FINANCIAL STATEMENTS:
Financial statements, as used in corporate business houses, refer to a set of reports
and schedules, which an accountant prepares at the end of the period of time for a business
enterprise. The financial statements are the means with the help of which the accounting system
performs its main function of providing summarized information about the financial affairs of
the business. These statements comprise balance sheet or position statement and profit and loss
account or income statement. In India, every company has to present its financial statements in
the form and contents as prescribed under section 211 of the companies Act, 1956.

comparative financial statements, trend analysis, Ratio analysis and cash flow statements,
statements of change in Working capital, etc., can be used.
2. Ratio Analysis:
Ratio analysis is the most widely used tool of financial analysis. It is essentially an
attempt to develop meaningful relationship between individual items or group of items in the
balance sheet or profit and loss account. The objects and utility of ratio analysis is confined not
only to the internal parties but to the credit suppliers, bans and lending institutions also. Ratio
analysis tells about the financial position of the enterprise as to whether the capital structure of
the business is in proper order, whether the capital structure of the enterprise is satisfactory,
whether the credit policy in relation to sales and purchases is sound and whether the company is

During the year under review, the Company made rapid strides on the technology front
with emphasis on high
technology low volume areas in the strategic sectors. The overall performance of the Company
was quite satisfactory though there was marginal decline in turnover and profit. However, the
Company is quite confident of achieving an improved performance in the years to come, as a
result of a number of actions initiated that would in turn not only enlarge the technology base
but also significantly open up new windows of opportunities.
The Company registered a turnover of Rs.771 Crore against an MoU target of Rs. 781
Crore. The financial results reflect a pre-tax profit of Rs.51 Crore for the year. Non-receipt of
order from Ministry of Home Affairs and issues relating to evaluation in case of Electronic
Warfare Projects were prime contributing factors to the shortfall. Sectorally, the major
contributions to the turnover during the year were from the Defence Sector, accounting for 42%
and the Nuclear Sector, for 22%. The rest was contributed by the Space and Security Products &
Systems, IT services, etc. In the Nuclear Sector, the Company received accolades for supplying
4
Control & Instrumentation Packages to Tarapur-4 Nuclear Power Plant that went critical
recently, 7 months ahead of schedule. The Company continues to enjoy the patronage of Nuclear
Power Plants in respect of supply of C&I packages. On the Defence front, the Company played a
significant role in commencement of supply of Electronic Warfare Systems to Air Force and in

Role of Compensation and Reward in Organization:
Compensation and Reward system plays vital role in a business organization. Since,
among four Ms, i.e Men, Material, Machine and Money, Men has been most important factor, it
is impossible to imagine a business process without Men.
3
Land, Labor, Capital and Organization are four major factors of production.
Every factor contributes to the process of production/business. It expects return from the
business process such as Rent is the return expected by the Landlord. similarly Capitalist expects
Interest and Organizers i.e Entrepreneur expects profits. The labour expects wages from the
process.
It is evident that other factors are in-human factors and as such labour plays vital role in
bringing about the process of production/business in motion. The other factors being human, has
expectations, emotions, ambitions and egos. Labour therefore expects to have fair share in the
business/production process.
Therefore a fair compensation system is a must for every business organization. The fair
compensation system will help in the following:
1. If an ideal compensation system is designed, it will have positive impact on the efficiency
and results produced by workmen.
2. Such system will encourage the normal worker to perform better and achieve the
standards fixed.
3. This system will encourage the process of job evaluation. It will also help in setting up an
ideal job evaluation, which will have transparency, and the standards fixing would be
more realistic and achievable.
4. Such a system would be well defined and uniform. It will be apply to all the levels of the
organization as a general system.
5. The system would be simple and flexible so that every worker/recipient would be able to
compute his own compensation receivable.
6. Such system would be easy to implement, so that it would not penalize the workers for
the reasons beyond their control and would not result in exploitation of workers.
7. It will raise the morale, efficiency and cooperation among the workers. It, being just and
fair would provide satisfaction to the workers.
8. Such system would help management in complying with the various labor acts.

