future performance.
Financial statement analysis is of interest to shareholders, creditors, and the firm’s own
management. Both present and prospective shareholders are interested in the firm’s
current and future level of risk and return. These two dimensions directly affect share
price. The firm’s creditors are primarily interested in the short-term liquidity of the
company and in its ability to make interest and principal payments. A secondary concern
of creditors is the firm’s profitability; they want assurance that the business is healthy and
will continue to be successful. Management, like stockholders, must be concerned with
all aspects of the firm’s financial situation. Thus, this study attempts to operate in a
manner that will be favorable to both owners and creditors.
In addition, management uses ratios to monitor the firm’s financial performance from
period to period. It will also help management to make decisions regarding dividend
policies, investments, lending, borrowings etc.
Sofie Vander Meulen in his study in 2003 states that, investors as well as other
stakeholders heavily rely on a company’s financial statements. It is an important source
of information that is readily available to them at a relatively low cost. The quality of
those statements however is highly variable (aggressive reporting or not, disclosure or
not). Therefore, this research would also be obliging for the company’s investors and
stakeholders.
Through this research many of the society members will be benefited and it will be
advantageous for the economy. Like investors, researchers, creditors, management,
employees, lenders, suppliers, customers, auditors, and analysts will equally be able to
take assistance from this research.

