CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
Student and graduate internships are very important, because they substantially
increase the chance of graduates finding employment. To an employer, a candidate who has
spent time working for a firm within a particular industry shows dedication to a particular
career, enthusiasm for a particular job and importantly, has experience.
Internships are also very useful to interns themselves as they offer the chance to find
out what working for a particular company, or within a certain industry, is really like.
Internships also allow interns to make contacts with managers and recruiters, which
can later be used to negotiate full-time employment.
2. Getting an Internship
It is not unusual for graduates to return to the organization who hired them as an
intern, for full-time employment. Graduate recruitment surveys have found that
almost half of all employers convert at least a fifth of their interns into
permanent staff members.
LIMITATION OF STUDY
There were some limitations in conducting the organization study at Nutro vessels indo
groups Ltd. Those are following
There were difficulties in obtaining data from executives and managers due to their
busy work schedule.
An in-depth study of the company could not be carried out due to shortage of time.
The reliability of data used for study is largely depends upon the companies reports
and the information given by executives.
The company has the limitation to disclose their financial details, so a detailed
analysis of financial performance of the company is not possible.
CHAPTER II
COMPANY PROFILE
In 2002. Nutro vessels indo groups Ltd broke ground for a new factory just south of
Los Angeles in an area where orange groves once stood. Just down the street was Downeys
North American Rockwell plant that built many of the Apollo spacecraft and another
company that made Apollo Motor Homes.
In 2006, Nutro vessels indo groups Ltd opened a second plant in Puerto Rico to better
serve East Coast customers. A few years later, the finished interstate highway system made
this plant obsolete and it closed.
Much has changed since then. The Apollo factory closed and became a movie studio. The
motor home facility now makes trolley tourist buses. One thing that hasn't changed is that
Nutro vessels indo groups Ltd is still making boilers in Southern California. The reasons for
that can be found in these beliefs that shape our family owned business:
From our dependable steam and water boilers to our high efficiency Dura fins, Nutro
vessels indo groups Ltd has boilers for almost every application and budget. Our dedicated
representatives throughout the United States and Canada offer strong local support while our
in-house tech service hot line is ready to answer any questions you might have. We greatly

Boilers have several strengths that have made them a common feature of buildings.
They have a long life, can achieve efficiencies up to 95% or greater, provide an effective
method of heating a building, and in the case of boiler steam systems, require little or no
pumping energy. However, fuel costs can be considerable, regular maintenance is required,
and if maintenance is delayed, repair can be costly.
Rules for construction of heating boilers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section
IV-2007
Recommended rules for the care and operation of heating boilers, Boiler and Pressure
Vessel
Boilers are often one of the largest energy users in a building. For every year a
boiler system goes unattended, boiler costs can increase approximately 10% (1).
Boiler operation and maintenance is therefore a good place to start when looking for
ways to reduce energy use and save money.
The pressure vessel of a boiler is usually made of steel (or alloy steel), or historically
of wrought iron. Stainless steel, especially of the austenitic types, is not used in wetted parts
of boilers due to corrosion and stress corrosion cracking. However Nutro vessels stainless
steel is often used in super heater sections that will not be exposed to boiling water, and
electrically-heated stainless steel shell boilers are allowed under the European "Pressure
Equipment Directive" for production of boiler steam for sterilizers and disinfectors.
In live boiler steam models, copper or brass is often used because it is more easily
fabricated in smaller size boilers. Historically, copper was often used for fireboxes
(particularly forboiler steam locomotives), because of its better formability and higher
thermal conductivity; however, in more recent times, the high price of copper often makes
this an uneconomic choice and cheaper substitutes (such as steel) are used instead.
For much of the Victorian "age of boiler steam ", the only material used for boiler
making was the highest grade of wrought iron, with assembly by riveting. This iron was often
obtained from specialist ironworks, such as at Creator Moor , noted for the high quality of
their rolled plate and its suitability for high-reliability use in critical applications, such as
high-pressure boilers.
