RATIO ANALYSIS 
Ratio analysis is the process of determining and 
interpreting numerical relationship based on 
financial statements. It is the technique of 
interpretation of financial statements with the 
help of accounting ratios derived from the 
balance sheet and profit and loss account.
Basis Of Comparision 
 Trend Analysis involves comparison of a firm over 
a period of time, that is, present ratios are compared 
with past ratios for the same firm. It indicates the 
direction of change in the performance – 
improvement, deterioration or constancy – over the 
years. 
 Interfirm Comparison involves comparing the ratios 
of a firm with those of others in the same lines of 
business or for the industry as a whole. It reflects the 
firm’s performance in relation to its competitors. 
 Comparison with standards or industry average
Ways To Interpret Accounting 
Ratios 
 Single absolute ratio. 
 Group ratio. 
 Historical comparison. 
 Inter-firm comparison. 
 Projected ratios.

Topic for observation
Asian Paint 
 70 years of innovation in paint 
 Since its foundation in 1942, 
 India’s largest and Asia’s third largest paint company, 
with a turnover of Rs.127.15 billion. 
 Asian Paints operates in 17 countries and has 23 paint 
manufacturing facilities in the world servicing 
consumers in over 65 countries. 
 Category - Paints/ Varnishes 
 Competitors- Jenson & Nicolson India, Kansai Nerolac, 
Akzonobel, Sherwin-Williams, Nippon Paints, PPG 
Industries Inc.
BALANCE SHEET RATIOS 
 CURRENT RATIO 
 QUICK RATIO 
 DEBT EQUITY RATIO
CURRENT RATIO 
 Working Capital Ratio or Solvency Ratio 
 Express the relationship between Current Assets & Current 
Liabilities. 
 Current Ratio = Current Assets :: Current Liabilities 
 Standard Current Ratio = 2:1 is considered to be satisfactory.
SIGNIFICANCE & PURPOSE 
Significance 
 Test of Credit strength & solvency of an organization. 
 Indicates the strength of the working capital (CA-CL). 
 Company’s ability to meet its day-to-day financial obligation. 
Purpose 
 Serves index of short–term solvency. 
 Index of the strength of working capital of an organization.
ASIAN PAINTS RELATED CURRENT 
RATIO ANALYSIS 
 Ratio less than 1.00 may 
indicate liquidity issues. 
 Ratio between 1.00 and 
2.00 is sufficient. 
 It can meet its short term 
obligations with short 
term assets. 
 CR in 2014 < CR in 2013 
as CA > in 2014 but CL has 
also > in 2014.
QUICK RATIO 
Acid Test Ratio 
 Measures the ability of a company to 
use its near cash or quick assets to 
pay off its debts 
 An indicator of a company’s short-term 
liquidity
Significance of Quick Ratio 
 Measure of a company's ability to settle its current 
liabilities on a very short notice. 
 May provide a misleading indication of a company's 
liquidity position 
 More reliable measure of liquidity for manufacturing 
companies and construction firms that have relatively high 
levels of inventory, work in progress and receivables 
 More conservative version of current ratio. 
 More rigorous assessment of a company's ability to pay 
its current liabilities
Quick Ratio Will be calculated 
as follows- 
Cash in hand + Cash at Bank +Receivables + 
Marketable Securities Inventories 
Current Liabilities – Provisions 
Quick Ratio of 2014, 
= 3122.77 + 478.6 – 1665.05 
2423.55 – 617.72 
Quick Ratio of 2013, 
= 2681.53 + 362.61 – 1480.79 
2078.94 – 500.32
Analysis 
 A quick ratio of 1.00 or 1:1 means that the most liquid assets of 
a business are equal to its total debts 
 More than one indicates that the most liquid assets of a business 
exceed its total debts. 
 Less than one indicates that a business would not be able to 
repay all its debts by using its most liquid assets. 
 Thus we conclude that, generally, a higher quick ratio is 
preferable because it means greater liquidity and a lower quick 
ratio company indicates a relatively lower liquidity position than 
its competitors. 
 Low or decreasing quick ratios generally suggest that a 
company is over-leveraged, struggling to maintain or grow sales, 
paying bills too quickly or collecting receivables too slowly
Debt Equity ratio 
It indicates what proportion of equity 
and debt the company is using to finance 
its assets. 
Formulae: 
Debt:equity ratio=debt/equity 
Standard ratio of debt equity is 2:1

