1.1 OBJECT OF THE PROJECT

As per mandatory requirement of Pune University, I have

undertaken this project as a part fulfillment of Master of Business
Administration curriculum within 2 months training at XLO INDIA
LIMITED.

Each management student learns a lot during his 2 years of

MBA program, but the perfection in his learning can’t be even
imagined until & unless there is a practical training. The (summer)
project provides required practical training to student

1.2 SELECTION OF THE TOPIC FOR STUDY

Topic selection is the one of the most or one of the important

aspects of our project. As it decides the course of action, to be
followed. The topic selected should be such that it helps in
understanding the ratio concepts clearly, as was given the topic by
the company itself.

The topic given by my project guide was “RATIO

ANALYSIS AS PER THE FINACIAL STATEMENT OF XLO INDIA
LTD.” This covers all the things related to the Ratio Analysis
provided by the company.

7
OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

While going through any advertisement for recruitment it is

realized that any organization call for candidates with the main
condition of work experience. It is clear-cut mentioned in such
advertisement that preference would be given to candidates with
experience. This point out that practical exposure is extremely
important. So, right the University of Pune has taken right step by
making it mandatory for the students to do the project work in an
organization. This would help the student to get practical
knowledge along with the theoretical knowledge. The objectives of
the summer training are as follows:

 To be able to apply the theoretical knowledge obtained at

the institute in a practical manner in the actual business
environment.

 To get the knowledge about organizational problems,

perceptions and challenges.

 To get an opportunity of real life business experience.

 To interact with the managers of the company and gain

knowledge through their real life experience.

8
1.3 METHODOLOGY OF THE STUDY

The data collected for the project was in the form of written
as well as verbal information regarding ratio analysis of the
company.

1) Primary data: -
The information about the Company is gathered from the
discussion with the employees/staff and from the web site of the
Company.

2) Secondary data:-

The secondary data collected -

The balance sheets as on the date of 31st march for the years-
2003 – 2004
2004 – 2005
2005 - 2006

The methodology of this study has been adopted on the following basis:

• Study of various Journals, Notes & Books.

• Study through web-sites
• Collection of Primary & Secondary data records of the organization.
• Analysis of the collected data for its application.

9
1.5 LIMITATION OF THE STUDY

 Generally company does not allow outsiders to conduct any

study or research work in company. Therefore, get the project
done in company itself was very difficult.

 Due to confidentiality some important information, which are

important for the project, could not be collected.

 Some of the information is lack of accuracy, due to which

approximately values were used for the analysis. Hence, the results
also reveal approximate values.

 The project is based on theoretical guidelines and as per

situations prevalent at the time of practical training. Hence, it may
not be apply to different situations.

 The time span for the project was very short which was of 2
months, which itself acts as a major constraint. Moreover,
studying the guidelines and applied it practically within such
short time span was a task of great pressure.

10
1.6 UTILITY OF THE STUDY

MBA’s are known for their presentation skills and practical touch
to the theoretical knowledge and are counted in the professionals.

A profession is source of livelihood based on substantial body of

knowledge & its formal acquisition through practical training & its test of
success is the services rendered & not the profit earned thereon.

It reveals that the canon of any profession is placed on the ground

of theoretical knowledge as well as practical training.

Thus it becomes evident that the efforts to prepare this project

report are certainly going to be proved as a concrete foundation for our
future career.

Another aspect of this study is to get acquainted with ground

reality in the application of theoretical knowledge & to find out a way to
tackle with the situations.

2.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE ORGANISATION

Ex-Cell-O India Limited was formed in the year 1958 with

technical and equity participation (70%) from Ex-cell-o Corporation of
U.S.A with the objective of manufacturing machine tools.

The company manufactured these products with the following

technical collaborations -

1) Machine Tools – Ex-cell-o corporation ,U.S.A

2) Propellar Shafts – Hardy Spicer Ltd , U.K
3) Stearing Gears – Ross Gear Division of TRW Inc, U.S.A.

All these collaboration agreements have since expired. The above

three products were being manufactured by XLO INDIA LIMITED at only
one plant located at Thane, 35 kms. North of Bombay city till 1975. As
the country’s Automotive Sector was growing steadily XLO India went
for expansion & steering gears manufacturing activities were shifted
from Thane plant to the new plant at Satpur Industrial Estate at Nashik,
185kms from Bombay in mid -1975 whilethe machine tools & activities
continued in Thane plant itself.

In 1978, the company was Indianised & the name changed to

XLO INDIA LIMITED.

3.1 MEANING & DEFINITION

Ratio is simply one number expressed in terms of another; e.g.

the current assets and current liabilities of one company are Rs. 50000
and Rs. 30000 respectively. So the current assets to current liability
ratio will be 5:3. Thus, ratio is numerical presentation of two relevant
items.
Ratio analysis involves the use of various methods for calculating
and interpreting financial ratios to assess the performance and status of
the business unit. It is a tool of financial analysis, which studies the
numerical or quantitative relationship between two variables or items.

Definition:-

“A ratio analysis is a technique of ascertaining and interpreting the

numerical relationship of the two relevant items presented in the
financial statement.”

