The findings are: 1. Firm is more dependent Internal funds Its Good sign. 2. The firm is not utilizing assets efficiently. 3. Profit of the firm is increasing but not satisfactory.

The suggestions are as follows: Have to concentrate on short term loans to improve liquidity position. Management of manufacturing, administrative and selling expenses is necessary. The operating profit of the company is not in a good position for that company has to take alternative actions such as increasing in procurement of milk, production, and control in fixed expenses like, Administrative, Selling Etc INTRODUCTION The study paper on the topic a study financial position and Trend Analysis through Ratio Analysis at DMUL. Is partial fulfillment of requirement of BBA course in finance. It was an opportunity to learn practical aspects of industries. I have chosen this topic because Ratios are use to interpret the financial statement so that strengths and weakness of a firm as well as to know its historical performance and current financial condition can be determined. My study covers the calculation of ratios for DMUL and knows their financial performance. RATIO ANALYSIS When we observed the financial statements comprising the balance sheet and profit or loss account is that they do not give all the information related to financial operations of a firm, they can provide some extremely useful information to the extent that the balance sheet shows the financial position on a particular data in terms of structure of assets, liabilities and owners equity and profit or loss account shows the results of operation during the year. Thus the financial statements will provide a summarized view of the firm. Therefore in order to learn about the firm the careful examination of in valuable reports and statements through financial analysis or ratios is required.

Meaning and definition Ratio analysis is one of the powerful techniques which is widely used for interpreting financial statements. This technique serves as a tool for assessing the financial soundness of the business. The idea of ratio analysis was introduced by Alexander wall for the first time in 1919. ratios are quantitative relationship between two or more variables taken from financial statements. Ratio analysis is defined as, The systematic use of ratio to interpret the financial statement so that the strength and weakness of the firm as its historical performance we can find many items are co-related with each other for example current assets and current liabilities, capital and long term debt, gross profit and net profit purchase and sales etc. To take managerial decision the ratio of such items reveals the soundness of financial position. Such information will be useful for creditors, shareholders management and all other people who deal with company. Importance As tool of financial management ratio are of crucial significance. The importance of ratio analysis is lies in the fact that it presents facts on a comparative basis and enables the drawing inferences regarding the performance of the firm. Ratio analysis is relevant in assessing the performances of a firm in respect of the following aspects; Liquidity position Long term solvency Operating efficiency Overall profitability Inter firm comparison Trend analysis Liquidity position: With the help of ratio analysis conclusions can be drawn regarding the liquidity position of a firm would be satisfactory if it is able to meet its current obligations when it become dues firm can be said to have the ability to meet its short term liabilities if it has sufficient liquid funds today the

interest on its short maturing debt usually within a year as well as to repay the principal. This ability is reflected in the liquidity ratios of a firm. The liquidity ratios are particularly useful in credit analysis by banks and other suppliers of short term loans. Long term solvency: Ratio analysis is equally useful for assessing the long term financial viability of a firm. This aspect of the financial position of a borrower is of concern to the long term creditors, security analysts and the present and potential owners of a business. The long term solvency is measured by the leverage/capital structure and profitability ratios which focus on earning power and operating efficiency. Ratio analysis reveals the strengths and weakness of a firm in this respect. The leverage ratio for instance, will indicate whether a firm has reasonable proportion of various sources of finance or if it is heavily loaded with debt in which case its solvency is exposed to serious strain. Similarly the various profitability ratios would reveal whether or not the firm is able to offer adequate return to its owners consistent with the risk involved. Operating efficiency: Yet another dimension of the usefulness of the ratio analysis, relevant from the viewpoint of management, its that it throws light on the degree of efficiency in the management and utilization of its assets. The various activity ratios measure this kind of operational efficiency. In fact, the solvency of a firm is, in the ultimate analysis, dependent upon the sales revenues generated by the use of its asset total as well as its components. Overall profitability: Unlike the outside parties which are interested in one aspect of the financial position of a firm, the management is constantly concerned about the overall profitability of the enterprise. That is, they are concerned about the ability of the firm to meet its short term as well as long term obligations to its creditors, to ensure a reasonable return to its owners and secure optimum utilization of the assets of the firm. This is possible if an integrated view is taken and all the ratios are considered together.

