Assignment V - Financial Statement Analysis
Q.1 From the following particulars relating to AB Co. prepare a Balance Sheet as on 31.12.2009:
Fixed assets / turnover ratio 1:2
Debt collection period Two months
Gross profit 25%
Consumption of raw materials 40% of cost
Stock of Raw materials 4 months consumption
Finished goods 20% of turnover at cost
Fixed Assets to Current Assets 1:1
Current Ratio 2:1
Long Term loan to current Liability 1:3
Capital to Reserve 5:2
Value of Fixed Assets Rs. 10,50,000
Solution:
Fixed Assets = Rs. 10,50,000
Fixed assets / turnover ratio = Fixed assets / Sales =1:2
 Sales = Rs 21,00,000
Fixed assets / current assets = 1:1
 Current assets = Rs 10,50,000
Gross Profit = 25% * Sales
 Gross Profit = Rs 5,25,000
Cost of Goods Sold = Sales – Gross Profit
 Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = Rs 15,75,000
Consumption of raw material = 40% * COGS
 Consumption of raw material = Rs 6,30,000
Stock of raw material = COGS /12 *4
 Stock of raw material = Rs 2,10,000
Finished goods = 20% * COGS
 Finished goods = Rs 3,15,000
Debt Collection Period = Average debtors * 12 / Net Credit Sales
 Average Debtors = Net credit Sales/12 * debt collection period
 Average debtors = Rs 21,00,000 * 2/12
 Average debtors = Rs 3,50,000
Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities = 2 :1
 Current Liabilities = Rs 5,25,000

Long term loan to current liability = 1: 3
 Long term loan = Rs 1,75,000
Total Assets = Fixed Assets + Current Assets = Rs 21,00,000
 Total Liabilities = Rs 21,00,000
 Networth = ESC + R&S = Total Liabilities – Current Liabilities – Long Term Debt
 Networth = 21,00,000 - 5,25,000 - 1,75,000
 Capital + Reserves & Surplus = Rs 14,00,000
Capital to Reserves = 5:2
 Capital = Rs 10,00,000
 Reserves = Rs 4,00,000

Q.2 From the following particulars prepare the Balance Sheet of A Ltd.:
Current Ratio 1.50
Current Assets/Fixed Assets 1:2
Fixed Assets to turnover 1:1
Gross Profit 25%
Debtors Velocity 2 months
Creditors Velocity 2 months
Stock Velocity 3 months
Debt equity ratio 2:5
Working Capital Rs. 2,00,000
Solution:
Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities = Rs 2,00,000
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities
=> Current Assets = Rs 6,00,000
=> Current Liabilities = Rs 4,00,000
Current Assets to Fixed Assets = 1: 2
 Fixed Assets = Rs 12,00,000
 Total Assets = Total Liabilities = Rs 18,00,000
Fixed Assets to Turnover = 1:1
 Turnover = Sales = Rs 12,00,000
 Gross Profit = 25* Sales = Rs 4,00,000
Debtors Velocity = 2 months
 Debtors = 12,00,000 /12 *2 = Rs 2,00,000
Creditors Velocity = 2 months
 Creditors = Rs 9,00,000 /12 * 2 = Rs 1,50,000
Stock Velocity = 3 months
 Stock = Rs 9,00,000 /12 * 3 = Rs 2,25,000
Debt to Equity Ratio = 2: 5
& Debt + Equity = Total Liabilities – Creditors = 18,00,000 – 4,00,000 = 14,00,000
 Debt = Rs 4,00,000
 Equity = Rs 10,00,000
Balance Sheet of A Limited
Equity Rs 10,00,000 Fixed Assets Rs 12,00,000

Q.3 From the following information, you are required to prepare a Balance Sheet:
Current Ratio 1.75
Liquid Ratio 1.25
Stock Turnover ratio (Closing Stock) 9
Gross profit ratio 25%
Debt collection period 1.50 months
Reserves and surplus to capital 0.20
Turnover to fixed assets 1.20
Fixed assets to net worth 1.25
Sales for the year Rs. 12,00,000
Solution:
Sales (Turnover) = Rs 12,00,000
Turnover to Fixed Assets = 1.2
 Fixed Assets = Rs 10,00,000
Fixed Assets to Networth = 1.25
 Networth = Rs 8,00,000 = Reserves & Surplus + Capital
Gross Profit = 25 * Sales = Rs 3,00,000
Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) = Sales – Gross Profit
Stock Turnover ratio = 9
 Stock = 9,00,000/9 = Rs 1,00,000
Debt Collection Period = 1.5 Months
 Debtors = 12,00,000/12*1.5 = Rs 1,50,000
Reserves & Surplus to Capital = 0.2
 Capital = Rs 6,66,667
 Reserves & Surplus = Rs 1,33,333
Current Ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities = 1.75
Liquid Ratio = (Current Assets – Stock ) / Current Liabilities = 1.25
 (1.75 CL – 1,00,000) / CL =1.25
 Current Assets = Rs 3,50,000
 Total Assets = Fixed Assets + Current Assets = Rs 13,50,000
 Long Term Liabilities = Total Liabilities – Current Liabilities – Networth
 Long Term Liabilities = 13,50,000 – 2,00,000 – 8,00,000 = Rs 3,50,000

