In simple words, Arrangement of funds is called finance. All organizations need finance for
operating its different activities. So, we can say finance is just like blood for survival the
business in changing economic environment. Fund, money, saving, cash, reserves and
assets are the basics of finance. Finance word is very deep and in modern age, this word is
also known Business Finance. To create equilibrium in  business finance, we used different
tools like financial analysis, financial planning, ratio analysis, cash flow analysis, fund flow
analysis and working capital management analysis. 

DEFINITIONS:-
“That business activity which is concerned with the acquision and conservation of
capital funds in meeting the financial needs of the business enterprise.”

“Business finance can be broadly defined as the activity concerned with the planning
rising,controlling and administering the funds in the business.”

Historical Background of Finance:-

If we unlock its historical background, we find many facts that finance and financial
activities are inter-connected. Main aim of finance to get high margin on loan, in
beginning Banks started the transactions of depositing money at very low rate
of interest and then banks sell this money to the person who needs money immediately at
high rate of interest. Slowly, these banks developed  both capital and money markets.

year. 

INTRODUCTION TO TOPIC

MEANING:-
We know business is mainly concerned with the financial activities. In order to ascertain
the financial status of the business every enterprise prepares certain statements, known as
financial statements. Financial statements are mainly prepared for decision making
purposes. But the information as is provided in the financial statements is not adequately
helpful in drawing a meaningful conclusion. Thus, an effective analysis and interpretation
of financial statements is required.

Financial Statements Analysis - An Introduction

Analysis of Financial Statements

Analysis means establishing a meaningful relationship between various items of the two
financial statements with each other in such a way that a conclusion is drawn. By financial
statements we mean two statements :
(i) Profit and loss Account or Income Statement

(ii) Balance Sheet or Position Statement

These are prepared at the end of a given period of time. They are the indicators of
profitability and financial soundness of the business concern. The term financial analysis is
also known as analysis and interpretation of financial statements. It refers to the
establishing meaningful relationship between various items of the two financial statements

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 2


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

i.e. Income statement and position statement. It determines financial strength and
weaknesses of the firm.

Analysis of financial statements is an attempt to assess the efficiency and performance of


an enterprise. Thus, the analysis and interpretation of financial statements is very essential
to measure the efficiency, profitability, financial soundness and future prospects of the
business units. Financial analysis serves the following purposes :

Measuring the profitability


The main objective of a business is to earn a satisfactory return on the funds invested in it.
Financial analysis helps in ascertaining whether adequate profits are being earned on the
capital invested in the business or not. It also helps in knowing the capacity to pay the
interest and dividend.

 Indicating the trend of Achievements


Financial statements of the previous years can be compared and the trend regarding
various expenses, purchases, sales, gross profits and net profit etc. can be
ascertained. Value of assets and liabilities can be compared and the future prospects
of the business can be envisaged.
 Assessing the growth potential of the business
The trend and other analysis of the business provides sufficient information
indicating the growth potential of the business.
 Comparative position in relation to other firms
The purpose of financial statements analysis is to help the management to make a
comparative study of the profitability of various firm. engaged in similar businesses.
Such comparison also helps the management to study the position of their firm in
respect of sales, expenses, profitability and utilising capital, etc.

 Assess overall financial strength

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 3


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

The purpose of financial analysis is to assess the financial strength of the business.
Analysis also helps in taking decisions, whether funds required for the purchase of
new machines and equipments are provided from internal sources of the business or
not if yes, how much? And also to assess how much funds have been received from
external sources.

 Assess solvency of the firm


The different tools of an analysis tell us whether the firm has sufficient funds to meet
its short term and long term liabilities or not.

PARTIES INTERESTED
Analysis of financial statements has become very significant due to widespread
interest of various parties in the financial results of a business unit. The various
parties interested in the analysis of financial statements are :

(i) Investors : Shareholders or proprietors of the business are interested in the well
being of the business. They like to know the earning capacity of the business and its
prospects of future growth.

(ii) Management : The management is interested in the financial position and


performance of the enterprise as a whole and of its various divisions. It helps them in
preparing budgets and assessing the performance of various departmental heads.

(iii) Trade unions : They are interested in financial statements for negotiating the
wages or salaries or bonus agreement with the management.

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 4


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

(iv) Lenders : Lenders to the business like debenture holders, suppliers of loans and
lease are interested to know short term as well as long term solvency position of the
entity.

(v) Suppliers and trade creditors : The suppliers and other creditors are interested
to know about the solvency of the business i.e. the ability of the company to meet the
debts as and when they fall due.

(vi) Tax authorities : Tax authorities are interested in financial statements


for determining the tax liability.

(vii) Researchers : They are interested in financial statements in undertaking


research work in business affairs and practices.

(viii) Employees : They are interested to know the growth of profit. As a result of
which they can demand better remuneration and congenial working environment.

(ix) Government and their agencies : Government and their agencies need financial
information to regulate the activities of the enterprises/industries and determine
taxation policy. They suggest measures to formulate policies and and regulations.

(x) Stock exchange : The stock exchange members take interest in financial
statements for the purpose of analysis because they provide useful financial
information about companies.
Thus, we find that different parties have interest in financial statements for different
reasons.