R.S.SHETTY COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, DHARWAD

Inter firm comparison: Ratio analysis not only throws light on the financial position of a firm but also serves as a stepping stone to remedial measures. This is made possible due to inter firm comparison and comparison with industry averages. A single figure of particular ratio is meaningless unless it is related some standard or norm. One f the popular techniques are to compare the ratio of a firm with the industry average. It should be reasonably expected that the performance of a firm should be in broad conformity with that of the industry to which it belongs. An interfere comparison would demonstrate the firms positions vis--vis its compotators. If the results are at variance either with the industry average or with those of the competitors, the firm can seek to identify the probable reasons and, in that light, take remedial measures. Trend analysis: Finally, ratio analysis enables a firm to take the time dimension into account. In other words, whether the financial position of a firm is improving or deteriorating over the years. This is made possible by the use of trend analysis the significance of a trend analysis of ratios lies in the fact that the analysis can know the direction of movement ,that is ,whether the movement is favorable or unfavorable. For example, the ratio may be low as compared to the norm but the trend may be upward .On the other hand, though the present level may be satisfactory but the trend may be declining one. Limitations: Ratio analysis is a widely used tool of financial analysis. Yet, it suffers from various limitations the operational implication of this is that while using ratios, the conclusion should not be taken on their face value. Some of the limitations which characterize ratio analysis are: 1. Difficulty in comparison 2. Impact of inflation 3. Conceptual diversity

R.S.SHETTY COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, DHARWAD

Page 59

Karnataka Milk Federation, Dharwad

Difficulty in comparison One serious limitation of ratio analysis arises out of the difficulty associated with their comparison are vitiated by different procedures adopted by various firms .The differences may relate to: Differences in the basis of inventers valuation (example, last in first out next first in first out, average cost and cost ); Different depreciation methods (I.e. .straight line vs. .written down basis ); Estimated working life of assets ,particularly of plant and equipment; Amortization of intangible assets like good will, patents and so on Amortization of differed revenue expenditure such as preliminary expenditure and discount on issue of shares; Capitalization of lease; Treatment of extraordinary items of income and expenditure; and so on...Secondly, apart from different accounting procedures, companies may have different accounting periods, implying differences in the composition of the assets ,particularly current assets. For these reasons, the ratios of two firms may not be strictly comparable. Another basis of comparison is the industry average .This presupposes the availability, on a comprehensive scale, of various ratios for each industry group over a period of time. If, however as is likely such information is not compiled and available, the utility of ratio analysis would be limited.

R.S.SHETTY COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, DHARWAD

Page 60

Karnataka Milk Federation, Dharwad

Impact of inflation The second major limitation of the ratio analysis as a tool of financial analysis is associated with a price level change. This, in facts a weakness of the analysis of the traditional financial statements which are based on historical costs .An implication of this feature of the financial statements as regards ratio analysis is that assets acquired at different periods are, infect, shown at different prices I the balance sheet, as they are not adjusted for changes in the price level. As a result, ratio analysis will not yield strictly comparable and, therefore, dependable results. To illustrate there are two firms which have identical rates of return on investments ,say 15%.But one of these had acquired its fixed assets when prices were relatively low, while the other one had purchased them when prices were high . As a result, the book value of the fixed assets of the former type of firm would be lower, while that of the latter higher. From the point of profitability, the return on the investment of the firm with a lower book value would over state. Obviously, identical rate of returns on investment are not indicative of equal profitability of the two firms. This is limitations of ratios. Conceptual diversity: Yet another factor which influences the usefulness 0f ratios is that there is difference of opinion regarding the various concepts used to compute the ratios. There is always room for diversity of opinion as to what constitutes share holders equity, debt ,assets, profit and so on .Different firms may use these terms in different senses or the same the firm may use them to mean different things at different times. Reliance on the single ratio, for a particular purpose may not be a conclusive indicator. For instance the current ratio alone is not a as adequate measure of short term financial strength; it should be supplemented by the acid test ratio, debtors turnover ratio and inventory turnover ratio to have real insight into the liquidity aspect.

R.S.SHETTY COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, DHARWAD

Finally, ratios are only a postmortem analysis of what has happened between two balance sheet dates. For one thing, the position in the interim period us bit revealed by ratio analysis .Moreover, they give no clue about the future. In brief, ratio analysis suffers from some serious limitations. The analyses should not be carried away by its over simplified nature, easy competition with a high degree precision.

