ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

PREFACE
This MBA curriculum has been architecture with the view of enabling the students to have an opportunity of bringing their theoretical knowledge to practice. The concepts reinforce in the classroom would be better expose if it could be actually observe being practiced complying with this objective the summer training is designed to develop the students skills in analyzing and interpreting practical problems through the application of theoretical concepts and techniques of management. RSWM LTD. (A unit of LNJ Group), Banswara is known for its excellent survival from past 50 years. To keep this organization evergreen was not so easy, with many whirlpools also company proved the theory of survival of fittest. To know this company, I got a very good opportunity through summer training, exploring a big scale & vibrant company is not so easy but I tried my level best to grab all the opportunities to know this industry with the help of its employees who shared their experiences with me. Banswara unit explains a lot of sagas related to its production, with the production the value of workforce also. Any company is called as an organization, but a real organization is really hard to organize efficiently & effectively. The power of machines or capital are not only enough for organization to run, but thousand minds of different taste and culture, molded in one pot and to walk with so many diversity at one place and show them single path of goal and productivity is really not very easy job. As we say the world is changing, and to keep that same workforce changing with the environment is a real challenge for any company. To train & manage workforce with a future goal is really very much planned and effectively organized than only it is possible to stand in market where global scenario is flat and highly competitive and with full of substitutes. The financial sector is always the core of an economys growth. The subject matter of financial management has been changing at a rapid pace. About three decades ago, the scope of financial management was circumscribed to the raising of funds whenever needed., and little significance was attached to the financial decision making and problem solving. The modern thinking in the financial management gives greater importance to the management decision making and problem solving.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

INDIAN TEXTILE INDUSTRY


The Indian Textile sector has its roots going back several thousand years. Over the last 50 years the textile industry is one of the largest in the world with a massive raw material and textile-manufacturing base. Textile accounts for 14% of Indias industrial production and around 30% of its export earnings. Around 35 million people are directly employed in the textile manufacturing activities. The textile policy of 2000 aims at achieving the target of textile and apparel exports of US $ 25 billion by 2010 of which the share of garments will be US $ 25 billion. The main markets for Indian Textile and apparels are USA, UAE, UK, Germany, France, Italy, Russia, Canada, Bangladesh and Japan. At present India has the second largest spinning capacity and ranks among the worlds largest producers of cotton, cotton yarn, and manmade fibers and filament yarns; it also has a large domestic, fabric supply. There has been a structural shift taking place in the global textiles industry with capacities moving from high cost developed economies to the developing countries. The end of the quota restrictions with the dismantling of Multi fiber agreement in 2005 further accentuated this trend. This has added further growth opportunities for cost efficient Indian Players who have the scale and produce quality products. Because of the lifting up of the import restrictions of the multi-fiber arrangement (MFA) since 1st January, 2005 under the world Trade Organization (WTO) Agreement on textile and clothing, the market has become competitive on closer look however; it sounds an opportunity because better material will be possible with the traditional inputs so far available with the Indian Market. There will be opportunities as well as challenges for the Indian textile industry in the post-mfa era. But India has natural advantages, which can be capitalized on strong raw material base-cotton, man-made fibers, jute silk, large production capacity (spinning-21% of world capacity and weaving-33% of world capacity.) The industry expects investment of Rs. 140000 crore in this sector in the post-MFA phase. A vision 2010 for textile formulated by the government after intensive interaction with the industry and export promotions councils to capitalize on the upbeat mood aims to increase Indias share in world textile trade from the current 4% to 8% by 2010 and to achieve export value of US $ 50 billion by 2010. Vision 2010 for textiles envisages growth in Indian textile economy from the current US $ 37 billion to $ 85 billion by 2010; creation of 12 million new jobs in the textile sector; and modernization and consolidation for creating a globally competitive textile industry. The future of textile industry in India will be amazing if we continuously improve over quality and give proper attention towards research and development and we can take lead of the world textile market. We have to accept the fact that no organization is too large or too powerful to be unsinkable. In a rapidly changing business environment companies which do not change disappear without a trace. Change and adaption is must for growth and prosperity. The fierce competition in the market realities dictate: Perform or parish. Thus realizing the need of the hour various groups and individual shifted their focus of business rather than continuing in the same manner. One amongst them was Shri Laxmi Niwas Jhunjhunwala the founder of LNJ Bhilwara Group.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

SWOT ANALYSIS
STRENGTH : Demand of blended yarn will increase as the production of cotton is (limited attraction of PV is replacing cotton, great share in exports one of the biggest earners). Won SRTEPC highest export award for PV yarn exports it was also accorded golden trading house status. Experienced & enthusiastic marketing team. Strong sales depots & marketing offices at Mumbai, Delhi, Bhilwara, Ludhiana, Ahemadabad and Indore. Brand Reputation Global Marketing LNJ Bhilwara group is famous in textiles in all over the world. Well-equipped R&D SQC lab. Modern machinery with latest techniques. Not depended for power & water RSWM Banswara has its own power generation plant & presently there are about 20000 surplus units of power is available. The daily requirement of power for weaving project is only 93111 units per day. Water is also available in plenty at companys own campus & presently company has adequate water storage capacity. Wide product range & flexibility in production according to requirement of market. RSWM Banswara manufacturers various type of yarn of different counts & blends. All the units are connected through V-SAT Gulabpura, Mumbai, Delhi, and Indore & Rishabdev. The company has a great share in exports, one of the biggest earners. Quality conscious approach as per ISO product & TQM gulabpura unit was the first India composite textile unit to be certified with ISO 9002 1st September 1993, ISO certificate is necessary to penetrate in the export market specially in the European in US market. The most important thing is that they have good and healthy working atmosphere in company and they provide ample no. of opportunities for everyone to satisfy their job desire. Better packaging, carriage and transportation system with all modern equipments and good after sales services. Regular seminars and meeting are conducted in entire department in order to find their loopholes and solution for the same.

