EXECUTIVE SUMMERY
The Project has been conducted at VARROC POLYMERS PVT LTD.
Varroc Polymers Ltd. was established in 2003.Varroc group are a premier supplierfor the automotive industry with full capabilities in design, development and
manufacturing. Offering complete capabilities integration sets us apart from our
competitors. The objective behind this project is to understand meaning and
importance of Inventory Management. To know various method of inventory
control.Tostutdy the various aspect of inventory management of Varroc Polymers
Pvt ltd.
Inventory Management Systems hav ing a great importance in day to day
management of the firm. Inventory Management is primarily about specifying the
size and placement of stocked goods. Inventory management is required at
different location within a facility or within multiple location of a supply network
to protect the regular and planned course of production against the random
disturbance of running out of materials or goods.
The scope of Inventory Management also concerns the fine lines betweenreplenishment lead times, carrying cost of inventory, asset management, inventoryforecasting, Inventory Valuation, Inventory visibility, Future Inventory Priceforecasting, Physical Inventory, available physical space for Inventory, QualityManagement, Replenishment Returns, and Defective Goods, Demand forecasting.
Balancing these competing requirements leads to optimal inventory levels, whichis an on-going process as the business needs shift and react to the widerenvironment.
Successful inventory management involves balancing the cost of inventorywith the benefits of Inventory. Many small business owner fail to appreciate fully

the true cost of carrying inventory, which include not only direct cost of storage,insurance and taxes, but also the cost of money tied up in inventory. This fine line
between keeping too much inventory and not enough is not the Managers onlyconcern.
Just in Time (JIT) inventory control is the result of a new emphasis by firmson continuous process improvement. The idea is that inventories are acquired andinserted in production at the exact times they are needed.
In this project the theoretical background includes meaning of inventorymanagement systems. Method of inventory control and supply chain cycle. Thedata analysis includes calculations and projection of future inventory.

TOPIC INFORMATION
Inventory Management refers to the process of managing the stocks of finishedproducts, semi-finished products and raw materials by a firm. Inventory management, if done properly, can bring down costs and increase the revenue of a firm.
How much one should invest in inventory management? The answer to this questiondepends on the volume and value of inventory as a percentage of the total assets of afirm. The importance of inventory management caries according to industries. Forexample, an automobile dealer has very high inventories, sometimes as high as 50percent of the total assets, whereas in the hotel industry it may be as low as 2to 5 percent.
The process of inventory management is a continuous one and there are various kinds of solutions available. It is advisable to employ specialized staff for inventory management.
The inventory management process begins as soon as one has started production andordered raw materials, semi-finished products or any other thing from a supplier.
Once orders have been placed, there is generally a short period of time available to a firmto put an Inventorymanagement plan in place before the supplies are delivered. Inventorymanagement helps a firm to decide in advance where these supplies should be stored. if afirm is getting supplies of small-sized goods, it may not be much of a problem to storethem, but in the case of large goods ,one has to be careful so that the warehousing spaceis optimally utilized.
Form invoices to purchase orders, there its lot of paperwork and documentation involvedin inventory management. Several software programs are available in market, which helpin inventory management. Like a Tally ERP software by using this software any one cancontrol on inventory. Inventory too many small business owners in one of the morevisible and tangible aspects of doing business. Raw materials, goods in process andfinished goods all represent various forms of inventory. Each type represents money tiedup until the inventory leaves the company as purchased products.
Likewise, merchandise stocks in retail store contribute to profits only when their sale puts
money into the cash register. In a literal sense, inventory refers to stocks of anythingnecessary to do business. The stocks represent a largeportion of the business investmentand must be well managed in order to maximize profits.in fact,manysmall businessescannot absorb the types of losses arising from poor inventory management.unlessinventories are controlled, they are unreliable,inefficient and costly.

