CHAPTER-I

INTRODUCTION:

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 date 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. There fore in order to learnt 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 technique 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 well as its
historical performance and current financial condition can be determined.

In the financial statements 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.

Whole taking 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.

5
Principles of Ratio Selection

The following principles should be considered before selecting the ratio:

(1) Ratio should be logically inter-related.

(2) Pseudo ratios should be avoided.

(3) Ratio must measure a material factor of business.

(4) Cost of obtaining information should be borne in mind.

(5) Ratio should be in minimum numbers.

(6) Ratio should be facilities comparable.

Advantages of Ratio Analysis

Ratio analysis is necessary to establish the relationship between two


accounting figures to highlight the significant information to the management
or users who can analyses the business situation and to monitor their
performance in a meaningful way. The following are the advantages of ratio
analysis:

(1) It facilitates the accounting information to be summarized and simplified


in a required form.

(2) It highlights the inter-relationship between the facts and figures of various
segments of business.

(3) Ratio analysis helps to remove all type of wastages and inefficiencies.

(4) It provides necessary information to the management to take prompt


decision relating to business.

(5) It helps to the management for effectively discharge its functions such as
planning, organizing, controlling, directing and forecasting.

6
(6) Ratio analysis reveals profitable and unprofitable activities. Thus, the
management is able to concentrate on unprofitable activities and consider to
improve the efficiency.

(7) Ratio analysis is used as a measuring rod for effective control of


performance of business activities.

(8) Ratios are an effective means of communication and informing about


financial soundness made by the business concern to the proprietors, investors,
creditors and other parties.

(9) Ratio analysis is an effective tool which is used for measuring the operating
results of the enterprises.

(10) It facilitates control over the operation as well as resources of the


business.

(11) Effective co-operation can be achieved through ratio analysis.

(12) Ratio analysis provides all assistance to the management to fix


responsibilities.

(13) Ratio analysis helps to determine the performance of liquidity,


profitability and solvency position of the business concern.

Limitations of Ratio Analysis

Ratio analysis is one of the important techniques of determining the


performance of financial strength and weakness of a firm. Though ratio
analysis is relevant and useful technique for the business concern, the analysis
is based on the information available in the financial statements. There are
some situations, where ratios are misused, it may lead the management to
wrong direction. The ratio analysis suffers from the following limitations:

7
Ratio analysis is used on the basis of financial statements. Number of
limitations of financial statements may affect the accuracy or quality of ratio
analysis.

Ratio analysis heavily depends on quantitative facts and figures and it ignores
qualitative data. Therefore this may limit accuracy.

Ratio Analysis is a poor measure of a firm's performance due to lack of


adequate standards laid for ideal ratios.

It is not a substitute for analysis of financial statements. It is merely used as a


tool for measuring the performance of business activities.

Ratio analysis clearly has some latitude for window dressing.

It makes comparison of ratios between companies which is questionable due


to differences in methods of accounting operation and financing.

Ratio analysis does not consider the change in price level, as such, these ratio
will not help in drawing meaningful inferences.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS

Accounting Ratios are classified on the basis of the different parties


interested in making use of the ratios. A very large number of accounting ratios
are used for the purpose of determining the financial position of a concern for
different purposes. Ratios may be broadly classified in to:

(1) Classification of Ratios on the basis of Balance Sheet.

(2) Classification of Ratios on the basis of Profit and Loss Account.

(3) Classification of Ratios on the basis of Mixed Statement (or) Balance Sheet
and Profit and Loss Account.

8
This classification further grouped in to:

I. Liquidity Ratios

II. Profitability Ratios

III. Turnover Ratios

IV. Solvency Ratios

V. Over all Profitability Ratios

These classifications are discussed hereunder:

1. Classification of Ratios on the basis of Balance Sheet: Balance sheet ratios


which establish the relationship between two balance sheet items. For
example, Current Ratio, Fixed Asset Ratio, Capital Gearing Ratio and
Liquidity Ratio etc.

2. Classification on the basis of Income Statements: These ratios deal with the
relationship between two items or two group of items of the income statement
or profit and loss account. For example, Gross Profit Ratio, Operating Ratio,
Operating Profit Ratio, and Net Profit Ratio etc.

3. Classification on the basis of Mixed Statements: These ratios also known


as Composite or Mixed Ratios or Inter Statement Ratios. The inter statement
ratios which deal with relationship between the item of profit and loss account
and item of balance sheet. For example, Return on Investment Ratio, Net
Profit to Total Asset Ratio, Creditor's Turnover Ratio, Earning Per Share Ratio
and Price Earning Ratio etc.

RATIO ANALYSIS

Ratio analysis is an accounting tool, which can be used to measure the


solvency, the profitability, and the overall financial strength of a business, by
analyzing its financial accounts (specifically the balance sheet and the profit
and loss account).

Accounting ratios are very easy to calculate and they enable a business
to highlight which areas of its finances are weak and therefore require
immediate attention.

Financial ratio analysis is a useful tool for determining a customer's


overall financial condition. Industry-wide financial ratios are published by a
variety of sources, including Dun & Bradstreet. Financial ratios are useful for
making quick comparisons. Banks and trade creditors use financial ratio
analysis to help them decide whether a business is a good credit risk or not.