WEAKNESS :26

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Banswara is not connected through railway line & condition of roads is also poor so there is an infrastructure problem. Skill labor is not available at Banswara and Purchase Raw Material from one type of organization only and bigger process cycle causes higher stock of raw materials. Locations of depots (Consuming Centers) are far away from factory. Hence transportation cost and time duration is increases in inventories. Many process steps and process are more sensitive to normal process variations and small error causes the big amount of wastage of material. Being highly labor intensive unit, HR department is always under pressure and many times fails to meet expectations of various departments and employees.

OPPORTUNITIES : After starting weaving project, Rajasthan spinning & weaving mills Ltd. Banswara may further go for forward integration in garments sector, as people in domestic market are gradually moving towards ready-made garments. To develop & improve working environment of processing by using Eco-Friendly methods. The company can rush into retail business and support from government like TUFF Schemes i.e. 5% interest rebates to enhance investment in the textile industry. Strategic alliances: Tie-ups with global manufacturers & brands for technology & market. Tilt towards ready-made. India can become a major player in the textile export market at a global market at a global level given the declining share of south-east Asian countries in this niche market & rising wages in ASEAN region, wiping out their competitive edge. RSWM may be innovating new product using different types of yarn & fiber like lyre & tennel. Increased export demand is expected from planning out of capacities in developed world. Efficiency can increase with the help of IT & ERP. Post-MFA as on January-1, 2005, the world trade in textile & clothing will be fully liberalized. It can capture a large market share if it provides quality product as reasonable price. Market share of India is world trade of textile is only 2.8% therefore, another advantage that India could have is that for countries which are not the member of WTO, imposing countries will have obligation to proceed with removal of quota restriction. This is especially important with respect to China, Taiwan, who accounts for 32% of world trade in textile, but are still not a member of WTO.

27

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

THREATS : Today textile industry is planning through in unpredicted recession. The reason for that is supply is more than demand. Cheap imports textiles from China, that is increasing free trade & competition. Removal of quotas after 2005 increasing more quality awareness i.e. competition in quality. Changing trend in textile Indus try, changing requirement as people now preferring ready-made garments. Polyester Viscose is a substitute of cotton & is made from wood pulp & its supply is also limited. Government policies are the main hurdles of divisions performance. Finally, On the basis of preliminary discussions and referring to document Projects were prepared and final reports were analyzed through ratio analysis. Definitive views about the entire gamut of working capital management were formed. The various issues connected with working capital management were understood.

Working Capital is wider concept and it requires more time for learning each and every aspect of it. Hence there was time constraint too. Unfamiliarity with culture and department of the company was also becoming a hurdle for producing efficient output for trainee. Trainee had less time for practicing regarding the learning of ERP at the time of training.

INTRODUCTON OF WORKING CAPITAL

34

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

There are two concepts of working capital

Gross Working Capital Net Working Capital

Gross Working Capital : - Simply called as working capital, refers to the firms investment in current
assets. Current assets are the assets which can be converted into cash within an accounting year (or operating cycle) and include cash. Short-term securities, debtors, bills receivables and stock (Inventory).

Net Working Capital : - It refers to the difference between current assets and current liabilities. Current
liabilities are those claims of outsiders, which are expected to mature to payment within an accounting year and include creditors, bills payable and outstanding expenses. Net working capital can be positive and negative. A positive working capital will arise when current assets excess current liabilities and vice versa. The concept of working capital gross and net are not exclusive, rather they have equal significance from management view point.

Focusing on Management of Current Assets


The gross working capital concepts focuses attention on two aspects of current assets management: (A) How to optimize investment in current assets? (B) How should current assets be financed? The considered of the level of investment in current assets should avoid to danger points excessive and inadequate investment in current assets. Investment in current assets should be just adequate, not more than less, to needs of the business firm. Excessive investment in current assets should be avoided because it impairs firms profitability, as idle investment earns nothing. On the other hand, inadequate amount of working capital can threaten the solvency of the firm because of its inability to meet its current obligations. It should be realizing that the working capital needs of the firm might be fluctuating with changing business activity. This may cause excess or shortage of working capital frequently. The management should be too prompt to initiate an action and current imbalances. Another aspect of the gross working capital points in the need of arranging funds to finance current assets. Whenever needs for working capital arise due to do the increasing level of business activity or for any other reason, arrangement should be made quickly. Similarly, if suddenly some surplus fund arises, then they should 35

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

not be allowed to remain idle, but should be invested in short term securities. Thus financial manager should have knowledge of source of working capital fund as well as investment avenues where idle fund may be temporarily invested.

