    interpret the current financial situation of that corporation.

    1.2 PURPOSE OF STUDY:

    Through this term paper "e "ant to gain practical &no"ledge of the financial

    aspects of a corporation through ratio anal#sis. The perspecti$e of such a report

    is to ma&e us familiar "ith the financial instruments along "ith ratio anal#sis to

    measure the financial situation of corporation.

    1.3 SCOPE OF THE STUDY:

    To accomplish the report "e ha$e been assigned to !ement Industr# "hich

    includes 'afarge urma !ement 'td as the base compan# and for industr#

    a$erage "e choose Meghna !ement !onfidence !ement and eidelberg

    !ement. *e use annual reports of these corporations to find out the financial

    situation of our base compan# through ration anal#sis comparing "ith the

    industr# a$erage.

    1.4 METHODOLOGY:

    To ac+uire data for our report primaril# "e use the annual reports of 'afarge

    urma !ement Meghna !ement !onfidence !ement and eidelberg !ement.

    The annual reports that "e use as our source are gi$en belo",

    'afarge urma !ement -nnual eport 200/ 200 200.

    Meghna !ement -nnual eport 200.

    !onfidence !ement -nnual eport 200.

    eidelberg !ement -nnual eport 200.

    *e ha$e also collected the necessar# and rele$ant data from different

    secondar# sources. These sources are,

    The limitations of the stud# are defined b# the e5tensi$e of the facts co$ered b#

    the stud# and those that left out. o"e$er these limitations can be presented in

    the follo"ing lines,

    The first limitation is the lac& of intellectual thought and anal#tical abilit#

    to ma&e it the most perfect one.

    ratio 0.12/ in 200/.

    In 200 the compan# has started impro$ing its asset management. Thus the

    recei$ables also in increased but 8O is ta&ing a long time to pa#ing the credit

    sale. -nd its li+uidit# of mone# is still lac&ed behind. -nd still the firm has to pa#

    a huge current liabilities or debt interest. Thus its ratio has come in a slight

    impro$ed "a# and it is 0.1/.

    6ut in 200 the compan# has managed its debt interest b# managing its current

    asset. 6ut as firm has paid huge amount of interest automaticall# the firm has

    In 200 fi5ed asset ratio increased to 0.71 times that means the compan# has

    been able to increase their sales and started to lo"er their in$estment in fi5ed

    assets. 6ut the score is not good enough because it is less than one times.

    In 200 fi5ed assets turno$er is 0.B1 times "hich indicates that it is graduall#

    increasing their sales but still it is belo" the industr# a$erage. The reason of lo"

    total asset turno$er is a problem "ith the asset categories composing total

    assets 3 in$entor# recei$ables or fi5ed assets. There is a problem "ith

    in$entor#. The firm is holding obsolete in$entor# and not selling in$entor# fast

    enough. *ith regard to accounts recei$able the firmJs collection period is

    fluctuating and credit accounts ma# be on the boo&s too long. Fi5ed assets such

    industr# a$erage. o the# definitel# ha$e li+uidit# problem. In asset

    management 'afargeAs position is not good. The# are lagging behind from the

    other companies in this industr#. Their in$entor# turno$er fi5ed asset turno$er

    and total asset turno$er are impro$ing e$er# #ear but good enough. There 8O

    is Dust as the industr# a$erage but it is fluctuating e$er# #ear. o the# ha$e poor

    asset management. The# are inefficient in managing current and fi5ed assets.

    The# are using a huge debt "hich is a great ris& of ban&ruptc# to the compan#.

    Their debt ratio is higher than the industr# a$erage. Times interest earned is

    belo" the industr# a$erage but it is impro$ing each #ear. In profitabilit# ratios

    O- is belo" industr# a$erage but O; and profit margin is abo$e industr#

    "hich means the# are tr#ing to impro$e their asset management and li+uidit#

    position. In mar&et ratios "e can see that the# ha$e a good position in 200 but

    in 200 it declined though the ratios are abo$e industr# a$erage. That means

    people are becoming less interested to the compan# than the pre$ious #ear. o

    to impro$e from the current situation the# need to impro$e their asset