CONCEPT:
Inventory management is a very simple concept- dont have too much stock and donthave too little. Since there can be substantial costs involved in straying above andbelow the optimal range, careful inventory management can make a huge differencein profitability of a business. Although the concept is simple the process of getting theright balance can be quite a complex and time consuming.
Task with without technology.
There are tow fundamental questions that must be answered, in order to manage theinventory of any physical item.
Q.1) When to order?
Q.2) How much to order? Types of Inventory

RAW MATERIAL
Raw material is something that is acted upon or used by or by human labor orindustry, for use as a building material to create some product structure. Often theterm is used to denote material that come from nature and is in unprocessed orminimally processed state. Iron are, logs, and crude oil, would be examples non -human related raw material would include twigs and found objects as used by birds tomake nests.
GOODS IN PROCESS
Work that has been started but not yet completed. This could be project or creativework.(e.g., book, song, film). In manufacturing this can refer to inventory that hasbeen worked on such that it is no longer viable as raw materials while not yet sellable
as a finished products; in this case it is more common to use work in process. CONSUMABLE
Consumable is, something that is capable of being consumed; that may be destroyed,dissipated, wasted, of spent. Consumables are products that consumers buyrecurrently,i.e., items which get used up discarded. For example consumable officesupplies are such products as paper, pens, file folders, post-it notes, computer disks,and toner or ink cartridges. Not included capital goods such as computers, faxmachines, and business machines or office furniture.
FINISHED GOODS
Finished goods are goods that have completed the manufacturing process but have notyet been sold or distributed to the end user.
SPARE PARTS
Spare parts are usually parts to replace others when they break. Surplus componentsof an automobile or other manufactured goods, kept in inventory for replacement of failed parts.

CUSTOMER:
As companies increasingly narrow their focus on their true core competencies, the
responsibility of maintaining the physical sets and equipment they use in their
businesses is moving to the shoulders of the companies who manufacture of servicethe products, that are the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) and the
operation & Maintenance (O&M) service providers. Maintaining this distributed
installed base requires continuous remote monitoring of the equipment since it is
impossible for the OEMs or O&M providers to have their expert teams everywhere.
Further, for all discrete industrial equipment end users operating reliability, energy
efficiency, and minimal material wastage are the key factors controlling heir operation
and maintenance costs that otherwise surpass the capital expenses. The Super Axis
remote performance management solution is also very beneficial to multi-plant
owners as they can centrally coordinate the proper working of their plants and
benchmark them for improvement.

THEORETICAL BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
Inventories constitute the most significant part of current assets of a majority of
companies in India. On an average, inventories are approximately 60% of current assets.Because of large sixe of inventories maintained by firms, a considerable amount of fundsis required to be committed to them. It is, therefore, absolutely imperative to manageinventories efficiently and effectively in order to avoid.
Unnecessary investment, A firm neglecting the management of inventories will be jeopardizing its long run profitability and may fail ultimately. It is possible for a companyto reduce its level of inventories to a considerable degree, e.g, 10 to 20 percent, withoutany adverse effect on production and sales, by using simple inventory planning and
control techniques. The reduction in excessive inventories carries a favorable impact oncompanys profitability.
DEVELOPMENTS IN INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
In recent years, two approaches have had a major impact on inventory management:Material Requirements Planning (MRP) and Just-In-Time (JIT and Kan-ban).Theirapplication is primarily within manufacturing but suppliers might find newrequirements placed on them and sometimes buyers of manufactured items willexperience a difference in delivery.
Material requirements planning are basically an information system n which sales areconverted directly into loads on the facility by sub-unit and time period. Materials arescheduled more closely, thereby reducing inventories, and delivery times becomeshorter more predictable. Its primary use is with products composed of manycomponents.MRP systems are practical for smaller firms. The computer system isonly one part of the project which is usually long-term taking one to three years todevelop.
Just-in-time inventory management is an approach which works to eliminateinventories rather than optimize them. The inventory of raw materials and work-in-process falls to that needed in single day. This is accomplished by reducing set-uptimes and lead times so that small lots may be ordered. Suppliers may have to makeseveral deliveries a day or move close to the user plants to support this plan.