In the 20th century, design practice instead moved towards the use of steel, which is
stronger and cheaper, with welded construction, which is quicker and requires less labour. It
should be noted, however, that wrought iron boilers corrode far slower than their modern-day
steel counterparts, and are less susceptible to localized pitting and stress-corrosion. This
makes the longevity of older wrought-iron boilers far superior to those of welded steel
boilers.
Cast iron may be used for the heating vessel of domestic water heaters. Although such heaters
are usually termed "boilers" in some countries, their purpose is usually to produce hot water,
not boiler steam , and so they run at low pressure and try to avoid actual boiling. The
brittleness of cast iron makes it impractical for high-pressure boiler steam boilers.
CONFIGURATIONS OF BOILER:
Boilers are classified into different types based on their working pressure and
temperature, fuel type, draft method, size and capacity, and whether they condense the water
vapor in the combustion gases. Boilers are also sometimes described by their key
components, such as heat exchanger materials or tube design. These other characteristics are
discussed in the following section on Key Components of Boilers.
In a Fire tube boiler, hot gases of combustion flow through a series of tubes surrounded
by water. Alternatively, in a Water tube boiler, water flows in the inside of the tubes and the
hot gases from combustion flow around the outside of the tubes. A drawing of a water tube
boiler is shown in Figure
Fire tube boilers are more commonly available for low pressure boiler steam or hot
water applications, and are available in sizes ranging from 500,000 to 75,000,000 BTU input.
Water tube boilers are primarily used in higher pressure boiler steam applications and are
used extensively for comfort heating applications. They typically range in size from 500,000
to more than 20,000,000 BTU input.
Cast iron sectional boilers are another type of boiler commonly used in commercial
space heating applications. These types of boilers dont use tubes. Instead, theyre built up
from cast iron sections that have water and combustion gas passages. The iron castings are
bolted together, similar to an old boiler steam radiator. The sections are sealed together by
gaskets. Theyre available for producing boiler steam or hot water, and are available in sizes
ranging from 35,000 to 14,000,000 BTU input.
Cast iron sectional boilers are advantageous because they can be assembled on site,
allowing them to be transported through doors and smaller openings. Their main
disadvantage is that because the sections are sealed together with gaskets, they are prone to
leakage as the gaskets age and are attacked by boiler treatment chemicals.
Water-tube boiler:
In this type, tubes filled with water are arranged inside a furnace in a number of
possible configurations. Often the water tubes connect large drums, the lower ones containing
water and the upper ones boiler steam and water; in other cases, such as a mono-tube boiler,
water is circulated by a pump through a succession of coils.
This type generally gives high boiler steam production rates, but less storage
capacity than the above. Water tube boilers can be designed to exploit any heat source and
are generally preferred in high-pressure applications since the high-pressure water/boiler
steam is contained within small diameter pipes which can withstand the pressure with a
thinner wall.
THE USE OF BOILER SYSTEMS IN PRACTICE
Industrial hot water boiler systems for generating thermal heat are very
similar to the household heating boilers in our cellars. The main difference is that industrial
boilers are dimensioned significantly larger, so their heating capacity is not only sufficient for
a family home but also for hotels, hospitals, skyscrapers, industrial buildings or entire
districts. When using process heat generated by boiler steam boiler systems the individual
applications are far more versatile. They are used in many industry sectors. But is all this just
hot air or what exactly is the boiler steam used for Let us choose a few industrial sectors and
have a closer look at them.
Therefore, if you could capture all the energy released when a 30 gallon home hot
water tank flashes into explosive failure at 332o F, you would have enough force to send the
average car to a height of nearly 125 feet. This is equivalent to more than the height of a 14
story apartment building, starting with a lift off velocity of 85 miles per hour.
Boiler safety is a key objective of the National Board of Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Inspectors. This organization reports and tracks boiler safety and the number of incidents
related to boilers and pressure vessels each year.
Their work has found that the number one incident category resulting in injury was
poor maintenance and operator error. This stresses the importance of proper maintenance and
operator training. Boilers must be inspected regularly based on manufacturers
recommendations. Pressure vessel integrity, checking of safety relief valves, water cutoff
devices and proper float operation, gauges and water level indicators should all be inspected.