Ratio analysis is a tool to help evaluate the overall financial condition


of a customer's business. Ratios are useful for making comparisons between a
customer and other businesses in an industry. A financial ratio is a simple
mathematical comparison of two or more entries from a company's financial
statements. Creditors use ratios to chart a company's progress, uncover trends
and point to potential problem areas.

There are five main categories of accounting ratio:

 Liquidity ratios, these measure the solvency of the business and its
ability to meet short-term debts.
 Profitability (or 'performance') ratios, these analyses the profit made
over the last year.
 Financial efficiency (or 'activity') ratios, these analyses the efficiency
of the business in terms of the use of its resources in generating sales.

10
 Gearing ratio, this measures the proportion of the capital of the business
which has come from external sources, and must be repaid with interest.
 Shareholders' ratios, these measure the strength of the company, its
share price and its dividends.

Ratio analysis involves the calculation and interpretation of key financial


performance indicators to provide useful insights.

Financial information is always prepared to satisfy in some way the needs


of various interested parties (the "users of accounts"). Stakeholders in the
business (whether they are internal or external to the business) seek
information to find out three fundamental questions:

(1) How is the business trading?

(2) How strong is the financial position?

(3) What are the future prospects for the business?

For outsiders, published financial accounts are an important source of


information to enable them to answer the above questions.

11
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Ratio Analysis is one of the techniques of financial analysis where ratios


are used as a yardstick for evaluating the financial condition and performance
of a firm. Analysis and interpretation of various accounting ratios gives a
better understanding of financial condition and performance of firm. Trend
ratios indicate the direction of change in the performance – improvement,
deterioration or constancy- over the year.

NEED FOR THE STUDY:

Thus it is needed for following purposes:

 The ability of the firm to meet its current obligation.


 The limit or extent to which the firm has used its borrowed funds.
 The efficiency with which the firm is utilizing in generating sales revenue.
 The operating efficiency and performance of the company .

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM:

Ratio Analysis is an important factor for the day to day operation of the
business of the company. The study is conducted to evaluate the ratio analysis
of the company and identify and know the financial position of the company.

12
OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:

 Main Objective is to study the different ratios used in


MACRONIC LAB.
 To know the mills financial performance based on ratios.
 To find out the companies efficiency based on past and present
profitability ratios
 To study the liquidity position of the company.
 To improve its future performance by analyzing its financial
statements

SCOPE OF THE STUDY:

 As it is very difficult to decide any inference from the mass of figures


included in financial statements. So in order to judge accurately the
financial health of the firm, it is generally regroup and analyze the
figures as disclosed by these financial statement.

 The use of Ratio Analysis or Accounting Ratios enables conclusions to


be drawn from the figures as to know the earning capacity, operational
efficiency, and financial condition etc. of a concern.
 The study includes the calculation of different financial ratios. It
compares three years financial statements of the company to know its
performance in these different years.
 To know whether the company is growing or incurring losses or it is
stagnant in its performance.

CHAPTER-II
REVIEW OF LITERATURE

Bollen (1999)
Conducted a study on Ratio Variables on which he found three different uses
of ratio variables in aggregate data analysis: (1) as measures of theoretical
concepts, (2) as a means to control an extraneous factor, and (3) as a correction
for heteroscedasticity. In the use of ratios as indices of concepts, a problem
can arise if it is regressed on other indices or variables that contain a common
component. For example, the relationship between two per capita measures
may be confounded with the common population component in each variable.
Regarding the second use of ratios, only under exceptional conditions will
ratio variables be a suitable means of controlling an extraneous factor. Finally,
the use of ratios to correct for heteroscedasticity is also often misused. Only
under special conditions will the common form forgers soon with ratio
variables correct for heteroscedasticity. Alternatives to ratios for each of these
cases are discussed and evaluated.
Cooper (2000)
Conducted a study on Financial Intermediation on which he observed that the
quantitative behavior of business-cycle models in which the intermediation
process acts either as a source of fluctuations or as a propagator of real shocks.
In neither case do we find convincing evidence that the intermediation process
is an important element of aggregate fluctuations. For an economy driven by
intermediation shocks, consumption is not smoother than output, investment
is negatively correlated with output, variations in the capital stock are quite
large, and interest rates are procyclical. The model economy thus fails to
match unconditional moments for the U.S. economy. We also structurally
estimate parameters of a model economy in whichintermediation and
productivity shocks are present, allowing for the intermediation process to

16
propagate the real shock. The unconditional correlations are closer to those
observed only when the intermediation shock is relatively unimportant.
Khatik S.K,Varghese Titto (2013)
“Financial analysis of steel authority of India limited” states that financial
analysis is used to analyze whether an entity is stable, solvent, liquid or
profitable enough to be invested in financial analysis is just like doctor who
examine the fitness of the human body. For analysis of the financial position
of the SAIL, gross profit ratio, net profit and operating ratio, productivity
investment and solvency ratios are calculated.

Rakesh and Kulkarni (2012) analyzed the Gujarat Food Testing industry
working capital evaluation on selected five company for the eleven years and
performed ratio analysis, descriptive statistics etc. The study concluded with
all the company financial performance with sound effective as well as current
and quick ratio, current asset on total asset, sales, turnover etc. are analyzed
with the help of hypothesis and used ANOVA. In this research also researcher
followed this attributes.