18
3.2 INTRODUCTION TO RATIO ANALYSIS

 CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS

Generally ratios are classified on the following basis.

Functional classification.

Now, Functional Classification is discussed brief

FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION:-

The functional classification of ratios considers the basic aspects

of business activity as under:

a) Liquidity Ratio

b) Profitability Ratio

c) Activity Ratio or Turnover Ratio

d) Leverage Ratio or Solvency Ratio

19
Liquidity: -

It’s ability to maintain positive cash flow, while satisfying

immediate obligations.

Profitability:-

It’s ability to earn income and sustain growth in both short term
and long term. A company’s degree of profitability is usually based on
the income statement, which reports on the company’s result of
operations.

Activity Ratio or Turnover Ratio:-

Which measure the efficient utilization of fixed and current assets.

Leverage Ratio or Solvency Ratio:-

It’s ability to maintain positive cash flow, while satisfying

immediate obligations.

20
Each group is discussed in detail as under:-

A) Liquidity Ratio:-
As noted above, these ratios measure the liquidity position
of the company, in liquidity ratio there are two types:-

a) Current Ratio

b) Liquid Ratio or Acid Test Ratio

a) Current Ratio :-

Current ratio measures the inter-relationship between

current assets the current liabilities. It is also known as working
capital ratio.

It is ascertained as under:-

Current Ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

b) Liquid Ratio:-

The quick ratio is sometimes called the “acid-test” ratio and

is one of the best measures of liquidity. It is figured as shown below:

Quick Ratio = Current Asset - Inventory

---------------------------------------
Current liabilities

21
 The quick ratio is a much more exacting measure than the current
ratio. By excluding inventories, it concentrates on the really liquid
assets, with value that is fairly certain. It helps answer the question.

An acid test of 1:1 is considered satisfactory unless the majority of

your “quick ratios” are in accounts receivable, and the pattern of
accounts receivable collection lags behind the schedule for paying
current liabilities.

Acid-test ratio is ascertained as under:-

Acid-test ratio = Liquid assets / Liquid liabilities

B) Profitability ratio:-

Profitability ratios are important because that touch the basic

objective of business activity. Generally following profit ratios are
ascertained for the purpose of interpretation of financial statements.

1. Gross profit ratio: - This is popularly known as G.P ratio, is

ascertained as under:-

G.P. ratio = Gross profit

------------------- x 100
Sale

G.P. = Sales - Cost of goods sold.

22
 2. Net profit ratio: - Popularly known as N.P. ratio, considers the net
profits to sales as under:

N.P. ratio = Net profits

------------------ X 100
Sales

Net profit = Sales – operating expenses.

As this is profitability ratio, higher the N.P. ratio better will be the
profitability on sales.

3. Return capital employed: - It is also called as rate of return.

It is ascertained as under:

Rate on capital employed = Net profit – Preference dividend

-----------------------------------------
X100
Equity capital

23
C) Activity Ratio or Turnover Ratio:-

Activity ratios are the productivity ratio which measure the

relationship of output (i.e. sales) and Inputs (i.e. individual assets).

The following are the important turnover ratio:

a) Inventory turnover ratio:-

It is also known as stock turnover ratio.
This ratio is measure the average investments in inventory in relation to
cost of goods sold.

It is ascertained as under:

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold

--------------------------------
Average inventory

Cost of good sold = sales - Gross profits

Average inventory = Opening inventory + closing inventory

-------------------------------------------------------
2

24
b) Assets turnover ratio:-
This ratio indicates the efficient utilization of all assets; i.e. fixed
assets and current assets. It is also called as “Capital turnover ratio.”

It is ascertained ad under:

Asset turnover = Sales/ Total assets.

Total assets =Fixed assets + Current assets.

c) Fixed asset turnover ratio: -

Among the total capital employed in the form of total assets,

this ratio measures the contribution of fixed assets in sales and the
resultant profitability.

It is ascertained as under:-

Fixed asset turnover ratio = Sales / Total fixed assets.

D) Leverage ratio:-
Leverage ratio measures the use of fixed-interest-bearing
securities in magnifying the return on equity capital. It is also called as
financial leverage on trading in equity or debt-equity ratio or capital-
gearing ratio.
It is ascertained as under:-

Debt- Equity ratio = Long term debt/ Equity (net worth)

Thus net worth = Equity capital + Reserves.

25
Proprietary ratio:
This ratio measures the proportionate contribution of
proprietor in the total assets.

It is ascertained as under:-

Proprietary ratio = Proprietor’s fund/ Total assets.

E) Valuation ratio:-
It is also called as pricing ratio. The following are the important
valuation ratio:

Earning per share (EPS):

EPS is nothing but return on equity as
measured in terms of each share.

It is ascertained as under:-

EPS = Net profits - Preference dividend

------------------------------------------------
Number of equity shares

26
 Concept

LIQUIDITY RATIO

1) Current ratio

2) Quick ratio

CURRENT RATIO

The current ratio is another test of a company’s financial strength.

The current ratio by dividing the total current assets by the total current
liabilities.

