The document discusses various financial ratios used to analyze the financial position of a business. It defines financial ratios as relationships between accounting figures expressed mathematically. Financial ratio analysis is used to study information in financial statements, ascertain a business's overall financial position, and interpret key information. The document then discusses various types of ratios including liquidity ratios, solvency ratios, activity ratios, and profitability ratios. It provides examples of specific ratios like the current ratio, quick ratio, debt-to-equity ratio, and return on assets ratio and how they are calculated and interpreted.

Analysis of
Financial Ratios
• The relationship between two accounting
figures expressed mathematically is
known as financial ratio
3. 11/01/16 3
Introduction
• What is the purpose of analysis of financial
ratios
• – It is for a meaningful study of information in the
financial statements
• – Ascertaining overall financial position of a
business organisation
• – Interpretation of key information in the financial
statements
4. 11/01/16 4
Objective
• The objectives:
• – Assess credit risk profile of the borrower
• – Stipulation of terms and conditions
• – Assess utilization of credit facility
• – Establish sound well defined credit
granting criteria
• – Ensure safety of bank funds
5. 11/01/16 5
Factors that banks consider
• Credit worthiness of the borrower
• Integrity/reputation
• Credit risk profile
• Sensitivity to economic and market
developments
• Liquidity
• Solvency
• Profitability of business
• Resource efficiency
7. 11/01/16 7
Ratios can be expressed in
different ways
• Ratios can be expressed as
• A) Percentage say gross profit ratio is
20%
of sales
• B) Proportion say current ratio 2:1
• C) Fraction- Say net profit is one-tenth
of sales
• D) Times say capital turn over ratio is
5times
9. 11/01/16 9
Measures of Liquidity /
Liquidity Ratios
• Net Working Capital
• Current Ratio
• Quick Ratio
• Net Working Capital/Net Assets
• Net Working Capital/Current Assets
10. 11/01/16 10
Net Working Capital
• Gross Working Capital ( GWC)
• It is the investment required to be made
by the borrower in Current Assets
• How ?
• From own contributions
• From creditors, borrowings
• Other short term resources
11. 11/01/16 11
Gross Working Capital
• Gross Working Capital
• How funded
• From own resources and other long term
sources
• Short fall if any from short term resources
12. 11/01/16 12
Short Term Resources
• Short term resources constitute what are known
• as ‘ Current Liabilities’
• Current Liabilities should be lower than Current
Assets
• Excess of Current Assets over Current Liabilities
is Net Working Capital
• Contribution from long term resources applied to
financing of Current Assets ( excess of Current
Assets) is owner’s stake or margin money
13. 11/01/16 13
Concept of NWC
• NWC represents the surplus long term funds
• applied towards financing of Current Assets
• Current assets are financed from two sources
• – Surplus from Long Term Liabilities
• – Current Liabilities
• Difference between Current assets and Current
Liabilities should always be positive
14. 11/01/16 14
NWC
• Negative Net Working Capital
• What is the Implication
• Business has applied part of surplus
Current Liabilities towards meeting
shortfall in Long Term resources
15. 11/01/16 15
NWC
• Positive NWC means
• i. Borrower has brought in his contribution
• ii. Any fall in value of Current Assets will
be cushioned by borrower’s stake
• iii. Loss in sale of Current Assets will not
affect Short term creditors
16. 11/01/16 16
NWC
• Net Working Capital ( NWC ) is a measure of
• liquidity
• • Sources for NWC
• Long Term Liabilities net of Long Term Assets
• ( LTLs including Net Worth less LTAs which
includes
• Fixed Assets, miscellaneous assets and
• intangibles.
• Another measure of liquidity is the Current
Ratio
17. 11/01/16 17
Current Ratio
• Current Ratio:
• Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
• If Net Working Capital is to be of positive
value the Current Ratio must be higher
than 1.
• Ideally for calculating MPBF Current Ratio
should be 1.33: 1
19. 11/01/16 19
Computation
• Current Ratio is computed by dividing the
current assets by the current liabilities
• Current ratio is expressed as a pure ratio
e.g 2:1Traditionally a current ratio of 2:1 is
considered as a satisfactory ratio.
• Current ratio is calculated at a particular
date and not for a particular period
• The excess of current ratio over current
liabilities is known as working capital.