many financial tools like ratio analysis, _______
The data and information that was gathered was interpreted and analyzed by using
different financial tools.
ANALYSIS AND
INTERPRETATION OF DATA
Financial Statements are useful because they provide information that allows investors
and creditors to make better decisions. However, because of selective reporting of
economic events as well as non-comparable accounting methods and estimates, financial
statements are only an approximation of reality. In addition, because of the tendency to
delay accounting recognition, financial statements also tend to lag reality.
Balance Sheet
Income Statement
The financial statements are interrelated and should be used and analyzed together.
Methods of financial statement analysis may be divided into two general categories,
internal analysis and comparative or external analysis.
Internal analysis uses figures from the financial statements of any one date or period to
gain an understanding of the customer. Comparative analysis may be used to determine
trends when two or more successive sets of figures are reviewed, or may be used to
evaluate a given company's financial statement against industry standards.
These methods may be used separately or in combination. They are part of the tools that
enable experienced credit professionals to reach a credit decision. Financial statements
should be spread and analyzed, with appropriate ratios and flows calculated as an aid in
the customer evaluation. As an important first step in internal analysis, the financial
statement should be examined for validity and general correctness. After the statement
has been accepted as valid and reasonably accurate, ratios should be calculated and the
figures analyzed. Internal analysis calls for an examination of items within a single
financial statement for the purpose of judging their significance in relation to the capital
of the company, its method of operation and conditions prevailing within the industry.
The major tools for internal analysis are balance sheet ratios and a working knowledge of
the line of business including the method of operation and seasonal influences.
Ratios are mathematical aids for appraisal and comparison of financial statements. They
are used to supplement currency amount inspection, to examine inter-item relationships
and to compare a specific company's performance against its industry standard.
The use of ratios reduces the influence of currency size on analysis since these
comparisons are expressed as a percentage, fraction, decimal, or rates of turnover. Only
the combinations that could be made of the items appearing in both schedules limit the
number of ratios that can be developed from the balance sheet and income statement. The
type of operation represented by the account and the nature of the risk has an important
bearing on what ratios are to be computed and studied.
Financial ratios are a popular way for users of financial statements to develop insights
into the financial performance of companies. By controlling for the effect of firm size on
the level of performance, ratios enable financial statement users to examine how a firm
has performed relative to its peers and relative to its own historical performance.
A firm’s ratios can differ from its peers or its own historical performance because it has
selected a different product market strategy, because its management team has become
more effective at implementing its strategy, or because it has selected a different financial
strategy. Sometimes firms can appear to perform differently because they have selected
different accounting methods for reporting the same underlying economic events. For this
reason, a pioneer to effective financial ratio analysis is the development of a clear
understanding of how a firm’s accounting decisions compare with those of its
competitors, or with its own decisions in prior years.
In assessing the significance of various financial data, managers often engage in ratio
analysis, the process of determining and evaluating financial ratios. A financial ratio is a
relationship that indicates something about a company's activities, such as the ratio
between the company's current assets and current liabilities or between its accounts
receivable and its annual sales. The basic source for these ratios is the company's
financial statements that contain figures on assets, liabilities, profits, and losses. Ratios
are only meaningful when compared with other information. Since they are often
compared with industry data, ratios help managers understand their company's
performance relative to that of competitors and are often used to trace performance over
time.
Ratio analysis can reveal much about a company and its operations. However, there are
several points to keep in mind about ratios. First, a ratio is just one number divided by
another. Financial ratios are only "flags" indicating areas of strength or weakness. One or
even several ratios might be misleading, but when combined with other knowledge of a
company's management and economic circumstances, ratio analysis can tell much about a
corporation. Second, there is no single correct value for a ratio. The observation that the
value of a particular ratio is too high, too low, or just right depends on the perspective of
the analyst and on the company's competitive strategy. Third, a financial ratio is
meaningful only when it is compared with some standard, such as an industry trend, ratio
trend, a ratio trend for the specific company being analyzed, or a stated management
objective.
Financial ratios can also give mixed signals about a company's financial health, and can
vary significantly among companies, industries, and over time. Other factors should also
be considered such as a company's products, management, competitors, and vision for the
future.
Focus of Ratio Analysis
Ratio analysis involves evaluating different aspects of a business enterprise which are of
great importance to different users such as management, investors, creditors, bankers,
analysts, investment advisers etc. Generally, the following ratios analyses are made while
making financial statement analysis:
Liquidity analysis mainly focuses on balance sheet relationships that indicate the ability
of a business to liquidate current and non-current liabilities.
1. Working Capital Position
The working capital of a business is the excess of current assets over current liabilities;
this is computed by the subtracting current liabilities from the current assets. The
resulting working capital figure is taken as one of the primary indications of the short-
term solvency of the business.
Working capital= Current assets – Current liabilities
The financial statement of the company (Mehmood Textile Mills) FY 2009 indicates the
following data for the calculation of Working Capital:
The analysis reveals that there was a 38% increase in the working capital position of the
company from FY`08 to FY`09 which shows that the company payed-off its short-term
liabilities efficiently.
2. Current Ratio:
Current ratio expresses the relationship of current liabilities. It is widely used as a broad
indicator of a company’s liquidity and short-term debt-paying ability. The current ratio
formula is as follows:
Current ratio = Current Assets
___________
Current Liabilities
The financial statement of the company (Mehmood Textile Mills) FY 2009 indicates the
following data for the calculation of Current Ratio:
= 1.2
= 1.2
Since the Industry average is 1, hence the results reveal that the company maintained its
current ratio on a satisfactory level i.e. pay-off current obligations efficiently and has
maintained adequate margin of safety to the creditors.
The current ratio does not take into account the make-up or composition of current assets.
The quick ratio is designed to overcome this problem by relating the most liquid assets to
current liabilities. Cash, marketable securities or short-term investments, receivables and
prepaids are included within the meaning of most liquid assets; inventory is excluded.
The acid test ratio is as follows:
Current Liabilities
The financial statement of the company (Mehmood Textile Mills) FY 2009 indicates the
following data for the calculation of Quick Ratio:
The analysis reveals that the Quick ratio of the company increased from 0.4 in FY`08 to
0.5 in FY`09 which shows that the company`s currents assets are highly dependent on
inventory (since it is less than working capital ratio).
2009 2008
Profitability ratios focus on the firm’s earnings. Each relates the returns of the firm to its
sales, equity, assets, or share value. Owners, creditors, and management pay close
attention to boosting profits due to great importance placed on earnings in the market
place.

When a firm borrows money, it promises to make a series of interest payments and then
to repay the amount that it has borrowed. If profits rise, the debt holders continue to
receive a fixed interest payment, so that all the gains go to shareholders, whereas if the
reverse happens and profits fall shareholders bear all the pain.
1. Debt Ratio:
A ratio that indicates what proportion of debt a company has relative to its assets. The
measure gives an idea to the leverage of the company along with the potential risks the

Cash flow analysis is the study of the cycle of a business' cash inflows and outflows,
with the purpose of maintaining an adequate cash flow for your business, and to provide
the basis for cash flow management.
Cash flow analysis involves examining the components of a business that affect cash
flow, such as accounts receivable, inventory, accounts payable, and credit terms. By
performing a cash flow analysis on these separate components, we can be able to more
easily identify cash flow problems and find ways to improve the cash flow of the
company.