Each company could invest on the basis of current performance compared


with previous year or with other company. Decision making, additional
investment, liquidity position changes in working capital depend upon the
performance & return of company reports. Funds are highly required for day-
to -day business operations of the firm and how to utilize it and in what way
should avoid loses from the investment are discussed here plus, it happens by
ineffective management. The objective of the paper is to analyze the
performance of Food Testing industry in the selected companies from Tamil
Nadu. In addition, the data collected from the CMIE and used the tools of
ANOVA and descriptive statistics

17
Zahid and nanik (2011) concludes the overall performance of the Food
Testing sector was adversely affected by crisis through analysis of income
statement, debt payment ability, management and inventory sales, receivables,
productivity, fixed assets, etc.

Nusrat and Assocham (2014) analyzed the performance of sector analysis on


28 Food Testing companies from BSE with the attributes of net sales, net
profit, interest cost, raw material, power and fuel cost.
Virambhai (2010) Food Testing industry productivity and financial
efficiency focused on industry’s current position and its performance. It
concluded the company/management should try to increase the production,
minimize the cost and operating expenses, exercise proper control on liquidity
position, reduction of power, fuel, borrowing funds, overheads, interest
burden, etc

Ajay Kumar (2011) discussed on Indian Food Testing industry analysis with
inflation, Food Testing production, sales, Income, PAT, Income, etc. and
found the export and import performance in the crisis period.

South Asia network of economic research institute report on “Impact of


financial crisis on Food Testing industry of Pakistan” (2011) March by Imran
Alam states when developing countries saw record declines in their stock
markets. These declines were registered in those sectors which were
dependent on the markets of developed world. Its repercussions were seen in
developing countries also.

Ongoing financial crisis has affected them through many channels. However,
exports, employment and investment are suspected to be affected most. Food
Testing sector is the most important sector of Pakistan’s economy,

18
contributing about 57% to the export earnings and 46% to the employment.
The results revealed that rising unemployment rate; high cost of production,
lower demand and exchange rate volatility in foreign countries had Unpleasant
impact on Pakistan’s export indents. The main cause of the above mentioned
deteriorating conditions is said to be the ongoing financial crisis.

PROFILE OF THE STUDY

INDUSTRY PROFILE

INTRODUCTION TO THE INDUSTRY

 Background of the MACRONIC Laboratory Task Group The Partnership


for Food Protection (MACRONIC) is a group of dedicated officials from
federal, state, local, and tribal governments that have been brought together
to build the foundation of an integrated food/feed safety system in the
United States. In August 2008, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA)
hosted a national meeting, Gateway to Food Protection, which reenergized
efforts to work toward an integrated approach to address the challenges of
the growing global food supply. Following this meeting, the MACRONIC
initiative was established to provide guidance on implementing the
necessary infrastructure and food safety strategies essential to building an
integrated food/feed safety system. The MACRONIC is divided into
several focused workgroups charged with advancing federal, state, and
local partnerships in a coordinated and efficient manner. One of the
workgroups established to assist in accomplishing these goals was the
Laboratory Task Group (LTG).
 The LTG is co-led by FDA and state partners and has been meeting via
teleconference since January 2011. The MACRONIC LAB is comprised
of seven subcommittees: Accreditation, Regulatory Annex, Proficiency
Testing, Sampling, Methods, Analytical Worksheet Packages, and
Reporting (See Figure 1). These subcommittees are led by FDA and state
laboratory professionals and are comprised of members from multiple
federal, state and local agencies. Supporting reference documentation
identified by each subcommittee is embedded within these draft best

20
practices manual and consolidated in Appendix 2. Purpose of the
Food/Feed Testing Laboratories Best Practices Manual (Draft) The
MACRONIC LAB was charged to document best practices and procedures
for food/feed laboratories to support confidence in the integrity and
scientific validity of laboratory analytical data and facilitate the acceptance
of laboratory analytical data by regulatory agencies.
 The Food/Feed Testing Laboratories Best Practices Manual (Draft)
provides a set of tools, definitions, and references that laboratories can use
to improve their operations. This draft best practices manual is a summary-
level compilation of the work of the LTG subcommittees. It primarily
reflects the experiences and perspectives of FDA and state and local food
regulatory agencies who participated in the MACRONIC LAB. As such,
state, local, and tribal regulatory laboratories and FDA laboratories will be
most able to directly apply the manual’s best practices to improve their
operations. The manual may be particularly useful for governmental
laboratories that submit analytical data to regulatory agencies in support of
government food safety initiatives and routine enforcement. Laboratories
may be able to integrate these best practices into relevant initiatives and
frameworks (e.g., Manufactured Food Regulatory Program Standards
(MFRPS)). The manual does not implement the FDA Food Safety
Modernization Act (FSMA) (Pub. L. 111-353) or other statutes, nor is it a
substitute for laboratory requirements that may be proposed as part of
FSMA rulemakings. The draft best practices manual generally may be
useful to laboratories working towards the goal of establishing a food or
feed testing program that may become a functional and productive part of
a national integrated food/feed safety system.