Nature of inventories
Inventories are stock of the product a company is manufacturing for sale andcomponents that make up the product. The various forms in which inventories exist ina manufacturing company are:
Raw materials
These are those basic inputs that are converted into finished product into finishedproduct through the manufacturing process. Raw materials inventories are those unitswhich have been purchased and stored for future productions.
Work in process
These inventories are semi-manufactured products. They represent products that needmore work before they become finished for sale
Finished goods
These inventories are those completely manufactured products which are ready for
sale stock of raw materials and work-in-process facilitate production while stock of finished goods is required for smooth marketing operations. Thus ,inventories serveas a link between the production and consumption of goods.
The levels of three kinds of inventories a firm depend on the nature of its business. Amanufacturing firm will have substantially high levels of all three kinds of inventories. Within manufacturing firms, there will be differences.Large heavyengineering companies produce long production cycle products therefore they carrylarge inventories. Firms also maintain a fourth kind of inventory, supplies or stores
and spares. Supplies include office and plant cleaning materials like soap, oil, fuel,light bulbs etc. these materials do not directly enter production, but are necessary forproduction process. Usually, these supplies are small part of the total inventory and donot involve significant investment. Therefore, a sophisticated system of inventorycontrol may not be maintained for them.

Benefit of holding inventories
The question of managing inventories arises only when the company holdsinventories. Maintaining inventories involves tying up of the companys funds andoccurrence of storage and handling costs. If it is expensive to maintain inventories,why do companies hold inventories?
There are three general motives for holding inventories :-
TRANSCATIONS MOTIVE:
It emphasizes the need to maintain inventories to facilitate smooth production and salesoperations.
PRECAUTIONARY MOTIVE:
The necessitates holding of inventories to guard against the risk of unpredictable changesin demand and supply force and other factors.
SPECULATIVE MOTIVE:
It influences the decision to increase or reduce inventory levels to take the advantage of
price level fluctuations. Company should maintain adequate stock of materials for acontinuous supply to the factory for an uninterrupted production. It is not possible for acompany to procure raw materials whenever it is needed. A time lag exists betweendemand for materials and its supply. Also, there exists uncertainty in procuring rawmaterials in time on many occasions. The procurement of material may be delayed of price rise. Work in process inventory builds up because of the production cycle.Production cycle is the time plan between introduction of raw materials into productionand emergence of finished product at the completion of production cycle. Till productioncycle completes, stock of WIP has to be maintained. Stock of finished goods to be held
because production and sales are not instantaneous. A firm cannot produce immediatelywhen customers demand goods. Therefore, to supply finished goods on a regularbasis,their stock has to be maintained.

COST ASSOCIATED WITH INVENTORY (MANAGEMENT)
1. ORDERERING COST:
The ordering cost is the price paid for a purchased item, which consists of the cost of theitem and any other direct costs associated in getting the item into the plant. These couldinclude such thing as Transportation, Custom duties and Insurance.
2.CARRYING COST:
Carrying cost include all expenses incurred by the firm because of the volume of inventory carried.
IT CONSISTS THREE CATEGORIES:
CAPITAL COSTS :-Money invested in inventory is not available for other usagesand as such represents a lost opportunity cost.
STORAGE COST :-Storage inventory requires space, workers, and equipment.
RISK COST :-The risks in carrying inventory are:
(1) OBSOLESCENCE - loss of product value resulting from a model or style changeor technological development.
(2) DAMAGE - Inventory damaged while being held or moved.
(3) PILFERAGE :- goods lost, strayed, or stolen.

