2. INTRODUCTION OF PROJECTFinancial data summarized in the form of financial statements are of outstanding significance to the various parties interested in and concerned with (directly or indirectly) the operation and the financial growth of business concern. These financial documents act as beackonlight to the business executives in chalking out the various effective policies and in assessing the results of their efforts. In fact, these financial statements render a Yeomans service to owners, suppliers, govt. agencies, employees, customers and even common public in their respective fields of interest. But, however mere presentation of these statements does not serve the purpose of none of the aforesaid parties in any way. In other words, the significance of these statements lies not in their preparation but in their analysis and interpretation. Financial analysis is also known as interpretation of financial statements. It refers to the process of determining financial strengths and weakness of firm by establishing strategic relationship between the items of balance sheet, profit and loss account and other operative data. It is only by interpreting the balance sheet and the profit & loss account the figures appearing there are made to tell the story of actual progress and financial position of a business concern in a clear and simple language easily understood by the layman who is typically the most typical shareholder in our country. Financial analysis involves the division of facts on the basis of some definite plans, classifying them into classes on the basis of certain conditions and presenting them in most convenient, simple and understandable form. Not only this, Analysis attempts to study the relationship between different items of financial data and factors. The process of analysis may partake the varying types and normally it is classified into different categories on the basis of information used and on the basis of modus operandi of analysis. In this project, I have done the analysis on the basis of horizontal analysis, vertical analysis, and ratio analysis.

Chapter 3 Financial Analysis

21

FINANCIAL ANALYSISFinancial analysis refers to an assessment of the viability stability and profitability of a business sub-business or project. It is performed by professionals who reports using ratios that make use of information taken from financial statements and other reports. These reports are usually presented to top management as one of there bases in making business decisions. Based on there reports management may: Continue or discontinue its main operations or part of its business. Make or purchase certain products in the manufacture of its products. Acquire or rent/lease certain machines and equipments in the production of its goods. Issue stock pr negotiate for a bank loan to increase its working capital. Making decisions regarding investing or lending capital. Other decisions that allow management to make an informed selection on various alternatives in the conduct of its business.

GOALSFinancial analysis often assess the firms; PROFITABILITY: its ability to earn income and sustain growth in both short-term and long-term. A companys degree of profitability is usually based on the income statement, which reports on the companys results of operations. SOLVENCY: its ability to pay its obligation to creditors and other third parties in the long-term;22

LIQUIDITY: its ability to maintain positive cash flow, satisfying immediate obligations. STABILITY: the firms ability to remain in business in the long run, without having to sustain significant losses in the conduct of its business. Assessing a companys stability requires the use of the income statement and the balance sheet, as well as financial and non-financial indicator.

FINANCIAL RATIOS:The term accounting ratios is used to describe significant relationship between figures shown on a balance sheet, in a profit n loss account, in budgetary control system or in any other part of accounting or organizational accounting ratios thus shows the relationship between accounting data. Ratio can be found out by dividing one number by another. Ratios show how one number is related to another. It may be expressed in the form of co-efficient, percentage, proportion, or rate. For example the current asset and current liabilities of a business on particular date are$200,000 and $100,000 respectively. The current ratio would be expressed as C.A/C.L (i.e. 200,000/100,000) i.e. C.A is two times the C.L. ratio sometimes is expressed in the form of rate. For instance ratio between two numeric facts, usually over a period of time, e.g. stock turnover is three times a year. Financial ratios are useful indicators of a firm's performance and financial situation. Most ratios can be calculated from information provided by the financial statements. Financial ratios can be used to analyze trends and to compare the firm's financials to those of other firms. In some cases, ratio analysis can predict future bankruptcy.

