Sometimes the ratio is computed by taking the overage of opening and closing debtors. It should be remembered that provision for bad and doubtful debts should not be deducted from debtors. When the credit sales are not given the total sales may be used. Significance of debtors turnover ratio: The debtor turnover ratio indicates the quality of debtors by measuring the rapidity or slowness in the collection process. A shorter collection period (on higher turn over ratio) indicates prompt payment of debtors while a longer period (lower turnover ratio) indicates the inefficiency of the credit collection. Interpretation: There are no fixed norms for this ratio. As a rule higher ratio indicates better efficiency. Creditors turnover ratio: Creditors turnover ratio is the ratio between net credit purchase and the amount of sundry creditors. It implies the credit period enjoyed by the firm in paying its creditors. It is computed by use the following formula: Net credit purchases Creditors turnover ratio = ---------------------------------------------------Sundry creditors bills payable

Where Net credit purchases = credit purchase purchase return.

The terms creditors for this ratio is the amount plus bills payable at the end of the accounting period. Some times the ratio is computed by taking the average of opening and closing creditors. The creditors turnover ratio may also be expressed in days. Then it is known as creditors payment period or creditors velocity.

28

No. of days in a year Creditors velocity = -------------------------------------- x 365 days Net credit purchase Significance of creditors turnover ratio : This ratio reflects whether terms of credit allowed by suppliers are liberal or stringent. A high creditors Turnover ratio (shorter period) shows that creditors are being paid promptly; while a low turn ratio (longer period) reflects liberal credit terms granted by suppliers. Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio: Fixed assets turn over ratio shows the relationship between sales and fixed assets. It shows whether fixed assets are fully utilized, to be clearer, This ratio measures the efficiency with which a firm is utilizing its fixed assets ingenerating its sales. It is computed as follows: Sales Fixed Assets Turnover Ratio = ----------------------Fixed Assets The term fixed assets for this ratio is the depreciated value i.e. the amount of depreciation is deducted from the value of fixed assets. Significance of fixed Assets Turnover Ratio: This ratio measures the efficiency in the utilization of fixed assets. A high ratio reflects over trading. On the other hand, a lower ratio indicates idle capacity and excessive investment in fixed assets. Interpretation: There cannot be any norms for these ratios. But as rule, a higher turnover indicates better utilization. LEVERAGE RATIOS: As already observed, the short-term creditors like banks and suppliers of raw materials are interested in the short-term solvency of a firm. For the analysis of short-term solvency or the current financial position, liquidity ratios are used. The shareholders, debenture holders and other long-term creditors like financial institutions are more interested in the long- term financial position or long term solvency of a firm. Leverage or solvency ratios are used for such an analysis. These ratios are also used to analyze the capital structure of a company. That is only these are also called capital structure ratios. The
29

term solvency generally refers to the firm ability to pay the interest regularly and repay the principal amount of debt on due date. There are two aspects of long-term solvency of a firm: 1. Ability to repay the principal amount of loan on the due date 2. Regular payment of interest. Accordingly, there are two types of leverage ratios. The first type of leverage ratios is based on the relationship between owned capital and borrowed capital. These ratios are calculated from the balance sheet items. The second type of leverage ratios is coverage ratios. These are computed from the profit and loss account. Debt-Equity Ratio: Debt-equity ratio shows the relationship between total debts and owned capital. It is the ratio of the amount invested by outsides to the amount invested by the shareholders. It is known as External-internal Equity ratio. This ratio reflects claims of shareholders and creditors against the assets of a company alternatively; this ratio indicates the relative proportion of debt and equity in financing the assets of a company. It may be expressed as follows: External equity Outsides fund

Debt-equity ratio = ------------------------ or --------------------------Internal Equity Shareholders funds

The term external equity refers to total outside liabilities or borrowed funds. Outside liabilities include all debt whether long term or short term. Internal equity or shareholders funds include equity share capital, preference share capital and reserves and surpluses. Internal equity is equal to net worth. Significance of debt- Equity Ratio:This ratio is one of the most important measures of long-term solvency. It reflects the relative contributions of creditors and owners of business in its financing. It is an index of the degree of protection the creditors have a high ratio shows that the creditors have invested more in the business than the shareholders. Liquidity or quick assets include cash, bank balance debtors, and bills receivable and short-term marketable securities. In order words they are current assets minus stocks and prepaid expenses stock cannot be include in quick assets because it is not easily and readily convertible into cash. Prepaid expenses by their very nature cannot be used for payment of quick liabilities. Current liabilities taken after deducting that it tends to become a permanent mode of financing. Interpretation:
30

