INTRODUCTION

Agriculture constitutes backbone of Indian Economy & in spite of

congested industrialization in the last four decades; Agriculture still occupies a place of

significance. Being the largest sector of the economic activity, it is the source of

livelihood for over 70 % of the population in the economy. Agricultures accelerate the

economic development to a very large proportion of population, capital for its own

development and surplus for investment in other productive sectors.

It is well known that agricultural production is the combined effect of a

variety of implements, fertilizers, irrigation, farm machinery, high yielding varieties of

seeds, etc….All these inputs in one way or another contribute to increasing in

productivity of agriculture & form under one. But these inputs become more effective

and their potential is better utilized if appropriate energy and power sources are made

available to the farmer.

The manufacturing of these agricultural implements & plays a dominant

role in small scale industrial sector of Kerala economy. This industry generally is

included in the agro based category units of small scale units. There are nearly

100small scale agricultural implements tools manufacturing units in KERALA. The main

location of these units is at SHORANUR at PALAKKAD District, {70% are at

SHORANUR itself}. The remaining units are spread over various parts of the state

Rs6Crores .The industry provides employment to nearly 300 people in this sector. The

machinery & equipments, investment, labour etc are required for small units. The

industry has been included in small scale units because it requires less investment when

compared to other large scale industries and also less technological background for

manufacturing process. The system of marketing agricultural implements is through

agents appointed at various parts of the country on commission basis. The products are

sold both inside & outside KERALA.

They are the statements showing the financial position and the results of business

operation at the end of the accounting period. It is prepared on the basis of recorded

facts .The statements are prepared for a particular period, generally once in a year

According to John .N. Myer,” the financial statement provide a

summary of accounts of a business enterprise in the balance sheet reflecting the assets,

liabilities and capitals as on certain date and the income statements showing the results of

operations during a certain period. Financial statements are the outcome of summarizing

process of accounting.

Financial analysis refers to the process of determining financial strength

and weakness of the firm by establishing the strategic relationship between the items of

the Balance Sheet, Profit &Loss account and other operative data .It is the use of

financial statements to analyze a company’s financial position and performance and to

assess future financial performance. It is a technique of X-raying the financial position as

In the words of John .N. Myer “Financial statements 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 the trend of these factors in a series of statements.”

The analysis and interpretation of financial statements is used to

determine the financial position and operation as well.

For analyzing and interpreting the financial statements, some important

tools used they are as follows.

COMPARATIVE STATEMENTS The comparative financial statements are statements

which show the financial position of a firm at different period of time. The changes in

financial data are best understood if the statements of two or more years are placed side

gross profit. It gives an idea of a progress of a business over a period of time. The

changes in absolute data and money value and percentages can be determined to analyze

the profitability of the business.

Comparative Income Statement has four columns. First two columns

give figures of various items for two years. Third and fourth columns are used to show

increase or decrease in figures in absolute amounts and percentages respectively.

The increase or decrease in sales will be comparative with increase or

decrease in cost of goods sold. The second step of analysis should be the study of

operational profit .The increase or decrease in net profit will gave you an idea about

overall profitability. Thus an opinion is formed about profitability, i.e. whether good or

not.

INTREPRETATION

1. The excess of current assets over current liabilities gives the working capital.

Both 2006-07 and 2007-08 shows that current assets exceed current liabilities.

30 Saja.K.A

Page 31: Simco Finance Project

The working capital in the year 2006-07 was Rs 76,68304.93 and in 07-08 Rs

73,54,154.16. The working capital shows short term financial position of the

concern.

2. The inventories of the firm decreased by 6.06% as compared to 2006-07.This

indicates that there is no accumulation of inventory. The sundry debtors and

loans and advances increased by Rs 6, 52,135.6 and Rs 47,484 cash and bank

balances of the firm decreased by 47.14% compared to previous year. This

shows a decrease in the liquidity position of the firm

3. The figure of fixed assets and long term liabilities and capital reflect the long

term financial position o f the firm. Long term sources are used for financing

not only fixed assets but also a part of working capital. It is better to finance

fixed assets by raising long term funds.

4. The fixed assets increased by Rs 6,763.15 in the 2007-08 compared to

previous year. Long term liabilities shoe decrease of 4.14%.

5. The firm has no reserve and surpluses. This will adversely affect their

profitability. In the absence of reserves and surplus the firm has to depend on

external sources in the event of an emergency. This will create problem for

partners.

