representing Dairy Farmers Co-operatives. It is the third largest dairy co-

operative amongst the dairy co-operative operatives in the country. In South

India it stands first in terms of procurement as well as sales. One of the core

functions of the Federation is marketing of milk and milk products.

The Corporate Exposure and Learning (CEL) conducted at Karnataka

Milk Federation consist of two parts:-

Part A consists of a general study relating to the organization. It

consists of the kind of industry they belong to and the type of business

undertaken by them. It also consists of information about various divisions,

on how they function, the strategies and policies used by each division and

how they are able to achieve their goals. The study includes the functioning

of KMF with reference to Mc Kinsey’s 7S framework, which is an indicator

to KMF’s performance and for what it is till date.

INTRODUCTION TO FINANCE:-

Finance if the life blood of a business. The Financial Management

study about the process of procuring and judicious use of financial resources

with a view to maximizing the valued of the firm thereby the value of the

owners i.e., equity shareholders in a company is maximized.

The traditional view of Financial Management looks into the following

functions that a Finance Manager of a business firm will perform.

Arrangement of short term and long term funds from financial

institutions.

Mobilization of funds through financial instruments like Equity

shares, Preference shares, Debentures, Bonds etc.

Orientation of Finance functions with the Accounting function and

compliance of legal provisions relating to funds procurement, use and

distribution.

With the increase in complexity of modern business situation, the role of a Finance Manager is not just confined to procurement of funds, but his area of functioning is extended to judicious and efficient use of funds available to the firm, keeping in view the objectives of the firm and expectations of the providers of funds.

INTRODUCTION TO WORKING CAPITAL

Working capital management is a significant in financial management

due to the fact that it plays a pivotal role in keeping the wheels of a business

enterprise running. Working capital management is concerned with short-

term financial decisions. Shortage of funds for working capital has caused

many businesses to fail and in many cases, has retarded their growth. Lack

of efficient and effective utilization of working capital leads to earn low rate

of return on capital employed or even compels to sustain losses. The need

for skilled working capital management has thus become greater in recent

years.

A firm invests a part of its permanent capital in fixed assets and keeps

a part of it for working capital i.e. for meeting the day to day requirements.

We will hardly find affirm which does not require any amount of working

capital for its normal operations. The requirement of working capital varies

from firm to firm depending upon the nature of business, production policy,

market conditions, seasonality of operations, conditions of supply etc.

Working capital to a company is like the blood to the human body. Working

capital is the lifeblood of any business firm and shortage of funds for

working capital will lead to business failure. The management of short term

funds. Working capital management if carried out effectively, efficiently and

consistently, will assure the health of an organization.

MEANING OF WORKING CAPITAL :

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 4

Page 5: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

Working capital is defined as “the excess of current liabilities”.

Current assets are those assets which will be converted into cash within the

current accounting period or within the next year as a result of the ordinary

operations of the business. They are cash or near cash resources. These

include:

Cash and Bank balances

Receivables

Inventory

o Raw-materials, stores and spares

o Work-in-progress

o Finished goods

Prepaid expenses

Short-term advances

Temporary investments

The value represented by these assets circulates among several items. Cash

is used to buy raw-materials, to pay wages and to meet other manufacturing

expenses. Finished goods are produced. These are held as inventories. When

these are sold, accounts receivables are created. The collection of accounts

receivable brings cash into the firm. The cycle starts again.

Current liabilities are the debts of the firms that have to be paid

during the current accounting period or within a year. These include:

Creditors for goods purchased

Outstanding expenses i.e., expenses due but not paid

Short-term borrowings

Advances received against sales

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 5

Page 6: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

Taxes and dividends payable

Other liabilities maturing within a year.

Working capital is also known as circulating capital, fluctuating capital and

revolving capital. The magnitude and composition keep on changing

continuously in the course of business.

OPERATIONAL DEFINITIONS OF THE CONCEPTS:-

Working capital

Working capital may be regarded as that portion of a firm’s total

capital, which is employed in financing its day-to-day operations such as

cash, debtors, inventories, marketable securities etc., it is the amount of

funds, which a firm holds, in the form of current assets to meet its current

obligations. It’s also known as Revolving and Circulating capital.

CLASSIFICATION OF WORKING CAPITAL :-

Gross Working Capital :

It is the capital invested in the total current assets of the enterprise.

E.g. Cash, Bills receivables, Sundry debtors, Short-term loans, Pre-paid

expenses etc.,

Net Working Capital:

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 6

Page 7: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

It is the excess of current assets over current liabilities. Or it is the

difference between the current assets and current liabilities.

Negative Working Capital:-

It refers to the excess of current liabilities over the current assets. Its

also known as Working Capital Deficit.

Permanent Working Capital:

It refers to the amount of investment made permanently in current

assets required throughout the year to carry out the business operations

successively. Permanent working capital is to be financed out of long-term

funds but no return can be expected from it. Permanent Working Capital is

also known as regular or fixed or had core Working Capital.

Temporary Working Capital:

It is the additional Working Capital, which is required for financing

the increase in the volume of business operations at different times during

the operating year. Thus it refers to the amount of Working Capital, which

goes on fluctuating or changing from time to time with the change in the

volume of business activities. Its also known as variable or fluctuating

Working Capital. It is to be financed out of short-term funds and some return

can be expected from it.

Current Assets:

Current assets are those assets which change their form and substance,

and which are converted into cash during the normal operating cycle of the

business or within an accounting year. In short, all those assets, which can

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 7

Page 8: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

be converted into cash within an accounting year, are called Current Assets.

They include cash, short-term securities, debtors, bills receivables and stock

inventory.

Current Liabilities:

Current Liabilities are those claims of outsiders, which are expected to

mature for payment within an accounting year. In other words, it refers to all

short term obligation or liabilities which are required to be repaid within a

period of one year out of short-term or current assets. They include creditors,

bills payables, outstanding expenses and provision for taxation etc.,

Cost of Goods Sold:

It refers to opening stock of finished goods plus purchases of finished

goods plus all direct expenses incurred on finished goods minus closing

stock of finished goods. Alternatively, the cost of goods sold can be taken as

sales of finished goods minus gross profit.

