4.1. ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Financial Statement analysis is largely a study of relationship among the

various financial factors in a business as disclosed by a single set of statements

and a study of trend of these factors as shown in a series of statements.

In the opinion of Kennedy and Macmillion- “by establishing strategic

relationships between the components of balance sheet and profit and loss

account and other operative data, it unveils the meaning and significance if

the various items embodied in the financial statements”.

4.2. TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES OF FINANCIAL ANALYSIS

A variety of tools and techniques are available to the financial analyst.

Financial Analyst chooses the techniques to suit the requirements of different

enterprises under different situations.

These tools and techniques are:

I. COMPARATIVE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In Comparative Financial Statements, two or more balance sheet and / or the

income statement are shown simuntaneously, in columnor form to facilitate

comparison.

It is a horizontal analysis of the firm in which figures for more than one year

are shown side by side to study the trend of different items.

It can be prepared for both balance sheet and income statement.

Page 13: project of finance analysis

13

It is useful for identifying the direction of changes and to study the trend in

different indicators of performance of an enterprises.

Comparative Income Statement

It is prepared to study the trend of different items of income statement by

studying simultaneously the income statement of two or more periods. It is useful

to analyse the changes of amount and direction of changes in sales, cost of goods

sold, operating expenses, operating profit, different heads of expenses and

incomes from one period to another.

Comparative Balance Sheet

It is prepared on the lines of comparative income statements. It is useful for

analyzing the changes in the financial position over a period of two or more years.

It is useful for identifying the direction of changes in the amount of the working

capital, fixed assets, long term liabilities, capital, retained earnings, reserves and

surpluses.

II. COMMON SIZE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In Common Size Financial Statements, the relationship of different items

of financial statement is established with some common base.

The sales figure is assumed to be 100 and all figures are expressed as a

percentage of total sales.

Common Size Income Statement

Page 14: project of finance analysis

14

It is useful for identifying the relative importance of different components of the

sales revenue. By computing similar ratios for the previous years, the reasons for

the decline or increase in the profit may be identified.

In order to prepare the Common Size Income Statement, the following procedure

is followed:

a) The total of sales revenue is taken as 100.

b) Each item of the expense is expressed as a percentage of total of sales

revenue.

c) Each item of the revenue is expressed as a percentage of total of sales

revenue and the profit is also expressed as a percentage of total sales

revenue.

Common Size Balance Sheet

The procedure for preparing the Common Size Balance Sheet is as follows:

a) The total of the asset side or the total of the capital and liabilities side is

taken as 100.

b) Each type of asset is expressed as a percentage of total assets.

c) Each item on the ‘capital & liabilities’ side of the balance sheet is

expressed as a percentage of total of the capital and liabilities of the

balance sheet.

In order to have a comparison of one year with that of another year, it is necessary

to ensure that the organization has followed consistently the same accounting

policies and practices from year after year.

Page 15: project of finance analysis

III. RATIO ANALYSIS

Ratio Analysis is a powerful technique of financial analysis.

Ratio is an expression of the quantitative relationship between two

numbers.

The term ‘accounting ratios is used to describe significant relationship

between figures shown on a balance sheet, in a profit and loss account, in a

budgetary system or in any other part of the accounting organization.

Usefulness of Ratio Analysis:

Provides greater insight into the profit ability and financial position of

the concern.

It simplifies the comprehensive financial data available in financial

statements.

It is helpful to assess the operating efficiency of the firm by determining

whether the assets are being used efficiently or not.

It is very useful for planning and forecasting.

It helps in locating the factors which led to the failure of the business,

thus management can take necessary corrective and remedial measures

to overcome them.

It is useful for comparison the performance of the firm with that of other

firm and of industry in general. It also makes the comparison of

different units in the same firm i.e. the intra-firm comparison.

It is helpful in ascertaining the trends in profits, sales, costs etc. and

enables to judge the performance of the concern over the years.

IV. CASH FLOW ANALYSIS

Cash Flow Statement analyse the movement of funds in terms of cash i.e.,

cash transactions where cash moved in and out of the organization.

