INTRODUCTION OF THE STUDY
Ratio Analysis is powerful tool of financial analysis. A ratio is defined as “the indicated quotient
of two mathematical expressions” and “the Relationship between two or more things”. In
financial analysis, a ratio is used as a Benchmark for evaluation the financial position and
performance of a firm. The Absolute accounting figures reported in the financial position and
performance of a firm. The absolute accounting figure reported in the financial position of a
firm. An Accounting figure conveys meaning when it is related to some other relevant
Information. For example, an Rs.5 core net profit may look impressive, but the Firm’s
performance can be said to be good or bed only when the net profit figure is Related to the firm’s
Investment.
Standard of comparison:
The ratio analysis involves comparison for a useful interpretation of the financial Statements. A
single ratio in itself does not indicate favourable or unfavourable Condition. It
should be compared with some standard.
Standards of comparison may consist of:
➢ Past ratios, i.e. ratios calculated form the past financial statements of the same
firm;
➢ Competitors’ ratios, i.e., of some selected firms, especially the most
Progressive and successful competitor, at the same pint in time;
➢ Industry ratios, i.e. ratios of the industry to which the firm belongs; and
➢ Protected ratios, i.e., develop0ed using the protected or Performa, financial
Statements of the same firm.
In this project calculating the past financial statements of the same firm does ratio Analysis.

METHODOLOGY OF THE STUDY
Methodology:
Research methodology is a systematic approach in management research to achieve pre-
defined objectives. A Research design is the arrangement of conditions for collection and
analysis of data in a manner that aims to combine relevance to the research purpose with
economy in procedure.
Sources of Data: The study is based on both primary data and secondary data.
Primary Data:
Primary data are also known as raw data. Data are collected from the original source in a
controlled or an uncontrolled environment. Example of a controlled environment is experimental
research where certain variables are being controlled by the researcher. On the other hand, data
collected through observation or questionnaire survey in a natural setting are examples data
obtained in an uncontrolled environment.
The Information relating to the study is collected with the cooperation of management of
SREE KAMAKSHI ENGINEERING WORKS & SUPPLIES., who permitted me to carry on
the study and providing with requisite data through oral interviews with the employees.
Secondary Data:
The secondary data are those which have already collected and stored. It can be easily got
from records, journals, annual reports of the company etc. It will save the time, money and efforts
to 11 collect the data. Secondary data also made available through trade magazines, annual reports,
books etc. This project is based on secondary data collected through annual reports of the
organization.
Since the study is aimed at the financial aspects of the SREE KAMAKSHI
ENGINEERING WORKS & SUPPLIES., the whole data has been gathered from,
• Annuals Reports of the company.
• Broachers of the company.
• Library Books.
The period of the study has been taken from 2017 – 2022
6
LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY
• Ratio analysis only considers quantitative aspects and fully ignores the qualitative aspects.
• It does not take into consideration the reasons for fluctuation of amounts due to which results
may not be appropriate.
• It only shows the comparison or trend, actions have to be taken afterward by management
based on an analysis of ratios.
• The reliability of ratio depends upon the reliability of the original data / information
collected.
• Increases, decreases and constant changes in the price distort the comparison over period of
years.
• No Standard Definition of Ratios
• The data provided was not exactly the same as the actual data.

INDUSTRY PROFILE
Boring Tools Market :
Boring is the process of widening a hole that has previously been drilled, using a single-point
cutting tool (or a boring head containing many such tools). It is a technique for increasing the
precision of a hole's diameter and cutting a tapered hole. After drilling, boring equipment is used
to increase the diameter of the hole. It is commonly used to increase the diameter of a hole. The
Boring Tools Market has been developing at a quicker rate with considerable growth rates in
recent years, and it is expected to increase considerably in the forecast period. The booming
automotive sector all across the world, rising demand from a variety of end-use industries, and
increased manufacturing of light automobiles are all driving up demand for metal boring tools,
which might be a significant growth inducer of the market in the coming years.

CNC Tool Holders:
The spindle of your CNC machine operates the cutting tool and controls the precision process.
However, interference is required to prevent damage to your spindle and cutting tool. A tool
holder provides the necessary margin between these two components.
CNC tool holders are designed to safely hold a cutting tool in a precise location. Depending on
the tool holder you choose, some offer incomparable accuracy and a firm grip, while others allow
the cutting tool to float to prevent a broken tool.