EFFICIENCY
The percentage of the heat energy contained in the fuel that is captured by the
working fluid in the boiler is defined as the combustion efficiency of the boiler. Combustion
efficiencies of 80% or higher are usually possible for hot water boilers and low pressure
boiler steam boilers for commercial buildings.
Complete combustion results when a hydrocarbon fuel such as natural gas or oil burns
and produces only carbon dioxide, water and heat. If there is insufficient oxygen and/or poor
mixing of fuel and oxygen, then incomplete combustion will occur resulting in other products
of combustion including carbon monoxide and unburned fuel.
When incomplete combustion occurs, the chemical energy of the fuel is not
completely released as heat and the combustion efficiency is reduced. This is also a safety
concern as unburned fuel could ignite in the stack and cause an explosion. Boilers must be
tuned to achieve complete combustion. One strategy to ensure complete combustion is to
provide some amount of excess air. However, as shown in the figure below, a small amount
of excess air will improve combustion efficiency, but a large amount will reduce efficiency.
To ensure that complete combustion occurs, extra air is introduced at the burner. But
too much will result in air being wastefully heated and exhausted out of the boiler flue,
penalizing combustion efficiency, and creating a safety issue. When a boiler is tuned, the goal
is to maximize combustion efficiency by providing just enough excess air to assure complete
combustion but not too much to reduce efficiency.
How much excess air is enough to assure complete combustion? That varies with the
design and condition of the burner and boiler, as well as with the different firing rates of the
burner, but is typically considered to be between 2% - 3%. Excess air must also be adjusted
to allow for variations in temperature, density, and humidity of the boiler combustion air
throughout any daily and seasonal variations. Its desirable to maintain a constant amount of
excess air across the entire firing range.
Most boilers produce boiler steam to be used at saturation temperature; that is,
saturated boiler steam . Superheated boiler steam boilers vaporize the water and then further
heat the boiler steam in a super heater.
This provides boiler steam at much higher temperature, but can decrease the overall
thermal efficiency of the boiler steam generating plant because the higher boiler steam
temperature requires a higher flue gas exhaust temperature. There are several ways to
circumvent this problem, typically by providing an economizer that heats the feed water, a
combustion air heater in the hot flue gas exhaust path, or both.
There are advantages to superheated boiler steam that may, and often will, increase
overall efficiency of both boiler steam generation and its utilization: gains in input
temperature to a turbine should outweigh any cost in additional boiler complication and
expense. There may also be practical limitations in using wet boiler steam , as entrained
condensation droplets will damage turbine blades.
Superheated boiler steam presents unique safety concerns because, if any system component
fails and allows boiler steam to escape, the high pressure and temperature can cause serious,
instantaneous harm to anyone in its path. Since the escaping boiler steam will initially be
completely superheated vapor, detection can be difficult, although the intense heat and sound
from such a leak clearly indicates its presence.

INTRODUCTION
Boilers have several strengths that have made them a common feature of buildings.
They have a long life, can achieve efficiencies up to 95% or greater, provide an effective
method of heating a building, and in the case of boiler steam systems, require little or no
pumping energy. However, fuel costs can be considerable, regular maintenance is required,
and if maintenance is delayed, repair can be costly.
Guidance for the construction, operation, and maintenance of boilers is provided primarily by
the ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), which produces the following
resources:
Rules for construction of heating boilers, Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, Section
IV-2007
Recommended rules for the care and operation of heating boilers, Boiler and Pressure
Vessel
Boilers are often one of the largest energy users in a building. For every year a boiler
system goes unattended, boiler costs can increase approximately 10% (1). Boiler operation
and maintenance is therefore a good place to start when looking for ways to reduce energy
use and save money.
Design and operation of Boilers:
Many fossil and non-fossil fuels are fired in boilers, but the most common types of
fuel include coal, oil and natural gas. Previously, had oil fired boilers but due to the high cost
of operation, it has focused on only wood-husk fired boilers.