Focusing on Liquidity Management


Net working capital, begin the difference between current assets and current liabilities, is a qualitative concept. It (A) indicates the liquidity position of the firm and (B) Suggest the extent to which working capital needs may be finance by permanent sources of funds. Current assets should be sufficiently in excess of current liabilities to constitute a margin or buffer to maturing obligations within the ordinary operation cycle of a business. In order to protect their interest, short-term creditors always like a company to maintain current assets at a higher level than current liabilities. However, the quality of current assets should be considered in determinate the level of current assets vice-versa current liabilities. A weak liquidity position poses a threat to solvency of the company and makes it unsafe and unsound. A negative working capital means a negative liquidity, and may prove to be harmful for the company. Excessive liquidity is also bad. It may be due to mismanagement of current assets therefore, prompt and timely action should be taken by management to improve and current the imbalance in the liquidity position of the firm. Net working capital concept also covers the question of judicious mix of long-term and short-term funds for financing current assets. For every firm, there is a minimum amount of net working capital, which is permanent. Therefore, a portion of the working capital should be financed with permanent sources of funds such as owners capital, debentures, long-term debts, preference capital or retained earnings. Management must, therefore decide the extent to which current assets should be financed with equity capital or borrowed capital. In summary, it may be emphasized that both gross and net concepts of working capital are equally important for the efficient management of working capital. There is no precious way to determine the exact amount of gross, or net, working capital for any firm. The data and problems of each company should be analyzed to determine the amount of working capital. There is no special rule as to how current assets should be financed.

WORKING CAPITAL AND MANAGEMENT

37

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Working capital is concerned with management of current asset. It is an important and integral part of financial management as short term survival is prerequisite for long term success. The divisional management of RSWM Ltd. manages the working capital within the board frame work laid by and with consultation of Corporation Finance Division (CFD). Decision regarding the utilization of the current assets is made in accordance with the policy of company. Working capital management or short term financial management is concerned with decision relating to current assets and current liabilities. WCM = Current Assets (CA) Current Liabilities (CL) The key difference between long-term finance management and short-term financial management is in term of timing cash. While long- term financial decision like buying capital equipments or issuing debentures involves cash flows over extended period of time i.e. more than one to five years or even more while short term financial decision typically involve cash flows within a year or within the operating cycle of the firm. WCM is management for the short- term which is critical to the firm. Managers spent about 70% in managing for the short- term capital. The operating cycle can be said to be at eh heart of the need for working capital.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

The management of the finances of a business / organization is done in order to achieve financial objective. Taking a commercial business as the most common organizational structure, the key objectives of financial management would be to: Create wealth for business Generate cash and Provide an adequate return on investments bearing in mind the risks that the business is taking and the resources invested. There are three key elements to the process of financial management:

FINANCIAL PLANNING :Management need to ensure that enough funding is available at the right time to meet the needs of the business. In short term, funding may be needed to invest in equipment and stocks, pay employees and fund sales made on credit. In the medium and long term, funding may be required for significant additions to the productive capacity of the business or to make acquisitions.

FINANCIAL CONTROL :Financial control is a critically important activity to help the business ensure that the business is meeting its objectives.

FINANCIAL DECISION-MAKING :A key financing decision is whether profits earned by the business should be retained rather than distributed to shareholders via dividends. If dividends are too high, the business may be starved of funding to reinvest in growing revenues and profits further. 39

ISSUES & FACTORS INFLUENCING FOR WORKING CAPITAL

41

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ISSUES IN WORKING CAPITAL


Working Capital refers to the administration of all components of working capital-cash, marketable securities, debtors (receivable) and stock (inventories) and creditors (payables). The financial manager must determine levels and composition of current assets. He must that right sources are trapped to finance current assets, and that current liabilities are paid in time. There are many aspects of working capital management, which make it an important function of the financial manager.

Time :- working capital management requires much of the financial manager time.

Investment :- working capital represents a large portion of the total investment in assets.

Critically :- working capital management has great significance for all firms but it is very critical for small
firms.

Growth :- the need for working capital is directly related to the firms growth.

42

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

FACTORS INFLUENCING WORKING CAPITAL


There is not set of rules or formula to determine the working capital requirement of the firms. Therefore, an analysis of relevant factor should be made in order to determine total investment in working capital. The main factors are :1. Nature of Enterprise :The nature and the working capital requirements of an enterprise are interlinked. While a manufacturing industry has a long cycle of operation of the working capital, the same would be short in an enterprise involved in providing services. The amount required also varies as per the nature; an enterprise involved in production would require more working capital than a service sector enterprise. RSWM is a manufacturing organization, because of which it requires lot of funds to be blocked in raw materials for the production of Yarn. The cycle of operations at RSWM is quite long and thus it needs large amount of working capital. 48% of total funds are invested in raw materials.

2. Manufacturing/Production Policy :Each enterprise in the manufacturing sector has its own production policy, some follow the policy of uniform production even if the demand varies from time to time, and others may follow the principle of 'demand-based production' in which production is based on the demand during that particular phase of time. Accordingly, the working capital requirements vary for both of them. RSWM follows continuous production policy. The plants are operated 24 hours in different shifts. Demand factor is not considered here as Yarn is sold by its marketing department. As the production continues for 24 hours, the investment in raw material inventories is very high

43

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

as interruption in production causes increase in cost of production because of high set up cost of plants even need of raw material for power plant is always in demand for the same.