A ratio of 1:1 is considered to be a satisfactory ratio, although there cannot be a standard norm for all types of businesses. Proprietary Ratio: This ratio establishes the relationship between shareholders funds and total assets financed by shareholders. This is variant of the debt-equity ratio. This ratio establishes the relationship between shareholders funds and total assets. It indicates the proportion of total assets financed by shareholders. It is usually computed as a percentage. It is computed as follows: Share Holders funds Proprietary Ratio = -------------------------------------------X100 Total assets or Total resources Shareholders funds include equity share capital, preference share capital and all reserves and surpluses. Total assets include all assets including goodwill. Significance of proprietary Ratio: Like debt-equity ratio, proprietary ratio gives results relating to capital structure of a company. It reflects the general financial strength of the company. It enables the creditors to find out the proportion of shareholders funds in the total assets. A high proprietary ratio indicates a relatively favorable position to the creditors at the time of liquidation. On the order hand, a low ratio indicates risk to creditors. Interpretation: As proprietary ratio presents a relationship of owners funds to the total assets, the higher the ratio or the share of the shareholders in the total capital of the firm better is the long-term solvency position of the firm. Capital Gearing Ratio: This is one of the important ratios used to analyze the capital structure of a company. The term capital gearing refers to the proportion b/w fixed income bearing funds and equity shareholders funds. Fixed income bearing funds include. Debentures other long term loans and preference share capital. Equity shareholders funds include equity capital and all reserves and surplus that belong to equity shareholders. Preference share carry a fixed rate of dividend on equity shares and are notified. Fixed income bearing funds Capital gearing ratio = --------------------------------------------------------Equity shareholders funds
31

Where Fixed income bearing funds = preference share capital + debentures+ Long terms Significance of Capital gearing ratio: Capital gearing ratio reveals the company capital structure. This ratio is important not only to the company but also to investors. The capital gearing ratio may affect the company dividend policy building up of reserves etc. this ratio shows the effects of use of fixed interest dividend funds on the profits available to equity shareholders. Interpretation: If the preference share capital and other fixed interest bearing loan the equity share capital and reserve then, the firm is highly geared and vice versa. Usually both are not preferred. A firm must be evenly geared. Profitability Ratio: The ultimate aim of any business enterprise is to earn maximum profit. Lord keens remarked profit is the engine that drives the business enterprise a firm should earn profits to survive and grow over a long period of time. To the management profit is the measure of efficiency and control. To the owners it is to measure of worth of their investment. To the creditors, it is the margin of safety. The management of the company should know how efficiently they carry on business operations. In order words, the management of the company is very much interested in the profitability of the company. Besides management, creditors and owners also are interested in the profitability of the co-creditors want to get interest and repayment of principal regularly. Owners want to get a reasonable return on their investment. The profitability ratios measure the ability of the firm to earn an adequate return on sales total assets and invested capital. Profitability ratios are generally calculated either on relation to sales or in a relation to investment. The profitability ratios in relation to sales are gross profit ratio. Net profit ratio, operating ratio, expenses ratio etc. the profitability ratios in relation to investment are return on assets on investments, Return on Equity capital etc. Gross profit Ratio: Gross profit ratio is also known as gross margin. This is the ratio of gross profit to net sales. That is usually expressed as percentage. It is computed as follows: Gross profit Gross profit ratio=-------------------------x100 Sales Where, Gross profit= sales cost of goods sold.

