liabilities. In 2011 the current ratio of Bata was 1.47 times that means Bata had 1.47tk current
assets to pay off its 1tk current liability. In 2011 the current ratio of Apex was 1.12 times that
means Apex had 1.12tk current assets to pay off its 1tk current liability.From2011 to 2014 the
liquidity of Bata was increasing where the liquidity of Apex was in between increase and
decrease slightly. From 2014 to 2015 the liquidity of Bata was increased to 1.95 and the liquidity
of Apex was decreased to 1.08.
However, all the current ratios were below standard (2:1). So, the overall liquidity position of
both companies was below standard.

The quick ratio is a financial ratio used to gauge a company's liquidity. The quick ratio is also
known as the acid test ratio. The quick ratio compares the total amount of cash + marketable
securities + accounts receivable to the amount of current liabilities.

Risk Ratio:
Times-Interest-Earned (TIE) Ratio
Times interest earned (TIE) or interest coverage ratio is a measure of a company's ability to
honor its debt payments. It may be calculated as either EBIT or EBIT divided by the total interest
payable. Interest Charges = traditionally "charges" refers to interest expense found on the income
statement.
TIE measures the extent to which a firm’s earnings before interest and taxes can decline before
these earnings are unable to cover annual interest cost.

TIE ratio measures the extent to which a business has enough EBIT to pay off its interest
expense. In 2011 the TIE of Apex was 1.78 times that means Apex had 1.78 taka EBIT to pay its
1 taka interest expense. In 2011 the TIE ratio of Bata was 40.10 times that means Bata had 40.10
taka EBIT to pay 1 taka interest expense. The TIE ratio of Bata is increasing because of higher
EBIT generation in comparison to Apex. From 2011 to 2012 TIE ratio of Bata increased
abnormally to 226.47 times. The reason behind the abnormal TIE ratio of Bata may be the higher
EBIT generation to pay its lower interest expenses. From 2013 to 2015 the TIE ratio of Apex is
almost stable but the TIE ratio of Bata is increasing. So the overall risk condition of Apex is
stable and Bata is fluctuating.
Debt Ratio
Debt/Equity Ratio is a debt ratio used to measure a company's financial leverage, calculated by
dividing a company's total liabilities by its stockholders' equity. The D/E ratio indicates how
much debt a company is using to finance its assets relative to the amount of value represented in
shareholders' equity.

Debt ratio measures the extent to which how much a company has taken loan to finance its total
asset. In 2011 the debt ratio of Apex was 71% that means Apex had 71 taka loan to finance its
100 taka asset.In 2011 the debt ratio of Bata was 56% that means Bata had 56 taka loan to
finance its 100 taka total asset. The debt ratio of Apex is increasing because of high amount of
total liabilities than Bata. From 2012 to 2015 the debt ratio of Apex was increasing. But the
scenario was totally opposite in Bata. From 2012 to 2015 debt ratio of Bata was declining, so
overall risk condition of Apex was increasing and the percentage of Bata’s assets financed by
creditors was decreasing. So Bata is less dependent on the creditors for its financing of assets.
Efficiency Ratio:
2012; 26.70
ART ratio measures the extent to which a business is efficient in managing accounts receivable.
In 2011 the ART ratio of Apex shoe was 9.96 taka that means in comparison to 9.96 taka sales
Apex shoe had 1 taka accounts receivable. From 2011 to 2103 the ART ratio of Apex shoe was
increasing but in 2014 and 2015 the ART ratio was decreasing because of the high accounts
receivable generating. From 2011 to 2012 the ART ratio of Apex shoe was increased but the ART
ratio of Bata shoe was decreased. The overall situation of Bata shoe was decreasing. In
comparison to Apex shoe the ART ratio of Bata shoe was continuously decreasing because of the
high accounts receivable generating. The overall situation of Apex shoe was quite stable and the
overall situation of Bata shoe was decreasing and Apex shoe is less efficient than Bata shoe.
The inventory turnover ratio is an efficiency ratio that shows how effectively inventory is
managed by comparing cost of goods sold with average inventory for a period. This measures
how many times average inventory is "turned" or sold during a period. In other words, it
measures how many times a company sold its total average inventory dollar amount during the
year.
Inventory turnover ratio measures the extent to which hoe much a business is efficient in
managing its inventory. In 2011 the inventory turnover ratio of Apex shoe was 2.88 times that
means out off 2.88 taka COGS inventory was only 1 taka. From 2011 to 2012 the efficiency of
Apex shoe was decreased but the efficiency of Bata shoe was increased and from 2013 to 2014
the efficiency of Apex shoe was decreased but the efficiency of Bata shoe was increased. The
overall situation of both companies was fluctuating and Apex shoe is less efficient than Bata
shoe.
Fixed asset turnover ratio compares the sales revenue a company to its fixed assets. This ratio
tells us how effectively and efficiently a company is using its fixed assets to generate revenues.
This ratio indicates the productivity of fixed assets in generating revenues. If a company has a
high fixed asset turnover ratio, it shows that the company is efficient at managing its fixed
assets. Fixed assets are important because they usually represent the largest component of total
assets.
Fixed asset turnover ratio measures the extent to which how much sales are generated by using
fixed asset. In 2011 the FAT ratio was 5.03 times that means by using 1 taka fixed asset Apex
shoe generated 5.03 taka sales. From 2014 to 2015 the efficiency of Apex shoe was decreased
because of lower sales generation but the efficiency of Bata shoe was increased higher sales
generation. From 2014 to 2015 the efficiency of Apex shoe was decreased because of lower sales
generation but the efficiency of Bata shoe was increased because of higher sales generation. The
overall situation of both companies was fluctuating and Apex shoe is less efficient than Bata
shoe.
Asset turnover is a financial ratio that measures the efficiency of a company's use of its assets in
generating sales revenue or sales income to the company. Companies with low profit margins
tend to have high asset turnover, while those with high profit margins have low asset turnover.
Total asset turnover ratio measures the extent to which a business is maintaining less total asset.