21
SCOPE:

 This document lays down the guidelines for general as well as the
technical criteria for recognition, terms and conditions of recognition,
withdrawal cancellation of recognition and financial aspects of the
Laboratory Recognition.
 The recognition scheme is applicable to laboratories, which are
functioning independently irrespective of being an in-house laboratory or
linked directly or indirectly to any of the manufacturing / processing unit
/organization/ Institution to the satisfaction of MACRONIC provided the
laboratory demonstrates that there is no conflict of interest.
 Recognition shall be accorded to a laboratory for single premises only
where actual testing is carried out. If the laboratory carries out testing
activities in more than one premise, separate recognition for each premise
will have to be obtained with a clear demarcation of scope of recognition.
However, if the laboratory establishes field satellite laboratories for
preliminary screening tests near at the place of the primary production of
the food, the facilities can be considered as part of the central main
laboratory of the establishment, with additional scope, where conformity
tests can be carried out for the presence of the particular substance
provided such arrangements are addressed in the Quality Manual of the
Laboratory.

22
These criteria shall be applicable to Level 1- Food Laboratory, Level 2-

HISTORY OF THE INDUSTRY

Introduction:

 Food sampling is a process used to check that a food is safe and that it
does not contain harmful contaminants, or that it contains only
permitted additives at acceptable levels, or that it contains the right levels
of key ingredients and its label declarations are correct, or to know the
levels of nutrients present. A food sample is carried out by subjecting the
product to physical analysis. Analysis may be undertaken by or on behalf
of a manufacturer regarding their own product, or for official food law
enforcement or control purposes, or for research or public information.

 To undertake any analysis, unless the whole amount of food to be


considered is very small so that the food can be used for testing in its
entirety, it is usually necessary for a portion of it to be taken (e.g. a small
quantity from a full production batch, or a portion of what is on sale in a
shop) – this process is known as food sampling. In most cases with food
to be analyzed there are two levels of sampling – the first being selection
of a portion from the whole, which is then submitted to a laboratory for
testing, and the second being the laboratory’s taking of the individual
amounts necessary for individual tests that may be applied. It is the former
that is ‘food

29
 Where it is intended that the results of any analysis to relate to the food as
a whole it is crucially important that the sample is representative of that
whole – and the results of any analysis can only be meaningful if the
sampling is undertaken effectively. This is true whether the ‘whole’ is a
manufacturer’s entire production batch, or where it is a single item but too
large to all be used for the test.

 Factors relevant in considering the representativeness of a sample include


the homogeneity of the food, the relative sizes of the sample to be taken
and the whole, the potential degree of variation of the parameter(s) in
question through the whole, and the significance and intended use of the
analytical result.

SAMPLING BY MANUFACTURERS

 Food manufacturers and producers would need to satisfy themselves that


any sample taken for analysis is sufficiently representative of the food for
the analytical result to be meaningful. This is true whether the data are to
be used as the basis of labeling declarations, assurance of compliance with
legislative or other standards, monitoring of production as part of HACCP
Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points, or for routine quality control.
 In the India although various guidance is available, either from
manufacturers’ associations or from sources of standards such as British
Standards Institution (such as British Standard BS6001), some of which
may be relevant to certain food types. It is largely down to manufacturers
to make their own evaluations of need and suitability. This must be
translated into an assessment both of sample portion size and number, and
the frequency of taking samples.

30
Food law enforcement:

 In the India, enforcement is under the Food Safety Act 1990. Food
sampling is undertaken primarily by local authorities and port health
authorities for submission to public analysts for analysis. Much of the
legislation relates to food as supplied to a consumer, meaning that every
portion of a size of perishable food and foods at risk as may be supplied to
a consumer has to comply, so that in such cases the sample submitted for
analysis could simply be an entire consumer-sized portion. There are
exceptions, however, such as the sampling of nut products for the presence
of aflatoxins, which stipulate a primary sample size related to the size of
the consignment – with associated requirements for initial homogenization
to produce a smaller sample to be sent for analysis.

 The Food Safety Act 1990 affords a right for defense analysis, and for
referee analysis in case of disputed analytical results, by stipulating that
except where to do so would prevent effective analysis the sample must be
divided into three parts. The INDIA Food Standards Agency provides
supplementary guidance to the enforcement authorities to assist with the
sampling process and associated decisions by sampling officers.

 There is no set frequency or rate for the sampling of food for law
enforcement in the INDIA. Between the 1930s and 1990s there had been a
guideline minimum rate for sampling for chemical analysis (not including
samples for microbiological examination) of 2.5 samples per annum per
1000 head of population, however that was an arbitrary figure and more
recent thinking suggested that the selection of a frequency for sampling
should be based on risk. In this context risk includes all 'consumer
protection' issues such as pecuniary disadvantage from substandard or

31
counterfeit products, as well as risk to health. The Association of Public
Analysts was commissioned by the Food Standards Agency to look into
this, culminating in a scheme for Risk Based Sampling, though it has not
yet been adopted by the enforcement authorities.

FOOD GRADING:

 Involves the inspection, assessment and sorting of various foods regarding


quality, freshness, legal conformity and market value. Food grading often
occurs by hand, in which foods are assessed and sorted. Machinery is also
used to grade foods, and may involve sorting products by size, shape and
quality. For example, machinery can be used to remove spoiled food from
fresh product.