TREND ANALYSIS

The financial statement may be analyzed by computing trends of

series of information. This method determines whether the direction is upward or

downward and involves in the computation of the percentage relationship that each item

bears to the same item in the base year is taken as base year. The figures of the base year

are taken as base year. The figures of the base year are taken as 100 and trend ratio for

other years calculated on the basis of the base year

INTERPRETATION

Trend Analysis or trend percentage above has clearly given an idea about

sales, cost and profit of five years i.e. 2003-04,2004-05,006-07 and 2007-08.Sales of

2003-04 is taken as base year sales have been decreased in 204-05 when compared to the

base year. In the year 2005-06 sales have been increased by 19.04.I the year 2006-2007

trend percentage of sales is 113.62%.In the year 2007-08 sales has been increased

by132.18%.Trend analysis of sales shows both increasing as well as decreasing trend.

Cost of 2003-04 is taken as a base year. In the year 2004-05 trend

percentage of cost is 94.26% which is lower than the base year. But cost has increased by

34.74%, 31.55% and 52.36% in 2006-07 and 2007-08 respectively. Cost has increased

except in the year 2004-05

2003-04 is taken as the base year. Profit was highest in the year 2005-06.In

the year 2005-06 profit has been increased by 33.145.The profit has decreased except in

the year 2005-06.Profit shows a decreasing trend. The firm has no control over the cost.

Because of this an increasing cost adversely affected the profit.

COMMON SIZE STATEMENTS

The common size statements are shown in analytical

percentages. The figures are shown as percentages of total assets, total liabilities and total

sales. The total assets are taken as 100 and different assets are expressed as a part of total.

Similarly various liabilities are taken as a part of total liabilities. These statements are

also known as component percentage or 100 percent statement because every individual

item is expressed as total percentage of 100.The analyst is able to asses the figures in

relation to total values. The common size statements may be common size income

statements and common size balance sheet.

COMMON SIZE INCOME STATEMENTS.

A statement in which each expenses item is shown as a

percentage of net sales is called common size income statements. A sales figure is

assured to be 100 % and all percentage and all figures are shown as percentage of net

sales. The items in income statements can be shown as percentage of sales to show the

relation of each item to sales. A significant relation ship can be established between items

of income statements and volume of sales. The increasing sales will certainly increase

selling expenses and not administrative or financial expenses. In case the volume of sales

increases to a considerable extent, administrative and financial expenses should be

reduced at once. So a relationship is established between sales and other items in income

statement and the relationship is helpful in evaluating operational activities of the

enterprise.

The table shows the sale of 5 years and its relationship

with other figures. The sales vary from year to year. The sales in the year 2003-2004 was

Rs 1,63,16,381.37 which reduced to Rs 1,51,25,231.49 in the year 2004-05.But sales of

2005-06 shows an increasing trend and sales reached Rs 1,94,23,836,66.After a decrease

of Rs 18538693.38 in 2006-07 sales increased to Rs 2,15,67,735.45 in 2007-08.These

variation in sales may be due to the changes in marketing strategy adopted by the firm.

A comparison between sales and cost of goods sold gives a clear

picture of the firm’s position .In 2003-04 the cost of goods sold was Rs 10,90,6701.16

which was 66.84% of sales. In 200-05 the sale was decreased to Rs 1,51,25,231.49.But

the cost of goods sold was Rs10281012.31 which was 67.97% of sales. It resulted in a

decrease in gross profit of Rs 3,71,225.03 cost of goods sold was increased in 2005-

CHAPTER – 4

RATIO ANALYSIS OF SIMCO

Ratio Analysis is one of the methods of analyzing financial statement.

It is means of under standing better the financial strength soundness, weakness or

position of a firm.

According to Myer, Ratio Analysis is a study of relationship among the

various financial factors in a business. It is a process of establishing a meaningful

relationship between tow figures as a set of figures of a financial statement. Ratio can be

expressed in three ways. It may be expressed in times. If the quotient is multiplied by

hundred, it is expressed as percentage. It may also be expressed in terms of proportion

between tow figures. Thus, times percentage and proportion are three ways of expressing

ratios.

ADVANTAGE OR USES OF RATIO ANALYSIS

The use of Ratio Analysis as a tool of financial analysis has been

considerably increased in these days. Ration analysis can be of very valuable aid to

management in the discharge of its basic function of planning, forecasting, coordination,

communication and control. It is a devise to diagnose the disease of an enterprise. It is a

powerful tool of financial analysis. The advantages of Ratio Analysis is summarized as

below.