OBJECTIVE OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
In the context of inventory management, the form is faced with the problem of meeting two conflicting needs:
1. To maintain a large size of inventories of raw material and WIP for efficient andsmooth production and of finished goods for uninterrupted sales operations.
2. To maintain a minimum investment in inventories to maximize profitability.Both excessive and inadequate inventories are not desirable. These are two dangerpoints which the firm a should avoid. The objective of inventory investment. The
optimum level of inventory will lie between the two danger points of excessiveand inadequate inventories. The firm should always avoid a situation of overinvestment or under investment in inventories. The major dangers of overinvestment are:
Unnecessary tie up of the firms funds loss of profit Excessive carrying costs Risk of liquidity
The excessive level of inventories consumes funds of the firm, which cannot be usedfor any other purpose, and thus, it involves an opportunity cost. The carrying costssuch as the costs of storage, handling,insurance,recording and inspection, alsoincreases in preparation to the volume of inventor y. These costs will impair the firmsprofitability further. Excessive inventories carried for long period increase chances of loss of liquidity. It may not be possible to sell inventories in time and at full value.Raw materials are generally difficult to sell as the holding period increases. Anotherdanger of carrying excessive inventory is the physical deterioration of inventorieswhile in storage. Maintaining an inadequatelevel of inventories is also dangerous. Theconsequences of under investment in inventories are:
-
7/31/2019 Inventory Management-yogesh Kulkarni Project
35/72
Page
35
o Production hold-ups
o Failure to meet delivery commitments
o Inadequate raw materials and WIP inventories will result in frequentproduction interruptions. The aim of inventory management is to avoidexcessive and inadequate levels of inventories and to maintain sufficientinventory for the smooth production and sales operations. An effectiveinventory management should: ensure a continuous supply raw materials tofacilitate uninterrupted production maintain sufficient stock of raw materials inperiods of short supply and anticipate price changes. Maintain sufficientfinished goods inventory for smooth sales operation and efficient consumerminimize the carrying cost and time.
Effective Materials Management Is Essential in Order To:
1. Provide the best service to customers,2. Produce at maximum efficiency, and3. Manage inventories at predetermined levels to stabilize investments in inventories.
Successful materials management requires the development of a highly integrated andcoordinated system involving Sales Forecasting, Purchasing, Receiving, Storage,Production, and actual Sales. Both the theory of costing materials and inventories and therecord keeping must be considered.
Costing materials present some important, often complex, and sometime highlycontroversial questions concerning the costing of materials used in production and thecost of inventory remaining the consumed in a future period. In financial accounting, the
subject is usually presented as a problem of inventory valuation ;in cost accounting, theprimary problems is the determination of the cost of various materials consumed inproduction and a proper charge to cost of goods sold.

PROCEDURES FOR MATERIAL PROCUREMENT AND USE
Although production processes and materials requirements vary, the cycle of procurement and use of materials usually involves the following steps:
1. Engineering and planning determine the design of the product, the materialsspecifications, and the requirements at each stage of operations. Engineering andplanning not only determine the maximum and minimum quantities to run and Billof Materials for given products and quantities but also cooperate in developingstandards where applicable.
2. The production budget provides the Master plan from which details
concerningmaterials requirements are eventfully developed.
3. The purchase requisition informs the purchasing agent concerning the quantity andtype of materials needed.
4. The purchase order contracts for appropriate quantities to be delivered at specifieddates to assure ininterruptedoperations.
5.
The receiving report certifies quantities received and may report results of inspection and testing for quantity.
6. The materials requisition notifies the storeroom or warehouse to deliver specifiedtime or is the authorization for the storeroom to issue material to departments.
7. The materials lodger cards record the receipt and insurance of each class of materials and provide a perpetual inventory record.