Balance Sheet
Networth Rs 8,00,000 Fixed Assets Rs 10,00,000

Ratio =0.56 =1.18
Mr Desai should prefer to deal with B Ltd. Reasons are mentioned below: -
1. Quick ratio of 1.18 of B Ltd is better than .56 of A Ltd.
2. Credit Payment Period of 3 months of B Ltd is better than 4 months of A Ltd.
3. Current ratio of 2.5 of A Ltd is better than 1.5 of B Ltd.
Since stock can not be converted into cash quickly, quick ratio and credit payment period of
B Ltd are more important in view of requirement of Mr Desai. Therefore, he must choose B
Ltd for dealing.

objectives had been achieved.
Solution:

ratio (2009)
Stock turnover =3,40,000*2/(2,10,000+1,30,000) 4

Stock 2,10,000 1,50,000
Cash Sales / Credit Sales 1:4 1:2

Director’s Remuneration 10,000 25,000
Gross Profit to Sales 15% 20%
Trade Creditors to Closing Stock =1,40,000/2,10,000 66.67%
=66.67%
Debtors to Credit Sales 1:2 1:2
General Expenses 20,900 20,900
Depreciation 13,100 13,100
Solution:
Since Stock in 2009 = Rs 1,50,000
 Cost of goods sold = Rs (2,10,000+1,50,000)/2 * 4 = Rs 7,20,000
Let Sales be x
=> 20%x = x – 7,20,000
=> Sales = Rs 9,00,000
=> GP = Rs 1,80,000

You are required to interpret the above statement using significant accounting ratios.
Solution:
Following are the five steps in examining the performance of the company in the year 2008 as
compared to the year 2007.
Step 1: Calculation of the ratios
Financial Ratio 2008 2007
Return on Capital =(19.5+1.2)/(60+29.25+15) =(15+1.2)/(60+24+15)
Employed (RoCE) =19.86 % =16.36%
Net Profit Ratio (NPR) =19.5/225*100% =15/180*100%
=8.67% =8.34%
Capital Employed Turnover =225/(60+29.25+15) =180/(60+24+15)
Ratio (CETR) =2.16 =1.82
Current Ratio (CR) =85.5/63.75 =70.5/37.5
=1.34 =1.88
Stock Turnover Ratio (STR) =162/42.75 =135/31.5
=3.79 =4.29
Average Collection Period =41.25/225*365 =30/180*365
(ACP) =66.91 Days= ~67 days =60.83 Days = ~61 days
Debt / Equity Ratio (D/E) =15/89.25 =15/84
=.17 =.18
Earning per share (EPS) =11,25,000/60,000 =8,70,000/60,000
=18.75 =14.5
Dividend payout ratio (DPS =(6,00,000/60,000)/18.75*100% =(4,50,000/60,000)/14.5*100%
/ EPS) =53.33% =51.72%
Gross Profit Ratio (GPR) =63/225*100% =45/180*100%
=28% =25%

2. Comment on Individual Ratios: -
1. Return on Capital Employed (RoCE) has increased from 16.36% in 2007 to 19.86%
in 2008. This is achieved with the help of increased profitability on sales and more
efficient utilization of capital employed.

2. Net Profit Ratio (NPR) has increased from 8.34% in 2007 to 8.67% in 2008. This is
achieved with the help of increased profitability on sales.
3. Capital employed turnover ratio (CETR) has increased from 1.82 in 2007 to 2.16 in
2008. This is increased with the help of more efficient use of capital employed.
4. Current ratio (CR) has decrease to 1.34 in 2008 from 1.88 in 2007. This indicates that
Working Capital Management (WC Mgt) of the company is not showing healthy signs.
The reason for decline in CR is financing fixed assets out of working capital (WC).
During the year, there is substantial increase in fixed assets without any efforts to raise
long term funds. Long term funds have increased by 5.25 lacs on account of retained
profits.
5. Stock Turnover ratio (STR) has decreased from 4.29 in 2007 to 3.79 in 2008. This
indicates that Stock is not being efficiently utilized.
6. Average Collection Period (ACP) has increased to 67 days in 2008 from 61 days in
2007. This indicates poor collection as compared to previous year.
7. There is no noticeable change in debt/equity ratio. The debt/equity ratio (.18) of the
company is low which indicates presence of less long term debt as compared to equity
capital.
8. Earning per share (EPS) has increased to 18.75 in 2008 from 14.5 in 2007 (growth of
29.31% over previous year) indicates healthy growth of EPS.
9. Dividend payout ratio (DPR) has increased to 53.33% in 2008 from 51.72% in 2007
which is not a healthy sign in view of difficult working capital situation of the company.
Dividend per share (DPS) has increased to 10 in 2008 from 7.5 in 2007.
10. Gross profit ratio (GPR) has increase to 28% in 2008 from 25% in 2007 which
indicates 12% y/y growth in gross profit ratio.