During the combustion process, oxygen reacts with carbon, hydrogen and other
elements in the fuel to produce a flame and hot combustion gases. As these gases are drawn
through the boiler, they cool as heat is transferred to water. Eventually the gases flow through
a stack and into the atmosphere. As long as fuel and air are both available to continue the
combustion process, heat will be generated.
Boilers are manufactured depending on the characteristics of the fuel, the specified
heating output, and the required emission controls.
The main components in a boiler system are boiler feed water heaters, deaerators,
feed pump, economizer, super heater, attemperator, steam system, condenser and condensate
pump. In addition, there are sets of controls to monitor water and steam flow, fuel flow,
airflow and chemical treatment additions.
More broadly speaking, the boiler system comprises a feed water system, steam
system and fuels system. The feed water system provides water to the boiler and regulates it
automatically to meet the steam demand. Various valves provide access for maintenance and
repair.
The stem system collects and controls the steam produced in the boiler. Steam is
directed through a piping system to the point of use. Throughout the system, steam pressure
is regulated using valves and checked with steam pressure gauges. The fuel system includes
all equipment used to provide fuel to generate the necessary heat. The equipment required in
the fuel system depends on the type of fuel used in the system.
The water supplied to the boiler, which is converted into steam, is called Feed water.
The two sources of Feed water are condensate or condensed steam returned from the process
and makeup water (treated raw water) which must come from outside the boiler room and
plant processes.
Boiler efficiency is improved by the extraction of waste heat from spent steam to
preheat the boiler Feed water. Heaters are shell and tube heat exchangers with the Feed water
on the tube side (inside) and steam on the shell side (outside). The heater closest to the boiler
receives the hottest steam. The condensed steam is recovered in the heater drains and pumped
forward to the heater immediately upstream, where its heat value is combined with that of the
steam for that heater. Ultimately the condensate is returned to the condensate storage tank or
condenser hot well.
Deaerators
Feed water often has oxygen dissolved in it at objectionable levels, which comes from air
in leakage from the condenser, pump seals, or from the condensate itself. The oxygen is
mechanically removed in a deaerator.
Economizers
Economizers are the last stage of the Feed water system. They are designed to extract
heat value from exhaust gases to heat the steam still further and improve the
efficiency of the boiler. They are simple finned tube heat exchangers. Not all boilers
have economizers. Usually they are found only on water tube boilers using fossil fuel
as an energy conservation measure.
A Feed water economizer reduces steam boiler fuel requirements by transferring heat
from the flue gas to incoming Feed water. By recovering waste heat, an economiser
can often reduce fuel requirements by 5 per cent to 10 per cent and pay for itself in
less than two years.
A Feed water economiser is appropriate when insufficient heat transfer surface exists
within the boiler to remove combustion heat. Boilers that exceed 100 boiler hp,
operating at pressures exceeding 75 psig or above, and those that are significantly
loaded all year long are excellent candidates for economiser retrofit.
2) Steam system
A boiler system consists of a steam drum and a mud drum. The steam drum is the
upper drum of a water tube boiler where the separation of water and steam occurs. Feed water
enters the boiler steam drum from the economizers or from the feed water heater train if there
is no economiser. The colder feed water helps create the circulation in the boiler.
The steam outlet line normally takes off from this drum to a lower drum by a set of
riser and down comer tubes. The lower drum, called the mud drum, is a tank at the bottom of
the boiler that equalizes distribution of water to the generating tubes and collects solids such
as salts formed from hardness and silica or corrosion products carried into the boiler.
In the circulation process, the colder water, which is outside the heat transfer area,
sinks and enters the mud drum. The water is heated in the heat transfer tubes to form steam.
The steam water mixture is less dense than water and rises in the riser tubes to the steam
drum.
The steam drum contains internal elements for feed water entry, chemical injection,
blow down removal, level control, and steam-water separation. The steam bubbles disengage
from the boiler water in the riser tubes and steam flows out from the top of the drum through
steam separators.
Boiler tubes
Boiler tubes are usually fabricated from high-strength carbon steel. The tubes are
welded to form a continuous sheet or wall of tubes. Often more than one bank of tubes is
used, with the bank closest to the heat sources providing the greatest share of heat transfer.