3. Operations :The requirement of working capital fluctuates for seasonal business. The working capital needs of such businesses may increase considerably during the busy season and decrease during the slack season. Ice creams and cold drinks have a great demand during summers, while in winters the sales are negligible. As RSWM has policy of continuous production, it does not have to consider seasonal factors for its working capital requirements. Its working capital does not vary with seasons. 4. Market Condition :If there is high competition in the chosen product category, then one shall need to offer sops like credit, immediate delivery of goods etc. for which the working capital requirement will be high. Otherwise, if there is no competition or less competition in the market then the working capital requirements will be low. RSWM have to depend on market conditions as Polyester, Viscose and Cotton are always considered essential for textile and for various manufacturing unit. So there is not much competition in this industry for example: - Grasim Ind. has the monopoly for Viscose in the whole industry and Reliance has the monopoly for Polyester. 5. Availability of Raw Material :If raw material is readily available then one need not maintain a large stock of the same, thereby reducing the working capital investment in raw material stock. On the other hand, if raw material is not readily available then a large inventory/stock needs to be maintained, thereby calling for substantial investment in the same raw materials are very important aspect for arriving at working capital requirements at RSWM because of two reasons mainly. First RSWM follows continues production policy so the raw materials are used in very large quantum and second the raw materials like Cotton, Polyester (Reliance), Viscose (Grasim) for manufacturing 44

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

of Yarn. These raw materials are available in the lead time of maximum 4 days in each case thereby large inventory stock is not needed to maintain but the market prices are very much fluctuating therefore when the prices are favorable then raw material is purchased in adequate quantity.

6. Growth and Expansion :Growth and expansion in the volume of business results is enhancement of working capital requirement. As business grows and expands, it needs a larger amount of working capital. Normally, the need for increased working capital funds precedes growth in business activities. RSWM has grown incredibly since its inception. Because of high growth it needs large amount of working capital as the operations are handled at very large scale. RSWM has expanded its operations through investing in many other important projects which compel them to invest immensely in working capital. 7. Price Level Changes :Generally, rising price level requires a higher investment in the working capital. With increasing prices, the same level of current assets needs enhanced investment. The price level changes in raw materials hit very hard to RSWM as the major investments are being done in raw materials. Most of the materials are imported for outside India which involves risk of exchange rate fluctuations thus it needs high amount of working capital.

8. Manufacturing Cycle :The manufacturing cycle starts with the purchase of raw material and is completed with the production of finished goods. If the manufacturing cycle involves a longer period, the need for working capital would be more. At times, business needs to estimate the requirement of working capital. Manufacturing cycle affects a lot on working capital requirements at RSWM as the cycle takes lot of time to convert raw material into finished goods. It takes around 7 to 8 days to complete one process of converting raw material into final product. Therefore it is very necessary for RSWM to invest sufficient amount in working capital. At times, business needs to estimate the requirement of working capital in advance for proper control and management. The factors discussed above influence the quantum of working capital in the business. The 45

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

assessment of working capital requirement is made keeping these factors in view. Each constituent of working capital retains its form for a certain period and that holding period is determined by the factors discussed above.

9. Technology :In Yarn Division, the technology used for production process is labor intensive in the manufacturing of yarn which also involves heavy machinery due to which requirement if working capital is high.

10. Credit Policy :The credit policy of the firm affects working capital by influencing the level of the book debts. The RSWM division allows different credit periods to its customers depending on the type of yarn and from which depo it is purchased i.e. for SYNTHETIC YARN it is as follows:- a) Bhilwara- 7 days b) Ludhiana- 15 days c) except Bhilwara and Ludhiana- 10 days and for COTTON YARN it is 20 days. If the payment is not made, the high rate of interest is charged i.e. around 18 %. But for special customer they provide credit of around 3 months too. The company for the improvement of working capital ratio also allows the cash discount of 1% if the payment is received in advance or the cheque is deposited in bank on the next day of dispatch.

11. Banking Facility :The RSWM Division mainly uses the banking facility of RTGS i.e. Real Time Gross Settlement for the payment of suppliers. RSWM Ltd. has major account and deals its transaction with State Bank of Bikaner and Jaipur and Punjab National Bank.

12. Business Fluctuation :The Operating Efficiency of the firm relates to the optimum utilization of resources at minimum costs. Better utilization of resources improves profitability and thus helps in releasing the pressure on working capital.

