techniques. Both share the same goal of enhancing firm value by ensuring that return on
capital exceeds cost of capital, without taking excessive financial risks.
Capital investment decisions comprise the long-term choices about which projects
receive investment, whether to finance that investment with equity or debt, and when or
whether to pay dividends to shareholders. Short-term corporate finance decisions are called
working capital management and deal with balance of current assets and current liabilities by
managing cash, inventories, and short-term borrowings and lending (e.g., the credit terms
extended to customers).

A STUDY OF RATIO ANALYSIS
Ration analysis stands for the process of determining and presenting the relationship of items
and groups of items in the financial statements. It is an important technique of financial
analysis. It is a way by which financial stability and health of a concern can be judged. The
following are the main points to highlight the importance of ration analysis.
1. Useful in financial position analysis: accounting rationsreveal the financial position of
the concern. It helps the banks, insurance companies and other financial institutions in
lending and making investment decision.

in locating the weakness of the business even though the overall performance may be
efficient. Management can then pay attention to the weaknesses and take remedial measure to
overcome them.
6. Useful in comparison of performance: accounting rations facilitate the comparison
between one with another firm in order to evaluate the financial performance. Management is
interested in such comparison in order to know the proper and smooth functioning of a firm.
Ration analysis also helps to make the necessary charges in the organizational structure
Helps to understand efficacy of decisions: The ratio analysis helps you to understand
whether the business firm has taken the right kind of operating, investing and
financing decisions. It indicates how far they have helped in improving the
performance.
Simplify complex figures and establish relationships: Ratios help in simplifying the
complex accounting figures and bring out their relationships. They help summarise
the financial information effectively and assess the managerial efficiency, firms credit
worthiness, earning capacity, etc.
Helpful in comparative analysis: The ratios are not be calculated for one year only.
When many year figures are kept side by side, they help a great deal in exploring the
trends visible in the business. The knowledge of trend helps in making projections
about the business which is a very useful feature.

Identification of problem areas: Ratios help business in identifying the problem areas
as well as the bright areas of the business. Problem areas would need more attention
and bright areas will need polishing to have still better results.
Enables SWOT analysis: Ratios help a great deal in explaining the changes occurring
in the business. The information of change helps the management a great deal in
understanding the current threats and opportunities and allows business to do its own
SWOT (Strength- Weakness-Opportunity-Threat) analysis.
Various comparisons: Ratios help comparisons with certain bench marks to assess as
to whether firms performance is better or otherwise. For this purpose, the
profitability, liquidity, solvency, etc. of a business, may be compared:
a. over a number of accounting periods with itself (Intra-firm Comparison/Time
Series Analysis),
b. with other business enterprises (Inter-firm Comparison/Cross-sectional
Analysis) and
c. with standards set for that firm/industry (comparison with standard
(or industry expectations).

stakeholders, and the ratios calculated to measure solvency position are known
as Solvency Ratios. These are essentially long-term in nature.
c. Activity (or Turnover) Ratios: This refers to the ratios that are calculated for
measuring the efficiency of operations of business based on effective
utilisation of resources. Hence, these are also known as Efficiency Ratios.