20. 11/01/16 20
Quick Ratio or liquid ratio or Acid
Test Ratio
• This ratio establishes relationship between quick
assets and current liabilities
• This ratio measures ability of the firm to meet
short term obligations without relying upon
realisation of stock
• Quick assets- Cash ,Bank balance,Debtors
( after deducting provisions ) , Bills
receivables,Marketable securities,Short term
loans and advances(debit balance)
21. 11/01/16 21
Current Liabilities
• Current Liabilities – those which are
expected to be matured normally within a
year.
• Examples-Creditors for goods,Bills
payable, Creditors for expenses,provision
for tax unclaimed dividend,income
received in advance,short term loans and
advances(credit balance)
22. 11/01/16 22
Quick Ratio
• Quick ratio is computed by dividing quick
assets by current liabilities.
• Quick Ratio or Acid Test Ratio = Current
Assets-Inventory/Current Liabilities
• It indicates rupees of quick assets
available for each rupee of current liability
• A quick ratio of 1:1 is said to be
satisfactory
23. 11/01/16 23
Excercise
• Work out
• Current Ratio
• Quick Ratio
• Net working Capital to net sales (%)
• Net working Capital to Current Assets (%)
26. 11/01/16 26
Financing of Current Assets
• 1. Current Assets = Current Liabilities + NWC or
• 3088 = 2652 + 436
• 2. NWC = Current Assets – Current Liabilities or
• 436 = 3088 – 2652
• 3. Current Assets = Current Liabilities +
Contribution from Long Term Liabilities
3088 = 2249 +[(8104-7668)] =2652+436
(i.e.NWC = 3088)
27. 11/01/16 27
NWC/Net Sales
• This percentage should be around 8-12 %
• NWC is lower:
• Business is growing too fast without
• building an adequate cushion in the form
of NWC
It indicates symptom of overtrading and
Undue reliance on borrowed short term
funds
28. 11/01/16 28
Falling NWC/Net Sales
• Indicative of overtrading and serious
liquidity problems It needs to be
investigated
31. 11/01/16 31
Debt Equity ratio
• Debt Equity ratio establishes relationship between long
term debts and share holder’s funds
• Objective of this ratio is to measure the relative
proportion of debt and equity in financing the assets of a
firm
• This ratio indicates margin of safety to long term
creditors.
• A low debt equity ratio implies use of more equity than
debt which means a larger safety margin for creditors
and vice versa.
• Traditionally debt equity ratio of 2:1 is considered as
satisfactory
32. 11/01/16 32
Debt Equity Ratio
• DER = TLT Liabilities/TNW
• DER = Long term debts/
Shareholders funds
• Low ratio has a better leverage for
borrowing, From a firm’s point of view
debt servicing is less burdensome
• Not more than 1.5 for providing finance by
banks
33. 11/01/16 33
Debt Service Coverage Ratio
• This ratio measures relationship between Net
profits before interest and Tax and
Interset+Principal portion of installment.
• It shows the number of times the amount of
interest on long term debts and the principal
portion of installments covered by the profits out
of which that will be paid
• To judge whether ratios is satisfactory or not it
should be compared with its own past ratios or
with ratios of similar enterprises in the same
industry
34. 11/01/16 34
Debt Service coverage Ratio
• Debt Service coverage Ratio =
• Net profit before interest and tax
____________________________
Principal portion of installment
Int+----------------------------------------= times
1-Tax Rate
35. 11/01/16 35
Example
• Net profit before int and Tax Rs
8,50,000,10% debentures payable in 10
installments Rs 7,00,000 Tax rate 30%
• Calculate Debt Service coverage ratio
37. 11/01/16 37
DSCR
• DSCR =( Net profit +Depcn+ Annual
amount of
• int.on LTLs)/Interest + principal
Indicative of funds available for servicing
long term debt
• DSCR = 6+4+2/6 = 12/6= 2
• This is comfortable Should not be less
than 1.5:1 while considering projects
38. 11/01/16 38
Profitability Ratio
In relation to
Sales
1.Gross Profit Ratio
2.Operating profit ratio
3.Net profit ratio
In relation to
Investments
1.Return on Total Assets
2.Return on capital employed
3 Return on Share holders
funds
In relation to
Share holder’s
funds
1.Earnings per share
2.Price- Earning Ratio
3.Dividend pay out Ratio
39. 11/01/16 39
Return on Assets
• RoA = PBIT/Total Assets
• To measure profitability and efficiency
• Higher the ratio, the more efficient is the
firm in using resources