All holders need to be precision-engineered to offer the cutting accuracy and long-lasting
performance you need. A damaged tool holder can be a major setback and costly replacement, so
it’s important to invest in the right holder and look for signs of wear.
A precision tool holder can keep your CNC machine turning out excellent workpieces of all types.
Work with a tool holder manufacturer who can help you get the most out of your CNC machine.
Versatile equipment deserves versatile accessories and tooling.
A tool holder, if maintained, can handle high-performance CNC machining day in and day out.
However, a tool holder undergoes extreme pressure with heavy use. Over time, this vital
component will need to be serviced or replaced.
Tools Holders:
Tool holders are the physical compatible connection point between machine apparatus axle and a
cutting tool, which is intended for a particular application and custom-made to upgrade both,
machine execution and functional effectiveness. The machine mount style assumes a significant
part for choice of an appropriate tool holder. Tool holders come in numerous machine mount
styles from the more established R8 style to fresher HSK or VDI mount. The projection length of
the instrument holder is the separation from the gage line to the furthest limit of the tool holder.
For smooth machining activities, it is vital that the instrument is accurately embedded in the collet
and turns throughout its procedure with decreased run-out. Increased utilization of loT for
condition-based checking of tool holders, innovative designing in tool holder, programmed and
manual machine tasks, and rising economies from developing nations positively impact the
development of this market.
10
Market Restraints: The development of the tool holders market could be disturbed by the design
of laser cutting instruments and equipment as laser cutting tools doesn't need tool holders all
through the instrument cutting procedure. Along with that constant change in foreign currencies
and unpredictable financial condition in the developing economies are could restrain the
development of the tool holder market. The strict industry regulations, lack of experts, component
quality issues, and cost related with the development of tool holders can act as restraining factor
for tool holder market.

THEORITICAL FRAMEWORK

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK OF THE STUDY
Ratio analysis is the process of determining and interpreting numerical relationship
based on financial statements. A ratio is a statistical yardstick that provides a measure of the
relationship between variables of figures. This relationship can be expressed as a percentage or
as quotient. Ratio analysis is a powerful tool of financial analysis .in financial analysis ratio is
used as a benchmark of a firm. The absolute accounting figures reported in the financial
statement do provide a meaningful understanding of the performance and financial data and to
make qualitative judgment about the firm’s financial performance.
Ratio analysis is the systematic use of ratio to interpret the financial statement so that
the strengths and weakness of a firm as well as its historical performance and current financial
position can be determined. The relational of ratio analysis lies in the fact that it makes related
information comparable. A single figure by itself has no meaning but when expressed in terms
of related figure, it yields significant inferences.
Investors in shares judge the performance of the company by observing the per share into
ratios like earnings per share, book value per share, market price per share, dividends per share
etc.
Lastly, ratio analysis is of great use of the management of the firm. Management of the
firm is interested in every aspect of ratio analysis as it is they’re overall responsibility to see
that the resources of the firm are used most efficiently and effectively and that the firm’s
financial conditions is sound.
STANDARDS FOR COMPARISON:
For making a proper use of ratios, it is essential to have fixed standard for comparison.
A ratio by itself has very little meaning unless it is compared to some appropriate standard.
Selection of proper standards of comparison is a most important element is ratio analysis. The
four most common standard used in ratio analysis are as follows:
1. Absolute
2. Historical
3. Horizontal
4. Budgeted
16
1. Absolute:
Absolute standards are those, which become generally recognized as being desirable
regardless of the type of the company, the time stage of business cycle, or the objectives
of the analyst.
2. Historical:
Historical standards involve comparing a company’s own past performance as a standard
for the present or future. But this standard may not provide a sound basis for judgment,
as the historical figure may not have represented an acceptable standard.
3. Horizontal:
In case of horizontal standards one company is compared with another or with average of
other companies of the same nature. It is also called as intra-firm comparison.
4. Budgeted:
The budgeted standard is arrived at after preparing the budget for a period. Ratios
developed from actual performance are compared to the planned ratios in the budge to
examine the degree of accomplishment to the anticipated targets of the firms.
COMPANY DIFFERENCES:
Situation of two companies are never same. Similarly, the factors influencing the performance
of a company in one-year change in another year. Thus, the comparison of the ratios of two
companies becomes difficult and meaning less when are operating in different situations.
CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS
Ratios may be classified in a number of ways keeping in view the particular purpose.