The movement of cash into the organisation, is called cash inflow.

The movement of cash out of the organization is called cash outflow.

Cash Flow Statement is prepared to know the changes in cash position

from one period to another. It is a statement which shows the sources and

applications of cash and the manner in which cash has been utilized during

the year.

It includes only the cash transactions. The cash may be generated from

sources, like, cash operating profit, sale of fixed assets, issue of share

capital for cash, issue of other securities for cash, etc.

The application of cash may be cash operating loss, purchase of fixed

assets, payment of tax, dividend, redemption of debentures, repayment of

borrowings, etc.

If the sources exceed the applications of cash during a year, it would be an

increase of cash and if reverse is the case, the cash balance would decrease

during the period.

This type of financial analysis is useful for short term planning by the firm.

It is an important tool for the management of cash and finds out the

liquidity position of the firm.

In India, the preparation of cash flow statement is governed by AS-3 issued

by Institute of Chartered Accountants of India.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Page 18: project of finance analysis

18

The study involved internal financial analysis of ProvibTech India Pvt. Ltd.

which is situated at Ashram, South Delhi over a period of 6 weeks.

The study is extended to the accounts department of ProvibTech India Pvt.

Ltd.

During this study, efforts are made to analyse the financial position and

performance of the company in India.

Financial Analysis Tools Used:

Comparative Statements (Income Statement and Balance Sheet)

Common Size Statements (Income Statement and Balance Sheet)

Ratio Analysis

Cash Flow Statement

5.1. RESEARCH DESIGN : DESCRIPTIVE RESEARCH

Descriptive research seeks to describe the current status of an identified

variable.

The researcher does not usually begin with an hypothesis, but is likely to

develop one after collecting data. 

The analysis and synthesis of the data provide the test of the hypothesis. 

Systematic collection of information requires careful selection of the units

studied and careful measurement of each variable.

Page 19: project of finance analysis

19

5.2. SOURCES OF DATA

Primary Data

Secondary Data

To generate primary data for the analysis, discussion was made with

company’s accounts manager and accountants. The data collected

from such discussions are coordinated, analysed and integrated in

this study.

To generate secondary data, various other sources were used:

- Accounting records of the company viz. Annual Audit Financial

Statemens (Income Statement and Balance Sheet)

- Catalogues / Magazines

- Internet

5.3. SAMPLING INSTRUMENT

The Sampling Instrument used in this project study is Financial Statements

(Profit and Loss Account and Balance Sheet) for the last 5 financial years

(2009-13).

Page 20: project of finance analysis

20

5.3. LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

The study is restricted to a period of six weeks only, so some additional

financial analysis are not covered in this study.

The accuracy of financial analysis largely depends on how accurately

financial statements are prepared.

The financial analysis of financial statements of the concern provides only

the quantitative information about the company’s financial affairs and it

fails to provide qualitative information such as management-employee

relation, customer’s satisfaction, etc.

Past performance (Good or bad) is not a perfect indicator of future

performance.

The financial analysis reveals only the past performance of firm and it is

not necessary that the same conditions have to be repeated in the future.

the current liabilities.

Current Ratio= Current Assets

2013 4427384.00 3751470.00 1.18:0

Page 55: project of finance analysis

55

The above table shows the current ratio which has declined from 2009

onwards keeping in view the ideal current ratio. However in 2013, the

same has raised to 1.18:1 which is more than the ideal current ratio.

Inference:

The ideal current ratio is 1:1. This means that the content of current

assets should be same as the content of current liabilities of the

company.

Although from 2009-2012, the actual current ratio is not meeting the

ideal current ratio and it shows that the content of company’s asset is

less than the content of its current liabilities.

But In 2013, the current ratio is 1.18:1. This is a favorable situation

for the company as it shows that its current assets are more as

compared to the current liabilities.

Interpretation 11:

The above table shows the quick ratio which has declined from 2009

onwards. However in 2013, the same has raised to 1.02:1 which is

more than the ideal quick ratio.

Inference:

Page 57: project of finance analysis

57

The ideal current ratio is 1:1. This means that the content of quick

assets should be same as the content of current liabilities of the

company.