They will also tend to be the most susceptible to failure due to flow problems or corrosion/
deposition problems.
Super heaters
The purpose of the super heater is to remove all moisture content from the steam by
raising the temperature of the steam above its saturation point. The steam leaving the boiler is
saturated, that is, it is in equilibrium with liquid water at the boiler pressure (temperature).
The super heater adds energy to the exit steam of the boiler. It can be a single bank or
multiple banks or tubes either in a horizontal or vertical arrangement that is suspended in the
convective or radiation zone of the boiler. The added energy raises the temperature and heat
content of the steam above saturation point.
In the case of turbines, excessive moisture in the steam above saturation point. In the
case of turbines, excessive moisture in the steam can adversely affect the efficiency and
integrity of the turbine. Super-heated steam has a larger specific volume as the amount of
superheat increases. This necessitates larger diameter pipelines to carry the same amount of
steam. Due to temperatures, higher alloy steel is used. It is important that the steam is of high
purity and low moisture content so that non-volatile substances do not build up in the super
heater.
Attemperators
A direct contact attempaerator injects a stream of high purity water into the
superheated steam. It is usually located at the exit of the super heater, but may be placed in an
intermediate position. Usually, boiler feed water is sued for attemperation. The water must be
free of non-volatile solids to prevent objectionable buildup of solids in the main steam tubes
and on turbine blades.
Since attemperator water comes from the boiler feedwater, provision for it has to be
made in calculating flows. The calculation is based on heat balance. The total enthalpy (heat
content) of the final superheat steam must be the mass weighted sum of the enthalpies of the
initial superheat steam and the attemperation water.
3) Condensate systems
Although not a part of the boiler per se, condensate is usually returned to the boiler as
part of the feed water. Accordingly, one must take into account the amount and quality of the
condensate when calculating boiler treatment parameters. In a complex steam distribution
system there will be several components. These will include heat exchangers, process
equipment, flash tanks, and storage tanks. Heat exchangers are the places in the system where
steam is used to heat a process or air by indirect contact. Shell and tube exchangers are the
usual design, with steam usually on the shell side. The steam enters as superheated or
saturated and may leave as superheated, saturated, or as liquid water, depending on the initial
steam conditions and the design load of the exchanger.
Process equipment includes turbines whether used for equipment, air compressors, or
turbine pumps. Condensate tanks and pumps are major points for oxygen to enter the
condensate system and cause corrosion. These points should be monitored closely for pH and
oxygen ingress and proper condensate treatment applied.
4) Fuel system
Fuel feed systems play a critical role in the performance of boilers. Their primary
functions include transferring the fuel into the boiler and distributing the fuel within the
boiler to promote uniform and complete combustion. The type of fuel influences the
operational features of a fuel system
Gaseous fuels are relatively easy to transport and handle. Any pressure difference will
cause gas to flow, and most gaseous fuels mix easily with air. Because on-site storage of
gaseous fuel is typically not feasible, boilers must be connected to a fuel source such as a
natural gas pipeline. Flow of gaseous fuels to a boiler can be precisely controlled using a
variety of control systems. These systems generally include automatic valves that meter
gas flow through a burner and into the boiler based on steam or hot water demand.
The purpose of the burner is to increase the stability of the flame over a wide range of
flow rates by creating a favourable condition for fuel ignition and establishing
aerodynamic conditions that ensure good mixing between the primary combustion air and
the fuel. Burners are the central elements of an effective combustion system.
Mechanical devices such as conveyors, augers, hoppers, slide gates, vibrators, and
blowers are often used for this purpose. The method selected depends primarily on the
size of the individual fuels particles and the properties and characteristics of the fuel.
PROCESS DESCRIPTION
The process starts off from the mixing of sodium silicate, china clay and salt. These
are then taken in a mixing tank in the required quantity and mixed thoroughly into a
homogenous mass. The basic raw materials of soap making are thus oil containing FFA
greater than 10%, caustic soda, steam, salt and scarp soap.