Cash:

Cash is the money, which the firm can disburse immediately without

any restrictions. It includes coins, currency and cheques held by the firm and

balances in bank accounts. Sometimes mere cash items such as marketable

securities or bank time cheques are included in cash.

OBJECTIVES OF WORKING CAPITAL:

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 8

Page 9: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

The basic objectives of working capital management are as follows:

By optimizing the investment in current assets and by reducing the

level of current liabilities, the company can reduce the locking up of

funds in working capital there by; it can improve the return on capital

employed in the business.

The second important objective of working capital management is that

the company should always be in a position to meet its current

obligations which should properly be supported by the current assets

available with the firm. But maintaining excess funds in working

capital means locking of funds without return.

TOOLS AND TECHNIQUES OF WORKING CAPIRAL ANALYSIS:-

Gross current assets:- This tool tells us the amount invested in the

various components of current assets and its share in a total

investment of the company. By studying this, financial manager is

able to manage efficiently, the working capital, which ensures the

greatest return on its investment, planning and control of funds.

Ratio Analysis: - A ratio is a quotient of two numbers i.e. the relation

of one item to another expressed in a simple mathematical form. Here

we are considering the ratios, which talks about the efficiency of

working capital management. They include:-

Iintroduction to Nandini Milk Industry (KMF)

Karnataka Milk Federation – a harbinger of rural prosperityKarnataka Milk Federation (KMF) is the largest cooperative dairy Federation in South India, owned and managed by milk producers of Karnataka State. KMF has over 2 million milk producers in over 10500 Dairy Cooperative Societies at village level, functioning under 13 District Cooperative Milk Unions in Karnataka State. The mission of the federation is to usher rural prosperity through dairy development. During the last four decades of cooperative dairy development by KMF, the dairy industry in Karnataka has progressed from a situation of milk-scarcity to that of milk-surplus.  

“Quality Excellence from Cow to Consumer” – is the motto of the Federation to obtain better-quality Milk and milk products from our value chain (Procurement to Processing to Marketing). Thus milk and milk products, under “Nandini” brand name, are unmatched in quality made available to consumers at most competitive prices. In a way Nandini Milk

and Milk Products are “Spreading wealth of health”. 

 Karnataka Cooperative Milk Producers' Federation Limited (KMF) is the Apex Body in Karnataka representing Dairy Farmers' Co-operatives. It is the second largest dairy co-operative amongst the dairy cooperatives in the country. In South India it stands first in terms of procurement as well as sales. One of the core functions of the Federation is marketing of Milk and Milk Products. The Brand “Nandini" is the household name for Pure and Fresh milk and milk products.

KMF has 13 Milk Unions throughout the State which procure milk from Primary Dairy Cooperative Societies (DCS) and distribute milk to the consumers in various Towns/Cities/Rural markets in Karnataka.

The first ever World Bank funded Dairy Development Program in the country started in Karnataka with the organization of Village Level Dairy Co-operatives in 1974. The AMUL pattern of dairy co-operatives started functioning in Karnataka from 1974-75 with the financial assistance from World Bank, Operation Flood II & III. The dairy co-operatives were established under the ANAND pattern in a three tier structure with the Village Level Dairy Co-operatives forming the base level, the District Level Milk Unions at the middle level to take care of the procurement, processing and marketing of milk and the Karnataka Milk Federation as the Apex Body to co-ordinate the growth of the sector at the State level.

Coordination of activities among the Unions and developing market for Milk and Milk products is the responsibility of KMF. Marketing Milk in the respective jurisdiction is organized by the respective Milk Unions. Surplus/deficit of liquid milk among the member Milk Unions is monitored by the Federation. While the marketing of all the Milk Products is organized by KMF, both within and outside the State, all the Milk and Milk products are sold under a common brand name NANDINI.

World Bank Study - ObservationsThe World Bank, in its study on the effect of Co-operative dairying in Karnataka, has pointed out that:

The villages with Dairy Co-operative Societies are much better off than those without.

The families with dairy cattle are economically better than those without dairy cattle.

Women who had no control on the household income have better control in terms of Milk Money.

A single commodity �MILK� has acted as a catalyst in the change in the Socio-Economic impact of the rural economy.

There is a positive impact on those at the lower end of the economic ladder both in terms of landholding and caste.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 15

Page 16: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

The philosophy of dairy development is to eliminate middlemen and organize institutions to be owned and managed by the milk producers themselves, employing professionals. To sum it up, every activity of KMF revolves around meeting one basic objective: 'Achieve economies of scale to ensure maximum returns to the milk producers, at the same time facilitate wholesome milk at reasonable price to urban consumers'. Ultimately, the complex network of cooperative organization should build a bridge between masses of rural producers and millions of urban consumers and in the process achieve a socio-economic revolution in every hinterland of the State. Evolution

Karnataka Milk Federation which is most popular as KMF, evolved itself as a premier and most profitable dairy farmers' organization in the State of Karnataka.As an agency in 1975 to implement the World Bank Aided Dairy Development Projects, Karnataka Dairy Development Corporation (KDDC) was formed, the company grew itself fast and as it spreads the wings of new found rural economic activity - Dairying all over the State, the genesis of apex cooperative body took the shape of KMF in 1983 encompassing entire State with 13 District Co-operative Milk Unions executing the various parameters of Dairy activity - organization of Dairy Co-operatives, Milk Routes, Veterinary Services, Procurement of milk in two shifts of the day, Chilling, Processing of milk, distribution of milk and also establishment of Cattle Feed Plants, Nandini Sperm Station, Liquid Nitrogen Supply, Training Centers - as its main stay.The entire system was reconstructed on the model of now well known `ANAND' pattern dairy cooperative societies. Eight southern districts of Karnataka was considered initially with a target of organizing 1800 Dairy Co-operative Societies, four Milk Unions and processing facilities were set up to the tune of 6.5 lakhs per day by 1984.Under Operation Flood - II &III, project which started in 1984 & 1987 covered the remaining parts of Karnataka. Thirteen milk unions are organized in 175 talukas of all 20 districts then and the field work was extended by organizing more dairy cooperative societies. The processing facilities i.e. chilling centers, milk dairies and powder plants were transferred in phases to the administrative control of respective cooperative milk unions and the activities continued to be implemented by these District Organizations. Additional processing facilities were created & existing

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

facilities augmented every decade with the help of Govt. / Zilla Panchayat and NDDB to handle ever increasing milk procurement without declaring milk holidays. The processing facility as exists at 32.25 lakh liters/day is further strengthened.  DAIRY SCENARIO:-

Indian Agriculture is an economic symbiosis of crop and cattle

production small and marginal farmers owing land holding engaged in

agriculture. Agriculture provides as employment for short duration in whole

year and part of workforce is virtually unemployed. In the situation dairying

sets right this imbalance in employment.