1. Ratios are helpful in judging financial performance of an enterprise over a

period of time. They tell the various aspects of management performance

and the overall financial position.

2. A study of the trend of strategic ratios may help the management in the task

of planning and forecasting.

39 Saja.K.A

Page 40: Simco Finance Project

3. The ratio measures the efficiency of operation of an enterprise. Hence they

can be used as tool of management control.

4. Ratio facilitate interfirm comparison

5. It is possible to test the liquidity, solvency and profitability of the enterprise

through the technique of ratio analysis.

6. Some times, investment decisions are guided by certain ratios.

7. Ratio Analysis simplifies the comprehension of financial statement

8. Ratio Analysis communicate the financial strength or weakness of firm in a

more easy and understandable manner.

9. Thus, ratio analysis gives valuable information not only to management but

also to creditors, investors and share holders.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS

On the basis of purpose, Ratio may be classified as under

1. Profitability Ratios

2. Turn over Ratios.

3. Financial Ratio

a) Liquidity or Short – term financial ratios

b) Solvency or Long – term financial ratio

ANALYSIS OF PROFITABILITY OF SIMCO

The ultimate aim of any business enterprise is to earn

maximum profit. Lord Keynes remarked, Profit is the engine that derives the business

enterprises. A firm should earn profit to survive and grow over a long period of time. To

the management profit is the measure of efficiency and control. To the owner, it is

measure worth of their investment. To the creditors it is the margin of safety. The

management of the company should know how efficiently they carry on business

40 Saja.K.A

Page 41: Simco Finance Project

operations. In other words the management of the company is very much interested in

the profitability of the company. Besides management, creditors and owners are also

interested in the profitability of the company.

The profitability of a firm can be easily measured by its profitability

ratios. Profitability ratio measures the ability of the firm to earn an adequate return on

sales, total assets and invested capital. Profitability ratios are generally calculated either

in relation to sales or in relation to investment.

PROFITABLILTIY RATIOS BASED ON SALES

The general profitability ratios based on sales are gross profit ratio,

net profit ratio, operating profit ratios and expenses ratio.

GROSS PROFIT RATIO

Gross profit ratios show the relationship between gross profit to sales. To

calculate this ratio gross profit and net sales are required. This ratio indicates the

efficiency of production or trading operations. It is useful to as certain whether the

average percent age of mark up on the goods sold is maintained. A higher gross profit

ratio is always favorable to the firm.

Page 43: Simco Finance Project

The above bar diagram clearly indicates the Gross profit Ratio for the last

Five years. It indicates the margin of profits on sales. Gross profit ratio in the ear 2003 –

04 was the highest in 28.23%. Then it started decreasing. In the year 2007-08 Gross

profit ratio was 22.95%. Decrease in gross in gross profit ratios is mainly due to inability

of the management to improve the volume of sales and decrease in selling price with out

corresponding decrease in the cost of goods sold.

NET PROFIT RATIO

Net profit ratio is the ratio of net profit earned by a business to its net sales.

Net profit or net income is calculated by deducting the selling and distribution expense

and financial expenses from gorses profit. It measures over all profit it ability. It is

calculated as follows.

Net profit = Net Profit

-------------X100

Net Sales

Net profit = Gross Profit + Operating and non operating income – Operating and

non operating expenses.

INTERPRETATION

Net profit ratio indicates management efficiency in manufacturing

administrating and selling the products. This is a measure of over all profitability. Net

profit ratio was the highest in the year 2005-06 ie 5.04%. But in the next year it again

decreased to 2.28% and in the 2007-08 net profit ratio was 2.56%. a low net profit ratio

would mean low efficiency and in adequate returns to the owners

OPERATING RATIO

This ratio establishes the relationship between operating cost and net

sales. This ratio is used to test the operating efficiency of the firm. It is calculated by

using the following formula.

Operating ratio= Cost of goods sold + operating expenses

INTERPRETATION

The Operating Ratio of SIMCO indicates that for every Rs 100 % of

sales, cost of goods sold and operating expenses between 80% to 95%.

PROFITABILITY RATIO BASED ON INVESTMENT These ratios are computed on the basis of investment in business. Important over all

profitability ratios are return on investment, return on owners funds etc.

RETURN ON INVESTMENT

When a firm investment money in business it naturally expects

adequate return on its investment. Therefore the firm wants to know how much profit is

earning on its investment. It is for knowing this return on investment is computer. ROI

measures the over al profitability. It establishes the relationship between profit or return

and investment. It is computed as follows.