HISTORY OF FOOD TESTING:

 In the early 13th century, the king of England proclaimed the first food
regulatory law, the Assize of Bread, which prohibited bakers from mixing
ground peas and beans into bread dough. Ever since, it has been a cat and
mouse game between the food industry and the public (fast forward to
China 2008 – cheap poisonous melamine in milk powder). In the US, food
regulation dates back to early colonial times. Here is a brief overview of
the last 150 years of government and industry food regulation.

 1862 President Lincoln launches the Department of Agriculture and the


Bureau of Chemistry, the predecessor of the Food and Drug
Administration.1906 The original Food and Drugs Act is passed. It
prohibits interstate commerce in miss-branded and adulterated foods,
drinks and drugs.1906 In the aftermath of “The Jungle” by Upton Sinclair,
which detailed the horrendous sanitary and working conditions in the
meatpacking industry, the Meat Inspection Act is passed.

32
 1924 The Supreme Court rules that the Food and Drugs Act condemns
every statement, design, or device on a product’s label that may mislead or
deceive, even if technically true. 1938 A revised and expanded Federal
Food, Drug, and Cosmetic (FDC) Act of 1938 is passed. Highlights
include: safe tolerances to be set for unavoidable poisonous substances,
standards of identity, quality, and fill-of-container to be set for foods, and
authorization of factory inspections.
 1939 First Food Standards issued (for canned tomatoes, tomato purée, and
tomato paste). 1949 FDA publishes guidance to industry for the first time,
called “Procedures for the Appraisal of the Toxicity of Chemicals in Food,”
(aka the “black book”) 1950 Oleomargarine Act requires prominent
labeling of colored oleomargarine, to distinguish it from butter. (Yes,
swindlers tried to sell folks cheap margarine in the guise of butter.)
 1958 Food Additives Amendment enacted, requiring manufacturers of new
food additives to establish safety. Going forward, manufacturers were
required to declare all additives in a product. 1958 FDA publishes the first
list of food substances generally recognized as safe (GRAS). 1962
President Kennedy proclaims the Consumer Bill of Rights. Included are
the right to safety, the right to be informed, the right to choose, and the
right to be heard.
 1965 Fair Packaging and Labeling Act requires all consumer products in
interstate commerce to be honestly and informatively labeled, including
food. 1971 Artificial sweetener saccharin, included in FDA’s original
GRAS (generally recognized as safe) list, is removed from the list pending
new scientific study. 1973 California Certified Organic Farmers (CCOF)
is formed. Begins with 54 farmers mutually certifying each other’s
adherence to its own published, publicly available standards for defining
organic produce.

33
 1977 Bowing to industry pressure, the Saccharin Study and Labeling Act
is passed by Congress to stop the FDA from banning the chemical
sweetener. The act does require a label warning that saccharin has been
found to cause cancer in laboratory animals.1980 Infant Formula Act
establishes special FDA controls to ensure necessary nutritional content
and safety. 1980 The USDA Food and Nutrition Information Center
(FNIC) publishes the 1980 Dietary Guidelines for Americans. The
guidelines are to be updated every 5 years. In 1980 there were 7 relatively
simple guidelines. In the 2005 Dietary Guidelines for Americans, there
were 41 recommendations in a 71 page booklet!!!
 1982 FDA publishes first “red book” (successor to 1949 “black book”),
officially known as “Toxicological Principles for the Safety Assessment of
Direct Food Additives and Color Additives Used in Food”.1990 Nutrition
Labeling and Education Act (NLEA) is passed. It requires all packaged
foods to bear nutrition labeling and all health claims for foods to be
consistent with terms defined by the Secretary of Health and Human
Services. As a concession to food manufacturers, the FDA authorizes some
health claims for foods. The food ingredient panel, serving sizes, and terms
such as “low fat” and “light” are standardized. This is pretty much the
nutrition label as we know it today.
 1991 Nutrition facts, basic per-serving nutritional information, are required
on foods under the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990. Food
labels are to list the most important nutrients in an easy-to-follow
format.1995 Saccharin Notice Repeal Act repeals the saccharin notice
requirements of 1977. People can get their saccharin without having to read
about its risks.

34
 1995 American Heart Association initiates a food certification program
including AHA’s Heart Check Symbol to appear on certain foods. Criteria
are simple – low in saturated fat and cholesterol for healthy people over
age 2. Oh and also, a certification payment to AHA by the food
manufacturer. Now you know why sugary cereal is Heart Checked.1998
Transfer, the US Fair Trade organization is established, with a mission “to
build a more equitable and sustainable model of international trade that
benefits producers, consumers, industry and the earth”.
 2002 The 2002 Farm Bill requires retailers provide country-of-origin
(COOL) labeling for fresh beef, pork, and lamb. After repeated debilitation
and stakeholder pressures, the law would finally go into effect only 6 years
later, on Oct 1, 2008, and even then with many loopholes.