Dairying sector provides farm families the triple benefits of nutritive

food, supplementary income and productive employment for family labour.

By looking into the progress in dairy sector, there are some

achievements & they are:-

Number One Commodity :- Milk is India’s number one form

commodity in terms of its contribution to the National Economy.

World’s Number One Producer : - In 1995, the United States was

the world’s number one milk producer with its annual milk production

of 72 million tons. In 1998, when India’s annual output is projected at

78 million tons.

Values of Dairy Output :- The value of output from dairying based

on consumer process is high i.e. 1,05,000 crores (1997) and 1,50,00

crores (2000A

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

RESEARCH DESIGN

According to Johade Cook “A research design is the arrangement of

conditions for collection and analysis of data in the manner that aim to

combine relevance to research process with economy in procedure”.

“The research methodology or research design constitutes the blue

print for the collection, measurement and analysis of data”

“Research Design is the plan and structure of investigation so

conceived as to obtain answers for the research questions. It includes

an outline of what the researcher will do from writing the hypothesis

and their operational implications to the final analysis of data”

The different types of research design are:

Exploratory Research.

Conclusive Research.

The research design adopted here is of Descriptive Research

Design.

This type of design is followed when

The objectives are clearly stated.

The sampling technique going to be adopted is known.

The sampling size is determined.

The type of data collection is determined.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 19

Page 20: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

DATA COLLECTION:-

The data collection is one of the important aspect in the research

design purely because, it is the way that how we can get answer to the

research question.

SOURCES OF DATA COLLECTION:-

All the details are collected from secondary sources only.

Secondary data includes, the annual reports, financial reports of the

company etc., discussion with the concerned officials has also helped to

verify and evaluate the variations and results either to confirm it..

The data is collected in two ways:

Primary Data

Secondary Data

Primary Data:-

The primary data collection is one of the key tools used by the

researcher for data collection. It is the first hand information collected by the

researcher from the respondents directly. Primary data is collected through

observation and communication

Secondary Data:-

The secondary data is another form of data collection, where the data

is collected from the existing records, company manual and form previously

carried out research work and also through internet.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 20

Page 21: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

SCOPE OF THE STUDY:-

The study will help in analyzing the working capital for a period of

five years i.e. from 2005-06 to 2009-2010 of KMF. This is so because ratios

may not prescribe any practical standards, as they are several in numbers for

each element of study. The study helps us in finding out how well the

organization is managing the working capital.

IMPORTANCE OF THE STUDY:-

The study has got importance because working capital affects the day-

to-day operations of the business firm to larger extent. Thus, effective

management of the working capital is required for the smooth functioning of

the business firm.

There is always a need and much importance will be given for

working capital because there is always a time gap between the sales of

goods and receipt of sales proceeds. During this period, working capital is

required for sustaining or maintaining the sales activities. If adequate

working capital is not maintained for this period , the firm will not be able ot

sustain or maintain the sales, since it may not be in a position to purchase

raw materials and pay wages and other expenses and produce the goods for

the sale.

Thus, every firm requires adequate Working Capital to run its

business smoothly and successfully. It is very important to have adequate

Working Capital for that there must be efficiency in managing the working

capital requirements of the firm. However, there is a danger from both

excessive and in-adequate working capital positions.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 21

Page 22: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

The following two reasons state its importance.

1. Investment in current assets represents a substantial portion of total

investment.

2. Investment in current assets and the level of current liabilities have to

be geared quickly to the changes in sales.

Thus importance of Working Capital Management is reflected in the fact

that Financial Managers spent a great deal of time managing current

assets and current liabilities.

OBJECTIVES OF THE STUDY:-

To reflect the working efficiency of the concern.

To compare the efficiency of the firm.

To know the working capital of KMF as a whole.

To study the pattern and procedure followed regarding working

capital management in KMF with special reference to:-

Cash Management.

To study the liquidity of assets used. The ratio relating to the liquidity

speaks about how easy the assets can be converted into cash.

To study in detail the reasons for ups and downs in working capital

position, by studying variations in individual assets.

STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM:-

Working Capital management plays a vital role in an organization as

it represents a substantial portion of the total investment. The importance of

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 22

Page 23: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

working capital management is reflected in the fact that financial managers

spend a great deal of time in managing current assets and liabilities. When

not managed in proper manner i.e., if the amount invested is more in

working capital it results in funds getting locked, which otherwise may be

invested elsewhere in a profitable manner and at the same time if there is

inadequate investment, it results in shortage of funds and day to day

activities may come to a standstill.

Working Capital analysis depends to a large extent on the study of

each asset independently by calculating ratios, preparing fund flow

statements etc. this techniques help in scientific decision-making process or

in deciding the efficiency in utilizing working capital. Thus the problem

taken for study is “Working Capital Analysis”

The study shows a comparative analysis of the relevant ratios

concerned with working capital of KMF.

.

REFERENCE PERIOD:-

The period covered under this is five financial years i.e. from

2005-2006 to 2009-2010.

CONTEXT OF THE STUDY:-

The context of the study considers the following two important

facts which are very much essential for the study of Working Capital

Management in KMF.

Whether the Working Capital of KMF is sufficient or adequate.

Whether the Working Capital is properly framed and utilized.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 23

Page 24: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

REAS O N FOR THE STUDY:-

The reason or motive for the study on the “Working Capital

Management” indicates the never ending requirements of the working

capital and its importance in the day to day business operations of the

business organization; either it may be a small scale or medium scale or

large scale enterprise.

Therefore, the reason for the study on the “Working Capital

Management” mainly focuses on ‘the advance of working capital and its

proper management during all the times’.

LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY:-

The study covers a period of 3 years with the available sources i.e.

from 2007-08 to 2009-10.

