Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
OBJECTIVE:
To understand the information contained in financial statements with a view
to know the strength or weaknesses of the firm and to make forecast about the
future prospects of the firm and thereby enabling the financial analyst to take
different decisions regarding the operations of the firm.
RATIO ANALYSIS:
7
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
Fundamental Analysis has a very broad scope. One aspect looks at the
general (qualitative) factors of a company. The other side considers tangible and
measurable factors (quantitative). This means crunching and analyzing numbers
from the financial statements. If used in conjunction with other methods, quantitative
analysis can produce excellent results.
Ratio analysis isn't just comparing different numbers from the balance sheet,
income statement, and cash flow statement. It's comparing the number against
previous years, other companies, the industry, or even the economy in general.
Ratios look at the relationships between individual values and relate them to how a
company has performed in the past, and might perform in the future.
MEANING OF RATIO:
A ratio is one figure express in terms of another figure. It is a mathematical yardstick
that measures the relationship two figures, which are related to each other and mutually
interdependent. Ratio is express by dividing one figure by the other related figure. Thus a
ratio is an expression relating one number to another. It is simply the quotient of two
numbers. It can be expressed as a fraction or as a decimal or as a pure ratio or in absolute
figures as “so many times”. As accounting ratio is an expression relating two figures or
accounts or two sets of account heads or group contain in the financial statements.

Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
While a detailed explanation of ratio analysis is beyond the scope of this section, we
will focus on a technique, which is easy to use. It can provide you with a valuable
investment analysis tool.
However, you must be careful not to place too much importance on one ratio. You
obtain a better indication of the direction in which a company is moving when
several ratios are taken as a group.
OBJECTIVE OF RATIOS
Ratio is work out to analyze the following aspects of business organization-
A) Solvency-
1) Long term
2) Short term
3) Immediate
B) Stability
C) Profitability
D) Operational efficiency
E) Credit standing
F) Structural analysis
G) Effective utilization of resources
H) Leverage or external financing
FORMS OF RATIO:
9
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
A] As a pure ratio:
For example the equity share capital of a company is Rs. 20,00,000 & the
preference share capital is Rs. 5,00,000, the ratio of equity share capital to
preference share capital is 20,00,000: 5,00,000 or simply 4:1.
B] As a rate of times:
In the above case the equity share capital may also be described as 4 times
that of preference share capital. Similarly, the cash sales of a firm are
Rs. 12,00,000 & credit sales are Rs. 30,00,000. so the ratio of credit sales to cash
sales can be described as 2.5 [30,00,000/12,00,000] or simply by saying that the
credit sales are 2.5 times that of cash sales.
C] As a percentage:
1] Calculation of ratio
2] Comparing the ratio with some predetermined standards. The standard ratio may
be the past ratio of the same firm or industry’s average ratio or a projected ratio or
the ratio of the most successful firm in the industry. In interpreting the ratio of a
particular firm, the analyst cannot reach any fruitful conclusion unless the calculated
ratio is compared with some predetermined standard. The importance of a correct
standard is oblivious as the conclusion is going to be based on the standard itself.

earning ability and risk.

earned by the concern. The employees make use of the information available in the
financial statements.

the ratios for determining short-term, long-term and overall financial position of the
firm. Government may base its future policies on the basis of industrial information
available from various units.

decision making. Moreover, it is responsible for the overall performances of the firm
maintaining its solvency so as to be able to meets short-term and long-term
obligations to the creditors and at the same time ensuring an adequate rate of
return, consistent with safety of funds of its owner. Financial analysis may not

future.