(1.) PURCHASE OF PRODUCTIVE MATERIAL:
The actual purchase of all material is made by usually purchase department headed by ageneral purchasing agent, in some small and medium size companies, however,department heads or supervisor have authority to purchase materials as the need arises. Inany case, systematic procedures should be in writing in order to fix responsibility and toprovide full information regarding the ultimate use of materials ordered and received.The purchasing department should receive purchase requisitions for materials, supplies,and equipments; keep informed concerning sources of supply, prices, and shipping anddelivery schedules; prepare and place purchase orders; and arranging for adequate andsystematic reports between the purchasing, the receiving, and the accountingdepartments. An additional function of the purchasing department in many enterprises into verify and approve for payments all invoices received in response to purchase ordersplaced by the department. This procedure has the advantage of centralizing theverification and approval by the purchasing department may violate sound proceduresand later approves the invoice. Consequently, invoice audit and approval in manyinstances have been made a function of the accounting department, which receives a copyof the purchase order (PO ). The purchase order carries all necessary informationregarding prices, discount agreement and delivery stipulations, as well as the number of the account to which the order is to be charged. Furthermore, the centralization of invoiceapproval in the accounting department helps avoid delaying payments beyond thediscount period.
(2)MATERIAL PURCHASE ORDER FORMS:
The purchase order, sighed by the purchasing agent or other official, is a writtenauthorization to a vendor to supply specified quantities of described goods at agreedterms and at a designated time and place, as a convenience, the vendors order forms maybe used; but in typical practice, the order forms are prepared by the purchasing company,and the form is adapted to the particular needs of the purchaser. As a matter of record andaccounting control, a purchase order should be issued for every purchase of materials,supplies, or equipment. When a purchase commitment is made by mail, telephone, or asales representative, the purchase order serves as confirmation to the vendor and placesthe required documents in the hands of those concerned in the purchasing company. Thepurchases order gives the vendor a complete description of the goods and services desiredthe terms, the prices, and the shipping instruction. When necessary,thedescription may

refer to attached blueprints and specification pages. The original and anacknowledgement copy are sent to the vendor. The acknowledgment cop is a necessaryform for contract procedure, because other copies are distributed. The vendor is asked tosign and return the copy to the purchaser, indicating that the order was received and will
be delivered according to the specifications enumerated in the purchases order.
(3).RECEIVING THE MATERIALS:
The receiving report shows the purchase order number, the account. Number to becharged, the name of the vendor, details relating to transportation, and the quantity andtype of the goods receive. the form also provides a space for the inspection department tonote either the complete approval of the shipment or the quantity rejected and the reason
for the rejection, in inspection does not take place immediately after receipt of thematerials, the receiving report is distributed as follows:
1. The receiving department keeps one copy and sends another copy to thepurchasing department as notice of the arrival of the materials.
2. All other copies go to the inspection department, and are distributed wheninspection is completed. After inspection, one copy of the receiving report, withthe inspection result noted thereon is sent to the accounting department, where it ismatched with the purchase order and the venders invoice and the paid. Othercopies go to various departments such as materials and production planning. Onecopy accompanies the materials, so that the storekeeper knows the quantity andthe kind of materials received.
(4)INVOICE APPOROVAL:
The invoice and a copy of the purchase order are filled in the accounting department.When the receiving report with its inspection reports arrives; the receiving report and theinvoice are compare to see that materials received meet purchase order specifications asto items, quantities, and price extensions, discount and credit terms, shipping instruction,and other possible conditions. The invoice is found to be correct or has been adjustedbecause of rejects as noted by the inspection department; the invoice clerk approves it,attaches it to the purchase order and the receiving report, and sends these papers toanother clerk for the preparation of the voucher.

Invoice approval is an important step in materials control procedure, since it certifies thatthe goods have been received as ordered and the payment can be made. The invoiceapproval information is often built in to a rubber stamp and each invoice is stamped.
(5) CORRECTING INVOICE :
o Some of the materials ordered are not received and are not entered on the invoice.In this case no adjustment is necessary, and the invoice may be approved forimmediate payment. On the purchase order the invoice clerk will make a notationof the quantity received in place of the quantity order. If the vendor is out of stock or otherwise unable to deliver specified merchandise, and immediate orderingfrom other sources may be necessary.
o Items ordered are not received but are entered on the invoice. In this situation the
shortage is noted on invoice and is deducted from the total before payment isapproved. A letter to the vendor explaining the shortage is usually in order.
o The seller ships a quantity larger than called for on the purchase order. Thepurchaser may keep the entire shipment and add the excess to the invoice, if notalready invoiced; or the excess may be returned or held, pending instructions fromthe seller. Some companies issue a supplementary purchase order that authorizesthe invoice clerk to pay the over shipment.
o Materials of a wrong size are quality, defective parts, and damaged items arereceived. If the items are returned, a correction on the invoice should be madebefore payment is approved. It may be advantageous to keep damaged or defectiveshipments if the seller makes adequate price concessions, or the items may be heldsubject to the sellers instructions.
o It may be expedient for a purchaser to pay transportation charges, even thoughdelivered prices are quoted and purchases are not made on this basis. The amountpaid by the purchaser is deducted on the invoice, and paid freight bill attached tothe invoice as evidence of payment.