10 weeks being a very short time, I have done a study that I feel to be

comprehensive and possible in this time. However, some other details

of methods of analysis could definitely be found which I have missed

out there.

The study has been restricted to the head office in Bangalore.

The study is general.

Inter firm and intra firm comparison is not possible.

Interactions with the company professionals were limited due to their

busy schedule.

Limitations of historical accounts.

Conclusions will be drawn based on theory and supplemented by

figure wherever feasible.

INTRODUCTION

Mother Dairy a unit of Karnataka Milk Federation which is

located in Yelahanka in the Bangalore North Taluk, was established in a

total area of 28 acres during under of II with a processing capacity of two

lakh liters per day on 7.12.1984 later, the processing capacity of the diary

was expanded to handle 4 Lakh liters per day during 1993-94 with an

additional cost of Rs.3.64 Corers Total of investment for this project is

Rs.10.61 corers. The different facilities available at mother diary are mother

is procuring 2.4 lakh liters milk per day from kolar Milk sadali and

Gowribidnur are possessing bulk milk coolers, through road milk toners.

The Diary is processing and distributing on average 2.25 lakh liters of Milk

per day to the consumers in Bangalore city with the increase in demand for

liquid milk. It is planned to increase the processing capacity of the Diary.

Milk is highly nutritive and majority of Indian population rely on milk

for their protein supplement milk is obtained by milking well bread cows

and buffaloes, either manually or through sterilized milking machine milk

cream, cheese ghee, condensed milk of milk-protein are the dairy products

ores in this organization Industrialization is taking place in such a rapid

place that the entrepreneurs or industrialists often forget to know the overall

functioning of all the systems of an organization in the most of corporate

objectives. This may be viewed all one of the reason where most of our

industries one becoming with day to day. The magic behind the successful

ORGANIZATIONAL OBJECTIVE AND STRATEGIES

The First step in an organization is the assessment of its objective and

strategies i.e., what business are we in? And at what level of quality do with wish

to provide or service? Where do we want to be in the future? It is only answering

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 42

Page 43: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

there and other related questions that the organizational must assess the strengths

and weakness of its human resources.

NEEDS ASSESSMENT: Needs assessment diagnosis present problems and

future challenges to be meet through training and development organizations

spend vast sums of money (Usually as a percentage of turnover) on training and

development. Before committing such huge resource organization would do well

to assess the training needs of their employees organizational that implement

training programmers without conducting needs assessment may be malign

errors.

TRAINING AND DEVELOPMENT OBJECTIVES

Once training needs are assessed, training and development goals

must be established. Without clearly set goal, it is not possible to design a

training and development program and after it has been implemented, there

will be no way of measuring its effectiveness. Goals must be tangible

verifiable, and measurable. This is easy where skills training are involved

Know Your Milk: -

Importance of milk

Milk is nature's ideal food for infants and growing children.The importance of milk in our diet has been recognized since Vedic times, and all modern research has only supported and reinforced this view. In fact, milk is now considered not only desirable but essential from the time the child is born. The baby is recommended to be breast-fed until it is weaned and thereafter given cow/buffalo/goat milk till he or she reaches 12 years of age.

The National Institute of Nutrition has recommended a minimum of 300 gms daily intake of milk for children between 1-3 years of age and 250 gms for those between 10-12 years.

MILK DEFINITION AND ITS COMPOSITION

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 47

Page 48: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

Milk may be defined as the whole, fresh, clean, lacteal

secretion obtained by complete milking of one or more healthy milk animals, excluding that obtained within 15 days before or 5 days after calving or such periods as may be necessary to render the milk practically colostrum-free and containing the minimum prescribed percentages of milk fat and milk-solids-not-fat. In India, the term 'milk', when unqualified, refers to cow or buffalo milk, or a combination thereof. Milk SNF means Milk Solids-not-Fat, comprising protein, carbohydrates, vitamins, minerals, etc in milk other than milk fat.

  ESSENTIAL NUTRIENTS IN MILK

Milk is almost an ideal food. It has high nutritive value. It supplies body-building proteins, bone-forming minerals and health-giving vitamins and furnishes energy-giving lactose and milk fat. Besides supplying certain essential fatty acids, it contains the above nutrients in an easily digestible and assailable form. All these properties make milk an important

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 48

Page 49: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

food for pregnant mothers, growing children, adolescents, adults, invalids, convalescents and patients alike.

Milk is a powerful nutrition package containing nine essential nutrients including calcium, protein and potassium. Milk is the perfect beverage for today's kids and teens. 

Calcium :- Milk and dairy products are an important source of calcium. Apart from bone health, Calcium also plays vital role in blood clotting, nerve conduction, muscle contraction, regulation of enzyme activity, cell membrane function and blood pressure regulation.

Protein: - Milk is a good source of low-cost high quality protein, which is readily digested. This protein is important for a number of bodily functions-vital to brain development and the growth of body tissues. 

 VitaminA:- Maintains normal vision and skin. Helps regulate cell growth and integrity of the immune system.

Vitamin B-12 : -Essential for the growth and health of the nervous system. Linked to normal activity of folic acid and is involved in blood formation. 

VitaminD : -Promotes the absorption of calcium and phosphorus, and influences bone mineralization, the strengthening of bones. 

Potassium: - Regulates the body's fluid balance and blood pressure. It is also needed for muscle activity and contractions. 

Phosphorus :- Helps generate energy in the body's cells and influences bone mineralization, the strengthening of bones.

 Niacin:- Keeps enzymes functioning normally and helps the body process sugars and fatty acids. It is also important for the development of the nervous system. 

Riboflavin :- Helps produce energy in the body's cells and plays a vital role in the development of the nervous system.

CLASS AND TYPE OF MILK

Dairies in India have to market milk by standardizing, as per the various types of milk prescribed under Prevention of Food Adulteration Act. These type of milk differ in their Milk fat and Milk SNF contents.

Raw milk procured from villages, contain numerous pathogenic and spoilage bacteria. These microorganisms, if allowed to grow, multiply at logarithmic rate and produce many toxins and enzymes and spoil milk. Hence milk is processed by heat treatment in dairies.