Classification of Accounting Ratios:LIQUIDITY RATIOS: Liquidity ratios provide information about a firm's ability to meet its short-term financial obligations. They are of particular interest to those extending short-term credit to the

23

firm. Two frequently-used liquidity ratios are the current ratio (or working capital ratio) and the quick ratio. The current ratio is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities: Current Assets Current Ratio = Current Liabilities 2006-07 1.15 T-1 Short-term creditors prefer a high current ratio since it reduces their risk. Shareholders may prefer a lower current ratio so that more of the firm's assets are working to grow the business. A current ratio of 2:1 or more is considered satisfactory. Typical values for the current ratio vary by firm and industry. For example, firms with less than 2:1 current ratio may be doing well as compared to firms with current ratio more than 2:1. As current assets can decline in value but liabilities are not subject to any decline in value. One drawback of the current ratio is that inventory may include many items that are difficult to liquidate quickly and that have uncertain liquidation values. The quick ratio is an alternative measure of liquidity that does not include inventory in the current assets. The quick ratio is defined as follows: Current Assets - Inventory Quick Ratio = Current Liabilities The current assets used in the quick ratio are cash, accounts receivable, and notes receivable. These assets essentially are current assets less inventory. The quick ratio often is referred to as the acid test and a ratio of 1:1 is considered satisfactory. Quick ratio YEAR 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2007-08 1.28 2008-09 1.20

25

Current ratio of HAVELLS is more or less the same in each year. The company is able to maintain a current ratio of more than 1 which shows the availability of current assets in rupees is more than current claims against them. Quick ratio of HAVELLS indicates that company is improving its short term financial position with time. A quick ratio of 0.81 in year 2008-09 is a clear indicator of that.

SOLVENCY RATIOSThe Debt-To-Equity ratio is total debt divided by total equity: Total Debt Debt-to-Equity Ratio = Total Equity

Debt ratios depend on the classification of long-term leases and on the classification of some items as long-term debt or equity. The times interest earned ratio indicates how well the firm's earnings can cover the interest payments on its debt. This ratio also is known as the interest coverage and is calculated as follows: Interest Coverage EBIT Interest Coverage = Interest Charges

Where, EBIT = Earnings before Interest and Taxes The Proprietary ratio shows the extent to which the total assets have been financed by the proprietor. Higher the ratio, greater the satisfaction for lenders and creditors. = Shareholders fund Total assets

Solvency This ratio determines the ability of firm to meet its long term obligations. Debt equity ratio of Havells has decreased over the years and is low due to negligible amount of loan on Havells as compare to its equity, which indicates high degree of protection enjoyed by its lenders. Though low proprietary ratio is alarming for creditors as they may have to loose in the event of liquidation. But, still it is increasing with every coming year. Interest coverage ratio has increased year by year, showing the number of times interest charges are covered by funds that are ordinarily available for their payment. Havells maintains a strong financial position in this case.

28

PROFITABLITY RATIO Gross profit ratio: Gross profit ratio may be indicated to what extent the selling prices of goods per unit may be reduced without incurring losses on operations. It reflects efficiency with which a firm produces its products. As the gross profit is found by deducting cost of goods sold from net sales, higher the gross profit better it is. There is no standard GP ratio for evaluation. It may vary from business to business. However, the gross profit earned should be sufficient to recover all operating expenses and to build up reserves after paying all fixed interest charges and dividends. Causes / reasons of increase or decrease in gross profit ratio: It should be observed that an increase in the GP ratio may be due to the following factors. 1. Increase in the selling price of goods sold without any corresponding increase in the cost of goods sold. 2. Decrease in cost of goods sold without corresponding decrease in selling price. 3. Omission of purchase invoices from accounts. 4. Under valuation of opening stock or overvaluation of closing stock. On the other hand, the decrease in the gross profit ratio may be due to the following factors. 1. Decrease in the selling price of goods, without corresponding decrease in the cost of goods sold. 2. Increase in the cost of goods sold without any increase in selling price. 3. Unfavorable purchasing or markup policies. 4. Inability of management to improve sales volume, or omission of sales. 5. Over valuation of opening stock or under valuation of closing stock

29

Hence, an analysis of gross profit margin should be carried out in the light of the information relating to purchasing, mark-ups and markdowns, credit and collections as well as merchandising policies. Gross profit Gross profit ratio = Net sales

NET PROFIT RATIO: NP ratio is used to measure the overall profitability and hence it is very useful to proprietors. The ratio is very useful as if the net profit is not sufficient, the firm shall not be able to achieve a satisfactory return on its investment. This ratio also indicates the firm's capacity to face adverse economic conditions such as price competition, low demand, etc. Obviously, higher the ratio the better is the profitability. But while interpreting the ratio it should be kept in mind that the performance of profits also be seen in relation to investments or capital of the firm and not only in relation to sales.

