RATIO ANALYSIS

1. RATIO ANALYSIS
Ratio analysis is a widely used of financial analysis. It is defined as the systematic use of
ratio to interpret the financial statements so that strengths and weakness of a firm as well
as its historical performance and current financial condition can be determined. The term
ratio refers to the numerical or quantitative relationship between two items variables.
The alternative, methods of expressing items, which are related to each other , are for
purposes of financial analysis, referred to as ratio analysis. It should be noted that
computing the ratio does not add any information not already inherent in the above
figures of profits and sales. What ratios do is that they reveal the relationship in a more
meaningful way so as to enable us to draw conclusions from them.
The rational of ratio analysis lies in the fact that it makes related information comparable.
A single figure by itself has no meaning but when expressed in terms of a related figure,
it yields significant inferences. For instance, the fact that net profits of a firm amount to
say, Rs. 10 lacks throws no light on its adequacy or otherwise. Figure of net profit has to
be considered in relation to other variables. How does it stand relation to sales? What
does it represent by way of return on total assets used or total capital employed? If
therefore net profits are shown in terms of their relationship with items such as sales,
assets, capital employed equity capital and so on; meaningful conclusions can be drawn
regarding their adequacy.
Ratio is very useful to for grasping the message of the financial statement and
understanding them. It helps to enlarge and understand the financial health and travel of
the business, it past performance makes it possible to forecast about future state of the
business. The ratio use to measure the effectiveness of the employment of resources is
termed as Activity Ratio or Turnover Ratio.

Trend ratio involve a comparison of the ratio of a firm over time, that is present
ratio are compared with past ratio for the same firm. The comparison of the profitability
of a firm, say year 1 though 5 is an illustration of a trend ratio. Trend ratio indicate the
direction of change in the performance-improvement, deterioration or constancy-over the
years.

Interpretation:
The ideal level of current ratio is 2:1.we shown too much higher ratio its good for the
company. Higher the current ratio, the larger is the amount of rupees available per rupees
of current liabilities, the more is the firms ability to meet current obligation and greater
is safety of fund of short term creditors.
Companys current ratio is far better than its ideal level. So kribhco may take
some liabilities like bank overdraft, its not necessary but if management want. Overall
higher the better for company prestige

Interpretation:
Ideal level of this ratio is 1:1.compare to current ratio stock is deducted from current
assets because we cant convert stock into cash in short period of time. we can predict the
position more accurately compare to current ratio, Higher the ratio higher the company
liquidity position.
We can see that Quick ratio of the year 2008 is 3.28:1 which is lesser then all previous
years indicate companys bad liquidity position.

Interpretation:
The D/E ratio is an important tool of financial analysis to appraise the financial
structure of a firm. It has important implication from the view point of the creditors,
owners, and the firm itself. The ratio reflect the relative contribution of creditors and
owners of business in its financing. A high ratio shows a large share of financing by
the creditors of the firm, a low ratio implies a small claim of creditors.
We can see that in above ratio that in 2004 ratio is 0.51 it implies that every
rupee of outside liabilities, the firm has two rupees owners capital. in 2005 ratio
decrease to 0.37 after every year its decreasing 0.22 and 0.20 respectively.

Interpretation:
This ratio shows a relation between sales and inventory. It shows the no of time an
inventory is converted in to sales over a year. Altogether the inventory turnover ratio
means lesser the stock as compare to sales where as lesser the inventory turnover ratio
means more inventory in stock.
As we can see that in the year 2006-07 ratio is 16 % that is higher than 2004-05 &
2005-06 that is 11 % and 9 % respectively and also 2007-08 is 12 %. That means
investment in inventory is increase over the last 2 years, which gives bad indication and
in 2007-08 is good indication because investment is increase from 2004 to 2006 year.The
position of year shows a downward trend, which means that the enterprise is investing
more in its inventories as compare to its sale. Taking 1998 -99 has shown a 7.63 % of
down fall whereas the investment in inventory for the same year has shown a mere 4.19
% of downfall. This means there is proportionately more fall in sales in inventory. A
similar position follows in the year 1999 - 00 and 2000 - 01. In 1999 -00 the decrease in
sale 11.45 % where the inventory is increase with 23.17 %. In 2000 - 01 the pies is
decrease with 0.85 % and inventory is increase with 39.52 %. This shows that the
enterprise is fail to control the inventory which is not good for enterprise.
Here the inventory ratio decreases during the year here the inventory turnover
ratio decrease from 8.86 times to 6.31 times. This is not a good sign for the enterprise.
The number of days the inventory is held is increase. Presently it is about 57 days Where
as it was about its days in 1997 -'98 so we can say that the enterprise is suffering for its
position. The ratio is not -satisfactory.