Although from 2009-2012, the actual quick ratio is not meeting the

ideal current ratio and it shows that the content of company’s asset is

less than the content of its current liabilities.

But In 2013, the current ratio is 1.02:1. This is a favorable situation

for the company as it shows that its quick assets are more as compared

to the current liabilities

Interpretation 12:

The above table shows the Stock Turnover Ratio (STR).

In 2009 and 2010 respectively, there are no opening stock and closing

stock of the company. Hence there is no STR.

The STR of the company has increased from 2011 onwards.

Inference:

As such there is no ideal STR. The higher is this ratio, the better it is.

Page 60: project of finance analysis

60

Although there is no STR in 2009 and 2010 respectively, but from

2011 onwards the firm has observed an increased STR which is a

positive sign for the company indicating quick sales of its products.

Debtor Turnover Ratio (DTR) : It establishes the relationship between net

credit sales and the average debtors

Interpretation 13:

The above table shows the Debtor’s Turnover Ratio (DTR).

In 2009, DTR is 9.15 times but in 2010, it fell to 6.08 times.

In 2011, DTR is 9.8 times which is more than that of 2010 (6.08

times) but less than that of 2009.

In 2012 and 2013 respectively, there are no debtors. Hence there is no

DTR.

The approx average collection period in 2009 is approx. 1.3 months.

Page 63: project of finance analysis

63

The approx average collection period in 2010 is approx. 1.9 months.

The approx average collection period in 2011 is approx. 1.2 months.

Inference:

As such there is no ideal DTR. The higher is this ratio, the better it is.

Although there is no DTR in 2009 and 2010 respectively, but from

2011 onwards the firm has observed an increased DTR which is a

positive sign for the company indicating highly liquid accounts

recievables.

The Average Collection Period (ACP) should be as low as possible.

ProvibTech India’s ideal ACP is less than 2 months in the financial

years.

And the chart, clearly indicates that the company’s actual ACPs is less

than 2 months i.e. these are meeting with the ideal ACP. Hence, a

positive situation for the company.

Interpretation 14:

The above table shows the Creditor’s Turnover Ratio (CTR).

In 2009, CTR is lowest but in 2010 and 2011, it is maximum and

constant.

In 2012 and 2013 respectively, there are no credit sales. However in

both the years bills payable exists. Whereas trade creditors are there

in the former and not in the latter.

Page 67: project of finance analysis

67

The approx average payment period in 2009 is approx. 1.19 days.

The approx average payment period in 2010 is approx. 1.91 days.

The approx average payment period in 2011 is approx. 1.91 days.

Inference:

The ideal CTR is neither too low nor too high.

Although there is no CTR in 2012 and 2013 respectively, but from

2009 onwards the firm has observed an increased CTR which is a

positive sign for the company indicating the credit worthiness of the

company.

The Average Collection Period (ACP) should be as shorter as

possible. ProvibTech India’s ideal ACP is 3 days and in the chart it

clearly indicates that ACP is less than 3 days.

It shows that the company is meeting its ideal CTP/ACP.

Fixed Assets Ratio (FAR): It indicates the efficiency of the fixed assets

towards contribution to sales.

The above table shows the Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio (FATR).

In 2009, FATR is lowest but in 2010 onwards, it started increase with

every efficient contribution to sales of the company.

In 2012, the company has witnessed the maximum FATR of 19.06

times.

In this year (2013), this has fallen down to 16.9 times.

Inference:

As such there is no ideal FATR. The higher is this ratio, the better it

is.

ProvibTech India’s FATR has increased in every financial year.

However in 2013, the same has fallen down as compared to that of the

previous year. But still it is satisfactory.

The company is meeting its ideal FATR and this indicates the higher

efficiency in the utilization of the fixed assets.

Interpretation 16:

The above table shows the Proprietory Ratio of ProvibTech India.

Page 72: project of finance analysis

72

In 2011, Proprietory Ratio is lowest but in 2013, it started increasing

with increase in the fixed assets of the company.

In 2012, the company has witnessed the maximum Proprietory Ratio

of 0.17 times.