THEORITICAL PRESPECTIVES
A) INTRODUCTION:
A basic limitation of the traditional financial statements comprising the balance sheet and
profit and loss account is that they do not give all the information regarding the financial
operation of a firm much can be learnt about a firm from a careful study of financial statements.
The analysis of financial statements is, thus, an important aid to financial analysis.
Ratio analysis:
Ratio analysis is a widely used tool of financial analysis. It is defined as the systematic
use of ratio to interpret the financial statements so that the strengths and weakness of a firm as
well as its historical performance and current financial condition can be determined.
Basis of comparison:
Ratios enable to draw conclusions regarding financial operations. The use of ratios, as a
tool of financial analysis, involves their comparison for a single ratio, like obsolete figures. Four
types of comparison involved.
Trend Ratio:
They involved a comparison of ratios of a firm over time, i.e. present ratios are compared
with post ratios for the same firm. This indicates the direction of change in the performance
improvement.
3
It involves comparison of the ratios of a firm with those of others in the same line of
business.
Ratios can be classified into four broad groups depending upon the particular purpose.
1) Liquidity ratios.
2) Leverage ratios/ capital structure
3) Profitability ratios.
4) Activity ratios.
Liquidity ratio: The ability of a firm to meet current/ short term obligations and reflect the
short-term financial strength/ solvency of a firm. These also measure the financial position of the
concern from long term as well as short-term solvency.
Net working capital: Net working capital represents the excess of current assets over current
liabilities. An enterprise should have the sufficient NWC in order to be able to meet the claims of
the creditors and meeting the day-to-day needs of business. The greater the amount of NWC, the
greater the liquidity of the firm.
1. Current ratio:
4
A current ratio may have different meanings depending on the point of view of an
analyst. It has a liquidating meaning - the ability to make all necessary payments today - which
gives a measure of protection or cushion for lenders. But, lenders are not interested in receiving
inventory in lieu of their claims, and they may look at the ratio as an indication that the firm is
able to generate funds to make all needed payments in the future; thus, the ratio indicates
whether the firm is likely to be a going concern. But, to infer such a meaning, the ratio cannot be
looked upon as a single statistic, and it is necessary to analyze the degree of liquidity of the
Current Assets
Current Ratio = -------------------------------
Current Liabilities
2.Cash ratio:
3
Since cash is the most liquid asset, a financial analyst may examine cash ratio and
its equivalent to current liabilities. Trade investment or marketable securities are equivalent of
cash. Therefore, they may be included in the computation of cash ratio.
3. QUICK RATIO:
The quick ratio is a very stringent measure of solvency. When compared to the
current ratio, it may reveal the extent to which the firm is dependent on selling its inventory to
meet current obligations. Whether or not this is a problem obviously depends on how liquid (i.e.
sealable) inventory is, and thus, an additional analysis is always necessary. In fact, this measure
is too stringent and narrow to allow meaningful implications about the firm's future. But, a
comparison over time may bring to light a deterioration of liquidity foretelling oncoming
insolvency, and therefore, it must never be overlooked.

The total assets turnover ratio measures the use of all assets in terms of sales, by
comparing sales with net total assets. This interactive tutorial walks you through the calculations
as well as where on the financial statements to find the numbers.

fixed assets ratio means inefficient utilization or obsolescence of fixed assets, which may be
caused by excess capacity or interruptions in the supply of raw materials. The sales to fixed
assets ratio is included in the financial statement ratio analysis spreadsheets highlighted in the
left column, which provide formulas, definitions, calculation, charts and explanations of each
ratio. The sales to fixed assets ratio is listed in our sales ratios.

8. EQUITY RATIO:
3
The equity ratio is a financial ratio indicating the relative proportion of equity to
all used to finance a company's assets. The two components are often taken from the firm's
balance sheet or statement of financial position (so-called book value), but the ratio may also be
calculated using market values for both, if the company's equities are publicly traded. The equity
ratio is especially in Central Europe a very common financial ratio while in the US the debt to
equity ratio is more often used in financial (research) reports.
Equity
Equity ratio = ------------------------------
Total assets
Gross profit ratio (GP ratio) is the ratio of gross profit to net sales expressed as a
percentage. It expresses the relationship between gross profit and sales. The basic components of
the calculation of gross profit ratio are gross profit and net sales. A net sale means that sale
minus sales returns. Gross profit would be the difference between net sales and cost of goods
sold. Cost of goods sold in the case of a trading concern would be equal to opening stock plus
purchases, minus closing stock plus all direct expenses relating to purchases. In the case of
manufacturing concern, it would be equal to the sum of the cost of raw materials, wages, direct
expenses and all manufacturing expenses. In other words, generally the expenses charged to
profit and loss account or operating expenses are excluded from the calculation of cost of goods
sold.

It is the ratio of net profit to share holder's investment. It is the relationship between
net profit (after interest and tax) and share holder's/proprietor's fund. This ratio establishes the
profitability from the share holders' point of view. The ratio is generally calculated in percentage.
The two basic components of this ratio are net profits and shareholder's funds. Shareholder's

13. RETURN ON CAPITAL EMPLOYED:
The return on capital employed (ROCE) ratio, expressed as a percentage, complements
the return on equity (ROE) ratio by adding a company's debt liabilities, or funded debt, to equity to
reflect a company's total "capital employed". This measure narrows the focus to gain a better
understanding of a company's ability to generate returns from its available capital base. By comparing net
income to the sum of a company's debt and equity capital, investors can get a clear picture of how the use
of leverage impacts a company's profitability. Financial analysts consider the ROCE measurement to be a
more comprehensive profitability indicator because it gauges management's ability to generate earnings
from a company's total pool of capital.

reporting term, because the number of shares outstanding can change over time. However, data
sources sometimes simplify the calculation by using the number of shares outstanding at the end
oftheperiod.