Interpretation: This ratio indicates the efficiency with which current asset turn into
sales. A higher ratio implies by and large more efficient use of fund. Thus a high turnover
ratio indicates reduced lock-up of fund in current assets. An analysis of this ratio over a
period of time reflects working capital management of a firm.
Current assets turn over ratio is good for the years of 2005-06, 2006-07, 2007-08 that is
0.88:1, 0.85:1 and 0.75:1 respectively. For the year 2004-05 it was decrease because
companys current assets are higher than its liability.
But we can say that the companys position is better then the last few years that is 200506 and 2006-07.

Interpretation:
The cash ratio is perhaps the most stringent measure of liquidity indeed. One can argue
that it is overly stringent lack of immediate can may not matter it. The firm can starch its
payment or borrow many of short notice cash and bank balance and short term
marketable security and liable assets of firm financial analysis looks at cash ratio which is
define.
Management has to maintain a level of cash ratio so that cash is required urgently
they can get it. Too high level of cash loss the opportunity to earn interest on that capital.
We can see that Cash ratio is initially high in the year of 2004-05 that is 6.18.
But its start decreasing from next year. it was
current year is 2.67:1 thought its cash and bank balance is high. This level is well and
good for the company.

Interpretation:
The analysis of the debtors turnover ratio supplements the information regarding the
liquidity of one item of current asset of the firm. The ratio measure how rapidly debts are
collected. A higher ratio is indicator of shorter time lag between credit sales and cash
sales.
As we can see in the year 2007-08 debtors turnover ratio is highest. But for the year
2006-07 this ratio is 16.49: 1 which is also higher then the 2005-06 & 2004-05. So we
can say that company might face some problem in collecting the money in the year of
2005-06. But the result is quit well.

Interpretation:
It measures how long it takes to collect amounts from debtors. The actual collection
period can be compared with the stated credit terms of the company. If it is longer than
those terms, then this indicates some insufficiency in the procedures for collection debts.
This ratio indicates the speed with which debtors/accounts receivable are being
collected. The higher the turnover ratio and the shorter the average collection period, the
better is the trade credit management and the better is the liquidity of debtors. On the
other hand, low turnover ratio and long collection period reflect delayed payment by
debtors. In general, therefore, short collection period (high turnover ratio) is preferable.
Here we can see that for the year 2007-08 debtors conversion period is 266
days, which is higher compare to others. But here we can see that for the last three years
company receive the money within their decided well specified period. Here for the year
2004-05 Debtors conversion period is less. But for the year 2005-06 debtors conversion
period increase by 23 days and than increase year by year. Company need to control
receivable management.

Interpretation:
Inventory stock turnover ratio measure how quickly inventory is sold. It is a test of
efficient inventory management. To judge whether the ratio of a firm is satisfactory or
not, higher ratio shows efficient use of inventory.
As we can see from the graph that in the year 2004-05 ratio is 17.50: 1 which higher then
all the previous years, so we can say that inventory is converted into finished goods
highest in this year which indicate the highest efficient use of the inventory. But in case
of Kribhco the Ratio is decreased year by year.

net profit
Interpretation:
The net profit margin is indicate of managments ability to operate the business
with sufficient success not only to recover from revenues of the period, the cost of
merchandise or services, the expenses of operating the business and the cost of the
borrowed funds, but also to leave a margin of reasonable compensation to the owners for
providing their capital at risk. The ratio of net profit to sales essential expresses the cost
price effectiveness of the operation.
In 2004 companys profit is 15% and after 4 also they maintain this profit
margin.so company has stable profit margin in this 4 years.

Interpretation:
Gross profit is the result of the relationship between prices, sales volume and
costs. A change in the gross margin can be brought about by changes in any of these
factors. The gross margin represent the limit beyond which fall in sales prices are
outside the tolerance limit.
In this company in 2004-05 gross profit margin is 29%,its good for the
every company, but after one year its was fallen down to 18%. In 2007-08 margin
was very low compare to previous year.

capital employed
Interpretation:
Here the profit related to the total capital employed. The term capital employed
refers to long term funds supplied by the creditors and owners of the firm. It can be
computed in two ways. First, It is equal to non-current liabilities plus owners of the firm.
The Higher the ratio, the more efficient is the use of capital employed.
in 2004-05 ratio of capital employed is 3.4% its better than other year. In
2007-08 ratio was decrease to 1.6%. its was half compare to 2004-05.