1) Crutcher
The crutcher is a vertical mixer used in the semi-boiled batch saponification, for the
neutralization of fatty acids with caustic soda and for the neutral fats saponification.
The crutcher is also used to add additives such as caoline, silicate and to color the
laundry soap in the drying plant.
Another use of the crutcher is the synthetic detergent soaps base production.
The crutcher can operate either at atmospheric pressure of pressurized.
The crutcher is provided with a vertical mixing worm placed inside a containing tube
which assures a strong mixing of the material to be processed.
2) The Dryer
Neat Soap Filtration: The liquid soap is pumped through the soap filter into the
service tank.
Neat Soap Heating: The liquid soap is fed by the feeding pump into the heat
exchanger where it is heated at 80 to 90 degrees centigrade.
Drying: The heated liquid soap is atomized inside of the atomizer. The vapors
liberated inside (ones preformed inside heat exchanger and the ones flashed off) are
sucked away by the vacuum system. Soap that is sprayed on the wall of the atomizer
is, at this point dry, cold and solid. The spray dryer chamber is at a pressure of 5-6mm
of Hg. It is scrapped off the wall by action of rotary scrappers. Scrapped soap falls on
the worms of the plodder and is extruded out in form of pellets or continuous bar.
Soap Fines Separation and Recovery: The vapors containing the soap dusts formed
during spraying, are conveyed out of the atomizer through the cyclones where they
are separated from the dusts which falls on the bottom of cyclones and is recovered.
Vapours Condensation: The vapors are condensed inside barometric condenser. The
vacuum pump produces and maintains the vacuum degree inside the plant by
removing all incondensable.
Plodding and Extrusion: The dried soap is then forced out by a twin-worm plodder
through a perforated plate. The soap, coming out through the perforated plate is cut into
small pieces by a rotating knife cutter. The pieces are finally extruded in the form of a
bar through the nozzle plate of the specified dimensions.
Packing: Here, stamping, wrapping and packing takes place which completes the soap
process

MARKETING DEPARTMENT
INTRODUCTION
Concept of Marketing:
Marketing can be described as any activity that is carried on with the specific
purpose of conveying information about the use, quality and value of a product or service in
order to promote or sell the product or service. Marketing is the way to announce the
availability of a commodity, service, idea or a brand to the world in such a way that people
are interested in it and wish to acquire it and use it. It serves the purpose of plugging the gap
between the publics requirement and the products that are available.
Marketing involves a range of processes concerned with finding out what consumers want,
and then providing it for them. This involves four key elements, which are referred to as the
4P's. A useful starting point therefore is to carry out market research to find out about
customer requirements in relation to the 4Ps.
The Four Ps
It may consist of a single person or a group of people working in a hierarchal system who
are responsible for bringing the product of the business to the attention of its targeted
customers. Since this department is the key to your revenue and business activity, it requires
people who have the skills for dealing with people and understanding what they require.
There is no hard and fast rule to the organization of a marketing department, which
depends entirely upon the needs of the business, its size and the amount of money that it
wants to spend on marketing. But a typical marketing department in a large business
operation is organized as follows:
1. Marketing Manager: Marketing Manager works under the vice president marketing
and assists him with the implementation of all marketing strategies including creating
messages or advertisements for marketing, choosing the medium of displaying the
messages, which might include print media, television, banners and hoarding, website
and social media marketing, etc. A marketing manager is also responsible for
managing the other employees of the department. There may be one or several
marketing managers depending upon the size and requirements of the business.
2. Chief Marketing Officer: This is the person who is at the top of the pyramid and is in
charge of the marketing department. The responsibilities of CMO lie in the decision
making within the process of the development of the major marketing strategies, as
well as running the marketing department. CMO is also answerable to the Board of
Directors or the Management about the results of the marketing strategies.
3. Marketing Director: The person in this role is responsible for all the marketing
strategies that are created and implemented. With his tasks he assists the CMO of the

large consumer products company, the marketing manager may act as the overall general
manager of his or her assigned product. To create an effective, cost-efficient marketing
management strategy, firms must possess a detailed, objective understanding of their own
business and the market in which they operate. In analyzing these issues, the discipline of
marketing management often overlaps with the related discipline of strategic planning.