Various types of heat-treatment given to milk are as below –

1. Pasteurization – 

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 50

Page 51: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

The term Pasteurization has been coined C or below. In this process, pathogenic and spoilage

organisms are destroyed. Normally pasteurized milk is packed in sachets and shall be stored under refrigeration conditions, so as to prevent the growth of remaining organisms in milk. Pasteurized milk has a shelf life of 2 days when stored and transported under refrigeration conditions. This milk is boiled and consumed in Indian homes.C for 15 seconds (or to any temperature-time combination which is equally efficient), in approved and properly operated equipment. After pasteurization, the milk is immediately cooled to 6after its inventor, Louis Pasteur of France. Pasteurization refers to the process of heating every particle of milk to at least 72

2. Sterilization -

C for minimum period of 15 minutes. After heating, sterilized milk bottles are gradually cooled to room temperature. Due to economic disadvantages and browning of milk, this process is

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 51

Page 52: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

used only for bottled flavored milk. This Sterilized milk has a shelf-life of not less than 3 months, even at room temperature, and can be consumed directly.Sterilized milk is manufactured by filling into bottles and heating bottled milk to not less than120 

3. Ultra High Treatment (UHT) –

 

C for 4 seconds and cooled instantly which retains all the vitamins and nutritional value of milk providing zero bacteria product which needs no boiling. The milk is packed in 6 layer tamper proofed Tetra-pack packaging which prevents the milk from spoilage due to sunlight, bacteria, germs and oxygen, thus ensuring freshness and purity of milk packed. The milk can be stored without refrigeration for 60 days in fino-packaging and 120 days in brik packaging.During the process of UHT, milk is heat-treated to temperature of 137

KMF has introduced four UHT milk variants in the market, viz.,Nandini Good life

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 52

Page 53: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

(3.5% Fat, 8.5%

 SNF), Nandini Full Cream Milk (12% Fat, 9% SNF),

Nandini Smart (1.5% Fat, 9% SNF) & Nandini slim (with less than 0.5% fat and 9% SNF) catering to diverse groups of consumers, including health conscious consumers.

4.Homogenization –

Any of the above class and type of milk may be homogenized. Homogenized milk is milk which has been treated in such a manner as to ensure break-up of the fat globules in milk to such an extent that after storage no visible cream separation occurs on the milk. Milk is homogenized using a high-precision & expensive equipment known as Homogenizer, which consists of a high pressure piston pump to force milk at high pressures (and velocity) through a narrow opening between the homogenizing valve and its seat; the fat globules in the milk are thereby sub-divided into smaller particles of more uniform size. Cream layer formation does not take place in homogenized milk.

 Milk pack, that is available in the market, contains printed details about the type of heat-treatment that the milk contained in the pack has undergone – Pasteurized / Sterilized / Ultra High Treated (UHT); the class of milk as per PFA Act – Toned / Double Toned / Full Cream Milk / Cow Milk / Buffalo Milk / Skim Milk; if any other processing –

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 53

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

Homogenized, etc. For instance, if Toned Milk is pasteurized and also homogenized, it is designated as “Pasteurized Homogenized Toned Milk

Human Resource Development

There are at present 20.35 Lakh dairy farmers as primary members including 3.5 Lakhs of SC/ST and 6.6 Lakh woman members.Dairy Co-operatives employ more than 32000 people and 5200 are permanent KMF Units and Unions employees.Indirect employment thro' veterinary services, milk transportation, milk sales etc. activities is to the tune of 52000 people.This sector has also created demand and employment in manufacturers of equipments required by DCS, Dairies and printing.  Quality and Food Safety

           During the last ten years, the Federation is giving greater emphasis on procuring quality milk from DCSs under the concept of “Quality Excellence from Cow to Consumer.” Many Clean Milk Production (CMP) initiatives have been implemented at all the stages of procurement, processing and marketing. Among these CMP initiatives, noteworthy initiative is the setting up of Community Milking Parlours in villages. The KMF is forerunner to introduce this innovative technological initiative for bringing about revolutionary improvement in quality of milk collected in DCSs. This system has several advantages such as elimination of mastitis in milch animals and improvement of productivity. The milk from milking machines, collected through Automatic Computerized Milk Collection Units is chilled directly in Bulk Milk Coolers. This chilled raw milk, untouched and unadulterated by human hands, has very high microbiological quality, comparable to international standards. This high quality milk is being

INTEGRATED BUSINESS PLAN:-

Preparation of Integrated Business Plan in consultation with the

Division Heads. Integrated Business Plan is prepared after taking into

consideration the various experience, growth demand and supply, export or

import policy of the Government, Government legislations on various

issues, statutory levies, geographical conditions – particularly because we

deal with agro based perishable commodity. Since the market is volatile and

also market conditions. Hence, preparation of Integrated Business Plan

meticulously is a very important task for the Federation.

Source of income :-

The main source of income for the Federation is as under:-

Direct income on account of sale of milk and milk products at Mother

Dairy - one of the units of the Federation

Conversion income at Mother Dairy i.e., if the surplus milk received

at Mother Dairy is being converted into Skim Milk powder, for which

specified amount is charged and hence the conversion amount.

A certain amount of profit on sale of cattle feed by the Federation

earns 4% as service charges.

Costing :-

The Federation does not have a pre-determined costing system

because most of the time the fixation of selling price of milk depends on

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 59

Page 60: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

various factors like competitor’s entry in to the market, their pricing of the

products, and interference from the Government etc. Because of these,

costing does not play a role in decision making; that is the reason the

member milk unions and Federation sometimes lose heavily on crude

method only to assist the Management in certain decision making.

Computerization :-

The Federation has computerized all its financial activities right from

generation of receipts, vouchers, invoicing, generation and submission of

information to the Management. The Federation has also succeeded in net

working of the finance sections so that the information flows easily and

speedily.

As regards Mother Dairy, the entire Dairy activities right from

reception of milk to the dispatch of milk has been totally computerized and

is working with oracle system. The Federation is planning to upgrade the

existing system to the present level or activities.