ASSESMENT FOR THE SOURCES AND APPLICATION FOR WORKING CAPITAL

47

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

The assessment of the working capital in the RSWMs unit is done by the CFD with the consultation with the management staff of the Co. and on the basis of the Co.s previous year experience. This helps to maintain efficiently fund for operation of the organization. There are main four components which plays vital role for it which are as follows : INVENTORY RECIEVABLE, (UGAI), (DEBTORS) CASH MANAGEMENT PAYABLES, (VENDORS), (CREDITORS)

INVENTORY
Inventory includes all types of stocks. For effective working capital management, inventory needs to be managed effectively. The level of inventory should be such that the total cost of ordering and holding inventory is the least. Simultaneously, stock out costs should also be minimized. Business, therefore, should fix the minimum safety stock level, re-order level and ordering quantity so that the inventory cost is reduced and its management becomes efficient. Following are the types of inventory, which the company generally holds. 1

Raw Material :-

A raw material is the goods, which are required to produce the product of the firm. Raw materials are the basic input of the production which is converted into finished goods after manufacturing process. 2 Goods in Production Process :These are the goods or inventories, which are under the production process, in other words we can say goods in process or semi finished goods. They represent the products that need more work before they become finished goods for sale. 48

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Finished Goods :Finished goods inventory are those which are completely manufactured and ready for sale. Stock of raw material or work in progress facilitates production, while stock of finished goods is required for smooth marketing operations.

4 Stock Of Stores Materials :Stock of store materials includes spare and tools. Spares means the parts of the machinery and tools are equipment, which are provided to the employees to the firm. These materials do not directly enter into production but they are essential for production process.

NEEDS FOR HOLDING INVENTORY :Mainly there are two motives of holding inventories. 1.

Transaction motive :A transaction motive emphasizes the need to maintain inventories to facilitate smooth production operation

2.

Precautionary motive :Precautionary motive necessitates holding of inventories to guard against the risk of unpredictable changes in demand and supplies forces and other factors.

49

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

TECHNIQUES OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT :1. ABC ANALYSIS : - In ABC analysis, the entire goods in stores are divided into three categories A,
B, and C. it is the most effective way of the inventory management. Most of the firms are adopting this technique. That is why ABC is also known as ALWAYS BETTER CONTROL. How the goods are divided into three categories is mentioned below: A category goods : - A category goods are high value goods, which incurred maximum cost of the total inventory cost. B category goods :- B category goods are those, which costs between Rs.10,000/- to Rs.50,000/C category goods :- C category goods involves goods which costs below Rs.10,000/2. FSN ANALYSIS :- In FSN technique all goods are categorizes into three categories. Fast moving goods, slow moving goods and non moving goods. The rules of the FSN analysis may vary according to companys norms. The norms of FSN analysis at RSWM are mentioned below. Fast Moving Goods :- Fast moving goods are those, which are used within three months. Slow Moving Goods :- Slow moving goods are those, which are used between three to six months. Non Moving Goods :- Non moving goods are those, which are used since in above six months

FUND FLOW STATEMENT

51

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Meaning of Fund :Funds may means of changes in financial resources, arising from changes in working capital items and from financing and investing activities of the enterprise, which may only involve non - current items.

Fund Flow Statement :The statement of changes in financial position, prepared to determine only the sources and uses of working capital between dates of two balance sheets, is known as the funds flow statement. As historical analysis, the statement of changes in working capital reveals to management the way in which working capital was obtained. With this insight, management can prepare the estimates of the working capital flows. A statement reporting the changes in working capital is useful in addition to the financial statements. A projected statement of changes in working capital is immensely useful in the firms long-range planning. The working capital flow of fund arises when the net effect of a transaction is to increase or decrease the amount of working capital. The concept of working capital flow may be summarized as follows: The net working capital increases or decreases when a transaction involves a current account and a noncurrent account. The net working capital remains unaffected when a transaction involves only current accounts. The net working capital remains unaffected when a transaction involves only non-current accounts.

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :From the working capital statement comparison for the year ended on 31 st March, 2006 and 31st March, 2007 given above some of the fact revealed are as under. The current assets decrease in the latter year by Rs. 344.47 Lacs. The current liabilities decrease in the latter year by Rs. 1018.31 Lacs.

The reasons behind the decrease in current assets are as follows :-

Decrease in debtors due to high competition in the market. Though company is giving more credit to its customer as per needs of its segment through its various units but efficient credit policy has made payments faster. Hence it caused a less application of funds for RSWM working capital.

59

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Increase in inventory of Rs.263.20 Lacs is to meet the demand and requirements of its customers and also the increased capacity of various units respectively for RSWM.

Decrease in Cash and bank balance was due to the fund used for expansion and renovation of various units and due to such reasons cash balance decreased and it was used more by Rs. 61.94 Lacs. Hence RSWM had to made more availability of fund for such application occurred in working capital. Decrease in Export Incentive Receivable by Rs. 643.99 Lacs due to decline in government schemes of DEPB, FMS, etc. on the export sales.

The reasons for the decrease in current liabilities are given as.

Increase in creditors for RSWM are due to expansion of various plants or units and hence requirement of such plants or units increased in terms of raw materials and various other services. Hence to fulfill such needs, more materials were purchased and creditors also provided good deal by giving more credit days for making better relations with RSWM units respectively. Therefore amount increased by Rs 56.71 Lacs and also become source of fund for working capital.

60

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

To make deal final and for guarantee purpose advance are taken from customers by various units of RSWM. Such advance also generate source of fund for working capital and it provides more liquidity to company needs of short term fund, Banswara unit of RSWM has taken more advance of Rs. 177.19 Lacs in latter year.

RSWM has taken working capital loans from banks. Such funds work as sources for working capital and they are one kind of short term loans. But this year such loan decreased by Rs. 1155.72 Lacs as they were paid off and in spite of being source they became as more application of fund for working capital.