>1:creditor assets are greater than

Profitability Ratio 
A profitability ratio is a measure of profitability, which is a 
way to measure a company's performance. Profitability is 
simply the capacity to make a profit, and a profit is what is 
left over from income earned after you have deducted all 
costs and expenses related to earning the income. 
 DEFINITION OF ‘GROSS PROFIT’ 
A company's revenue minus its cost of goods sold. Gross 
profit is a company's residual profit after selling a 
product or service and deducting the cost associated 
with its production and sales.
GROSS PROFIT RATIO 
Significance:- 
 It is a profitability ratio measuring what proportion of 
revenue is converted into gross profit . 
Formula: 
GP RATIO =

GROSS PROFIT = REVENUE - COST OF GOODS SOLD

SOLD 
8716.85 7600.34 
GROSS PROFIT 1701.93 1371.36 
RATIO 16.34 15.29
ANALYSIS: 
 The ideal level of gross profit margin depends on 
the industries, how long the business has been 
established and other factors. 
 High gross profit margin indicates that the 
company can make a reasonable profit, as long as 
it keeps the overhead cost in control. 
 Low gross profit margin indicates that the business 
is unable to control its production cost.
 Gross profit ratio is high in current year than that of 
previous year which shows increase in profit which 
indicates that even the small changes in gross profit can 
affect profitability of the company significantly. 
 In current year it is shown that we have profit to cover 
indirect expenses whichever are there for company. 
 It is showing that there is increase in gross profit ratio 
from that of previous year which indicates company’s 
growth.
Net Profit Ratio 
 The net profit percentage is the ratio of after-tax profits to 
net sales. It reveals the remaining profit after all costs of 
production, administration, and financing have been deducted 
from sales, and income taxes recognized. 
Formula:-

Here, 
NPAT = Gross Profit – Operating expenses –Tax 
Net Sales = Gross Sales – Sales returns
Significance:- 
 Useful tool for profitability measurement. 
 Provides clues to company. 
 Acts as an indicator of risk/safety and efficiency of the 
company. 
 Importance of net profit to different parties related to 
business- 
 Owners 
 Investors 
 Creditors 
 Competitors 
 Government

Net Profit Ratio 11.70 % 11.22 %
Analysis:- 
 A high ratio indicates the efficient management of the affairs of 
business. 
 Net Profit Ratio can vary significantly from business to business and 
can be affected by internal and external factors, Examples of factors 
that can affect the net profit ratio are as follows – 
 Industries & Segments 
 Selling Price 
 Cost of Factors 
 Efficiency 
 Taxation 
 Here, In this case of Asian Paints, the Net Profit Ratio has decreased from 
11.70% in 2013 to 11.22% in 2014, which means company has failed to convert 
its revenue into actual profit.
FIXED ASSET TURNOVER RATIO 
 Fixed-asset turnover is the ratio of sales (on the profit and loss 
account) to the value of fixed assets (on the balance sheet). It 
indicates how well the business is using its fixed assets to 
generate sales. 
Formula: 
FIXED ASSET TURNOVER RATIO :- 
Net Sales/Fixed Assets 
Where, NET SALES = GROSS SALES - SALES RETURN
Purpose of FATR 
 Ratio establishes a relationship between fixed assets and sales. 
 Higher ratio is better 
 Standard ratio:5 times 
 Comparison for year to year 
 Not useful for short term