USDA ORGANIC CERTIFICATE

 2002 The National Organic Program (NOP), enacted. It restricts the use of
the term “organic” to certified organic producers. Certification is handled
by state, non-profit and private agencies that have been approved by the
US Department of Agriculture (USDA). 2003 Announcement made that
FDA will require food labels to include trans fat content. Labeling went
into effect in 2006.
 2003 The FDA announced plans to permit the manufacturers of food
products sold in the United States to make health claims on food labels
which are supported by less than conclusive evidence. From “significant
scientific consensus” before a claim can be made, industry can now rely on
“Some scientific evidence” or “Very limited and preliminary scientific
research” to make a health claim. Opponents criticize it as opening the door
to ill-founded claims. Advocates believe it will make more information
available to the public.

35
 2004 Passage of the Food Allergy Labeling and Consumer Protection Act.
Requires labeling of any food that contains one or more of: peanuts,
soybeans, cow’s milk, eggs, fish, crustacean shellfish, tree nuts, and wheat.
2004 PepsiCo launches Smart spot – designating the “more nutritious” of
its products with an easy to spot symbol on the front of package. Baked
Doritos in. Fried Doritos out.
 2005 Kraft launches Sensible Solutions, a similar initiative for its gamut of
products including sugar-free Jello, vitamin water, and Nabisco toasted
chips.2005 President’s Choice launches Blue Menu to designate its
healthier products. 2006 Hannaford Brothers Supermarket Chain launches
Guiding Stars intended to help customers choose healthy foods. Foods are
ranked 0 to 3 stars, with three stars awarded to most nutritious foods. Only
20% of the supermarket stocked items are starred, but sales of these items
increase by several percentage points.
 Sept 2008 NuVal announced – The nutritional value (NuVal) System
scores food on a scale of 1 to 100. The higher the NuVal Score, the higher
the nutrition of a food product. The score is based on a complex and *top
secret* Overall Nutritional Quality Index (ONQI) that takes into account
30 different nutrients in food. [Update: read review]. Oct 2007 Kellogg’s
Launches Nutrition at a Glance based on the European Guideline Daily
Amounts (GDA) system. Front of Package information includes daily
percentage values for 6 nutrients: calories, total fat, sodium, sugars,
vitamin A, and vitamin C.
 Oct 2008 Mars International launches GDA labeling of its foods and snacks
in the US. Oct 2008 Smart Choices launched – a pan industry effort to
promote a standardized benchmark for front of package consumer
information. Initial supporters include General Mills, Con-Agra, Coca-
Cola, PepsiCo, and Unilever. [update: read review]

36
 January 2009 Healthy Ideas launched at Giant Foods and Stop & Shop
supermarkets. Around 10% of the items qualify for this benchmark,
developed by the grocers’ nutrition experts and based on FDA and USDA
guidelines. January 2009 Sara Lee introduces Nutritional Spotlight front of
package labels for bread, bun, and bagel products. This move is in contrast
to an industry wide attempt by manufacturers to create a unified Smart
Choice label. This label is similar to Mars’ and Kelloggs’ recent efforts.

Food testing strips:

 Food testing strip are products that help determine whether or not food
contains bacteria that can cause food borne illness. These products can
typically be used on food, water, and hard surfaces, and are often designed
for quick and easy home and commercial use.

Categories of Food Strips:

 Currently, there are two categories of food testing strips on the market.

 One type of food testing strip is an assay enzyme reactant test. This test
requires the food testing strip to be dipped into a blended mixture of food
or test samples, distilled water and a reagent. These strips are designed
specifically to detect those strains of E.coli and Salmonella that are
harmful to humans.

 A second type of food testing strip is a gram-negative swab, which is


usually administered directly to the food itself. Gram-negative swabs
generally work faster than enzyme reactant strips, but they differ in that the
gram-negative swabs are designed to detect a broad group of organisms,
not just those that can cause food borne illness in humans.

37
Usage of Food Strips:

 The enzyme reactant test strips react when the buffer solution breaks the
bacterial wall. This breach releases enzymes, which react upon contact to
the enzyme test strips.
 The gram-negative reactant activates when components of the gram-
negative cell wall or specific enzymes are present, causing the swab itself
to change color. This is not directly indicative of the presence or absence
of human pathogen in the test sample.
 People are now working on new ways to enhance these pathogen strips
with silk pills and new nano-fiber technology

DATA ANANLYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

MEANING AND DEFINITION

 Ratio analysis is one of the powerful techniques which are widely used
for interpreting financial statements. This technique serves as a tool for
assessing the financial soundness of the business. it can be used to
compare the risk and return relationship of firms of different sizes. The
term ratio refers to the numerical or quantitative relationship between
two items/ variables.
 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 systemic use of ratio to interpret the
financial statement so that the strength and weakness of the firm a well
as its historical performance and current financial condition can be
determined.
 In the financial statement 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

44
INTRODUCTION TO RADIO ANALYSIS

Ratio analysis is a technique of analyzing the financial statement of


industrial concerns. Now a day this technique is sophisticated and is commonly
used in business concerns. Ratio analysis is not an end but it is only means of better
understanding of financial strength and and weakness of a firm.

Ratio analysis is one of the most powerful tools of financial analysis which
helps in analyzing and interpreting the health of the firm. Ratio’s are proved as the
basic instrument in the control process and act as back bone in schemes of the
business forecast.

