Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited INDUSTRY PROFILE:

HISTORY OF FOOTWEAR: Spanish cave drawings from more than 15000 years ago show humans with animal skins or furs wrapped around their feet. The body of a well preserved “ice-man” nearly 5000 years old wears leather foot stuffed with straw. Shoes, in some form or another, have been around for a very long time. The evolution of foot coverings, from the sandal to present-day athletic shoes that are marvels of engineering, continues even today as we find new materials with which to cover our feet. We are, in fact still wearing sandals- the oldest crafted foot covering known to us. Moccasins are still readily available in the form of the loafer. In fact, many of the shoes we wear today can be traced back to another era. The Cuban heel may have been named for the dance craze of the 1920s, but the shape can be seen long before that time. Soles, which are one of the most recognizable features of footwear in the 1970s and 1990s, were handed down to us from 16th century choppiness. Then, high soles were a necessity to keep the feet off of the dirty streets. Today they are worn strictly for fashion’s sake. If one can deduce that basic shoe shapes have evolved only so much, it is necessary to discover why this has happened. It is surely not due to a lack of imagination- the colors and materials of shoes today demonstrate that. Looking at shoes from different parts of the world, one can see undeniable similarities. While the venetians were wearing the choppiness, the Japanese balanced on high-soled wooden shoes called get. Though the shape is slightly different, the idea remains the same. The venetians had no contacts with the Japanese, so it is not a case of imitation. Even the mystical Chinese practice of foot binding has been copied in our culture. Some European women and men of the past bound their feet with tape and squashed them into too-tight shoes. In fact, a survey from the early 1990s reported that 88% of American wear shoes that are too small! As one examines footwear history, both in the west and in other parts of the world, the similarities are apparent. Though the shoemakers of the past never would have thought to

3.McKinsey’s 7S Framework with special reference to the organization under study According to Waterman, organization change is not simply a matter of structure, although structure is significant variable in the management of change. Again it is also not a simple relationship between strategy and structure, although strategy is also a critical aspect. In their view effective organizational change may be understood to be a complex relationship between strategy, structure, system, style, skills & shared values. The first three elementsstrategy, structure &system are considered the “hardware” of success. The next four – style skills, staff, and shared values are called the “software”. The complex relationship is diagrammatically presented below;

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 12

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited

Origin of 7s framework The 7s framework was first mentioned in “The art of Japanese management” by Richard Pascale and Antony Athos in 1981. They had been investigating how Japanese industry had been so successful. At around the same time that Tom-Peters and Robert Waterman were exploring what made a company excellent. The 7s model was born at a meeting of these four authors in 1978. It appeared also in “In search of excellence” by Peters and Waterman and was taken up as a basic tool by the global management consultancy company Mckinsey. Since then it is known as their Mckinsey’s 7-s model.

Benefits of 7-s Model 

Diagnostic tool for understanding organization those are ineffective.



Guides organizational change.



Combines rational and hard elements with emotional and soft elements.



Managers must act on all S’s in parallel and all S’s are interrelated.

Description: The 7s framework of is a value based management (VBS) model that describes how one can holistically and effectively organize a company. Together these factors determine the way in which a corporation operates. Mckinsey 7-s model is one of the approaches of management analysis. Mckinsey model consists of 7-s. They are:  Structure-(virtual organization).  Skill-(competencies)  Style-(culture and leadership)  Strategy-(corporate, business, product or market)  System-(process)  Staff-(empowerment)  Shared values-(mission and goals)

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 13

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited According to this model, there are seven basic dimensions, which represent the core of managerial activities. These are the levels which executives use to influence complex and large organizations; obviously there was a concerted effort on the part of the originators of the model to coin the managerial variables with works beginning with the letters so as to increase the communication power of the model.

"Hard" elements are easier to define or identify and management can directly influence them: Theses are strategy statements; organization charts and reporting lines; and formal processes and IT systems. "Soft" elements, on the other hand, can be more difficult to describe, and are less tangible and more influenced by culture. However, these soft elements are as important as the hard elements if the organization is going to be successful. The way the model is presented in Figured 1 below depicts the interdependent of the elements and indicates how a change in one affects all the others.