ROI = Profit it before interest and Tax

ANALYSIS OF ASSET MANAGEMENT OF SIMCO

Asset management is an important function of financial

management. In this chapter an attempt is made to analyze the efficiency of the

management in managing the assets. Turn over ratios is used to measure the efficiency of

effectiveness with which a firm manages its resources or assets.

49 Saja.K.A

Page 50: Simco Finance Project

TURN OVER RATIOS OR PERFOMANCE RATIOS OR ACTIVITY

RATIOS

These ratios indicate how effectively the resources are being utilized by

a firm. In other words, these ratios reflect the efficiency of a firm in the asset

management. Turn over ratios related to sales. Sales have divert relationship to the

performance of the business. Higher sales mean better performance which means better

efficiency and productivity of the business. Higher sales also mean, more production

which is the result of the best possible utilization of physical resources. Important turn

over ratio is the following.

Fixed Asset Turnover Ratios

Fixed assets are used in the business to produce goods for sale. The

effective utilization of fixed assets will result in increased production and reduced cost.

Fixed asset turn over ratio is calculated by establishing the relationship between net fixed

asset and sales (or cost of goods sold) of the concern. It is used to judge the effectiveness

of the use of fixed assets.This ratio assumes added significance in the case of

manufacturing concern like SIMCO. An increase in this ratio is the indicator of

efficiency, work performance and a decrease in this ratio speaks of unwise and improper

investment in fixed assets. However in the labour intensive industries it is exported to be

high and in capital intensive industries it is bound to be low.

As a rule of thumb fixed asset turn over ratio of 5 times is considered ideal. Fixed assets

turn over ratio is calculated by following formula.

Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio = Net sales

Page 52: Simco Finance Project

The above table indicates that from the year 2003 fixed asset turn over ratio is

showing an increasing trend and attained highest level of 36 times in 2005. The high

ratio is the sign of efficiency of fixed asset management. Another reason is SIMCO is a

labour intensive small scale unit.

Stock Turn over Ratio

Stock or Inventory Turn over ratio, measures how many times the average stock is sold

during the year. Higher inventory turn over ratio is always beneficial to the concern.

This ratio measures the effectiveness of the stock policy of the management. This ratio

indicates the relationship between cost of goods sold and average stock. This ratio is

calculated as follows.

Stock Turn over ratio = Cost of goods sold

------------------------

Average stock

Cost of goods sold = Opening stock + purchases – closing stock

Average stock = Openings stock +closing stock

2007-08 it was increased to 5.11 times

AVERAGE COLLECTION PERIOD

Average collection period indicates days in which debts are collected or

in other words, sales remain uncollected. This ratio is in fast interrelated with and

depended upon the receivable turnover ratio. It is calculated by dividing the days in a

year by the debtor’s turnover ratio.

Average collection period= Days in a year (360 or 365)

ANALYSIS OF LIQUIDITY OR SHORT TERM FINANCIAL

POSITION OF SIMCO

Liquidity means the firms liability to meet its current liabilities when they become due.

Christs and Roden defines the liquidity of an asset as money ness. Whether the liquidity

position of SIMCO is good or bad is analyzed by comparing the assets and liabilities of

SIMCO it can be analyzed by using various ratios.

LIQUIDITY RATIO

Liquidity ratio is used to measure the liquidity position or short tem financial

position of a firm. Various ratios like current ratio, liquid ratio and absolute liquid ratio

are used to measure the liquidity position of business.

1. CURRENT RATIO

Current ratio is defined as the ratio of current assets to current liabilities .It shows

the relation ship between total current assets and total current liabilities. Current ratio

is also called working capital ratio or banker’s ratio, generally current ratio of 2:1 is

considered satisfactory or ideal.

INTERPRETATION

Liquid Ratio is the ratio of Liquid Assets to current liabilities. It is

considered to be superior to current ratio in testing the liquidities of the firm. Standard

form of quick ratio is 1:1.Liquidity ratio above standard norm is good. Liquidity ratio

below 1:1 will not help to pay of its Current liabilities when they become due. From

2003-04 to 2007-08 Quick Ratio states that Liquid Liabilities can be easily paid off by

realizing Quick Assets without resorting to the sale of stock.

ABSOLUTE LIQUID RATIO

Although receivables i.e. debtors and bills receivable are generally more liquid

than inventories; there may be doubts regarding their realization into cash immediately or

in time. Therefore the absolute liquid ratio should also be calculated together with current

ratio and quick ratio. Absolute liquid ratio establishes the relationship between absolute

liquid assets and current liabilities

Absolute liquid assets=Cash in hand Cash at bank +Marketable securities

business in its financing. It is an index of the degree of protection the creditors have.