Earnings per Share are calculated to find out overall profitability of the organization.
Earnings per Share represent earning of the company whether or not dividends are
declared. If there is only one class of shares, the earning per share are determined
by dividing net profit by the number of equity shares.
EPS measures the profits available to the equity shareholders on each share held.
Formula:
NPAT
The higher EPS will attract more investors to acquire shares in the company as it
indicates that the business is more profitable enough to pay the dividends in time.
But remember not all profit earned is going to be distributed as dividends the
company also retains some profits for the business.
For Infosys the variance of EPS ratio for 5 years is -

Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
EBITDA is the acronym for Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation, and
Amortization.
17
Financial Statements Ratio Analysis
The after tax profit margin ratio tells you the profit per sales dollar after all expenses
are deducted from sales. In other words, the after tax profit margin ratio shows you
the percentage of net sales that remains after deducting the cost of goods sold and
all other expenses including income tax expense. The calculation is: Net Income
after Tax /Net Sales.
The profit margin ratio is most useful when it is compared to 1) the same company’s
profit margin ratios from earlier accounting periods, 2) the same company’s targeted
or planned profit margin ratio for the current accounting period, and 3) the profit
margin ratios of other companies in the same industry during the same accounting
period.

(a) ROA ratio :
The return on assets (ROA) percentage shows how profitable a company's assets
are in generating revenue.
ROA can be computed as:
This number tells you what the company can do with what it has, i.e. how many
dollars of earnings they derive from each dollar of assets they control. Its a useful
number for comparing competing companies in the same industry. The number will
vary widely across different industries. Return on assets gives an indication of the
capital intensity of the company, which will depend on the industry; companies that
require large initial investments will generally have lower return on assets.
Return on Equity (ROE, Return on average common equity, return on net worth,
Return on ordinary shareholders' funds) (requity) measures the rate of return on the
ownership interest (shareholders' equity) of the common stock owners. It measures
a firm's efficiency at generating profits from every unit of shareholders' equity (also
known as net assets or assets minus liabilities). ROE shows how well a company
uses investment funds to generate earnings growth.

(f)Working Capital/Sales(x)
The Working Capital Productivity Ratio helps explain how well the company is using
its working capital. Historically this has been a useful guide to investors or
stakeholders seeking to assess a company’s ability to manage cash. Any measure
of cash management is important to understand since a business needs cash to
operate, this is the oxygen that businesses need to live. This ratio is purported to
have been established by the US management consultant George Stalk while
working in Japan. The ratio gives a possible indication of the relationship between
financial performance and process improvement.
The Working Capital Productivity ratio can be defined as:
Revenue

1- Sales amount increase by 19% but Cost of sales increase by 22% (bcoz
salaries paid to software development employees increase by 26% ). This
has resulted in a less proportionate increase by in Gross profit (15%).
2- Sales increase by 19% but debtors increase by significant 35%.
It is due to the increase in Debtors collection period from 64 to 72 days i.e.
debtors are given more credit period. This has resulted in decrease of
Debtors turnover ratio.
3- As it is a Service oriented company , it does not have any stock kept with it.
So there is no amount blocked in stock.So the investment required in working
capital is less.
4- Gross Profit Amount increase by approx 15% and Operating Net profit
amount increase by approx 18 %.This means that Operating activities of
Infosys is more efficient as compared to Software development
activities(production activities).
5- But if we see ,ultimately its Operating net profit ratio has still decrease from
32.13 to 31.72.This is due to a significant increase in Cost of sales by 22%.
6- Therefore we analyze that its Cost of sales has so much material affect that
it is reducing both GP Ratio & operating profit ratio.
7- As we will see further there is a healthy % increase in Net profit amount by
approx 18% (as compared to Gross Profit Amount by approx 15% ).
This improvement in its performance is majorly due to improvement in Extra-
ordinary items like interest received on deposits from banks (increase by
257 % ).
8- Funds available with the company has increases by approx 21% . In 2007-08
company has not issued any new equity or debt .Therefore the company has
raised its funds only through its Reserves & Surplus which is approx 21%.
9- Now the company has employed these funds in following ways:
1) Acquired new fixed assets . This has resulted in more depreciation
charged to profits in P & L a/c.This has ultimately decreases the Operating
profit ratio.

for working capital.
3- Do efficient utilization of shareholders funds to improve its ROI & ROE to
