EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The research is on the basis of A Study Of Audit And Report Of


Standard Auto Agencies. A financial audit is conducted to provide
an opinion whether "financial statements" (the information being
verified) are stated in accordance with specified criteria. Normally,
the criteria are international accounting standards, although
auditors may conduct audits of financial statements prepared using
the cash basis or some other basis of accounting appropriate for the
organisation. In providing an opinion whether financial statements
are fairly stated in accordance with accounting standards, the
auditor gathers evidence to determine whether the statements
contain material errors or other misstatement.

The sampling design being used here is sample random sampling.


The sample size is 100 has been used. Thus this report seeks to
utilize primary research, through structured questionnaires and
secondary method involves data collection though magazines and
websites.

The tools being used for analysis and interpretation are Percentage
methods, Graphs & Pie Chart.

INTRODUCTION OF THE
TOPIC
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

INTRODUCTUION

The audit report is a key deliverable which shows the end results of
the entire audit process. The users of financial statements like
Investors, Lenders, Customers, and others base their decisions and
plans on audit reports of any enterprise. An audit report is always
critical to influencing the perceived value of any financial
statement’s audit.

The auditor should be careful in issuing the audit report as there is


are a large number of people placing reliance on such report and
taking decisions accordingly. The report should be issued by being
unbiased and objective in discharging the functions.

Audit is the examination or inspection of various books of accounts


by an auditor followed by physical checking of inventory to make
sure that all departments are following documented system of
recording transactions. It is done to ascertain the accuracy of
financial statements provided by the organisation.

Audit can be done internally by employees or heads of a particular


department and externally by an outside firm or an independent
auditor. The idea is to check and verify the accounts by an
independent authority to ensure that all books of accounts are done
in a fair manner and there is no misrepresentation or fraud that is
being conducted.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

Opinion in an Audit Report

There are primarily two kinds of opinions issued by an auditor in his


/ her audit report:

 Unmodified Opinion (also called Unqualified report)


 Modified Opinion (also called Qualified report)

1. Unmodified Opinion
 Issued for any audit where the auditor is satisfied that the
financial statements present a true and fair view of the
operations and transactions in an enterprise during the period.
 An audit report with an Unmodified Opinion is also known as a
‘Clean Report’. An Unmodified report develops confidence
among users of Financial statements and annual reports of an
enterprise.
 It provides an impression that the financial statements are
reasonably free from any misstatements and results as
appearing there are true and fair.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

2. Modified Opinion

 Whenever the auditor has specific findings during his / her


audit and concludes that an Unmodified Opinion cannot be
issued due to the nature of findings, a Modified Opinion is
issued in the audit report.
 There are two basic reasons due to which an auditor concludes
on issuing a Modified Opinion:
 Based on the audit and evidence, finds out that the financial
statements contain a certain degree of material misstatements.
 Unable to obtain sufficient and appropriate evidences to
conclude that the financial statements are free from material
misstatements.
 There are three kinds of modified opinions which are issued
according to the findings and circumstances:
 A. Adverse Opinion
 B. Qualified Opinion
 C. Disclaimer of Opinion

Types of audits

In general, an audit is an investigation of an existing system, report,


or entity. There are a number of types of audits that can be
conducted, including the following

 Compliance audit. This is an examination of the policies


and procedures of an entity or department, to see if it is in
compliance with internal or regulatory standards. This audit is most
commonly used in regulated industries or educational institutions.

 Construction audit. This is an analysis of the costs


incurred for a specific construction project. Activities may include
an analysis of the contracts granted to contractors, prices paid,
overhead costs allowed for reimbursement, change orders, and the
timeliness of completion. The intent is to ensure that the costs
incurred for a project were reasonable.

 Financial audit. This is an analysis of the fairness of the


information contained within an entity's financial statements. It is
conducted by a CPA firm, which is independent of the entity under
review. This is the most commonly conducted type of audit.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

 Information systems audit. This involves a review of


the controls over software development, data processing, and access
to computer systems. The intent is to spot any issues that could
impair the ability of IT systems to provide accurate information to
users, as well as to ensure that unauthorized parties do not have
access to the data.

