RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio Analysis can be defined as the study and interpretation of relationships between various financial variables, by investor or lenders. It is a quantitative investment technique used for comparing a company’s financial performance to the market in general. A change in these ratios helps to bring about a change in the way a company works. It helps to identify areas where the management needs change.
6
1. Liquidity Ratios: These ratios are calculated just to analyze the short term
financial position of the company. An important concern about any company is its liquidity or to meet its current obligations.
Liquidity exists when the company satisfy its maturing short debts. Liquidity is important in carrying out a business. Liquidity ratios are of following types:
Current ratio: It is used to appraise the ability of the company to satisfy its current debts out of the current assets. Generally, 2 to 1 current ratio is considered the satisfactory minimum.
Current ratio= current assets/current liabilities
Quick ratio/Acid test ratio: The quick ratio is the stringent test to liquidity. It is founded by dividing the most liquid current assets by current liabilities. Inventory is not included since the length of time needed to convert to cash is long. Prepaid expenses are also not an element since they are not convertible in cash. General acceptable ratio is 1 to 1. Quick ratio=quick assets/current liabilities Quick assets=current assets-stock-prepaid expenses
Absolute liquid ratio: Ratios based on cash flow from operations give a more direct indication of a company’s ability to generate sufficient cash to satisfy cash to satisfy predicate cash requirements. General acceptable ratio is 0.5 to 1 Absolute liquid ratio=absolute liquid assets/current liabilities Absolute liquid assets=quick assets-debtors-bills receivable
2. Efficiency Ratios: These are those ratios that are typically used to analyze how
well a company uses its assets and liabilities internally. These ratios look at the internal working of the company. In other words efficiency ratios measure the quality of a business' receivables and how efficiently it uses and controls its assets, how effectively the firm is paying suppliers, and whether the business is overtrading or under trading on its equity (using borrowed funds).Efficiency ratios are of following types:
Inventory turnover ratio: This ratio indicates the number of time the stock has been turned over during the period and evaluates the efficiency with which a firm is able to manage its inventory. This ratio indicates whether investment in stock is
7
within proper limit or not. This ratio is a relationship between the cost of goods sold during a particular period of time and the cost of average inventory during a particular period. It is expressed in number of times. Inventory turnover ratio= Cost of goods sold / Average inventory
Inventory conversion period: It measures the number of days or months a company required to convert its stock into sales. Inventory conversion period=365/ Inventory turnover ratio
Debtors turnover ratio: It indicates the velocity of debt collection of a firm. In simple words it indicates the number of times average debtors (receivable) are turned over during a year. Trade debtors are expected to be converted into cash within a short period of time and are included in current assets. Hence, the liquidity position of concern to pay its short term obligations in time depends upon the quality of its trade debtors. Debtors Turnover Ratio = Net Credit Sales /Average Debtors
Average collection period: The average collection period ratio represents the average number of days for which a firm has to wait before its debtors are converted into cash. Average collection period=365/ Debtors Turnover Ratio
Creditors turnover ratio: It signifies the credit period enjoyed by the firm in paying creditors. Accounts payable include both sundry creditors and bills payable. Same as debtors turnover ratio, creditors turnover ratio can be calculated in two forms, creditors turnover ratio and average payment period.
Creditors Turnover Ratio = Credit Purchase / Average Trade Creditors
Average payment period: It gives the average credit period enjoyed from the creditors. It can be calculated using the following formula: Average Payment Period =365/ creditors turnover ratio
Working capital turnover ratio: It indicates the velocity of the utilization of net working capital. This ratio represents the number of times the working capital is turned over in the course of year and is calculated as follows:
Working Capital Turnover Ratio = Cost of goods sold / Net Working Capital
8
3. Solvency ratios: Solvency ratios are measures to assess a company’s ability to
meet its long-term obligations and thereby remain solvent and avoid bankruptcy. It is a measure of a company's ability to service debts, expressed as a percentage. A high solvency ratio indicates a healthy company, while a low ratio indicates the opposite. A low solvency ratio further indicates likelihood of default. Different industries have different standards as to what qualifies as an acceptable solvency ratio, but, in general, a ratio of 20% or higher is considered healthy. Potential lenders may take the solvency ratio into account when considering making further loans.
Debt-to-equity ratio: It is a financial ratio indicating the relative proportion of shareholders' equity and debt used to finance a company's assets. The Debt to Equity Ratio measures how much money a company should safely be able to borrow over long periods of time. It does this by comparing the company's total debt and dividing it by the amount of owner's equity. Debt to Equity Ratio= debt/shareholder’s equity
Debt=long term loans + debentures
Funded debt to total capitalisation ratio: It evaluates percentage of debts in the total funds.
Funded debt to total capitalisation ratio=debt/long term loans + equity
Proprietary ratio: This ratio indicates the long-term or future solvency position of the business. It shows the relationship between equity and total assets.
Proprietary ratio=equity/total assets
Solvency ratio: This ratio shows the relationship between total outsider’s liabilities and total assets.
Solvency ratio= total outsider’s liabilities/ total assetsOr
Solvency ratio= 1- Proprietary ratio
Fixed assets to shareholder’s funds: This ratio finds the relationship between fixed assets and shareholder’s funds. Fixed assets to shareholder’s funds.
Fixed assets to shareholder’s funds= fixed assets/ shareholder’s funds
Interest coverage ratio: This ratio relates the fixed interest charges to the income earned by the business. It indicates whether the business has earned sufficient profits to pay periodically the interest charges.