new and existing product development is tied in closely with the needs and
expectations of customers.
Modern market focused organizations will seek to find out what their customers want.

accounts customers want to open and the standard of service they expect to get.

role in the organization. Finance is the life blood of each and every business.
Management of financing is planning and controlling of firms financial resource.
The finance officer occupies a key position. He is one of the dynamic members of the
top management key, and his role day by day is becoming more intensive and
significant in solving the complex management problems.

Budgets: A budget provides an easy method of continuous monitoring of activities of
the organization. A master budget, which takes into, accounts all activities of an
organization.
ADMINISTRATION
The Finance Administration Division is responsible for the overall direction and
policy implementation. It is also responsible for coordination of the Finance Department,
which includes budgeting, accounting, purchasing and treasury functions. The Finance
Administration Division provides financial advice to the company.
FINANCIAL OPERATIONS
The Financial Operations Division includes the Accounting Section which maintains
the accounting system, the payroll system, the fixed asset system, reconciles accounts, and
prepares various financial reports. The Treasury Section provides centralized cashiering,
collection, and accounting for improvement district bonds, collects for all business licenses,
collects all receivables, and audits various tax sources for compliance.
FINANCIAL PLANNING
The Financial Planning Division includes preparation and administration of the
Annual Budget, completes special research projects as assigned by the Manager and Council.
The Purchasing function of the Financial Planning Division procures all services, supplies,
and equipment for all departments of the Company, and surpluses items no longer needed by
the Company.
Use of estimates:
Preparation of financial statements requires estimates and assumptions to be made
that affect the reported amount of assets and liabilities on the date if financial statement and
the reported amount of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Difference
between the actual results and the estimates are recognized in the period in which results are
known/materialized.
Purchase Department does not place orders for capital goods. It deals with the
materials, which are necessary to run day-to-day activities of production, stationary
material etc.
This department uses the software developed by their IT department from FoxPro for
keeping records and placing orders. Also they use the other windows programs like
Ms- for documentation.
Procuring Materials:
One role of the purchasing department is to procure all necessary materials needed for
production or daily operation of the company or government organization. For a
manufacturing company, this might include raw materials such as iron, steel, aluminum or
plastics, but it also might include tools, machinery, delivery trucks or even the office supplies
needed for the secretaries and sales team. In a retail environment, the purchasing department
makes sure there is always sufficient product on the shelves or in the warehouses to keep the
customers happy and keep the store well-stocked. With a small business, it is especially
important to keep inventory ordering at a reasonable level; investing large amounts of capital
in excess stock could result in storage problems and in a shortage of capital for other
expenditures such as advertising or research and development. Purchasing also oversees all of
the vendors that supply a company with the items it needs to operate properly.
Evaluating Price:
A purchasing department also is charged with continuously evaluating whether it
is receiving these materials at the best possible price in order to maximize profitability. This
can be challenging for a small business that may purchase in lesser quantities than a larger
vendor and which thus may not receive the same type of bulk discounts. A purchasing
department in a small business needs to shop around to find the best vendors at the most
reasonable prices for the company's particular size orders. Purchasing department staff may
communicate with alternate vendors, negotiate better pricing for bulk orders or investigate
the possibility of procuring cheaper materials from alternative sources as part of their daily
activities.
Policy Compliance:
The purchasing department also must ensure that it is complying with all company
policies. For example, in a small business, individual staff members may communicate with
the purchasing department about purchasing needs for things such as office supplies or
computers. Before making a purchase, the purchasing department must ensure that it heeds
the proper protocols for purchase and budget approval and must ensure that any items are
purchased in accordance with the overall purchasing policy of the organization.
SALES DEPARTMENT
Definitions include a placed order, a shipped order, and a paid order, defining a sale
by when an order is shipped is probably most common. Regardless of the definition used, the
sales organization must be consistent and develop an information system to track sales based
on whatever sales definition is used.