 Investigative audit. This is an investigation of a specific


area or individual when there is a suspicion of inappropriate or
fraudulent activity. The intent is to locate and remedy control
breaches, as well as to collect evidence in case charges are to be
brought against someone.

 Operational audit. This is a detailed analysis of the goals,


planning processes, procedures, and results of the operations of a
business. The audit may be conducted internally or by an external
entity. The intended result is an evaluation of operations, likely with
recommendations for improvement.

 Tax audit. This is an analysis of the tax returns submitted by an


individual or business entity, to see if the tax information and any
resulting income tax payment is valid. These audits are usually
targeted at returns that result in excessively low tax payments, to
see if an additional assessment can be made.

POLICY ON CORPORATE
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
(CSR) Title and ApplicabilitY
Maruti Suzuki India Limited (‘Company’) has developed its
Corporate Social Responsibility Policy (‘Policy’) in accordance with
section 135 of the Companies Law 2013 and the rules made there
under. 2. The Policy shall apply to all CSR programmes of the
Company. CSR Approach and Priorities CSR activities will primarily
be in the areas of village development, road safety and skill
development. To create a visible and lasting impact, the Company
will focus on a few CSR programmes rather than spread resources
thin over several projects. The Company will undertake relevant and
effective social projects to have a positive and meaningful impact on
the lives of communities around it. In the area of road safety, while
the Company has set up several driving schools in collaboration
with its dealers, their number is far from sufficient considering the
needs of society and the low level of consciousness about road
safety in India. The Company will scale up the number of driving
training schools, and take other initiatives to expand quality driving
training in the country. The Company will make efforts to involve
State Governments in its road safety efforts for a bigger impact. In
line with this, the Company will identify a Tier 2 city for a
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

comprehensive road safety programme in partnership with the


State Government and municipality. The programme will cover all
key areas of road safety, including effective enforcement of the law.
Efforts will be made to persuade State Governments to treat
certificates given by Maruti Driving Schools as sufficient and
necessary for driving licenses. The Company will enhance
employability of underprivileged youth by improving the quality of
skill training in Industrial Training Institutes (ITIs) and designing
innovative business models that create livelihood for them. The
Company will encourage and recognise its employees for
volunteering in the community by serving and sharing their
expertise and skill. The Company’s CSR projects will be
implemented like any other business activity, in a time-bound
manner with clear objectives, plan, targets and robust monitoring
and evaluation parameters. Stakeholder engagement and shared
value creation will be the cornerstones of the CSR programmes of
the Company

Conceptual background

Introduction The International Accounting Standards Board


(Board) issued the revised Conceptual Framework for
Financial Reporting (Conceptual Framework), a
comprehensive set of concepts for financial reporting, in
March 2018. It sets out: • the objective of financial reporting
• the qualitative characteristics of useful financial
information • a description of the reporting entity and its
boundary • definitions of an asset, a liability, equity, income
and expenses • criteria for including assets and liabilities in
financial statements (recognition) and guidance on when to
remove them (derecognition) • measurement bases and
guidance on when to use them • concepts and guidance on
presentation and disclosure This Project Summary
summarises: • why the Board revised the Conceptual
Framework • the main changes from the previous
Conceptual Framework • the main concepts and guidance in
each chapter of the Conceptual Framework
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

Purpose • to assist the Board to develop IFRS Standards


(Standards) based on consistent concepts, resulting in
financial information that is useful to investors, lenders and
other creditors • to assist preparers of financial reports to
develop consistent accounting policies for transactions or
other events when no Standard applies or a Standard allows
a choice of accounting policies • to assist all parties to
understand and interpret Standards Status • provides
concepts and guidance that underpin the decisions the
Board makes when developing Standards • not a Standard •
does not override any Standard or any requirement in a
Standard Effective date • immediately for the Board and the
IFRS Interpretations Committee • annual periods beginning
on or after 1 January 2020 for preparers who develop an
accounting policy based on the Conceptual Framework
Chapter 1—The objective of financial reporting This chapter
sets out the objective of general purpose financial reporting
(financial reporting), what information is needed to achieve
that objective and who the primary users (users) of financial
reports are. Objective of financial reporting To provide
financial information that is useful to users in making
decisions relating to providing resources to the entity
Stewardship Users of financial reports need information to
help them assess management’s stewardship.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