Standard Debt Equity Ratio is considered to be 2:1.Both high and low Debt Equity Ratio

is not desirable to firm. From above bar diagram, it is clear that in 2004-05 debt equity

ratio was very high which very risky.But they have improved a lot and by 2006-2007

FINDINGS SUGGESTIONS AND CONCLUSIONS

FINDINGS

Shoranur is the sale centre of Agricultural and Horticultural implements. There are a

number of firms engaged in the production of agricultural and horticultural implements.

Among them, SIMCO stands first due to its high quality products.

1. When compared with other firms SIMCO is the only concern which get regular

tenders for their products from Tamilnadu

2. Products of SIMCO are sold not only with in Kerala but ALSO outside the state.

In short, it has its market in all states of South India including Orissa.

3. Workers of SIMCO are very efficient and majority of them are able to produce

more than the standard fixed. But they are facing the problem of hiring skilled

labors. Hence, they hire unskilled labours and provide sufficient training. As such

employees are taking time to get acquainted with the methods of production and

machines used.

4. The company is purchasing raw materials at very high prices which in turn

increases the cost of goods and hence decreases the profit .

5. Net Profit position of the business is not at all satisfactory. The operating

expenses of the business are very high.

6. The operating profit ratio is not satisfactory.

7. In the year 2006-07 Return On Investment is below the standard norm.

8. Inventory management of the firm is not satisfactory

9. The collection of debtors is not effective .In 2006-07 the firm has taken 77 days to

collect the credit sales.

10. Creditor’s turnover ratio of the firm is satisfactory.

11. On analyzing working capital turn over ratio, it is understood that the

management of working capital is not efficient.

72 Saja.K.A

Page 73: Simco Finance Project

12. During all year under study, current ratio shows that is much above the standard

norm.

13. A major portion of the current asset is blocked in trade.

14. The liquid ratio in all years under study above standard norm.

15. On comparing the current ratio and liquid ratio, it is understood that the current

ratio is much higher than liquid ratio position. It is because of excessive

investments in stock in trade.

16. The absolute liquidity position of the firm is in pathetic condition.

17. Debt Equity Ratio of the firm comes near to standard by 2006-07, which indicates

high degree of protection to creditors. The firm makes use of loan funds to

purchase fixed assets by paying interest.

SUGGESTIONS

1. The over investments in stock is a notable defect. This can be over come by

taking necessary steps for improving the sales.

2. The cash position of the firm is not at all satisfactory. Sufficient cash balance

should be kept in the firm so as to keep the available favorable position.

3. Necessary steps have to be taken to make the working capital management more

effective.

4. The profitability of any business depends to a very depends to a very extent on the

capacity of it to enhance sales. So new marketing techniques have to be

introduced.

5. Profit earned by the firm shows both increasing and decreasing trend. Due to this

fluctuation, firm is suggested to make use of owned funds rather than outsiders

fund.

6. Unnecessary funds locked up in inventory and debtors should be invested in some

profitable project which in turn helps in the expansion of the firm.

73 Saja.K.A

Page 74: Simco Finance Project

7. Some of the item included in the product line of SIMCO is out dated. Therefore

new models or new versions of such items should be introduced and outdated

items should be excluded from the product line.

8. Firm is suggested to give more attention to garden tools which contribute a

sizeable portion of the profit to the firm.

9. Since the firm is facing the problem of labour absenteeism, it is suggested to take

necessary measures to reduce the same and also provide additional incentives

which in turn motivate them to work more efficiently and effectively.

10. Advertisement programme should be improved for the increase in sales. SIMCO

is facing more competition from other units, therefore the strength and weakness

of the competitors should be studied and new strategies should be prepared

accordingly.

11. Firm should take measures to purchase raw materials at lower prices which

directly affects profit of the firm.

CONCLUSION

The material for writing this project report was obtained

during the actual course of the allowed time period undergone at SIMCO,

Shoranur.The three weeks project helped me in getting a rare chance to familiarize

with the functioning of manufacturing organization .This project report enabled to

expose certain valuable conclusions pertaining to the short term and long term

liquidity position of the firm and its profitability. Though the firm has reached near

declining stage, but due to the importance of simple implements I agricultural sector,

it occupies the good position in small scale industries.

In short, this project report has given me an opportunity

to list and substantiate theoretical knowledge, which in turn facilitated its own

argumentation.