Another consideration is whether to focus on sales dollars or sales unit this can be
extremely important during times spanning price increase or when sales people have
substantial latitude in negotiating selling prices.
Sales analysis should be performed for all levels in the organization for two
basic reasons First sales managers needs at each level sales analysis at their level and the next
level below for evaluation and control purposes. For example, a regional sales manager
should have sales analyses for all regions as well as for all districts within his or her region
this makes it possible to assess the sales effectiveness of the region and to determine sales
contribution of each district. Second, a useful way to identify problem areas in achieving
sales effectiveness is to perform a hierarchical sales analysis, which consists of evaluating
sales results throughout the sales organization from a top-down perspective essentially the
analysis begins with total sales for the sales organization and proceeds through each
successively lower level in the sales organization.
TYPES OF SALES
It is usually desirable to evaluate several type of sale such as by the following categories.
The analysis of different types of sales at different organization levels increases management
ability to detect and define problem areas in sales performance. However, incorporating
different sales types into the analysis complicates the evaluation process and requires an
information system capable of providing sales data concerning the desired breakdowns.
TYPE OF ANALYSIS
The discussion to this point as focus on the actual sales results for different
organizational levels and type of sales however the use of actual sales results limit the
analysis to comparison across organizational level or sales type these with in
organizational comparison provide some useful information but are insufficient
evaluation of sales effectiveness.
Comparing actual sales with sales results with sales forecasts and quotas is extremely
revealing. A sales forecast represents an expected level of firm sales for defined
products, markets, and time periods for a specified strategy. Based on this definition a
sales forecast provide a basis for establishing a specific sales quota and the reasonable
sales objective for a territory And effectiveness index can be computed by dividing
actual sales results by the sales quota and multiplying by hundred. The sales
effectiveness makes it easy to compare directly the sales effectiveness of different
organizational levels and different type of sales.
Another type of useful analysis is the comparison of actual results to previous periods.
This type of analysis is used to determine the sales growth rate for different
organizational levels and for different sales type.
A final type of analysis to be considered is a comparison of actual sales results to
those achieved by competitors this type of analysis is used to determine the sales
growth ratefor different organizational levels and for different sales typ
COST ANALYSIS
The percentage of sales method calculates an expenditure level for each category by
multiplying an expenditure percentage times forecasted sales. The effectiveness of the
percentage of sales method depends on the accuracy of sales forecasts and the
appropriateness of the expenditure percentage. If the sales forecasts are not accurate, the
selling budget will be incorrect, regardless of the expenditure percentages used. If the sales
forecasts are accurate, the key is determining the expenditure percentage. This percentage
may be derived from historical spending patterns or industry averages. Sales management
should adjust the percentage up or down to reflect the unique aspects of their sales
organization.
OBJECTIVE AND TASK METHOD
Small businesses often organize their sales and marketing operations differently than
larger businesses, putting more of an emphasis on sales until they have sufficient capital and
staff to elevate the marketing function. Understanding what responsibilities a sales and
marketing division will need to handle until you more formally separate these areas will help
you maximize your resources to boost your sales and profits.
1. Goal-Setting: The sales and marketing division sets individual sales rep quotas,
as well as the overall volume goal for the company. To achieve sales goals, it creates
bonus and commissions structures. The division uses past sales figures and expert
projections to estimate which products will sell where and in what amounts.
3. Customer Service: To maintain its customer base, sales and marketing takes
responsibility for making sure buyers are happy, as well as trying to upsell them. The
division is proactive in contacting customers with surveys and special offers and is
reactive in attempting to solve any problems that might cause the company to lose
customers.
4. Promotions: The word promotions covers a broad array of sales and marketing
efforts, including advertising, social media, public relations, sales, event sponsorship,
cause marketing, discounts, loyalty programs, rebates, trade show appearances and
buyers clubs. The sales and marketing team decides which publications to advertise
in, which TV, radio or websites are best for promoting the companys products or
services, and what contests, giveaways, discounts or other marketing methods will
help it boost sales.