TAT ratio measures the extent to which how much sales are generated by using total asset. In
2011 the TAT ratio of Apex shoe was 1.32 times that means by using 1 taka total asset Apex shoe
generated 1.32 taka sales. The overall efficiency of both companies was in decreasing trend
because of high amount of total asset. So, Apex shoe is less efficient than Bata shoe.
Accounts receivable turnover is an efficiency ratio that a company is efficient in managing its
accounts receivable. It also shows how effectively inventory is managed by comparing cost of
goods sold with average inventory for a period.
APT ratio measures the extent to which how much a business is efficient in managing its
accounts payable. In 2011 the APT ratio of Apex shoe was 5.35 times that means out off 5.35
taka COGS accounts payable was only 1 taka. From 2012 to 2013 the efficiency of Apex shoe
was low because of high COGS but the efficiency of Bata shoe was high because of high
accounts payable. From 2013 to 2014 the efficiency of Apex was low because of lower accounts
payable and the efficiency of Bata shoe was high because of high accounts payable. The overall
efficiency of Apex shoe was in decreasing trend but the overall efficiency of Bata shoe was
fluctuating and the Apex shoe was less efficient than Bata shoe.
The price-earnings ratio (P/E Ratio) is the ratio for valuing a company that measures its current
share price relative to its per-share earnings. P/E measure the extent to which an investor is

companies EPS. In 2011 the P/E of Bata was 14.10times that means investors were willing to
pay 14.10tk to earn 1tk EPS. From 2012 to 2015 P/E of Bata had been increased from 10.05 to
21.67 times an investor should buy the share as the growth opportunity is well.
In 2012 the P/E of Apex was 12.74times, that means investors were willing to pay12.74tkto earn
1tk EPS. From 2012 to 2014 P/E of Apex had been increased to 22.88from 10.91 times but in
2015 it was hugely increased to 74.63 times. As the growth opportunity is high so investors
should buy this share. If we compare the ratios, we can say that Apex is in a better position.

ratio of Bata Shoe. Apex’s quick ratio and current ratio indicates their lower ability to
pay back to their creditors.
2. Profitability Ratio: The position of profitability ratio of Apex Shoe was below than the
Bata Shoe. We can say that it is riskier to invest in Apex while investing in Bata is wise.
3. Risk Ratio:
a) The times interest earned ratio also shows the weaker position of Apex. But Bata’s
TIE ratio is also very much higher.
b) Apex’s debt ratio is which means Apex has a lot of liabilities comparing to its
total assets. Apex depends a lot to its creditors for financing its assets. On the
other hand, Bata holds a decent figure of debt ratio.
4. Efficiency Ratio:
a) The accounts receivable turnover ratio, total asset turnover ratio and fixed asset
turnover ratio for Apex were lower than Bata.
b) The inventory turnover ratio of Apex in the beginning was higher than Bata but
gradually it was decreasing from 2012 to 2015. And the inventory turnover ratio of
Bata was almost stable from 2012 to 2015.
c) The overall accounts payable ratio of Apex was in better position than Bata because
the bargaining power of Apex was better than the Bata.
5. Market Performance Ratio: The price to earnings ratio of Apex was better than the