Due to all the above affect the net working capital increased by Rs. 673.84 Lacs.

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :From the working capital statement comparison for the year ended on 31 st March, 2007 and 31st March, 2008 given above some of the facts revealed are as under. The current assets increase in the latter year by Rs. 3898.68 Lacs.

62

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

The current liabilities increase in the latter year by Rs. 912.42 Lacs.

The reasons behind the increase in current assets are as follows :-

Decrease in inventory by Rs. 381.40 Lacs is may be due to more risk taking capacity of the firm in terms of investing in raw materials.

Increase in debtors due to sluggishness in demand of the product at all levels of the system such as decrease in demand of cotton lead to decrease in demand of yarn at the manufacturing level leads to increase in debtors to avoid more storage of goods in the store by the amount Rs. 508.95 Lacs.

Increase in Inter unit Balances i.e. RSWMs Banswara Unit receive funds from the Head Office for the annual working requirement in the unit which has proved as the source of working capital for the company and has affected the companys working capital by Rs. 3941.94 Lacs.

63

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

The reasons for increase in current liabilities are as follows :-

Decrease in creditors is due to premature payment done by organization to increase their business liquidity and to sustain in the recession era which a good manager of an organization do in order to make their suppliers sustain in the market so as they can also sustain and grow the RSWMs diversified business portfolio by Rs. 69.5 Lacs.

RSWM also accepted more amounts of money as working capital loans from banks as a short term loans for its various units. Such loans are always useful for any business as the generate sources of fund at very less expense. Hence the generation was of Rs. 1025.15 Lacs more in latter year.

Due to all above affect the net working capital increased by Rs. 2986.26 Lacs.

Currently the ratio is of 1.73:1 and which has reduced from previous year and has reached below min. level which is a matter of concern.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :It can be analyzed from above chart that net profit had a decline trend till the year 2008-09 where it has been at its lowest point of -0.55% which was due to hike in the prices of fuel and raw materials and recession era in the global market. But the company then improved its performance and rose its profits up to 13.74% in the year 2010-11 which was due to high demand of RSWM products in market and efficient management of working capital requirements.

FIXED ASSETS TURNOVER RATIO :It shows the relationship between the fixed assets and the net sales. It gives the amount of net sales in rupee of fixed assets. Mathematically it is given as

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :It can be seen from the figures that management of RSWM has tried to improve every year for the better usage of fixed assets. It can be seen that the graph have shown upward sign only, no downfall have been recorded in last five years except a small deflection in the year 2008-09. Hence it shows the efficiency of finance department of RSWM. Currently the ratio is of 4.39:1 and in last five years graph is on up trend for Banswara Unit.

CASH RETURN ON ASSETS RATIO :It is quite similar to the above ratio. The only change is that here the cash from the operating activities are compared with the total assets of organization. The effectiveness is measurement of cash management compares to the total assets of the company. Here cash from operating activities is net profit + deprecation. Mathematically it is given as

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :Graphs of Cash return on assets ratio of RSWM have steeply fallen down in the financial year 2008 09 and 2010-11. It can be seen that it has gone down from 1.85 to 1.68 and there is constant downfall no sign of improvement is seen. It may due to inefficiency of growth business performance as per their investment. It should be in increasing trend and for this total assets should be increased in proportion with cash from operating activities.

RETURN ON EQUITY (%) :The return on equity shows the amount of net profit with respect to the net worth of the company. Here net worth contains the total amount of share holders fund i.e. equity share capital + reserves and surplus. This ratio helps in comparing the performance of the company for two or more financial year and also shows strength of the company in returns to its share holder. Mathematically it is give as.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :Well it can be seen that RSWMs performance has fallen down in the period of 2006-07 to 2008-09. The reasons are changes in government policies, increase in various cost of raw materials, transportation, fuel cost etc. for various units. Even market conditions have affected the business of RSWM too, as growth business requires heavy capital investments and then to they are not able to perform well due to economy crisis. Though RSWMs didnt had good performance in those last three financial years but on the basis of good support and faith of share holders and ability of stability to survive in worse to worse conditions with the support of HEAD OFFICE the company managed well to increase the ratio from -5.25% to 77.86% in the past five years which shows the efficiency of the departments.

RETURN ON INVESTMENTS (%) :The return on investment shows the amount of net profit earned by the company with respect to total amount invested as assets. It shows the profitability of the company and measures effectiveness of decision making of the finance manager and also shows stability of the company. It is also known as ROACE.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :It is seen that profits of RSWM have decreased in the years 2007-08 and 2008-09. The reasons are highly competitive market with high cost of materials, labor, transport etc. along with unfavorable government policies, poor condition of market and economy has also played a vital role for such poor performance. Reduction in profit margin of RSWMs so that it can sale its product at more cheaper and competitive rate in market from others to sustain its customers. But the condition now improved a lot and RSWM has managed to bring up its profits by 122.94% from the previous years profit due to improved market condition, low prices of raw material, efficiency to top management and all other coordinating departments etc.

WORKING CAPITAL TURNOVER RATIO :This ratio indicates the extent of working capital turned over in achieving sales of the firm. It also shows how efficiently firm or finance manager of a company is using capital or resources effectively for meeting the requirement of working capital.