With the help of ratio we can determine

 The ability of the firm to meet its current obligation.


 The limit or extent to which the firm has used its borrowed funds.
 The efficiency with which the firm is utilizing in generating sales revenue.
 The operating efficiency and performance of the company .

Classification of Ratios

Ratios can be classified into different categories depending upon the


basis of classification.

45
I. TRADITIONAL CLASSIFICATION

Traditional Classification has been on the basis of financial statements,


on which ratio may be classified as follows.

1. Profit & Loss account ratios.

E.g. Gross Profit Ratio, Net Profit Ratio, Operating Ratio etc

2. Balance sheet ratio.

E.g. Current Ratio, Debt Equity Ratio, Working Capital Ratio etc

3. Composite/Mixed ratio.

E.g. Stock Turnover Ratio, Debtors Turnover Ratios, Fixed Assets

Turnover Ratio etc

46
II. FUNCTIONAL CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS

Functional ratios

1. Liquidity ratios
a) Current Ratio
b) Quick Ratio

2. Leverage Ratios

a) Debt-equity Ratio
b) Current Asset to Proprietor’s fund Ratio

III. PROBABILITY RATIOS

b. Operating profit Ratio

c. Return on investment

IV. ACTIVITY RATIO

i. Inventory Turnover Ratio

ii. Asset Turnover Ratio:

a. Fixed Asset Turnover Ratio


b. Current Asset Turnover Ratio
iii. Working Capital Turnover Ratio.

47
ANALYSIS & INTREPRETATION

I. Liquidity Ratio

Liquidity ratio measures the ability of the firm to meet its current
obligation (liabilities). In fact analysis of liquidity needs the preparation of
cash budget and cash and fund flow statement but liquidity ratio, by
establishing a relationship between cash and other current asset to current
obligation, to provide a quick measure of liquidity. A firm should ensure that
it doesn’t suffer lack of liquidity and also that it dose not have excess liquidity.

The common liquidity ratios are:-

1. Current Ratio

Current ratio may be defined as the relationship between current asset


and current liabilities. This is a measure of general liquidity & is most widely
used to make analysis of short-turn financial position or liquidity of firm. It is
calculated by dividing the total current assets by total current liabilities.

Current Ratio = Current Assets

Current Liabilities

INTERPRETATION

The above table shows that MACRONIC LAB’s current ratio has
decreased from 3.04 to 0.54 in the year 2011 and 2012 and in the year 2013 it
was drastically fluctuated to 0.48 and then the year 2015 it raise to 0.48 but
again decreased to 0.45 in the 2016.

The company had the fluctuation of 6076.18% increase in current assets


and 0.54% in current liabilities.in the year 2015 the current assets has
decreased by 11159.41% and 0.54% in current liabilities.

An ideal current ratio is 2:1 for every one rupee of current liabilities,
current assets of doable rupee are available. The current ratio determines
margin of safety for creditors, there has been decrease in the ratio during 2016
compared with 2015.

2. Quick Ratio/Acid Test Ratio

Quick ratio establishes relationship between quick or liquid assets &


current liabilities. It is also known as acid test ratio. An asset is said to be
liquid if it can be converted into case within short period of time without loss
of value. The prepaid expenses and stock were excluded.

increase in current liabilities and in the year 2015 there was increase in quick
asset 33.56% and 10.82% decrease in current liabilities.

This ratio measures firm’s ability to serve short term liabilities. The ideal
quick ratio is “1”. A low quick ratio represents that firm’s liquidity poison is
not good.

II. Leverage Ratios

Leverage ratios are also known as capital structure ratio. These ratios
indicate mix of funds provided by owners & lenders. As a general rule these
should be appropriate mix debt & owners equity in financing the firm’s assets.

Leverage ratios are calculated to judge the long long-term financial


position of the company. Some of the popular leverage ratios are:

a. Debt-Equity Ratio

Debt-Equity ratio shows the relative contribution of creditors and


owners. Debt-Equity also known as External-Internal equity ratio. It is
calculated to measure the relative claims of outsiders against firm assets.

Debt-Equity Ratio = Total Debt

0.188% in net worth.

Debt equity ratio measures ultimate solvency of the company. It provides a


margin of safety to creditors, thus when the ratio is smaller the creditors are
more secured. An appropriate debt equity ratio is 0.33.A ratio higher than this
is an indication of risky financial policies.

54
b. Current Assets to Proprietor’s funds ratio

This ratio is calculated by dividing total current assets by shareholders


funds. It indicates the extent to which proprietor funds are invested in current
assets. There is no rule of thumb for this ratio & depending upon the nature of
the business there may be different ratios for different firms.

56
II. Profitability Ratios

The primary objective of a business undertaking is to earn profits.


Profit is the difference between revenue & expenses over a period of time.
Profit is output of a company & company will have no further if it fails to
make sufficient profit Profits are thus a useful measure of overall efficiency
of a firm.

These ratios are calculated to measure the operating efficiency of the


company. Beside management, creditors, owners are also interested in the
profitability of the company. Generally profitability ratios are calculated either
in relation to sales or in relation to investment. The various profitable ratios
are:

I In Relation to Sales

Gross Profit Ratio

G.P.Ratio measures the relationship between gross profits & sales; it is

Inventory turnover ratio indicates the number of times stock has been turned over during
the period & evaluates efficiency with which a firm is able manage inventory.