Ratios indicating profitability are calculated on the basis of the profit and loss account; those
indicating financial position are computed on the basis of the balance sheet and those which show
operating efficiency or productivity or effective use of resource are calculated on the basis of
figures in the profit and loss account and balance sheet. This classification is rather crude and
unsuitable to determine the profitability and financial position of the business. To achieve this
purpose effectively ratios may be classified as:
I. Profitability Ratios
II. Market Ratios (test)
III. Coverage Ratios
IV. Turnover Ratios 17
17
V. Financial Ratios
VI. Leverage Ratios.
I. PROFITABILITY RATIOS:
Profitability is the overall measure of the companies with regard to efficient and effective
utilization of resources at their command. It indicates in a nutshell the effectiveness of the
decisions taken by the management from time to time.
Profitability ratios are of utmost important for a concern. These ratios are calculated to
enlighten the end results of business activities which is the sole criterion of the overall efficiency
of a business concern.
The following are the important profitability ratios:
Here, cost of goods sold = opening stock + purchases + direct expense + manufacturing
expenses – closing stock – gross profit
Operating expenses = administrative expenses + selling and distribution expenses.
3.EXPENSES RATIOS:
These are calculated to ascertain the relationship that exists between operating expenses
and volume of sales. The following ratios will help in analysing operating ratio;
18
a) Material Consumed Ratio= (Material Consumed/Net Sales) X100
b) Conversion Cost Ratio= {(Labour Expenses +Manufacturing Expenses) /
Net Sales} X100
c) Administrative Expenses Ratio= (Administrative Expenses/Net Sales) X100
This ratio establishes the relationship between operating profit and sales and is calculated as
follows;
Operating Profit Ratio= (Operating Profit/Net Sales) X100
This ratio explains per rupee profit generating capacity of sales. If the cost of sales is
lower, than the net profit will be higher and then we divide it with the net sales, the result is the
sales efficiency. If lower is the net profit per rupee of sales, lower will be the sales result.
Net Profit Ratio = (Net Profit After Tax / Net Sales) X100
6.RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED:
This ratio is an indicator of the earning capacity of capital employed in the business. This
ratio is calculated as follows
Return on Capital Employed= (Operating Profit / Capital Employed) X100
Here capital employed = equity share capital + preference share capital+ undistributed
profit + reserves and surplus+ long term liabilities – fictitious assets – nonbusiness assets
This ratio is considered to be the most important ratio because it reflects the overall
efficiency with which capital is used. This ratio is a helpful tool for making capital budgeting
decisions.
7.RETURN ON SHAREHOLDER FUND:
When it is desired to work out the profitability of the company from the shareholders point
of view, then this ratio is calculated by the following formula:
19
8.RETURN ON TOTAL ASSETS:
This ratio is calculated to measure the profit after tax against the amount invested in total
assets to ascertain whether assets are being utilized properly or not. It is calculated as under:
Suppose net profit after tax is Rs. 20000 and total assets are Rs. 100000.
Return on total assets will be 20%. the higher the ratio, the better it is for concern.
This helps in determining the market price of equity shares of the company and
in estimating the company’s capacity to pay dividend to its equity shareholder. It is
calculated as follows:
Earnings Per Share= (Net Profit After Tax and Preference Dividend/No. Of Equity
Shares) X100
This ratio indicates the market value of every rupee earning in the firm and is
compared with industry average. High ratio indicates the share is overvalued and low ratio
shows that share is undervalued. It is computed by following formula
Price Earnings Ratio = (Market Price Per Equity Share/Earning Per Share) X100
For example, if the company’s share price is Rs. 40 and the earning per share is
Rs. 10 then price earnings ratio is 4 or, it means that the market value of every rupee of
earning is four times.
20
3.PAYOUT RATIO:
This ratio indicates as to what proportion of earning per share has been use for
paying dividend and what has been retained for ploughing back. This ratio is very
44
important from shareholders point of view as it tells him that if a company has used
whole or substantially the whole of its earning for paying dividend and retained nothing
for future growth and expansion purposes, then there will be very dim chances of capital
appreciation in the price of shares of such company.
4.DIVIDIEND YIELD RATIO:
This ratio is important for those investors who are interested in the dividend
income. As the shareholder purchases the in the open market, his yield (rate of return)
is not equal to the dividend declared by the company. In fact, he calculates dividend per
share by dividing the rate of dividend by paid – up value of share.