TECHNIQUES AND TOOLS OF FINANCIAL STATEMENT


AND ANALYSIS

Financial statements give complete information about assets, liabilities, equity,


reserves, expenses and profit and loss of an enterprise. They are not readily
understandable to interested parties like creditors, shareholders, investors etc. Thus,
various techniques are employed for analyzing and
interpreting the financial statements. Techniques of analysis of financial statements
are mainly classified into three categories :

(i) Cross-sectional analysis


It is also known as inter firm comparison. This analysis helps in analyzing financial
characteristics of an enterprise with financial characteristics of another similar
enterprise in that accounting period.
For example, if company A has earned 15% profit on capital invested. This does not
say whether it is adequate or not. If we analyze further and find that a similar
company has earned 16% during the same period, then only we can make a
conclusion that company B is better. Thus, it turns into a meaningful analysis.

(ii) Time series analysis


It is also called as intra-firm comparison. According to this method, the relationship
between different items of financial statement is established, comparisons are made
and results obtained. The basis of
comparison may be :
– Comparison of the financial statements of different years of the
same business unit.
– Comparison of financial statement of a particular year of different
business units.

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 6


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

(iii) Cross-sectional cum time series analysis


This analysis is intended to compare the financial characteristics of two or more
enterprises for a defined accounting period. It is possible to extend such a
comparison over the year. This approach is most effective in analyzing of financial
statements.
The analysis and interpretation of financial statements is used to determine the
financial position. A number of tools or methods or devices are used to study the
relationship between financial statements. However, the following are the important
tools which are commonly used for analyzing and interpreting financial statements .
 Comparative financial statements
 Common size statements
 Trend analysis
 Ratio analysis
 Funds flow analysis
 Cash flow analysis

Comparative financial statements


In brief, comparative study of financial statements is the comparison of the financial
statements of the business with the previous year’s financial statements. It enables
identification of weak points and applying corrective measures. Practically, two
financial statements (balance sheet and income statement) are prepared in
comparative form for analysis purposes.

1. Comparative Balance Sheet


The comparative balance sheet shows the different assets and liabilities of the firm
on different dates to make comparison of balances from one date to another. The

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 7


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

comparative balance sheet has two columns for the data of original balance sheets. A
third column is used to show change
(increase/decrease) in figures. The fourth column may be added for giving
percentages of increase or decrease. While interpreting comparative Balance sheet
the interpreter is expected to study the following aspects :

(i) Current financial position and


Liquidity position
(ii) Long-term financial position
(iii) Profitability of the concern

(i) For studying current financial position or liquidity position of a concern one
should examine the working capital in both the years. Working capital is the excess
of current assets over current liabilities.

(ii) For studying the long-term financial position of the concern, one should examine
the changes in fixed assets, long-term liabilities and capital.

(iii) The next aspect to be studied in a comparative balance sheet is the profitability
of the concern. The study of increase or decrease in profit will help the interpreter to
observe whether the profitability has improved or not. After studying various assets
and liabilities, an opinion should be formed about the financial position of the
concern.

Comparative Income statement


The income statement provides the results of the operations of a business. This
statement traditionally is known as trading and profit and loss A/c. Important
components of income statement are net sales, cost of goods sold, selling expenses,

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 8


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

office expenses etc. The figures of the above components are matched with their
corresponding figures of previous years individually and changes are noted.
The comparative income statement gives an idea of the progress of a business
over a period of time. The changes in money value and percentage can be determined
to analyze the profitability of the business. Like comparative balance sheet, income
statement also has four columns. The first two columns are shown figures of various
items for two years. Third and fourth columns are used to show increase or decrease
in figures in absolute amount and percentages respectively. The analysis and
interpretation of income statement will involve the following :

– The increase or decrease in sales should be compared with the increase or decrease
in cost of goods sold.

– To study the operating profits

– The increase or decrease in net profit is calculated that will give an idea about the
overall profitability of the concern.

COMMON SIZE STATEMENTS AND TREND ANALYSIS


The common size statements (Balance Sheet and Income Statement) are shown in
analytical percentages. The figures of these statements are shown as percentages of
total assets, total liabilities and total sales respectively. Take the example of Balance
Sheet. The total assets are taken as 100 and different assets are expressed as a
percentage of the total. Similarly, various liabilities are taken as a part of total
liabilities.
Common size balance sheet
A statement where balance sheet items are expressed in the ratio of each asset to total
assets and the ratio of each liability is expressed in the ratio of total liabilities is

AISHWARYA INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT STUDIES AND RESEARCH, BANGALORE. Page 9


A STUDY ON FIANCIAL STATEMENT AND ANALYSIS AT BMTC BANGALORE.

called common size balance sheet. Thus the common size statement may be prepared
in the following way.
– The total assets or liabilities are taken as 100

– The individual assets are expressed as a percentage of total assets i.e. 100 and
different liabilities are calculated in relation to total liabilities.

Definition of 'Trend Analysis'

An aspect of technical analysis that tries to predict the future movement of a stock
based on past data. Trend analysis is based on the idea that what has happened in the
past gives traders an idea of what will happen in the future.
Trend analysis is used to predict a trend such as a bull
market so that investors can ride that trend until data suggests a trend reversal (e.g.,
bull market to bear market). Trend analysis is helpful because moving with trends,
as opposed to against them, can lead to profits for an investor.