PROFITABILITY POSTITON OF HAVELLS Profitability ratio increased in 2007-08 due to acquisition of Chinese firms that helped in manufacturing products at a lower cost. However, the increasing cost of other raw materials and global slowdown in 2008-09 has again brought the profitability ratio down. In HAVELLS profit are tendered to measure management efficiency and risk. In HAVELLS new innovative different marketing strategies boost up the sale of the company which helps in the increase of profit. Example,Advertising campaign during IPL. ACTIVITY RATIOS These are concerned with measuring efficiency in asset management. And so they are also called efficiency or assets utilization ratios. An activity ratio may be defined as a test of the relationship between cost of sales and the various assets of the firm. The greater is the rate of turnover or conversion, the more efficient is the utilization / management. Depending upon the various types of assets, there are various types of activity ratios. ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO This ratio is also known as investment turnover ratio. It is based on the relationship between the cost of goods sold and assets/ investment of a firm. Depending upon the different concepts of assets employed, there are many variants of this ratio. INVENTORY (STOCK) TURNOVER RATIO This ratio indicates the number of times inventory is replaced during the year. It measures the relationship between the cost of goods sold and the inventory level. This ratio measures how quickly the inventory is sold showing efficient inventory management. In this concern the inventory turnover ratio is increasing, which shows utilization of inventories in generating sales is good. The inventory turnover ratio is high in case of HAVELLS.

assets turnover is quite high in HAVELLS but efficiency is still a matter of concern as it has fallen as compared to previous year. OPERATING RATIO Operating ratio shows the operational efficiency of the business. Lower operating ratio shows higher operating profit and vice versa. An operating ratio ranging between 75% and 80% is generally considered as standard for manufacturing concerns. This ratio is considered to be a yardstick of operating efficiency but it should be used cautiously because it may be affected by a number of uncontrollable factors beyond the control of the firm. Moreover, in some firms, non-operating expenses from a substantial part of the total expenses and in such cases operating ratio may give misleading results. EARNINGS PER SHARE (EPS) RATIO: The earnings per share is a good measure of profitability and when compared with EPS of similar companies, it gives a view of the comparative earnings or earnings power of the firm. EPS ratio calculated for a number of years indicates whether or not the earning power of the company has increased. DIVIDEND PAYOUT RATIO: The payout ratio and the retained earning ratio are the indicators of the amount of earnings that have been ploughed back in the business. The lower the payout ratio, the higher will be the amount of earnings ploughed back in the business and vice versa. A lower payout ratio or higher retained earnings ratio means a stronger financial position of the company. Year 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09

RETURN ON INVESTMENT This ratio is more meaningful to the equity shareholders who are interested to know profits earned by the company and those profits which can be made available to pay dividends to them. Interpretation of the ratio is similar to the interpretation of return on shareholder's investments and higher the ratio better is.

G-14/G-15 RECEIVABLES (DEBTORS) TURNOVER RATIO AND AVERAGE COLLECTION PERIOD The second major activity ratio is the receivables or debtors turnover ratio. And closely related to this ratio is the average collection period. It shows how quickly receivables or debtors are converted into cash. In other words this ratio is a test of liquidity of the debtors of a firm which can be examined in two ways:(i)

DEBTORS / RECEIVABLES TURNOVER = Sales/Avg. Debtor

G-17 This ratio indicates the speed with which debtors/accounts receivable are being collected. A turnover ratio of 42.35 signifies that debtors get converted into cash 42.35 times during the financial year 2007-08 and 28.83 times during 2008-09. And the debtors got collected in 8.5 days in 2007-08 which is quite early as compared to 2008-09 in which they got collected in 12.5 days. This ratio shows that there is high turnover in 2007-08 and the collection period is also less which means that the liquidity of debtors is better and there is prompt payment on the part of debtors. But in 2008-09 the turnover has decreased and the collection period has increased which means there is a delayed payment by debtors.