1. The materials account number2. The frequency of use of the item.3. The factory area where the item is used4. The nature size and shape of the item.
The practice, no single base is likely to be suitable, but the size and shape of materialsusually dictate the basic storeroom arrangement variations can then be introduced,such as placing most frequently used items nearest the point of issue and locatingmaterials used primarily in one factory area nearest that area.
Bin Cards or Stock Cards are effective ready references that may be attached tostorage bins, shelves, racks, or other containers. Bin cards usually show quantities of each type of materials received, issued, and on hand. They are not a part of theaccounting records as such, but they show the quantities on hand in the storeroom at
all times and should agree with the quantities on the materials ledger cards in theaccounting department.
(8). ISSUING AND COSTING MATERIAL INTO PRODUCTION:
To control the quantity and cost of materials, supplies, and a service requires asystematic and efficient system of purchasing, recording, and storing. Equallynecessary is a systematic and efficient procedure for issuing materials and supplies.
MATERIALS REQUISITIONS:
The materials requisition, illustrated below, is a written order to the storekeeper todeliver materials or supplies to the place designated or to give the materials to theperson presenting a properly executed requisition. It is drawn by someone who hasthe authority to requisition materials for use in the department. The authorizedemployee may be a department head, a supervisor, in a computerized system; thecomputer program will often prepare the requisition in the form of a tabulatingcard.
The materials requisition is the basic form used to withdraw materials from thestoreroom. Its preparation results in entries in the issued section of the materialsledger card and in posting to the job order cost sheets, production reports pr the

various expense analysis sheets for individual departments. All withdrawals resultin debits to work in process or to control accounts of r factory overhead, marketingexpenses, or administrative expenses, and in credits to materials.
MATERIALS REQUISTITIONED JOURNAL:
The ultimate objective in cost accounting is to produce accurate and meaningfulfigures. These figures can be used for purposes of control and analysis and eventuallymatched against revenue produced in order to determine net operating income.
After the unit cost and total cost of incoming materials are entered in the receivedsection of a materials ledger cards, the next step is to cost these materials as theymove either from storeroom to factory as direct materials or indirect or formstoreroom to marketing and administrative expense accounts as supplies.
BILL OF MATETIALS (BOM):
The bill of materials, a kind of master repulsion, is a printed or duplicated formthat lists all the materials and parts necessary for a typical job or production run. Timeis saved and efficiency is promoted through the use of a bill of materials. Whena jobor production run is started all the materials listed on the bill of materials is a rathercumbersome medium for posting purpose, however data processing improves theprocedure by simultaneously. Preparing tabulating cards for materials requisitions.while the storekeeper issues the materials as stated on the bill of materials, thetabulating cards can be processed in the materials lodger section and in the costdepartment at almost the same time a the materials are used in the factory. Acomputer program will provide the print outs of the bill of materials and process theinformation internally to update the accounting records.