32

In the case of trading concern, cost of goods sold could be equal to opening stock plus purchase plus all direct expenses charged to trading account minus closing stock. In case of manufacturing concerns, it could be equal to the sum of cost of materials consumed, usage, direct expenses and all factory or manufacturing expenses. Significance of Gross Profit Ratio:Gross profit Ratio indicates the margin of profit on sales. It is useful to ascertain whether the average percentage of mark-up on the goods sold is maintained. Gross Profit is the result of the relationship between price, sales volume and the cost. A change in the gross margin can be brought about by changes in any of these factors. A high Gross Profit Ratio is a sign of good management. An increase in Gross Profit ratio may be due to any of the following factors: Increase in the selling price without any corresponding increase in the cost of goods sold. Decrease in the cost of goods sold without any corresponding decrease in the selling price and Under valuation of opening stock or overvaluation of closing stock A relatively low Gross Profit ratio is a danger signal. The decrease in the Gross Profit Ratio may be due to following factors. Decrease in the selling price without corresponding decrease in the cost of goods sold. Increase in the cost of goods sold with out any corresponding increase in the selling price. Overvaluation of opening stock or under valuation of closing stock and Inability of the management to improve the volume of sales. Interpretation: As the gross profit is found by deducting cost of goods sold from the net sales, higher the gross profit ratio the better are the results. A low Gross Profit ratio indicates high cost of goods sold due to unfavorable purchases, polices, excessive competition etc. Net profit ratio: Net profit ratio is the ratio of net profit to sales. It is know as profit margin. It is usually expressed as percentage. It is calculated as follows: Net profit

33

Net profit ratio = ------------------------------------x 100 Sales Here, net profit is the balance of profit and loss account after adjusting interests and taxes and all non-operating expenses like less on sale of fixed assets, provision or containment liability etc. Significance of Net Profit Ratio: Net profit ratio indicates managements efficiency is manufacturing, administrating and selling the products. This is a measure of over all profitability. It includes what portion of sales is left to the owners after all expenses have been meet. This ratio also indicates the firms capacity to withstand adverse economic conditions. Return on Investment (ROI): The over all objective of a business is to earn a satisfactory return on capital invested. The management and owners are very much interested in the rate of earning on the capital employed. The rate of earning on capital employed(expressed as a percentage) is referred to as ROI. This is the over all profitability as follows: Profit before interest and tax ROI = ----------------------------------------------Capital employed Where capital employed is computed from the assets side. It will include: Fixed assets: Land and building Plant and machinery Furniture and fittings Motor vehicle Investment made in business Current assets: Cash Bank balance

34

Book debts Inventories Bills receivable Current liabilities: Sundry creditors Bills payable Bank over draft Interpretation: There cannot be any norms for this ratio. It depends on the industry. Return on Share Holders Fund: This is the ratio of net profit shareholders fund or net worth. It measures the profitability from the shareholders point of view. It is calculated as follows: Profit after interest and tax Return on Shareholders Fund = ------------------------------------------x100 Shareholders fund Here the profit is the profit after tax and preference dividend out of the profit left after tax. The preference dividend is paid first. The remaining profit is said to be available to equity shareholders. Equity shareholders fund includes equity capital and reserves and surplus. Cash Profit Ratio: The net profits of a firm are affected by the amount/method of depreciation charged. Further, depreciation being non-cash expense, it is better to calculate cash profit ratio. This ratio measures the relationship between cash generated from operations and the net sales. Cash profit Cash Profit Ratio = ------------------------------------------x100 Net sales

35

Where, cash profit = Net Profit +Depreciation Administrative Expense Ratio: The ratio which establishes the relationship between administrative expense and net sales is called administrative expense ratio. Administrative expense Administrative Expense Ratio = -------------------------------------------x100 Net sales Total Asset Turnover Ratio: It is relation between sales and total assets. This ratio is calculated to measure the efficiency with which a firm utilizes its assets. Sales Total Assets Turnover Ratio = -----------------------------------------Total Assets

o

Having a well-managed accounts payable team is almost as important to a business as a topnotch accounts receivable department. In both cases, you need to have effective management and deliberate work flow processes, but accounts payable needs to have extra controls for cash flow management and procedures to ensure maintenance of good supplier relations. The goals of accounts payable departments mainly relate to these two issues. Paying Early Vs On-Time

Effectively managed accounts payable departments will take advantage of creditors who offer discounts for early or on-time payment. But at the same time, you want to hold on to your money as long as possible in general so you do not want to just have a policy of paying all accounts payable early. Therefore, a major goal of most accounts payable departments is to carefully track