Classification of Ratio: 1. Liquidity ratio Current ratio Quick acid ratio Networking capital ratio 2. Capital structure ratio Debt equity ratio Proprietor ratio Coverage ratio 3. Activity ratio Inventory turnover ratio Debtors turnover ratio Creditors turnover ratio Assets turnover ratio 4. Profitability ratio Gross profit ratio Net profit ratio Operating expenses ratio Turnover on investment ratio Return on equity

Liquidity Ratios: The importance of adequate liquidity in the sense of the ability of a firm to meet current /short term obligations when they become due for payment can hardly be overstressed. In fact liquidity is a pre requisite for the very survival of a firm. The short term creditors of the firm are interested in the short term solvency or liquidity of a firm. But liquidity implies, from the viewpoint of utilization of the funds of the firm that funds are ideal or earn very little. A proper balance between the two contradictory requirements, that is, liquidity and profitability required for efficient financial management. The liquidity ratios measure the ability of firm to meet its short term obligations and reflect the term financial solvency of a firm. Leverage/capital structure ratios: The second category of financial ratio is leverage or capital structure ratios. The long term creditors would judge the soundness of a firm on the basis of the long term financial strength measured in terms of its ability to pay the interests regular as well as repay the installment of the principal on due dates or in one lump sum at the time of maturity. The long term solvency ratios of a firm can be examined by using leverage or capital structure ratios. The leverage or capital structure ratios may be defined as financial ratios which throw light on the long term solvency of a firm as reflected in its ability to assure the long term creditor with regard to: 1. Periodic payment of interest during the period of the loan 2. Repayment of principal on maturity or in pre determined installments at due dates. Activity Ratios: Activity ratios are concerned with measuring the efficiency in asset management .these ratios are also called efficiency ratios or assets utilization ratios. The efficiency with which the assets are used would be reflected in the speed and rapidity with assets is converted in to sales. The greater is the rate of turnover or conversion, the more efficient is the utilization/management, other things being equal. For this reason, such ratios are also designated as turnover ratios. Turnover is the primary mode for measuring the extent of efficient employment of assets by relating the assets to sales.

R.S.SHETTY COLLEGE OF BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION, DHARWAD

Profitability Ratios: A pert from the creditors, both short term and long term, also interested in the financial soundness of a firm are the owners and management or the company itself. The management of the firm is naturally eager to measure its operating efficiency of a firm and its ability to ensure adequate return to its shareholders depends ultimately on the profits earned by it. The profitability of a firm can be measured by its profitability ratios. In other words, the profitability ratios are designed to provide answers to questions such as: 1. Is the profit earned by the firm adequate? 2. What rate of return does it represent? 3. What is the rate of profit for various divisions and segments of the firm? 4. What is the rate of return to equity holders? Literature review DIARYING IN INDIA The association of Indian with Animal Husbandry and dairying is deeprooted in history. Since time immemorial, milk and milk products have been accepted in the diet of people of India as items of choice. It is said in Indian mythology that lord Krishna the god of righteousness grew up by drinking milk and eating bitter and ghee. He was nicknamed as Butter Krishna as he used to steal the butter in his neighborhood. The sage Vashistha possessed a sacred cow, donated by Lord Brahma, the god of knowledge, which was named as Nandini says Indian mythology. The word Nandini is the family brand of the Karnataka co-operative Milk Producers Federation, in short, KMF, which is engaged in marketing of milk and milk products.

BACKGROUND: Towards the end of 1950s a development in the kaira district of Gujarat state, paved the way for co-operative dairy in India. The milk producers of this district decided to co0me together and from a co-operative as a protection against the exploitation by the private dairy owners and middlemen in the form of un-remunerative by the prices. Sardar vallabhai Patel, a great Indian freedom fighter and the first Deputy Prime Minister of independent India, provided main impetus to the farmers. He heard the formers tale of woe and was touched to the quick. The man of action took no time to find a solution; co-operation the dairy. Thus, came the era of co-operative dairying in Indian dairying. A meeting called on January 4, 1946 in samakha village decided to set up a milk producers union limited and the kaira District union was identified as Anand milk union limited. The Anand pattern is a three tier structure consisting of the producers societies at the village lavel, which collect the milk from producers daily and pay them: the district level producers unions (a representative body of the village societies) which provide the inputs required by the farmers including artificial insemination, veterinary services and the supply of feeds; and a federation of the unions of the state level, which manages the dairy with the help of elected representative of the districts unions. On behalf of the unions, the federation undertakes the collecting marketing of milk and milk products attending to quality control. The role of the government is to supervise quite and encourage the co-operatives. The Anand pattern, their establish a direct link between the producers and consumers. To achieve this objective of replicating Anand or Amul pattern dairy co-operative society, the year 1965. The NDDB was set up under the chairmanship of Dr. V. Kurien in the objective of percolating the Anand pattern in rural India. Dharwad milk producer union limited has been established in 1986 and started function in 1988. It procures milk from many villages on daily bases.