Structure: the way the organization is structured and who reports to whom. Skill: the actual skills and competencies of the employees working for the company. Style: the style of leadership adopted Strategy: the plan devised to maintain and build competitive advantage over the competition. Systems: the daily activities and procedures that staff members engage in to get the job done. Staff: the employees and their general capabilities. Shared values: called "super ordinate goals" when the model was first developed, these are the core values of the company that are evidenced in the corporate culture and the general work ethic.

INTRODUCTION TO RATIO ANALYSIS A Ratio is an expression by accounting relationship between two numbers. It may also be defined as relationship of one amount to another. It is one number from another. Accounting Ratio are relationships expressed in mathematical terms between figures which are related with each other. They indicate the quotient of two mathematical expressions. Ratios may be expressed in percentages or in terms of “Times”. They facilitate better comparison when compared to absolute figures. Therefore they are used as one of the techniques of Financial Analysis. They help to understand the financial position and performance of enterprise in a better manner. TYPES OF RATIOS

I. LIQUIDITY RATIOS [SHORT TERM SOLVENCY RATIOS]: Liquidity refers to the ability of a concern to meet its current obligations as and when they become due.

The following are the important liquidity Ratios: 1. Current Ratio It is the ratio of current Assets to current Liabilities. It is also known as Working Capital Ratio. It helps to understand relationship between total current assets and total current liabilities. A ratio equal or near to the rule of thumb of 2:1 is considered as a standard for this ratio. 2. Liquid Ratio or Acid Test Ratio: It is the ratio of liquid assets to liquid liabilities. Liquid Assets usually include all the current assets except inventories and pre – paid expenses. Liquid liabilities usually refer to current liabilities less bank overdraft. The standard for this ratio is 1:1 3. Absolute Liquidity Ratio: This ratio establishes the relationship between the sum of cash It represents cash in hand, cash at bank and other marketable securities and their relationship with the liquid assets. This ratio is used as supplement to current ratio to assess short term financial position of an enterprise. The standard for this ratio is 0.5:1.

RESEARCH DESIGN A poorly defined problem will not yield useful results. It is rightly said that “a problem well defined is half solved”, poorly defined problems cause confusion and do not allow to develop a good research design. The question is how we can identify a research problem. Three categories of symptomatic situation namely, overt difficulties, latent difficulties and unnoticed opportunities should be studied. The problem should be briefly described and its salient features brought out.

Research can be defined as “ The systematic and objective identification, collection, analysis, dissemination and use of information for the purpose of assisting management in decision making related to the identification and solution of problems ( and opportunities ). It is a 1) Methodical, unbiased and compete investigation of subject matter to establish principles 2) Investigation of a problem to discuss pertinent information to help solve it.

Research design: “A framework or blueprint for conducting a research project. It specifies the details of the procedures necessary for obtaining the information needed to structure and or solve research projects”. There are three types of research design : a. Exploratory research design b. Conclusive research design -

Descriptive research

-

Causal Research

a. Exploratory Research : One type of research design, which has its primary objective the provision of insights into and comprehension of the problem situation confronting the researcher. b. Conclusive Research :

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 43

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited Research designed to assist the decision maker in determining, evaluating and selecting the best course of action to take in a given situation.

- Descriptive Research : A type of conclusive research that has as its major objective

the

description of something. The descriptive study is typically concerned with determining the frequency with which something occurs or how two variables vary together. This study is typically guided by an initial hypothesis. Descriptive research is conducted in the following cases: a. To describe the characteristics of relevant groups b. To estimate the percentage of units in a specified population exhibiting a certain behaviour. c. To determine the degree to which marketing variables are associated d. To make specific predictions.

- Causal Research : A type of conclusive research where the major objective is to obtain evidence regarding cause – and – effect ( causal ) relationships. The study on “Analysis of financial statements” at VKC is based on Descriptive Research Research design used in the specific study includes the following: 

Identifying the statement of the problem



Collection of the company’s specific literature i.e, annual reports for the study period and the profile of the company



Scanning through standard books to understand the theory behind the financial performance evaluation



Collection of information from various journals to understand the industrial background of the study



Decision regarding the study period in this case it was decided to be 4 years i.e, from 2007-2010.

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 44

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited 

Identification of financial tools likely to reflect capital adequacy, resources deployed, assets quality, management quality, earning quality, liquidity, cash position and trends. In this case, it was decided to use - Ratio analysis - Trend Percentages 

Calculation of the above financial tools over the study period and analysing it



Forwarding certain recommendation and conclusion to the company.