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :From the above figures and graph it can be said that RSWMs various units finance managers and their departments have shown their efficiency and their work from time to time, though working capital turnover ratio graph has shown fluctuating figures from year to year. It shows how much concern of finance department has for working capital. They have managed things were effectively for every unit. RSWM has used working capital as per their needs and almost accurate estimation and never blocked the fund unnecessarily. They have 90

never gone below 2:1 ratio up till date from last 5 years. Hence it shows their strength and stability for usage and allocation of funds for its diversified business portfolio.

DEBTORS COLLECTION PERIOD :Debtors collection period indicates days required to collect amount of credit sales from debtors. This represents the number of days; the funds are blocked in debtors for a firm sells goods for cash and credit. Credit is used as a marketing tool by a number of companies. So a firm must manage its credit policy well.

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :RSWMs has extended its collection period more in terms of days as per the need of market in recent trends. From above it can be seen that as the year passed days also increased and RSWMs needs of working capital also increased due to blocking money for around 27 days from 23 days previously, then to they have very low bad debts. Finance & Accounts department has worked very crucially on the extension of debtors collection 91

period along with marketing department. Hence the application of funds for working capital is mainly done on this part along with inventories. The average collection period or UGAI period is of 30 days given by RSWMs various units to its premium and major customers. (Note : - As the figure of credit sales was not available, it has been assumed here that all the sales are credit sales.)

CREDITORS DEFERRAL PERIOD :Creditors deferral period indicates the duration for which the suppliers provide credit facility. This duration should be long enough so that company can convert the raw material into finished goods and sell it in the market. Because the main source of revenue for any organization is its sales. Purchase is equal to Raw Material Consumption + Closing Stock of Raw Material-Opening Stock of Raw Material. Hence the days are:-

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :The average deferral period of creditors is 2.5 days which represents its strong liquidity position to pay its obligations within 10 days for various units of RSWM. This ratio has gone down up till 3 days in 2008-09 year. In this year it is 5 days currently in 2010 - 11 which shows the creditability of RSWMs in market and its strong position financial wise. The fluctuation is due to changes in trends of market and creditors policy for giving credit and per agreement dead. Such credit from creditors works as a use full source of working capital 92

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

for RSWM and it reduce burden for that year. It also reflects the reputation of RSWMs various units holds in market as creditors provide more service by lending more days of credit to make more healthy terms and relation with RSWMs units for having business. (Note : - As the figure of credit purchase was not available, it has been assumed here that total purchases are credit purchase.)

INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO :The Inventory Turnover ratio indicates the movement of average stock holding of each item of material in relation of its consumption during accounting period. Average stock is equal to opening stock + closing stock divided by 2 for that year. Calculated days are as follows :-

Inventory Turnover Ratio =

ANALYSIS & INTERPRETATION :It can be said that RSWM on an average has inventory turnover within 75 days. RSWM has high intensive manufacturing units like synthetic yarn, cotton yarn, etc. which work 24 *7 for whole year. The raw material required for various products are fetched from domestic market which require min.5 days after giving order for procurement. They always try to minimize its days and always try to block its fund as less as it can be possible 93

and to minimize the application of funds for working capital. They work accordingly so that they never get shortfall of materials and do not suffer loss by shutting down plants or various units due to such reasons.

ESTIMATION FOR NEEDS OF WORKING CAPITAL

94

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

The most appropriate method of calculated the working capital needs of a firm is the concept of operating cycle. However, a number of other methods may be used to determine working capital needs in practice. We shall illustrate here all these approaches which have been successfully applied in practice.

Current assets holding period :To determine working capital requirements on the basis of average holding period of current assets and related them to costs based on the companys experience in the previous years. This method is essentially based on the operating cycle concept.

Ratio or Percentage of sales :It is a traditional and simple method of determining the level of working capital and its components. In this method working capital is determined on the basis of past experience. If over the years the relationship may be taken as a base for determining the working capital for future.

Ratio of fixed investment :To estimate working capital requirements as a percentage of fixed investment.

Regression analysis method :It is useful statistical technique applied for forecasting working capital relationship between sales and working capital and its various components in the past years. The method of least squares is used in this regard.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Working Capital Operating Cycle


The WC Cycle starts with the purchase of raw materials and ends with the realization of cash from the sale of finished products. It plays an important part in determining WC requirements: longer the period of this cycle, larger is the requirement of WC. Various phase involved in WC operating cycle are as follows: 1) Acquisition of resources: It companies of 2) Purchase of raw materials: Payment of raw material to raw-material suppliers after the credit period allowed by them. Manufacture of the product: 3) 4) Conversion of raw material to work in progress. Conversion of work in progress to finished goods.

Sale of Finished goods. Realization of cash from debtors after the credit period allowed to them.

Operating Cycle

Receivables + Cost

Raw Material + Cost

Finished Goods + Cost

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

1)

Accounts Payable period :- This is the period from the day of acquisition of raw material to the payment of raw materials. In other it is the credit period allowed to the organization by raw material suppliers.