Source: annual report of company Interpretation: The ideal ratio of the firm should be 1:1, but the ratios of the company are less than 1 in 2004-05 and 2005-06. It tells the business can not pay debts due within one year from assets that it expects to turn into cash within the year but in 2006-07 and 2008-09 it is increasing it is a good sign for organization. I. DEBT-EQUITY RATIO: It measures the relation between debt and equity in the capital structure of the firm. In other words, this ratio shows the relationship between the borrowed capital and owners capital, this ratio shows relative claim of the creditors and shareholders against the assets of the company. DER = long term debt Share-holders funds-net loss

Generally higher the ratio greater is the possibility of increasing the ROR to equity and vice versa. A high debt equity ratio may be adopted to take advantage of cheaper debt capital. The ratio indicates the extent to which the firm depends upon outside for its existence. The ratio provides margin of safety to the creditors. It tells owners the extent to which they can gain benefits of maintaining control with a limit investment. YEAR Long term Debt 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 98344158 2007-08 88710194 2008-09 82363231

Interpretation: General standard of debt Equity ratio is 2:1. Since the company is using more borrowings. But compare to 2006-07 to 2007-08 it has decreased little more it good sign. Even though it has to improve.

II. PROPRITORY RATIO: It establishes relationship between the proprietor or shareholders funds and total tangible assets. It may be expressed as: Proprietor Ratio= shareholders funds Total Assets The ratio indicates properties stake in total assets. Higher the ratio lowers the risk and lower the ratio higher the risk.

Interpretation: Since company property ratio is low in 2003-04 but later it goes on increasing in 2004-05 was 0.57 and in 2005-06 was 0.51 and 2006-07 was 0.61 and 2007-08 was 0.63 its shows the little dangers to creditors and above 50% is satisfactory. III. INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO : This is a measure of the protection available to creditors for payment of interest charges by the company. The ratio shows whether the company has sufficient income to cover its interest requirements by a wide margin. The interest coverage ratio is computed by dividing profit before interest and tax by the interest expenses. A high ratio implies adequate safety for payment of interest even if there were to be a drop in the companys earnings. The interest coverage ratio is as follows: Interest coverage Ratio = profit before interest and tax Interest expenses Interest Coverage Ratio YEAR 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 EBIT 11917496 2429693 4830399 20762147 Interest 4284974 2889174 1910180 585744 Ratio 2.78 0.84 2.52 35.44

2008-09 4567386 236572 20.43

Interpretation: Since the company interest coverage ratio is 2.78 in the year 2004-05 the company is not able to recover their interest but later it turn into positive in the year 2007-08 the ratio is 35.44 its good sign for company but it has to increase.

Turnover Ratio
1) INVENTORY/STOCK TURNOVER RATIO (ITR/STR). It indicates the efficiency of the firm in producing and selling its products. High ratio is good from the view point of liquidity and vice versa. A low ratio would signify that inventory does not sell fast and stably in the warehouse for a longtime. It is calculated as follows: Cost of goods sold OR Avg Inventory

sale (If there is no opening stock) Closing Stock

Hence Avg Inventory= Opening stock + Closing Stock 2 Avg Inventory is calculated by taking stock levels of raw materials, working process and finished goods at the beginning of year and at the end of the year and that is divided by 2. Inventory/Stock turnover Ratio: YEAR 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 Cost of 303696602 346684069 446321775 397561562 440874259 goods sold Avg 21095190 28794258 25768074 22949259 27151621 inventory Ratio 14.39 12.04 17.32 17.32 16.23 Source: Annual Report Inventory Conversion Ratio YEAR 2004-05 No. of days 365 in a year ITR 12.04 DAYS 30.31

level than required by the production and sales activities. In the period 2005-06 due to increase sales inventory convert-ion period is less but it has increased in 2008-09. In the subsequent year it has improved. 2) DEBTORS TURNOVER RATIO: Debtors constitute an important constituent of current assets and therefore the quality of debtors to great extent determines that firms liquidity. There are two ratios. They are: 1) Debtor Tern-over Ratio 2) Debtor Collection Period Ratio Debtors tern-over can be calculated by dividing total sales by balance of debtors. Debtors tern-over=Sales Debtors Higher the ratio is better, since it indicate that debts are being collected more promptly.