The term “methodology” refers to carefully planned procedures (should consistently follow the same procedure ). That will facilitate the comparison of results of similar investigations over a period of time as that are arrived at by other researchers investigating similar problems in various parts of the same country or in any corner of the world .

Methodology assumptions :  Definitions used are universal  Selected study period is sufficient  Selected financial ratios, trend percentages and cash flow analysis reflects the financial performance of the company.  Ultimate financial evaluation of the company is shown in its financial statements.

Sources of Data collection : After going through and weighing pros and cons of different methods of data collection, it was decided that both primary data and secondary data are suitable for the study but more emphasis was given on Secondary data. A project of this nature is by and large a desk job and primary data is of little relevance.

Sources of data: a. Primary data :

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 45

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited It is the first hand information on any happening or event. They are the original sources from which the researcher directly collects data that have not been previously collected. It was collected with the administration assistant and other staff members of finance department and through Direct interview and personal observations. b. Secondary data : Particularly it is very difficult to collect the entire information through primary sources. So the researcher has to depend on the secondary data. These are sources containing data which have been collected and compiled for another purpose. It was collected through Annual reports of the company for the past 5 years from 2003 – 2007. And from the prospectus, website of the company (VKC.com), textbooks, journals and magazines.

Tools used for data collection : a) Schedule b) Interview In this study, data is collected through schedules – i.e, data collected from the records, annual reports and financial statements of VKC rubber industries pvt ltd and Interview of finance controller and finance officers. Sampling plan : As such no sampling plan has been adopted in the above financial analysis. Field work: As such no fieldwork was involved for the study since this was an In – house desk research job. Plan for analysis : The data collected have been analysed by the use of statistical tools and techniques such as percentages, averages. Wherever necessary, the data have been presented diagrammatically using charts and tables etc.

Review of Literature :

RAJIV GANDHI INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

Page 46

Analysis of financial statements at VKC Pvt Limited The project report presupposes a good knowledge of the subject and the title, which has been chosen for a detailed analysis.

Attempts have been made to acquire the detailed

information on the subject through a detailed literature survey. This requires an extensive survey of literature available in the form of published articles in business magazines, publication of institutions, newspapers and Journals. After deciding about the topic of the project, it was decided to do a detailed literature survey, to know what type of work was already done in the similar topic. The purpose of doing a literature survey is to avoid repetition of the same study of the topic and also to understand the scope of the subject and difficulties which arise during the course of the study. It helps to study the tools and technique appropriate to suit the requirement of the company & apply them in the appropriate context and come to meaningful conclusions and find solutions to the problems faced by the company. The literature survey helped in deciding about the methodology which is adopted for the collection, analysis and presentation of data.

Interpretation:A Ratio equal or near to the rule of thumb of 2:1 i.e., Current assets double the current liabilities is considered to be satisfactory. This Rule of Thumb implies that for every one rupee of Current Liabilities, two rupees of Current Assets are available. But a Current Ratio of greater than 1.50 is normally considered to be satisfactory. However, it can be inferred from the above table and graph that in all the 4 years the current ratio its decrease from the first year. Even though it is satisfactory because its more than the standard. Since the actual ratios are less than the ideal ratios the company may find it difficult to meet its short term obligations.

Interpretation:An ideal quick ratio of 1:1 is considered not to be Satisfactory. Since, the quick ratio at VKC is above the ideal quick ratio of 1:1 during the study period in 2007&2008, and it is less than the ideal quick ratio of 1:1 during the study period 2009&2010. This high quick ratio at VKC indicates that the firm is having slow – paying debtors & all debtors cannot be realised so quickly by the firm to meet its short term obligations

Interpretation:As a general rule, there should be an appropriate mix of owner’s funds and outsider’s funds in financing the firm’s assets. A ratio of 1:1 may usually be considered to be satisfactory. At VKC the Debt – equity proportion is low & it is satisfactory from the point of view of long term creditors, because a high proportion of owner’s funds provide a larger margin of safety and substantial protection against shrinkage in assets for the outsiders, during the study period on 2008&2010. But In the same way it is not satisfactory from the firm’s point of view of long term creditors, in t during the the study period on 2007&2009. On the other hand, a low Debt – equity ratio at VKC is indicating that the shareholders of the firm are deprived of the benefits of trading on equity to magnify their earnings.