Interpretation:
Inventory conversion period means, time taken to convert raw material in to finished
goods to goods sold. It indicates how effectively and efficiently an inventory is
controlled. Lesser the inventory conversion period more efficient and effective use of
inventory.
Here we can see that for the year 2004-05 inventory conversion periods is 21 days which
is less then the rest of year. As we can see from the graph for the year 2007-08 inventory
conversion period is 42 days which is highest among the collected data. But as year
passing it increases. And we can find that it was maximum for the year 2007-08. So we
can say that they are able to substantially increase the inventory holding period from 21
days to 42 days. It may happen because the average inventory holding period has been
increase and also the cost of goods sold decrease.

Interpretation:
Raw material conversion period indicate the smoothness of the production or we can say
that how much time taken by the production to convert raw material in to finished good.
Smaller the raw material conversion period higher the efficiency of production.
In this case we can say that for the year of 2004-05 and 2005-06 raw material conversion
periods are 51 days and 49 days respectively which is lower then the others years. Lowest
conversion period is recorded for the year of 2004-05 because in this year raw material
inventories is less and raw material consumption is highest. But as we can see that in the
year 2006-07 & 2007-08 raw material inventories increase dramatically compare to
previous year and consumption per day was reduced so here raw material conversion
period is increase but we can control this by holding the inventories lower and increase
the raw material consumption per day.

Interpretation:
It indicates the work-in-process inventory (can say semi-finished good) converted in to
finished goods. Its also contain the production cost holding by it.
Here we can say that for the year 2004-05 due to high work in process inventory. Work in
process conversion period is low even though the cost of production is too high compare
to others. For next years it was decreased by day to day because, work in process
inventory is high compare to all previous year. Work in process conversion period can be
controlled by keeping work in process inventory low.
But in case of Kribhco the Work-in-process conversion periods are not a single day r say
it is minor because in Kribhco the duration in convert Semi finished goods to finished
goods is very less

Conclusion
From the study of ratio analysis, I have found that it is a very difficult task to
maintain ideal ratios in such a big organization. There are various factors
affecting while managing ratio analysis like credit policy, inventory management
system , production cycle etc. But it is very important to manage it every
situation.
Fertilizer is a product whose price is highly controlled by Government. of India
Where by it may not be easily possible to increase the sales. Because the product
is sold as per Government of India allocated area. But efforts can surely be made
to reduce the cost factors. It is suggested that cost may highly be control through
effective budgeting and continuous analysis there off.
IFFCO playing a big role in deciding price factors, so kribhco cant set its own
price and sale to directly to farmers
Kribhcos current ratio is far more better than its ideal ratio, so in the future if
kribhco can borrow some money from the market, if Its necessary.
Kribhcos net profit is almost 15% every year its very good for the company
whos main objective is to not earn a profit
In Kribhco all financial year have the double current assets compare to current
liabilities & all years satisfy sound financial condition requirement & more
liquidity of company indicate safe and sound position.
Inventory conversion period has continuously decreased from the year 2004-05 to
2007-08.
KRIBHCO have fix inventory management system.
64
www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com
Liquidity position of a company can be ensured by the current ratio, it can be said
that if the ratio is 2: 1 then the companys liquidity position is sound. In the year
2004-05 only the company liquidity position is good.
KRIBHCO strongly follows the credit policy but Receivable period
is more
65
www.final-yearproject.com | www.finalyearthesis.com
Suggestions:
If KRIBHCO can directly contact to the farmers and sell them
without interfere of government or IFFCO. So it can increase its
profit margin
In case of KRIBHCO they need to change their credit policy, because in this case
we can see that the average creditors credit period is 30 days in raw materials and
10 days in case of spares. Where as debtors credit period (Bills receivable) is for
45 days. Here debtors credit period is more then creditors credit period which
need to be modified.
It is possible because KRIBHCO is the only company in SAARC countries who
are producing Urea and also have biggest Ammonia plant all over India. So we
can say they have the monopoly in urea and also they are the market leader in
case of Ammonia. So either they can increase the period of creditors credit
period or decease the debtors credit period, they can shorten collection period.
KRIBHCO have the 60:40 ratio of credit to cash sales which also can be modified
by taking advance payment from the customer and it can be used to maintain
liquidity for daily cash need raw material conversion period.
Net operating cycle period was increase which need to be maintain as low as
possible by reduce raw material conversion period, debtors conversion period ,
finish good conversion period ect. It helps to keep down the Net operating cycle

Limitations of Study:
During the study of this project some limitation I have found which are as below,
This research is based on the secondary data and during the study of working
capital there are so many data required from various department which was not
disclosed by the respective department, for example budget of the current
financial year.
Some approx data provided from the various departments for the calculation
purpose, e.g. Carrying cost, Ordering cost ECT, inter firm comparision which
were not calculated by the respective departments.
Available information for the study of ratio analysis is limited,