Distribution of Profits:-

The Finance Division after complying with the provisions of

Karnataka Co-operative Society’s Act and Byelaws of the Federation

submits all its proposals to the Board for distribution of dividend and bonus

to members on yearly basis. For the first time, the Federation has declared

dividend and bonus for the year 2001-2002 and is continuously doing from

then onwards. KMF gets financial assistance by itself through various

transactions and during extreme and contingencies it gets from National

Dairy Development Board (NDDB) for a period of 10 to 15 years. This

NDDB is located at Anand in Gujarat.

NANDINI HI TECH PRODUCT PLANT

1.0 Back ground:

The milk procurement by the co-operatives in Karnataka has steadily increased over the years due to the efforts and policies favoring milk production. Existing infrastructure of the milk co-operatives in the state was found to be insufficient for handling the excess milk.In order to meet the increased processing requirement, Karnataka Milk Federation (KMF), in consultation with National Dairy Development (NDDB), conceived to setup a product dairy of 400 TLPD with 30 MTPD powder plant in the year 2005. It was decided to set up the plant at Channarayapatna, Hassan Dist (Karnataka), a strategic location to handle the surplus milk of Hassan, Mandya, Mysore and Tumkur milk unions.The project was entrusted to NDDB on turnkey execution basis.

2. Salient features of the project:

Mc KINSEY’S MODEL WITH REFERENCE TOKARNATAKA MILK FEDERATION

The Seven S framework first appeared in “The Art of Japanese

Management” by Richard Pascale and Anthony Athos in 1981. They had

been looking at how Japanese industry had seen so successful, at around the

same time that Tom peters and Robert Waterman were exploring what made

a company excellent. The seven S models were born at a meeting of the four

authors in 1978. It went on to appear in “In Search Of Excellence” by peters

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 62

Page 63: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

and Waterman, and was taken up as a basic tool by the Global Management

consultancy McKinsey: it sometimes known as the McKinsey 7S Model.

McKinsey and Co’s 7S Framework provides a useful framework for

analyzing the strategic attributes of an organization. The McKinsey

consulting firm identified strategy as only one of the seven elements

exhibited by the best-managed companies.

1. SHARED VALUES (SUPER ORDINATE GOALS)

Shared Values or Super Ordinate Goals refer to the long term of an

organization. “Hard Minds” refer to the financial performance of an

organization. According to Pascale an enterprise that cannot generate a profit

is not adding enough value to perpetuate its right to exit, but when short-

term profits are over emphasis, a company’s long-term competitive position

can be sacrificed. Hard- minded values are tied to goals that are

unambiguous and quantifiable.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 63

Page 64: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

2. STRATEGY

Strategy is the Systematic action and allocation of resources to

achieve company aim. It also refers to the determination of the purpose and

the basic long-term objective of an enterprise and the adoption of course of

action and allocation of resources necessary to achieve these aims.

3. STRUCTURE

The structure of the organization is basically a network of authority

and responsibility, which has been assumed by and delegated to the

employees. Organizational structure defines the pattern of formal

relationship of superior and subordinate. It may be regarded as network or

role, relationship, assigned work and delegated authority of employees. It

provides the basis on which the managers and non-managerial employees

perform the job assigned to them.

4. STAFF

Staff mainly refers to the people in the organization or enterprise.

KMF views people or employees as valuable resources wherein they

carefully nurture, develop, guard, and allocate them, they believe in

transparency as the basis foundation for employing people.

5. STYLE

“Style refers to the way the management behaves and collectively

spends its time to achieve organizational goals or aims”.

KMF adopts various styles for the growth and welfare of the

organization like:-

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 64

Page 65: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

6. SKILLS

Waterman Etal consider “skills” as one of the most crucial attributes

or capabilities of an organization. The term “skills” include those

characteristics, which most people use to describe a company.

Hindustan Lever is known for their marketing skills,

7. SYSTEM

A system in the 7S framework refers to all the rules, regulations and

procedures both formal and informal that complement the organization

structure.

KMF has its own system, rules and procedures to follow which help

the company to develop a talent pool with competence to take challenges of

present and future. The organization has its own information system,

manufacturing process and control process that aims to delight the customers

through good quality products, services and solutions.

DATA ANALYSIS AND

INTERPRETATION

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 66

Page 67: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

ANALYSIS OF WORKING CAPTIAL IN KMF:-

The special factors that influence the Working Capital requirements of

the company are:-

Availability of raw materials.

Seasonal conditions.

Procurement of milk.

Animal Husbandry.

Development activities.

SOURCES OF WORKING CAPITAL:-

The organization deals with National Dairy Development Corporation

for finance to the society. It approaches Finance Department and even

NDDC for meeting working capital requirements.

RATIOS FOR WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT:-

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 67

Page 68: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

1) Current asset to Total asset : This ratio establishes the relationship

between current asset and total asset of the organization. It is used to

determine the quantum of current asset in total asset.

Current asset to Total asset:- Current Asset

Total asset

2) Current Ratio: This is the most widely used ratio. It is the ratio of

current assets to current liabilities. It shows a firms ability to over its current

liabilities over current assets. It is calculated as follows:

Current Ratio: - Current Assets

Current Liabilities

3) Ratio of Inventory to Working Capital: In order to ascertain that

there is no over stocking, the ratio of inventory to working capital should be

calculated as follows:

Ratio of Inventory to Working Capital: - Inventory Working Capital

4) Net Working Capital Turnover Ratio: This ratio shows the number

of times working capital is turned over in a stated period. The higher is the

ratio, the lower is the investment in working capital and greater are the

profits. However, a very high turnover of working capital is a sign of over

trading and may put the concern into financial difficulties. On the other

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 68

Page 69: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

hand, a low working capital turnover ratio indicates that working capital is

not efficiently utilized. This ratio is calculated as follows:

Net Working Capital Ratio: Sales

Net Working Capital5) Gross Working Capital Ratio: It is the ratio of Net Sales to Current

Assets. It determines increase in the current assets to sales. Increase of

current assets to sales means under utilization to current asset.