III.COVERAGE RATIOS:
This ratio indicates the extent to which the interests of the persons entitled to get a
fixed return or a scheduled repayment as per agreed terms are safe. The higher the cover,
the better it is. Under this category the following ratios are calculated;
1.FIXED INTEREST COVER:
It really measures the ability of the concern to service the debt. this ratio is very
important from lender’s point of view and indicates whether the business would earn
sufficient profits to pay periodically the interest charges. it is calculated as follows;
Fixed interest dividend cover= Net profit before interest and tax/ Interest charges
For example, if the profit after interest and tax are Rs 32,000 and interest charges
are Rs 4000 then fixed rate interest cover will be 8 times.
This ratio is important for preference shareholders entitled to get dividend at a fixed
rate in priority to equity shareholders. It is calculated as follows;
21
Fixed dividend cover= Net profit before interest and tax/ Preference dividend
For example, If the profits after interest45 and tax are Rs. 2,70,000 and dividend
on preference share is Rs. 27000, the fixed dividend cover will be 10 times
2.DEBIT SERVICE COVERAGE RATIO:
This ratio is a key financial ratio for the lenders and is calculated in order to know
the ability of a company to make payment of principal amounts on time. It is calculated
as follows;
Debt service coverage ratio=Net Operating Income/ Debt Service
IV.TURNOVER RATIOS:
These ratios are very important for a concern to judge how well facilities at the
disposal of the concern are being used or to measure the effectiveness with which a
concern uses its resources at its disposal. In short, these will indicate position of assets
usage.
1.SALES TO CAPITAL EMPLOYED RATIO :
This ratio shows the efficiency of capital employed in the business by computing
how many times capital employed is turned – over in a stated period. The ratio is
ascertained as follows;
=Sales/ Capital employed (shareholder’s fund + long term liabilities)
The higher the ratio, the greater are the profit. A low capital turnover ratio should
be taken mean that sufficient sales are not being made and profits are lower.
This Ratio measures the efficiency of the assets use. The efficient use of assets will
generate greater sales per rupee invested in all. The assets of a concern. the inefficient
use of the asset will result in low sales volume coupled with higher overhead charges
and underutilization of the available capacity.
Sales= Net fixed assets (fixed assets – depreciation)
This ratio shows how well the fixed assets are being used to generate sales in the business, the
ratio is important in case of manufacturing concern because sales are produced not only by use
of current assets but also by amount invested in fixed assets.
3.WORKING CAPITAL RATIO:
22
This ratio shows the number of times working capital is turned – over in a stated period.
It is calculated as follows;
WORKING CAPITAL RATIO =Sales/Net working capital (current assets – current
liabilities)
The higher is the ratio, the lower is the investment in working capital and the greater are
the profits. however, a very high turnover of working capital is a sign of overtrading and may
put the concern into financial difficulties.
4.TOTAL ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO:
This ratio is calculated by dividing the net sales by the value of total assets.
TOTAL ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO=Net sales/ Total assets
A high ratio is an overtrading and may put the concern into financial while a low ratio
reveals idle capacity. The traditional standard for the ratio is two times.
5.STOCK TURNOVER RATIO:
It denotes the speed at which the inventory will be converted into sales. Thereby,
contributing for the profits of the concern. When all other factors remain constant, greater the
turnover of inventory more will be efficiency of its management. further, it will be higher when
sales are maximum and the average inventory is minimum.
Stock turnover ratio= Cost of goods sold/ Average stock held during the period
Where,
Cost of goods sold= opening stock + purchases + manufacturing expenses- closing stock or
sales- gross profit.
Average stock= (opening stock + closing stock)/2
It indicates the number of times on the average the receivable is turn over in each year. The
higher the value of ratio, the more is the efficient management of debtors.
This ratio gives the average credit period enjoyed from the creditor and is calculated as under;
V.FINANCIAL RATIOS:
These ratios are calculated to judge the financial position of the concern from long term
as well as – short solvency point of view. These ratios can be divided into two broad categories.
1.Liquidity ratios
2.Stability ratios
1.LIQUIDITY RATIO:
If it is decided to study the liquidity position of the concern, in order to highlight the
relative strength of the concern in meeting their current obligations to maintain sound liquidity
and to pinpoint the difficulties if any in it, then liquidity ratios are calculated. These ratios are
used to measure the firm’s ability to meet48 short term obligations.