Step 3: Critical Appraisal
The profitability of the company increased in account of increase in sales. Overheads have
increased considerably.
Working capital management is not satisfactory. Dividend payout should not have been so high
in view of working capital problems.

Step 4: Overall Performance
Overall performance of the company is satisfactory (RoCE has improved)

Step 5: Suggestion for the future
1. Try to improve working capital situation.
2. Try to control the overheads.
3. Funds may be raised through debentures, long term loans etc as the company’s
debt/equity ratio is low. Such funds may be used to improve working capital situation and
also for expansion and diversification of the business.

Make a through overall analysis of this company.

Solution:
Step 1: Calculation of Financial Ratios
S. No. Financial ratio 2008 2007
1 Return on Capital Employed =(1.608- =(1.216-.3)/(2+.4+.04+1.6)
(RoCE) .2)/(2+.2+.28+2.2) =22.67%
=30.09%
2 Net Profit Ratio (NPR) =.68/10*100% =.54/12*100%
=6.8% =4.5%
3 Capital Employed Turnover =10/(2+.2+.28+2.2) =12/(2+.4+.04+1.6)
Ratio (CETR) =2.14 =2.97
4 Current Ratio (CR) =(.6+.8+.6)/(.6+.68+.2) =(1.2+1.6+.04)/(1.8+.26+.3)
=1.35 =1.20
5 Stock Turnover Ratio (STR) =(10-1.608)/.6 =(12-1.216)/1.2
=13.99 =8.99
6 Average Collection Period =.8/10*365 =1.6/12*365
(ACP) =29.2 Days =48.67 Days
7 Debt / Equity Ratio (D/E) =2.20/2.48 =1.6/2.44
=.89 =.66
8 Earning per share (EPS) =68,000/2000 =54,000/2000
=34 =27
9 Dividend payout ratio (DPS / =.2/.68 =.3/.54
EPS) =29.41% =55.56%
10 Gross Profit Ratio (GPR) =.1.608/10*100% =1.216/12*100%
=16.08% =10.13%

Step 2: Comments on individual ratios
1. Sales have decreased to 10 lacs in 2008 from 12 lacs in 2007. This is not a positive
signal since topline has decreased by 16.67% y/y.
2. Return of Capital Employed (RoCE) has increased by 32.73% to 30.09% in 2008
from 22.67% in 2007. This is attributed to higher return on sales and but less efficient
utilization of capital employed.
3. Net Profit Ratio (NPR) has increased to 6.8% in 2008 from 4.5% in 2007. This is a
healthy signal since profitability on sales has increased 51.11% y/y basis.
4. Capital Employed Turnover Ratio (CETR) has decreased to 2.14 in 2008 from 2.97
in 2007. This is not a healthy signal since CETR has decreased by 28%.

5. Current Ratio has increased by 12.5% to 1.35 in 2008 from 1.20 in 2007.. This
indicates that current assets have increased more w.r.t. current liabilities and is a healthy
signal.
6. Stock Turnover Ratio (STR) has increased to 13.99 in 2008 from 7.08 in 2007 which
is a healthy signal since stock activity has improved compared to cost of goods sold.
7. Average Collection Period (ACP) has decreased to 29.2 days from 48.67 days which
indicates that collection of credit sales has improved as compared to previous year and
cash is collected faster.
8. Debt / Equity Ratio has increased to .88 in 2008 from .66 in 2007 which indicates that
company has raised long term debt (Mortgage debt) to finance its activities in the year
2008.
9. Earning per share (EPS) has increased to 34 in 2008 from 27 in 2007 which is a
healthy sign since EPS growth is a strong signal for investors and creditors for the
business.
10. Dividend payout ratio (DPR) has decreased to 29.41% in 2008 from 55.56% in 2007
which indicates that company prefers to retain its profits for future expansions.
11. Gross Profit Ratio (GPR) has increased to 16.08% in 2008 from 10.13% in 2007
which is 58.74% increase on y/y basis. This indicates that overall profitability of the
business has significantly improved.

Step 3: Critical Appraisal
It is noticed that sales have decreased but all other performance indicators for the company have
significantly improved over previous year. 32.73% increase in RoCE is surely a very good
performance indicator of increased profitability. CETR decreased indicates less efficient
utilization of resources. Improved current ratio, lower collection period and higher stock turnover
ratio indicated enhanced activity in many aspects of the business. It seems that the firm is poised
for rapid growth path.

Step 4: Overall Performance
The overall performance of the company is good. Since all major indicators are better but sales
and CETR have decreased over previous year.

Step 5: Suggestions for the future
The company should improve the utilization of resources. It is required to improve turnover to
increase topline growth.