Decrease of current asset to sales means approximate utilization of

current asset. It is calculated as follows:

Gross Working Capital Ratio: Net sales Current Assets

6) Asset Turnover Ratio: i) Current Asset Turnover Ratio

ii) Working Capital Turnover Ratio

These ratios measure the efficiency of a firm in managing and utilizing

its asset. The higher the turnover ratio, the more efficient is the management

and utilization of current assets or working capital, while low turnover ratio

are indicative of under utilization of available resources and presence of idle

capacity.

a) Current Assets Turnover Ratio: Cost of Goods Sold

Current Assets

b) Working Capital Turnover Ratio: Cost of Goods Sold

Net Working Capital

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 69

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

7) Operating Cycle : The cycle of conversion of cash into raw-materials

into work-in-progress, working-in-progress into finished goods,

finished goods into debtors and bills receivables, and debtors into cash

again is called Operating Cycle. The time involved in this cycle

depends upon the length of the cycle. The length of the cycle in turn

determines Working capital requirements. In case of manufacturing

concern, the working capital requirements are more because of the

longer length of operating cycle. In case of financial institutions, the

length of the cycle is short therefore less working capital

requirements.

It is advantageous for the organization if the operating cycle is

small as the funds involved in the cycle are less. It is calculated as

follows:-

Operating Cycle: Inventory Period + Accounts Receivables Period.

1) Overall Profitability Ratio:- It is also known as ‘Return on

Investment’ (ROI) or ‘Return on Capital Employed’ (ROCE). It

indicates the percentage of return on the total capital employed in the

business. It is calculated by using the following formula:-

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 79

Page 80: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

ROI= Net profit after taxes

Capital Employed

The term capital has been given different meanings by different

accountants. Some of the popular are as follows:-

Sum total of all the assets whether fixed or current.

Sum total of fixed assets.

Sum total of long-term funds employed in the business i.e.,

Share Capital + Reserves and Surplus + Long-term Loans – (Non-

business Assets + Fictitious assets)

Calculation of Return On Investments for the year ending 31 st March 2009

ROI = 747.60 *100 = 10.53%

7098.22

Interpretation:-

The organization is getting Rs. 10.53 for every Rs. 100 invested by it.

2) Gross Profit Ratio:- This ratio establishes relationship between gross

profit and net sales. Its formula is :-

Gross Profit Ratio:- Gross profit --------------- *100 Net sales

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 80

Page 81: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

This ratio shows the margin left after meeting the manufacturing

costs. It measures the efficiency of production as well as pricing. It also

helps in ascertaining whether the average percentage of mark up on the

goods is maintained.

However, the gross profits should be adequate to cover the operating

expenses and to provide for fixed charges, dividend and building up of

reserves.

Calculation of Gross Profit Ratio for the year March 2010

Gross Profit Ratio = 1780.64 * 100 = 7.63%

23306.88

Interpretation:-

15-20% is considered as the ideal for this ratio. The organization has

earned a gross return of 7.63%, which is far below the ideal ratio. Hence its

profitability position is very poor.

3) Net Profit Ratio:- This indicated the net margin earned on a sale of

rupees hundred. It is calculated as follows:-

Net Profit Ratio:- Net operating profit -------------------------- * 100 Net sales

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 81

Page 82: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

This ratio helps in determining the efficiency with which the affairs of

the business are being managed. In other words, it measures the overall

efficiency of production, administration, selling, financing, pricing and tax

management. An increase in the ratio over the previous period indicates

improvement in the operational efficiency of the business provided the gross

profit ration is constant. The ratio is thus an effective measure to check the

profitability of the business. However, constant increase in the above ratio

year after year is a definite indication of improving conditions of the

business.

A firm with high net profit can do better in the adverse conditions.

Similarly, a firm with high profit margin can make better use of favorable

conditions.

Calculation of Net Profit Ratio for the year March 2009

Net Profit Ratio = 679.54 * 100 = 2.91%

23306.88

Interpretation :-

5-10% is considered as the ideal for this ratio. The organization has

made a net return of 2.91%, which is below the ideal level. Hence, its

profitability position is not satisfactory.

4) Debt-Equity Ratio:- It is determined to ascertain the soundness of the

long-term financial position of the company. It is also known as

‘external-internal equity ratio’. It is calculated as follows:-

Total long-term debt Debt ----------------------------- Or --------- Shareholders’ funds Equity

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 82

Page 83: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

This ratio indicates the proportion between shareholders funds (i.e.

tangible net worth) and the long-term borrowed funds. The ratio may be

treated as ideal if it is 1. In other words, the investor may take debt-equity

ratio as quite satisfactory, if shareholders funds are equal to borrowed funds.

However, a lower ratio say 2/3rd borrowed funds and 1/3rd owned funds

might also not be considered as unsatisfactory because some businesses

needs heavy investment in fixed, assets, that has an assured return on its

investment like public utility concerns. The lower the debt-equity ratio, the

higher is the degree of protection enjoyed by the creditors.

It is to be noted that preference shares redeemable within a period of

12 years from the date of issue be taken as part of equity. The numerator of

the ratio consists of all types of debt i.e., both short-term as well as long-

term

Calculation of Debt Equity Ratio for the year March 2009

Debt = Long Term Loans

Equity = Share Capital + reserves + P&L A/c

Debt Equity Ratio = 3204.01 = .7082:1

4523.94

Interpretation :-

1:1 is considered as ideal for this ratio. The organization’s debt equity

ratio is below the standard level; hence its long-term solvency position is not

satisfactory.

CASH MANAGEMENT

Cash, the most liquid asset, is of vital importance to the daily

operations of business firms. Its efficient management is crucial for the

solvency generally referred to as “Life Blood of a business Enterprise”.

The term Cash includes coins, currency notes, cheques and drafts held

by a concern in its hands and balances in Bank Account. Cash also includes

near cash assets {i.e., those assets which can be immediately converted in to

cash, whenever the need arise}, such as time deposits kept by a concern with

Banks and Marketable securities.

Cash as an essential element is necessary for the beginning and ending

of the Working Capital Cycle.

Motives of holding Cash:-

The various motives or reasons for the holding of cash are every

business concern are as follows:-

1) Transaction Motive.

2) Precautionary Motive.

3) Speculative Motive.

4) Compensation Motive.

1. Transaction Motive:-

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 85

Page 86: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

Every business concern keeps certain amount of cash to meet the

routine business payments. The need to satisfy this motive arises from the

lack of perfect synchronization between cash receipt and cash payments.

Cash for this purpose can be invested in meeting securities.