The important liquidity ratios are;
A. CURRENT RATIO:
This ratio is most widely used ratio. It is the ratio of current assets to current liabilities. It
shows a firm ‘s ability to cover it’s current liabilities with its current assets. It is expressed as
follows;
B. LIQUID RATIO:
This is the ratio of liquid assets to current liabilities. It shows a firm’s ability to meet
current liabilities with its most liquid assets. 1:1 ratio is considered ideal ratio for concern
because it is wise to keep the liquid assets at least equal to the liquid liabilities at all times. Liquid
assets are those assets which are readily converted into cash and will include cash balances, bills
receivable, sundry debtors and short – term investments.
24
It is calculated as under;
Though receivables are generally more liquid than inventories, there may be debts having
doubt regarding their real stability in time. So, to get idea about the absolute liquidity of
concern, both receivables and inventories are excluded from current assets and only absolute
liquid asset, such as cash, cash at bank and readily realizable are taken into consideration.
Absolute liquidity ratio is calculated as follows;
=Cash in hand and bank + short term marketable securities/ Current liabilities
In order to ascertain that there is no overstocking, the ratio of inventory to working capital
should be calculated. it is worked out as follows;
Ratio of Inventory to Working Capital =Inventory/ Working capital
Working capital is the excess of current assets over current liabilities. increase in
volume of sale a requires increase in size of inventor, but from a sound financial point of view,
inventory should not excess amount of working capital. The desirable ratio is 1:1.
2.STABILITY RATIOS:
These ratios help in ascertaining the long-term solvency of a firm which depends on
firm’s adequate resources to meet its long-term funds requirements, appropriate debt equity
mix to raise long term funds and earning to pay interest and instalment of long-term loans in
time. the following ratios can he calculated for this purpose.
This ratio explains whether the firm has raised adequate long-term funds to meet its fixed assets
requirements and is calculated as under
Fixed Assets Ratio=Fixed assets/capital employed
This ratio gives an idea as to what part of capital employed has been used in purchasing
the fixed assets for the concern. If the ratio is less than one it is good for ratio is 67.
25
B. CURRENT ASSETS TO FIXED ASSETS:
This ratio will differ from industry to industry and, therefore, no standard can be Laid down
in that increase in profit, indicates the. A decrease in the ratio may mean that trading is slack
ratio will or more This differ from industry to industry and, therefore, no standard can
mechanization has been put through. An increase in the ratio may reveal that inventories and
debtors have unduly increased or fixed assets have been intensively used. An increase in the
ratio, accompanied by business is expanding.
C.DEBT EQUITY RATIO:
It measures the extent of equity covering the debt. this ratio is calculated to measure the
relative proportions of outsider’s funds and shareholder’s funds invested in the company. It
calculated as follows;
Debt equity ratio= Long term debts/ (Shareholders funds+ long term debts)
Whether a given debt to equity ratio shows a favourable or unfavourable financial position
of the concern depends on the industry and the pattern of earning. A low ratio is generally viewed
as favourable from long term creditors point of view, because a large margin of protection
provides safety for the creditors.
D.PROPRIETARY RATIO:
A variant of debt to equity ratio is the proprietary ratio which shows the relationship
between shareholders fund and total tangible assets. this ratio is worked out as follows:
This ratio should be 1:3, one third of the assets minus current liabilities should be
acquired by shareholders fund and the other two third of the assets should be financed by
outsider’s fund.
E. CAPITAL EARNING RATIO:
This ratio establishes the relationship between the fixed interest-bearing securities and
equity shares of company. It is calculated as follows;
Capital earnings ratio=fixed interest-bearing securities/ Equity shareholders fund
VI.LEVERAGE RATIOS:
The leverage ratios explain the extent to which the debt is employed in the capital
structure of the concern. Always concern use debt funds along with equity funds, in order to
maximize the after-tax profits, thereby optimizing earnings available to equity shareholders.
26
1. OPERATING LEVERAGE:
It occurs when with fixed costs the percentage change in profits due to change in sales
volume is greater than the percentage change in sales volume. it shows the extent of the change
in earnings before interest and tax as a result of change in sales volume.
Operating leverage= Marginal contribution/ Earnings before interest and tax
2. FINANCIAL LEVERAGE:
When a firm procures debt capital to finance its needs, it is said to have financial leverage.
It tells the extent of the change in earning before tax due to change in operating income. It is
calculated with the help of following formula;
Financial leverage= Earnings before interest and tax/ Earning before tax