DEBTORS COLLECTION PERIOD This ratio indicates the extent to which the debts have been collected in time. It gives the average debt collection period. The higher is the tern-over ratio and shorter is the average collection period the better is the trade credit management and the better is the liquidity of debtors, as short collection period and high turnover ratio imply prompt payment on the part of debtors. On the other hand, low turnover ratio and long collection period reflects that payments by debtors are delayed. Debtor collection period = No. of days DTR It is helpful to the creditors and lenders of the firm to know the firms collecting within a reasonable time.

Gross profit margin ratio reflects the efficiency with Which management and implies that the firm is able to produce at relatively lower cost. A low gross profit margin reflects higher cost of goods sold due to Reduction in selling price Inefficient utilization of plant and machinery etc.. It is calculated as follows: Gross profit ratio= sales cost of goods sold Net Sales = Gross profit Net Sales *100

It would really be difficult for a low net margin ratio company to withstand these advantageous. NET PROFIT MARGIN RATIO 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 7624062 -1353071 1512197 20189449

This ratio is computed by dividing opening expenses viz. cost of goods sold plus selling expenses and general and administrative expenses (excluding interest) by sales. Operating Expenses Ratio = Operating Expenses *100 Net Sales A higher operating Expenses ratio is unfavorable, since it will have a small amount of operating income to meet interest, dividends etc.. and on the othere hand lower operating expenses ratio is favorable. OPERATING EXPENSES RATIO YAER 2004-05 2005-06 Operating 378648070 486585013 expenses Net sales 390565567 489014707 Ratio (%) 96.94 99.50

SUGGESTIONS
1. The company should increase its current assets to meet the current obligations through making credit sales, and also improve the liquidity position through increasing cash at hand and at Bank. 2. The Company can think to increase the Debt equity which is profitable to the company its helps in expansion of business or investing in some mutual funds and other market securities. Investment Is again subject to market risk, hence a special funds managers can be appointed or a broker who will take care of such aspects. 3. As is evidenced above, the resource (mainly funds) utilization of the firm has been poor. This might require an in-depth analysis of capital requirements of the firm, as the return on capital has been fluctuating even on account of increased sales. Further, the operational aspects also need to be reviewed as is in following suggestion. a. The existing debtors collection period is low and prompt, so the firm is forced to think to maintain it. But a very low collection period may also imply its inability to allow credit to its customers (dealers) and thereby losing sales and profits. Though it is a government run organization, competitiveness must be ensured, by enhanced sales through better credit policies. Conversely the credit policies with respect to purchases can adjust to the above. b. As mentioned above, the firm has small margin or Operating Profit. This can be owned to very high procurement expenses of raw-material (milk) and Staff Expenses the other operating expenses are under control. So the only remedy for the situation may be to either decrease the cost of raw material or increase the selling price of finished material. 4. As seen in the operating expenses ratio, there is increase in the operating expenses, which means there a sort of mismanagement of the expenses. Hence there is a need of better management of manufacturing, administering and selling expenses. 5. The existing capacity of DMU is 2,00,000 its of milk per day. Presently only 85,000 ltrs of milk is produced by DMU, which is not even 50% of the capacity. Hence it has to increase milk procurement routes by encourage village people to increase the cooperative milk societies (Presently 560) and add to their existing list of suppliers to DMU.

6. It is further suggested that the firm should grow less dependent on the loans as the rates of interest are on the rise. The planning for further expansion activities should take place now. Also it is dis-heartening to find that over a long period of operation of almost 25years, the firm operates only in one state. It should plan to go national and may be even International.

CONCLUSION
When we analysis its financial performance through ratio there is a decline of its profit in 2004-05 but in 2005-06 & there is a increment in its financial performance but it is not enough because the firm has 25 years experience. And it has great potential to increase its profit.