2. Precautionary Motive:-

The company maintains some cash to meet unexpected cash needs

arising out of unexpected contingencies, such as sharp rise in prices of Raw

Materials, unexpected delay in the collection of receivables, Strikes, Floods

and natural Calamities etc., Cash for this purpose can be invested in very

short term securities which love the ready liquidity.

3. Speculative Motives:-

The Company holds some cash balance mainly to take advantage of

and opportunity payment of cash, to take advantage cash discount available

for prompt payment of Bills etc.,

4. Compensation Motive:-

Cash management means that the cash held by a concern is neither

excessive nor inadequate but is sufficient for meeting its requirements.

In short, it means planning and control of cash. Cash management is

the most important area of Working Capital Management. Proper care and

attention will be taken in to consideration while managing the cash affairs.

Objective of Cash Management:-

Cash management has certain basic objectives. They are:-

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 86

Page 87: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

1. To meet the cash payments as per the payment schedule.

2. To minimize the amount locked up as cash balance.

ANALYSIS OF CASH MANAGEMENT IN KMF

The organization forecasts inflow and outflow of cash through cash

budget and Cash flow statements. It is included in the annual integrated

business plan comprising physical activities on monthly basis and

corresponding financial activities, monthly cash is also drawn.

The cash budget and cash flow statement is monthly reviewed and is

submitted by the P&L a/c to the board with variance reports of plan and

actual. The extent of variation between actual and budgeted cash flows

planned every month depends on market situations and in case of bulk milk.

Daily sales and purchases are the factors that cause such variations.

RATIOS FOR CASH MANAGEMENT:-

1) Liquid or Acid test or Quick ratio : This is the ratio of liquid assets

to liquid liabilities with its most liquid assets. 1:1 is considered as

ideal ratio for a concern because it is wise to keep the liquid assets at

least equal to liquid liabilities at all times. Liquid assets are those asset

that are readily converted into cash and will include cash balances,

bills receivables, sundry debtors and short-term investments.

Inventories and prepaid expenses are not included in liquid assets

because the emphasis is on the ready availability of cash in case not

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 87

Page 88: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

included in liquid assets because the emphasis is on the ready

availability of cash in case of liquid assets. Liquid liabilities include

all items of current liabilities except bank overdraft.

This ratio is the ‘acid test’ of a concern’s financial soundness.

It is calculated as under:-

Liquid Ratio: Liquid Assets

Current or Liquid Liabilities

2) Absolute Liquid Ratio : Though receivables are generally more

liquid than inventories, there may be debts having doubt regarding

their stability in time. So to get an idea about the absolute liquidity of

a concern, both receivables and inventories are excluded from current

assets and only absolute liquid assets, cash in hand, cash at bank and

readily realizable securities are taken into consideration.

It is calculated as follows:

Absolute Liquid Ratio:-

Cash in hand\bank + short term marketable securities

Current Liabilities

The desirable norm of this ratio is 1:2

3) Liquid asset Working Capital : This ratio establishes the relationship

between liquid asset and current asset of the organization. It is used to

determine the quantum of liquid asset that is constituted in current

asset.

Liquid asset to Working Capital: Liquid Asset

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

4) Cash/Bank To Current Assets : This ratio shows the percentage of

cash and bank balance to current assets. The cash and bank balance is

important for meeting working capital. Cash and Bank balance to

current assets ratio indicates what amount of cash is locked in current

assets.

Cash/Bank to Current Assets:- Cash/Bank

Current Assets

5) Cash Turnover Ratio : It is a ratio between cash and cost of goods

sold or net sales. This ratio indicates the extent to which cash

resources are efficiently utilized by the organization.

Cash Turnover Ratio: Cost of Goods Sold

The standard for liquid ratio is considered to be 1:1. In all the years

i.e., in between 2007 and 2009, the company has managed to maintain its

liquid ratio above the standard level, where is recorded a highest ratio of

1.060:1 in 2009-10 and a lowest of 1.037:1 in 2007., a very low ratio is also

not considered as wise because it is going to affect the day-to-day activities

of the company.

organization to convert current asset quickly without loosing tits value. It

recorded a highest of 83% in the year 2007-08. As the company is

monitoring a very high percentage of current assets, we can say that its

ability to convert current asset to cash is high and it’s a good sign.

CONCLUSIONS

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 95

Page 96: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

FINDINGS: -

The company is maintaining a very high proportion of current assets

in total assets i.e. around 75%. In the year 2008-09, it was 92.19%

As the company’s current ratio is far below the standard level, it is

concluded that its short-term solvency position is very poor.

As the company’s net working capital turnover is quite high, it is

concluded that there is an efficient use of NWC to generate sales.

In the year 2009-10, the current assets are utilized efficiently to

generate sales.

As the company is maintaining a high working capital turnover ratio,

it is concluded that working capital/current assets are managed and

utilized more efficiently.

The liquidity of the organization is quite well since the organization is

maintaining Liquid ratio more than the ideal standard i.e. 1:1

Cash turnover ratio is showing a mixed trend. In the year 2009-10 the

cash reserve was efficiently utilized when compared to 2008-09

As the debtors are collected from time to time, we can say that the

company has sound collection policy.

In the year 2009-10, the stock is converted 1.05 times into sales,

which is far above the ideal level.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 96

Page 97: Project Report of KMF

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

SUGGESTIONS:-

The company’s absolute liquidity ratio in all the years is far below the

ideal level. So the firm should take steps to invest more in super quick

assets.

The company should take some measure to reduce manufacturing /

operating expenses so as to increase Gross Profit Margin which in

turn increases Net Profit Margin.

Company should take steps to increase current assets, as the position

of worse in all the years, which will improve the short-term solvency

position.

Lal Bahadur Shastri Govt First Grade College, Bangalore 97

A Study on Working Capital Management at KMF

CONCLUSIONS :-

The Mother dairy financial performance and working capital is good. As comparing last three years of balance sheet it is found that the profit is increased but the in the year 2007-08 it has increased due to many reasons and then the next year the profit is again increased. The overall financial and working capital position of Mother dairy is satisfactory but at the same time to make substantial growth the company has to utilize its full potential pertained to liquidity enhancement.

Mother Dairy is operating in Karnataka successfully from many years. They supply milk and other products in Karnataka. The financial position and its performance are sound.