Current Ratio = Current assets / Current liabilities

Calculation of ratios:-

2004 = 777.74 / 453.04

= 1.72
2005 = 760.91 / 432.64
= 1.76
2006 = 796.23 / 410.52

Comment:-
1) Thus it has a moderate and sufficient asset to be
converted into cash in order to the companies debts as and when
required.

2) But it can be seen that the current ratio has been increased
from 1.72 to 1.96.

Comment:-

1) Quick ratio measures your ability to access cash quickly to support

immediate demands. Also known as the acid test, the quick ratio divides
current assets excluding inventory by current liabilities.

2) In our case, we can see that the ratio is continuously growing and it is
above one which shows high liquidity.

34
LEVERAGE RATIOS

1) Debt Equity ratio

2) Proprietary ratio

DEBT EQUITY RATIO:-

Debt- Equity ratio = Long term debt / Equity (net worth)

Calculation of ratio:-

2004 = 166.53 / 617.44

= 0.27
2005 = 119.15 / 624.56

Comment:-

1) The debt equity ratio shows the relative contribution of creditors

and owners. Lower the ratio higher is the degree of protection enjoyed
by the creditors.

2) Thus we can see that the debt equity ratio of the organization is
decreasing, increasing the protection of creditors.

36
PROPRIETARY RATIO

Proprietary ratio = Proprietor’s fund / Total assets.

Calculation of ratio:-

3) So here, we can observe the volatility in N.P.

ratio which was very low in 2005 but good
recovery in 2006.

Return capital employed: -

Return on equity capital = Net profit

------------------------------- X 100
Equity Capital

Calculation of ratio:-

2004 = 21.04 / 149.91 X 100

= 14.04 %
2005 = 11.43 / 141.91 X 100
= 7.62 %
2006 = 31.94 / 149.91 X 100
= 21.31 %

Comment:-
1) The strategic aim of a company is to earn a return on
capital

2) By analyzing the return on capital employeed ratio of the

year 04-05 and 06, we can say that except 2005 the
company has earned good amount of return on
Investments.

TURN OVER RATIO

1) Inventory turnover ratio

2) Assets turnover ratio

3) Fixed assets turnover ratio

45
 INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO:-

Inventory turnover ratio = Cost of goods sold

----------------------------
Average inventory

Cost of good sold = Sales - Gross profits

Average inventory = Opening inventory + closing inventory

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

Comment:-
1) Most of the capital is lock up in the inventory of manufacturing
companies.

2) It is important to take at watch on inventory turnover ratio to

ensure the level of the stock which is should be kept as low as
possible.

3) In our case, we can see that day by the ratio is going down
which means the stock turnover period is higher than previous
which may be harmful for the company.

47
ASSET TURNOVER RATIO:-

This ratio indicates the efficient utilization of all assets; i.e. fixed
assets and current assets.

Asset turnover = Sales / Total assets.

Total assets = Fixed assets + Current assets.

Calculation of ratio:-

2004 = 2255.97 / 1237.02

= 1.82
2005 = 1994.37 / 1176.35
= 1.70

Comment: -

1) This ratio indicate the efficient utilization of all assets; i.e.

fixed assets and current assets. It is also called as “Capital turnover
ratio.”

2) Higher the ratio indicates the over utilization of assets a

medium ratio means an optimum utilization of assets and lower ratio
indicates idle capacity.

3) In our case, the ratio is going down which means there

may be fear of assets remaining idle, if proper utilization is not carried.

49
Fixed asset turnover ratio:-

Fixed asset turnover ratio = Sales / Total fixed assets.

Calculation of ratio:-

2004 = 2255.97 / 4587.73

= 4.92
2005 = 1994.37 / 451.89
= 4.81

Comment:-
1) Among the total capital employed in the form of total
assets, this ratio measures the contribution of fixed assets
in sales and the resultant profitability.

2) It is difficult to interpretate ratio as assets value based on

historic cost.

3) Stable ratio can be taken, as a positive indicator in our

case there is no much volatibility.

Comment:-

1) Higher the EPS is makes the company more attractive.

2) In last year the company was having good EPS. It

means, it can attract more funds from shareholders.

Conclusions:
In this project,
I reviewed following areas of financial ratio analysis research:

 The functional form of the financial ratios, i.e. the proportionality

discussion
 Classification of financial ratios.

It is obvious that the existing main research areas in financial ratio

analysis are fairly separate from each other sometimes with traditions of
their own.

The research on the functional form of financial ratios has been

characterized by theoretical discussions about the ratio format in
financial ratio analysis and empirical testing of the ratio model. We
conclude from the review that the proportionality assumption for
financial ratios is stronger within an industry Moreover; proportionality
varies from ratio to ratio, and between times, periods indicating
problems in temporal stability.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND SUGGETIONS

Followings are the suggestions made on the basis of study made:

1) The current ratio is means to the near to the standard current ratio
2:1 but still main point management should consider is that there
is very high amount blocked in debtors as well as the current
liabilities and provisions are pending is high.

2) Management used to concentrate on the profitability of the

company as gross profit ratio and net profit ratio indicates very
low profitability.

3) Management also needs to concentrate on sales as indicated low

with respect to turnover ratios.