LIFO METHOD:
Its mean Last in First out. In which the most recently acquired items are assumed tobe the first issued the last in first out (LIFO) method of costing materials issued isbased on the premise that materials units issued should carry the cost of the mostrecent purchase, although the physical flow may actually be different. The methodassumes that the most recent cost (the approximate cost to replace the consumedunits) is most significant in matching cost with revenue in the income determinationprocedure. Under LIFO procedures, the objective is to charge the cost of currentpurchases to work in process or other operating expenses and to leave the oldest costsin the inventory. Several alternatives can be used to apply the LIFO method. Eachprocedure results in different costs for materials issued and the ending inventory, andconsequently in a different profit.
LIFO Costing Method Example:
This example is based on the following transactions
July-
(1). beginning balance: 800 units @ 6 per unit.
(2.) Received 200 units @ 7 per unit.
(3) Received 200 units @ 8 per unit.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
RESEARCH INTRODUCTION:
When we talk of research methodology, we not only talk of the research methods but alsothe comparison of the logic behind the methods, we used in this context of our researchstudy and explain why we are using a particular method or technique and why using theothers. It may be understood as a science of studying how research is donesystematically. in this, we study the various steps that are generally adopted by researcherin studying his research problem along with the logic behind them. The present study isbased upon the case study method of research to investigate p rocedures at micro level asthe study is analyzing probing in nature, thus, entirely based on the secondary at gathered
through the annual reports of the industry therefore it provides a historical perspective of decisions.
RESEARCH
Research refers to search for knowledge. Research is an original contribution to theexisting stock of knowledge making for its advancement. It is the pursuit of truth withthe help of study, observation, comparison and experiment. In short, the search forknowledge through objective and systematic method of finding solution of theproblem is research.
RESEARCH METHODS
Research methods may be understood as those methods/techniques that are used forconduction of research. All those methods which are used by the researcher during thecourse of studying his research problem are termed as research methods.
Keeping in view, the research methods can be put into following three groups:
In the first group we include those methods which are concerned with thecollection of data. These methods will be used where the data alreadyavailable are sufficient to arrive at the required solution.
The second group consists of those statistical techniques which are used toestablish relationships between the data and the unknown.
The third group consists of those methods which are used to evaluate theaccuracy of the obtained results.

COLLECTION OF DATA
There are several ways of collecting the appropriate data which differ considerably incontext of money, cost, time and other sources at the disposable of the researcher.
There are two types of data:
PRIMARY DATA
Primary data are those which are collected afresh and for the first time, and thushappened to be original in character. In case of descriptive research, research performssurvey whether sample survey or census survey, thus we obtain primary data eitherthrough:
Observation Direct communication with respondent Personal interview

INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO :
Inventory turnover ratio indicates how quickly inventory is used for production. The
greater the ratio the shorter would be the duration of inventory at the factory. It iscalculated by dividing cost of goods sold by the average inventory.
Cost of sale
INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO =
Average stock
Usually a high inventory turnover ration indicates efficient management of the inventoryBecause more frequently the goods are sold; the lesser amount of money is required tofinance the inventory. A low ration indicates an inefficient management of inventory.

FINDINGS
From the data analysis, it is clear that the raw material cost is decreasing which is good
for the growth of organization. In 2008-09 it was 66.55 which decreased In year 2009-10to 62.88 and decreased to 60.33 in 2010-11. This is satisfactory.
From the analysis of inventory ratio it is found the inventory turnover ration is decliningevery year.in 2008-09 inventories turnover ratio was 32.34 in 2009-10 it declined to18.92 and in 2010-11 it again decreased to 13.32 which shows that the selling condition
of company is not so good.
Inventory conversion period (Inventory holding period) is increasing which is not goodsign as it takes long period to convert the inventory in to cash. In a year 2008-09 holdingperiod was 16.13 days which was very good , but in 2009-10 it increased 17.76 days and itagain raised to 24.65 days in 2010-11 which leads to more capital block again inventory.

RECOMMONDATION
Company should adopt Economic order Quality (EOQ) technique to maintain the
inventory.
To reduce the cost of deterioration condition of store department should be
improved.
To reduce lead time of inventory, those who are outside vendor which take more
time to supply material apart form that company should order form local vendor
which supplies same material in same rate.
A company customer schedule is accepted on monthly basis. It indicates that
company order raw material for month which is long period to hold material
which increase unnecessary cost of holding and carrying for that it is require that
to reduce period of order inventory on weekly basis. Which reduce holding cost
Company should use the just in Time.(JIT) technique to control on inventory cost.
It means company should demand raw material as an when it require.