In this year (2013), this has fallen down to 0.10 times.

Inference:

As such there is no ideal Proprietory Ratio. The higher is this ratio,

the better it is.

ProvibTech India’s Proprietory Ratio has not increased in a stable

manner. This shows that the creditors can be suspicious about the

repayment of their debt which indicates greater risk to the creditors.

As seen in the chart, all the Proprietory Ratios of the company are

below 50%. This is quite alarming to the creditors.

Page 73: project of finance analysis

7. FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS OF THE STUDY

FINDINGS :

ProvibTech India’s cash flow from operating activities i.e. revenue from

sales has increased in 2013.

There are certain heads of the company which are negatively influenced viz.

EAT, Gross Profit and Net Profit due to increased operating expenditure and

it is more than the total revenue of the company.

Page 74: project of finance analysis

74

The company has sufficient and infact a good composition of current assets

in its assets portfolio. This shows that the liquidity position of the company

is strong.

In This year (2013), the company has incurred a long term liability in the

form of an unsecured loan.

The liquidity ratios of the company are showing its favourable liquidity

position.

The activity/turnover ratios of the company are showing positive signs.

In this year (2013), the company has no debtors because of which its DTR

could not be ascertained.

In this year (2013), the company has no creditors because of which its CTR

could not be ascertained.

Proprietory Ratios of ProvibTech India over the years may indicate a quite

alarming for its future creditors.

CONCLUSIONS:

Financial analysis is the process of selection, relation and evaluation. The

focus of financial analysis is on key figure in the financial statements and the

significant relationship that exist between them.

The analysis of financial statements is a process of evaluating the

relationship between component part of financial statement to obtain a

better understanding of the firm’s position and performance.

Page 76: project of finance analysis

This financial analysis is done using the tools like ratio analysis and

common size balance sheet. These tools show us the company position in

terms of liquidity, profitability, solvency, bankruptcy and stability.

By using these tools we came to a conclusion that the firm should improve

its sales by improving its marketing technique like advertisement in

newspaper, television, radio etc. so that it can gain goodwill and publicity.

The company should produce products that competes the competitors and

make available to public at a reasonable rate and time. Even it should use the

present new technology and improve the consumption of resource

efficiently.

Since it’s a Private Ltd. firm and cannot generate additional funds from

public issue of shares, it may go for long term debt/loan from banks to fulfill

its funding requirements.

In the changing economy scenario the financial performance has to be better.

Even though the firm’s profitability, liquidity and other positions are

satisfactory it can even reach higher position or increase its profit if the

above said suggestion are considered.

Page 77: project of finance analysis

8. RECOMMENDATIONS

The company may undertake measures to control its operating expenditure

since from the last few financial years it has incurred more operating

expenditure than its total revenue which has resulted into negative profits.

Since ProvibTech is a Pvt. Ltd. Company so it may raise additional funds

from the bank to undertake marketing initiatives for its brand promotion. It

may help it increasing its sales.

The creditors may find become suspicious about the unsecured loan taken up

by the company in 2013 only because the company’s proprietory ratio is not

Page 78: project of finance analysis

78

satisfactory. So, it may keep some amount as reserves to meet unforeseen

circumstances in the future.

In 2011, the company’s DTR has fallen down as compared to its previous

financial years. Consequently, In 2012 and 2013, there are no debtors of the

company because of which its DTR is nil. Ideally, DTR should be as high as

possible. But low or no debtors indicates that the company has no accounts

recievables in its current asset portfolio. So the company may decide to

change this situation and may opt for liberal credit policy but it should

neither be too liberal nor too restrictive.

In the past financial year as well as in this current year (2013), there are no

trade creditors of the company because of which its CTR is nil. It indicates

that the company has no short term creditors.

Low or no trade creditors seems as a good indicator that the company is

operating with good liquidity, provided that its liquid assets are sufficient

enough to do so.

In 2011, the CTR of the company is high as compared to that in the previous

year. However the average credit period allowed by its suppliers is same as

it was in the previous year. So the company may change this situation and its

CTR should neither be too low or too high.