The ratio is calculated by dividing the net sales divided by average inventory at cost.

SUGGESTION

A ratio is a way of comparing two or more quantities. Analysing any company’s current
ration, quick ratio, Debt-Equity ratio, Gross Margin percentage, Net Profit Margin, Operating
Profit Margin, Depreciation Expense to Operating expense ration, Inventory Turnover, Times
Interest Earned is Ration analysis.

Ratio analysis is used to judge the financial success of an economic entity. One popular
ratio is the current ratio which is current assets divided by current liabilities. This provides an
idea of whether the entity can pay forthcoming bills. A ratio of less than one is a dangerous signal
in that current bills are greater than current assets such as cash. This report is based on the rules
of Business Mathematics. It carries a minimum marks. This report will help us to upgrade our
grades we get in our exams. It also enrich our knowledge about ratio analysing of companies.

1. The company may improve its current ratio by decreasing the current liabilities because
in the year 2015-16 current assets are decreased and it may also improve its quick ratio.

2. The company may decrease its total debt as there is increase in total debt the year 2015-16.
The company may increase its investment in current assets.

3. Long terms solvency of the company has to be improved by limiting amount invested by
outsiders to the amount invested by the owner of the company. This can be achieved by
purchasing the shares gradually.

4. The proper management of the inventory can improve liquidity position and efficiency of
the company.

Ratios are just one number divided by another and as such really don’t mean much. The
trick is in the way ratios are analyzed and used by the decision maker. A good strategy is to
compare the ratios to some sort of benchmark, such as industry averages or to what a company
has done in the past, or both. Once ratios are calculated, an analyst needs some benchmarks to
find out where the company stands at that particular point. Useful benchmarks are industry
comparisons and company trends.
75
It may be useful to compare a company to certain industry averages to get a feel for how
the company is performing. In that case it is necessary to obtain industry performance measures.
One of the ways in which financial statements can be put to work is through ratio analysis. Ratios
are simply one number divided by another; as such they may or not be meaningful. In finance,
ratios are usually two financial statement items that may be related to one another and may
provide the prudent user a good deal of information. Of the myriad of ratios that could be
generated, some will be more meaningful than others. Generally ratios are divided into four areas
of classification that provide different kinds of information: liquidity, turnover, profitability and
debt.

76
RECOMMENDATIONS

• MACRONIC LAB doesn’t have any direct market and outlets so it can be a disadvantage
so they should facilitate their customers through pricing strategies and if they start direct market
or open the outlets so the prices will fall automatically and customers need not to pay any extra
money to the suppliers.

• MACRONIC LAB Pakistan mostly depends on the local raw material and sometimes the
quality of the raw material is not as good as in the other countries so they should not rely on the
local raw material if they want to provide the quality products.

• ENERGY foods should introduce other product lines and expand the business.

• ENERGY foods should distribute their products to more geographical areas.

• As MACRONIC LAB is a well-known product and ENERGY food is not as known


internationally as MACRONIC LAB is, so they need to spend more money on the marketing
activities.

• ENERGY food is better than MACRONIC LAB in the financial analysis so if they expand
their product line and cover the same geographical area as MACRONIC LAB has covered so
ENERGY can appear as a strong competitor of MACRONIC LAB.

77
CONCLUSION

Reveals the performance of the company in terms of financial aspects. It is found that there
is increase in sales gross profit during 2012 to 2016. The cash balance is also increased for the
above Saied years this is due to company’s revised policy in debt collection. It is also observed
that the current ratio is not so satisfactory which creates chunks in the current assets in the form
of sundry debtors and inventory.

Ratios are a powerful tool in the interpretation of the accounts and can discover issues and
problems not immediately evident from the accounts and financial information provided in the
annual report. The can provide the basis for inter-firm comparisons allowing managers to
benchmark the performance and efficiency of the firm against its competitors. Trends can then
be examined and analysed. Stakeholders may use ratios to support their decision making.
Employees, for example may use profit ratios to support pay claims and creditors can use liquidity
ratios to evaluate whether debts will be repaid.

Since a ratio is simply a mathematically comparison based on proportions, big and small
companies can be use ratios to compare their financial information. In a sense, financial ratios
don't take into consideration the size of a company or the industry. Ratios are just a raw
computation of financial position and performance.

After all the findings, it is concluded that financial ratios are the basic and most important
part of any business. It describes the firm’s financial position. As the data indicates that
MACRONIC LAB is an international brand and has expanded its business on the large
geographical area and also offers the large range of products, but on the other side ENERGY food
offers the limited range of the products and most of them are dairy products.

From the financial statements it is clear that the financial position of the MACRONIC LAB
is far better than ENERGY as it is more preferred by the customers and also an internationally
distributed. It also has less risk. It gives more return because it gains more profit than ENERGY.
78
On the other hand ENERGY deals with the limited products in a limited geographical area but on
the basis of financial ratios ENERGY has a better financial position and also has an opportunity
to expand its business. Both the companies have some opportunities and threads and they need to
work on it.