Interest Coverage Ratio = Net Profit before Interest and Tax / Fixed Interest Charges
9
4. Profitability ratios: Profitability ratios are used to assess a business' ability to
generate earnings as compared to expenses over a specified time period. These tutorials define the ratios and walk you through the calculations, including where on the financial statements the numbers can be found. These ratios broadly can be categorised in two types:
o General profitability ratios :
Gross profit ratio: The gross profit ratio indicates how much of each sale available to meet expenses and profits after merely paying for the goods that were sold. This interactive tutorial explains the gross profit ratio by walking you through the steps, including where Sales and Cost of Goods Sold are on the Income Statement. It lets you use your own numbers -- great for checking homework answers!
The gross profit ratio= (Gross profit / Net sales) * 100
Operating profit ratio: This ratio shows the relationship between operating profit and net sales.
Operating profit ratio= (operating profit/ net sales)*100
Net profit ratio: This ratio finds the relationship between net sales and net profit.
Net profit ratio= (net profit/ net sales)*100
Operating Ratio: A ratio that shows the efficiency of a company's management by comparing operating expense to net sales. The smaller the ratio, the greater the organization's ability to generate profit if revenues decrease. When using this ratio, however, investors should be aware that it doesn't take debt repayment or expansion into account.
Operating ratio= (operating cost/net sales)*100
Operating cost= operating expenses+ cost of goods sold
o Overall profitability ratios:
10
Return on investment: It is the ratio of net profit to share holder's investment. It is the relationship between net profit (after interest and tax) and share holder's/proprietor's fund. This ratio establishes the profitability from the share holders' point of view. The ratio is generally calculated in percentage.
Return on investment (ROI) = Net Profit / Shareholder’s funds * 100
Return on Equity (ROE): In real sense, ordinary shareholders are the real owners of the company. They assume the highest risk in the company. (Preference share holders have a preference over ordinary shareholders in the payment of dividend as well as capital. Preference share holders get a fixed rate of dividend irrespective of the quantum of profits of the company). The rate of dividends varies with the availability of profits in case of ordinary shares only. Thus ordinary shareholders are more interested in the profitability of a company and the performance of a company should be judged on the basis of return on equity capital of the company. Return on equity capital which is the relationship between profits of a company and its equity.
Return on Equity = (Net profit – preference dividend)/Equity Shareholders Fund * 100
Return on Capital employed: The prime objective of making investments in any business is to obtain satisfactory return on capital invested. Hence, the return on capital employed is used as a measure of success of a business in realizing this objective. Return on capital employed establishes the relationship between the profit and the capital employed. It indicates the percentage of return on capital employed in the business and it can be used to show the overall profitability and efficiency of the business.
Return on capital employed = (Adjusted NP/ Capital Employed)*100
Adjusted net profit = PBIT + Non operating expenses – Non operating income
Capital employed = Current assets + Fixed assets + Investment inside business

So Liquidity position of company was not so strong in 2009 and it further deteriorated in 2010.
Interpretation of Profitability ratios of company shows that profit percentage of the company increased from 2009 to 2010 but decreased in gross profit ratio. Increase in the profits percentage is not very high. Gross profit has decreased from 101.18% to 100.87%. Net profit has increased from 11.93% to 10.71%. Return on investment and equity have increased from 2009 to 2010. However there is high fall in the return on capital employed. The profits and total income of the company are also increasing. This means that expenses of the company might have decreased. But operating ratio of the company is increasing. It is almost above 85% in both years which is not favourable for company.
Turnover ratios of the company are showing very good performance of the company. Inventory turnover ratio of the company has increased from 15.06271 to 17.948. A lower Inventory ratio means less efficient conversion of stocks. Similarly Inventory conversion period of the company decreased from 25 days in 2009 to 21 days in 2010.
Working capital turnover ratio of company has increased. Higher WCTR indicates efficient utilization of working capital. Whereas declining WCTR means inefficient management. WCTR of the company has increased to 5.558 from 4.686 times.
Even the solvency ratios of the company show an improving performance of the company from 2009 to 2010. Interest coverage ratio of the company has increased to 3.247 from 2.962.So this much increase in Interest coverage ratio means less and less risk for long-term creditors. Company’s long term debt is decreasing as compared to the total capital. Even, its total liabilities has not increased much as compared to its total assets. As performance of the company is improving so investors can invest money in this company with more assurance. The solvency has increased from 2009 to 2010.
21

Interpretations:
They are getting more dividend from last years. They sell some of their fixed assets &
investments. Profits on fixed assets are less as compared to last year, but the profit on
investment is more. Cash flow statement depicts that the receivables are increased but as
compared to last month it is 50% decreasing so that is why L& T sales their fixed assets to
earn income & revenues.
Cash flow from operating activities:
Cash flow from operating activities is 73% more in 2009-2010 i.e Rs 5482.75
crore & in 2008-2009 is Rs 1478 crore it is just because of profit of sale of investment is
approximately more than 100% in 2008-2009 its 94.6 crore but in 2009-2010 its Rs 1254
crore.
Cash used in investing activities:
Cash used in investing activities in 09-10 Rs 6200 as compared to 2008-2009 i.e
Rs 4429 it is because of more investment in subsidiaries & Joint Venture as well as
purchase of long term investment is maximum i.e Rs 488 crore in 2009-2010 Rs 3043
Crore invested in purchase of current investment it is approximately 500 times more in
09-10
The reason behind cash flow used in investing activity rather than cash flow from
investing activity is:
1) Dividend received from other investment is approx. 6% less than previous year.
2) Interest received on loan & advances is also less it is 20% less than last year i.e 08-09
Cash flow from financing activities:
Cash flow from financing activities is Rs 1245 crore it is because of fresh
issue of share capital including ESOP schemes to his employees L& T raise Rs 2132
crore from this scheme . L& T also repay almost Rs 587 crore of long term borrowing
thats why their cash flow from financing activity in 09-10 is less than as compared to
08-09.
31
As well as dividend paid to shareholder is more than last year. In 09-10 is Rs