The Conceptual Framework explicitly discusses this need as


well as the need for information that helps users assess the
prospects for future net cash inflows to the entity. Users’
decisions involve decisions about buying, selling or holding
equity or debt instruments providing or settling loans and
other forms of credit voting, or otherwise influencing
management’s actions To make these decisions, users assess
prospects for future net cash inflows to the entity
management’s stewardship of the entity’s economic
resources To make both these assessments, users need
information about both the entity’s economic resources,
claims against the entity and changes in those resources and
claims how efficiently and effectively management has
discharged its responsibilities to use the entity’s economic
resources Summary of changes This chapter was issued in
2010 and went through extensive due process at that time.
Therefore, in revising the Conceptual Framework, the Board
did not fundamentally reconsider this chapter. However, it
clarified why information used in assessing stewardship is
needed to achieve the objective of financial reporting. Users
of financial reports Users of financial reports are an entity’s
existing and potential investors, lenders and other creditors.
Those users must rely on financial reports for much of the
financial information they need.

word ‘perfourmen’, which means ‘to do’, or ‘to carry out’ or
‘to tender’. It refers to the act of performing: execution,
accomplishment, fulfillment etc. In a broader sense,
performance refers to the accomplishment of a given task

Profitability Ratios
The Profitability ratios measures the overall performance
and effectiveness of the firm.

Gross profit –
Ratio is the ratio of gross profit to net sales i.e. sales less
sales returns. The ratio thus reflects the margin of profit that
a concern is able to earn on its trading and manufacturing
activity. It is the most commonly calculated ratio. It is
employed for inter-firm and inter-firm comparison of
trading results. Gross profit is what is revealed by the
trading account. It results from the difference between net
sales and cost of goods sold without taking into account
expenses generally charged to the profit and loss account.
The larger the gap, the greater is the scope for absorbing
various expenses on administration, maintenance, arranging
finance, selling and distribution and yet leaving net profit for
the proprietors or shareholders.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

NET PROFIT RATIO-

Net profit ratio (NP ratio) expresses the relationship


between net profit after taxes and sales. This ratio is a
measure of the overall profitability net profit is arrived at
after taking into account both the operating and non-
operating items of incomes and expenses. The ratio indicates
what portion of the net sales is left for the owners after all
expenses have been met.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

OPERATING RATIO –

The operating ratio is a financial term defined as a


company's operating expenses as a percentage of revenue.
This financial ratio is most commonly used for industries
which require a large percentage of revenues to maintain
operations, such as railroads. In railroading, an operating
ratio of 80 or lower is considered desirable. The operating
ratio can be used to determine the efficiency of a company's
management by comparing operating expenses to net sales.
It is calculated by dividing the operating expenses by the net
sales. The smaller the ratio, the greater the organization's
ability to generate profit. The ratio does not factor in
expansion or debt repayment. Alternatively, it may be
expressed as a ratio of sales to cost. In such case a higher
ratio indicates a better ability to generate revenue.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

PROPRIETARY RATIO –

The proprietary ratio (also known as the equity ratio) is the


proportion of shareholders' equity to total assets, and as
such provides a rough estimate of the amount of
capitalization currently used to support a business. If the
ratio is high, this indicates that a company has a sufficient
amount of equity to support the functions of the business,
and probably has room in its financial structure to take on
additional debt, if necessary. Conversely, a low ratio
indicates that a business may be making use of too much
debt or trade payables, rather than equity, to support
operations (which may place the company at risk of
bankruptcy).
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO-