2)

Cash Cycle :- The period from the day of payment for raw material purchased till the realization of cash against sales. Cash Cycle = WC Operating Cycle Accounts Payable Period

3)

Inventory Period :- The period is beginning from the day of receipt of raw materials in the factory till the day of dispatch of finished goods.

4)

Accounts Receivable Period :- The period beginning from day of dispatch of finished goods to the buyer and ending on the day of realization of cash against sales.

5)

Operating Cycle :- The time that elapses between the purchase of raw materials and the collection of cash for sales is referred to as operating cycle. Operating Cycle = Inventory Period + Accounts Receivable Period.

OPERATING CYCLE CONCEPTS


There are two concepts of operating cycle :1) 2) Gross operating cycle period Net operating period.

GROSS OPERATING CYCLE PERIOD :The successive segments of the operating cycle are :1) 2) 3) 4) Raw material storage period. Conversion period. Finished goods storage period. Average Collection period. The total duration of the entire segment mentioned above is known as gross operating period.

97

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

CASE - I In case the company sells its products for cash then the segment of average collection period will disappear from the gross operating cycle period and to that extent the total duration of the cycle gets reduced. CASE - II In case advance payments are to be made for procuring materials, the operating cycle period increases. NET OPERATING CYCLE PERIOD :When the average payment period of the company to its suppliers is deducted from the gross operating cycle period the resultant period is called net operating cycle period or simply operating cycle. It becomes obvious that the shorter the duration of operating cycle period, the faster will be the transformation of current assets into cash. The operating cycle approach is quite useful in : Managing Controlling and Forecasting working capital.

98

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

EVENTS OF OPERATING CYCLE


The operating cycle (working capital cycle) consists of the following event, which continues throughout the life of business. 1) 2) 3) 4) 5) Conversion of cash into raw materials. Conversion of raw materials into work-in-progress. Conversion of work-in-progress into finished stock. Conversion of finished stocks into accounts receivables through sale and Conversion of accounts receivables into cash.

The duration of the operating cycle for the purpose of estimating working capital is equal to the sum of the duration of each of above said events, less the credit period allowed by the suppliers. In the form of an equation, the operating cycle process can be expressed as follows :Operating cycle = R + W + F + D C Where, R = Raw material and stores storage period. W = Work-in-Progress period. F = Finished goods storage period. D = Debtors collection period C = Credit payment period. The various components of operating cycle may be calculated as :(1.) Raw Material (2.) Work-in Progress holding period (3.) Finished goods storage period (4.) Debtors collection period (5.) Credit payment period = = = = = Average stock of raw material Average cost of production per day Average W-I-P inventory Average cost of production per day Average stock of finished goods Average cost of goods sold per day Average book debts Average sales per day Average trade creditors Average purchase per day

ESTIMATION OF WORKING CAPITAL REQUIREMENT AT RSWM LTD. BANSWARA UNIT


Working capital requirement estimation is dealt with proper care and cautions. Working capital requirement fixation is done with respect RSWM various units like Banswara unit, Bhilwara unit, etc. Some important aspects of working capital like sales and debtors are considered here as these matters are to be taken care of by RSWM BANSWARA office itself. BANSWARA UNIT sends its working capital estimation to RSWMs office situated in Kharigram (Bhilwara) on quarterly basis. Then RSWMs office collects working capital estimations of its every unit and merges them and then provides funds to individual units. The main aspect of working capital in BANSWARA UNIT is its raw materials used in production of Grey Yarn like Synthetic Yarn and Cotton Yarn, etc. While estimating its working capital needs, the main aspect to be focused on is the funds blocked in raw materials. Working capital blocked in raw materials is estimated on the basis of the production budget for the year. From production budget it comes to know what quantity of raw materials will be needed to meet production targets. Then the lead time for every raw material is decided. Thus the unit comes to know for how many days they will have to hold inventory of raw materials. The minimum quantity needed is then multiplied to its rates and thus the unit arrives at its working capital requirement for its production. Then the firm deducts the funds of creditors for raw materials.

The other current assets and current liabilities are taken from its monthly balance sheet and are shown with 10% variation for next quarters estimations. Hence it can be said that RSWM uses percentage or ratio of Sales method generally for estimation of working capital for its various units.

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPITAL

Any change in working capital will have an effect on businesss cash flows. A positive change in working capital indicates that the business has paid out cash for e.g. in purchasing or converting inventory, paying creditors etc. Hence an increase in working capital will have a negative effect on the businesss cash holding. However a negative change in working capital indicates lower funds to pay off short term liabilities (current liabilities) which may have bad repercussions to the future of the company. Managing Working Capital is one of the pioneers and role-playing part of the company. RSWM Ltd. manages its working capital very efficiently for its business. Each & every component of working capital is dealt with expertise and experience of the finance & accounting department. The procedure is very simple for estimating working capital requirement. Predetermined norms are applied wherever they are applicable. Mainly working capital management is the function of finance department but many other departments like production, purchase & marketing are involved in this procedure indirectly. Thus the effort from all the departments of various units helps company to manage its working capital in a systematic manner. Being the part and unit of LNJ GROUP also follows the main company norms and terms for calculation for accounting of its working capital. Hence this training helped me a lot to know the importance and function of working capital and its component. Here I was able to relate what I had read in the books and learnt in class rooms.