A STUDY OF RATIO ANALYSIS
The thorough valuation analyst will consider and compute five categories of ratios:
1. Internal liquidity ratios
2. Operating efficiency ratios
3. Operating profitability ratios
4. Business risk (operating) analysis ratios
5. Financial risk (leverage) analysis ratios
The following section provides a summary of the five categories of financial ratios, along with descriptions of
how each ratio is calculated and its relevance to financial analysis. Remember, the ratios themselves may not
be entirely meaningful unless used in trend analysis or comparative analysis.
2. Quick Ratio
Quick Ratio = Cash + Marketable Securities + Receivables
Current Liabilities
If inventories are not easily liquidated, the quick ratio provides a better indicator of the firms financial
solvency vis--vis the current ratio.
3. Cash Ratio
Cash Ratio = Cash + Marketable Securities
Current Liabilities
The cash ratio is the most conservative measure of solvency; it is used if neither accounts receivables nor
inventories are liquid
4. Receivable Turnover
Receivable Turnover = Net Sales
((Beginning A/R + Ending A/R) 2)
1
4
A STUDY OF RATIO ANALYSIS
This calculation finds the ratio between the net sales for the period and the average balance in accounts
receivable. The resulting ratio is a measure of how many times accounts receivable are collected (or turned
over) during the period being examined. For example, a ratio of 6 indicates that accounts receivable, on
average, were completely collected 6 times over the past year, or every two months.
The analyst can further convert the turnover ratio by dividing it into 365. This yields a rough indication of the
average time required to convert receivables into cash. Ideally, a monthly average of receivables should be
used and only sales on credit should be included in the sales figure. The interpretation of the average age of
receivables depends upon a companys credit terms and the seasonable activity immediately before yearend.
If a company grants 30 days credit terms to its customers, for example, and a turnover analysis indicates
average collection time of 41 days, then accounts receivable collections are lagging. If the terms were for 60
days, however, it appears collections are being made ahead of schedule. Note, if the sales volume in the last
month of the year is unusually large, the average age of receivables as computed above can be misleading.
5. Inventory Turnover
Inventory Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold
((Beginning Inventory + Ending Inventory) 2)
This ratio measures the number of times a company sells (or turns) its inventory during the year. The
relationship between inventory turnover and the gross profit rate may be important. A high inventory turnover
and a low gross profit rate frequently go hand in hand. This, however, is merely another way of saying if the
gross profit rate is low a higher volume of business is necessary to produce a satisfactory return on total assets.
Although, a high inventory turnover is usually regarded as a good sign, a rate that is high in relation to that of
similar firms may indicate the company is losing sales by failing to maintain an adequate stock of goods to
serve its customers promptly.
High inventory turnover can also indicate better liquidity or superior merchandising. Conversely, it can
indicate a shortage of needed inventory for sales. Low inventory turnover can indicate poor liquidity, possible
overstocking or obsolete inventory. In contrast to these negative interpretations, however, a planned inventory
buildup may be occurring to avoid material shortages.
6. Payables Turnover
Payables Turnover = Cost of Goods Sold
((Beginning AP + Ending AP) 2)
The payables turnover ratio measures the number of times a year that a company pays its average accounts
payable balance. If the ratio is too high, the firm may be paying too quickly and not taking advantage of the
interest free credit available from accounts payable. If the ratio is low, then the firm may be a credit risk and/or

A STUDY OF RATIO ANALYSIS
losing valuable discounts. Once again, this ratio can be divided into 365 to estimate the number of days the
average account payable is outstanding before being paid.
7. Cash Conversion Cycle
Cash Conversion Cycle = Inventory Turnover Period + Days to Collect Receivables Payable Payment
Period
The cash conversion cycle measures the time between the outlay of cash for inventory and the collection of
cash from the sale of that inventory.

Business risk refers to the volatility of earnings over time. (See the formal definition in the International
Glossary of Business Valuation Terms in Chapter Eight.) There are three ratios (two of these require
knowledge of basic statistics to derive) used to asses the business risk.
1. Coefficient of Variation of Operating Income (EBIT)
Coef. of Var. Operating. Inc. = EBIT
EBIT
is the symbol for the standard deviation
the symbol for the Mean (or average). Note. It is important to recognize that there is a difference between
the mean and median, notwithstanding that these numbers may be the same. Median is the mid-point in a
sequence of numbers.
Valuation analysts will usually compute the coefficient of variation (C of V); data from one or more business
cycles is used to derive the data for the formula [In day 3 (Case) and day 5 (CVTA) the C of V will be
revisited].
2. Sales Volatility
Coef. of Sales Volatility = Sales

Again, sales volatility is measured in one or more business cycles..

leverage (DOL) and sales volatility. As a general rule, valuation analysts will see that firms with high DOL
and sales volatility tend to have low financial leverage ratios, while firms with low DOL and sales volatility
tend to have high financial leverage ratios.

related with the present study:
Bollen (1999) conducted a studyon Ratio Variables on which he found three different uses of
ratio variables in aggregate data analysis:
(3) as a correction for heterosexuality. In the use of ratios as indies of concepts, a problem
can arise if it is regressed on other indies or variables that contain a common component. For
example, the relationship between two per capital measures may be confounded with the
common population component in each variable. Regarding the second use of ratios, only
under exceptional conditions will ratio variables be a suitable means of controlling an
extraneous factor. Finally, the use of ratios to correct for heteroscedasticity is also often
misused. Only under special conditions will the common form forgers soon with ratio
variables correct for heterosexuality. Alternatives to ratios for each of these cases are
discussed and evaluated.