Asset turnover is a financial ratio that measures the


efficiency of a company's use of its assets in generating sales
revenue or sales income to the company. Companies with
low profit margins tend to have high asset turnover, while
those with high profit margins have low asset turnover.
Companies in the retail industry tend to have a very high
turnover ratio due mainly to cutthroat and competitive
pricing. The ratio of the value of a company’s sales or
revenues generated relative to the value of its assets. The
Asset Turnover ratio can often be used as an indicator of the
efficiency with which a company is deploying its assets in
generating revenue.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

STOCK TURNOVER RATIO-

( INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO) The Inventory turnover is


a measure of the number of times inventory is sold or used
in a time period such as a year. The equation for inventory
turnover equals the cost of goods sold or net sales divided by
the average inventory. Inventory turnover is also known as
inventory turns, merchandise turnover, stock turn, stock
turns, turns, and stock turnover. Increasing inventory
turns reduces holding cost. The organization spends less
money on rent, utilities, insurance, theft and other costs of
maintaining a stock of good to be sold. Reducing holding
cost increases net income and profitability as long as the
revenue from selling the item remains constant. Items that
turn over more quickly increase responsiveness to changes
in customer requirements while allowing the replacement of
obsolete items.
STUDY OF AUDIT AND REPORT OF STANDARD AUTO AGENCIES

This is a major concern in fashion industries. When


making comparison between firms, it's important to take
note of the industry, or the comparison will be distorted.
Making comparison between a supermarket and a car
dealer, will not be appropriate, as supermarket sells fast
moving goods such as sweets, chocolates, soft drinks so the
stock turnover will be higher. However, a car dealer will
have a low turnover due to the item being a slow moving
item. As such only intra-industry comparison will be
appropriate.

Summary Of Findings,
Suggestions And
Conclusions.

Performance of a company measured in financial terms, the


success of the firm depends on how it is perceived by and
reacts to the external economics markets. The field of
managing fiancé is much more complicated and faster faces
today. Financial managers need to know how effective
decisions can be made and ineffective ones be avoided. The
present study is concerned with financial analysis of Maruti
Suzuki India Limited for a period of five years during 2010-
11 to 2014-15. This chapter optimizes the major findings,
suggestions and conclusions for efficient utilization with
respect to Maruti Suzuki India Limited Company.

Suggestions:

Auto industry thus present a good opportunity for the


investors especially in the form of Mahindra and Mahindra
ltd. Major Indian producers like Tata’s and Maruti may be
doing good in the form of numbers in sales but will face
great competition in for of Mahindra and Mahindra.
Mahindra and Mahindra has a great position on the stock
market and will attract investors and this could lead to
expansion and growth. Thus the Tata’s and Maruti need to
take care of their stock and work on its consistency. This
would help them attract more investors and grow in this

CONCLUSION:

The study explored the truth that ratios by themselves mean


nothing. It is found that ratios are calculated from the financial
statements’ which are prepared as desired by the management and
policies adopted on depreciation and stock values and thus produce
only a collection of facts expressed in monetary term and cannot
produce complete and authentic picture of the business and also
may not highlight other factors which affects performance. It is also
found that to control manager’s management often overuse ratio
and concentrate more on improving the ratios. It is also known fact
that ratio is simple comparison of numerator and a denominator
and in comparing ratios it become difficult to adjudicate whether
differences are due to change in the numerator or denominator or in
both. It is also found that ratios are interconnected but are often
treated by management in isolation. It is also found that analysis of
ratios lack authenticity as data used in calculation are not accurate
but manipulated presentation by the promoters. It is also found that
different firms follow different accounting policies like depreciation
allowance; valuation of inventory etc. and often management ignore
these differences while making inter-firm comparison. It is known
fact that ratios are calculated from past records and have no
indicator of future and are also not compared according to standard.
It is also found that change in price levels due to inflation is also not
properly considered by management. In the shadow of above
revelation and fact the study conclude that Marutisuzuki have better
strategic position in comparison to its competitor in all the
respective ratios.
