Ordinary Portland cement Portland Blast Furnace Slag cement Portland Pozzolana cement Cement to European and Sri Lankan norms

ORDINARY PORTLAND CEMENT: Ordinary Portland cement is the most commonly used
cement for a wide range of applications. These applications cover dry-lean mixes, generalpurpose ready-mixes, and even high strength pre-cast and pre-stressed concrete.

PORTLAND BLAST FURNACE SLAG CEMENT: Portland blast-furnace slag cement

contains up to 70 per cent of finely ground, granulated blast-furnace slag, a non-metallic product consisting essentially of silicates and alumino-silicates of calcium. Slag brings with it the advantage of the energy invested in the slag making. Grinding slag for cement replacement takes only 25 per cent of the energy needed to manufacture Portland cement. Using slag cement to replace a portion of Portland cement in a concrete mixture is a useful method to make concrete better and more consistent. Portland blast-furnace slag cement has a lighter colour, better concrete workability, easier finishability, higher compressive and flexural strength, lower permeability, improved resistance to aggressive chemicals and more consistent plastic and hardened consistency.

PORTLAND POZZOLANA CEMENT: Portland Pozzolana cement is ordinary Portland

cement blended with Pozzolanic materials (power-station fly ash, burnt clays, ash from burnt plant material or silicious earths), either together or separately. Portland clinker is ground with gypsum and Pozzolanic materials which, though they do not have cementing properties in themselves, combine chemically with Portland cement in the presence of water to form extra strong cementing material which resists wet cracking, thermal cracking and has a high degree of cohesion and workability in concrete and mortar.

CASH FLOW STATEMENT

It is a statement showing inflow cash and out flow of cash during the last year and as a result the balance of cash at the end of the year, is known as Cash Flow Statement. This statement helps management to know the actual liquid position or position of cash on hand and also to ascertain whether the business is able to get enough cash to meet the liabilities as and when they arise. The cash inflows and cash outflows are to be shown under three headings: Cash Flows from operating Activities Cash Flows from Investing Activities Cash Flow from Financing Activities

RATIO ANALYSIS

Management should be interested in knowing financial strengths of the firm to make the best use of it and to be able to spot out financial weaknesses of the firm to take suitable corrective actions. Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strengths and weaknesses of the firm by properly establishing relationships between the items of the balance sheet and the profit and loss account. Financial analysis can be undertaken by management of the firm or by parties outside the firm like owners, creditors, investors and others. Ratio Analysis is a powerful tool of financial analysis.

WHAT IS RATIO?
A ratio is defined as "the indicated quotient of two mathematical expressions" and as "the relationship between two or more things". The relationship between two accounting figures expressed mathematically is known as 'financial ratio'. Rations help to summaries large quantities of financial data and to make qualitative judgment about the firm's financial performance. It measures the firm's liquidity. The point to note is that a ratio reflecting a quantitative relationship helps to form a qualitative judgment.

CLASSIFICATION OF RATIOS
The parties interested in financial analysis are short and long term creditors, owners and management. Short term creditors main interest is I the liquidity position or short term solvency of the firm. Long term creditors on the other hand are more interested in the long term solvency and profitability of the firm. Similarly, owners concentrate on the firm's profitability and financial condition. Management is interested in evaluating every aspect of the firm's performance. They are classified into 4 categories:

Liquidity Ratios Leverage Ratios Activity Ratios Profitability Ratios

Page | 11

LIQUIDITY RATIOS
It is extremely essential for a firm to be able to meet its obligation as they become due. Liquidity ratios measures the ability of the firm to meet its current obligations in fact, analysis of liquidity needs the preparation of cash budgets and cash and fund flow statements; but liquidity ratios, by establishing a relationship between cash and other current assets to current obligations, provide a quick measure of liquidity.

LEVERAGE RATIOS
The second category of financial ratios is leverage or capital structure ratios. The long-term creditors would judge the soundness of a firm on the basis of the long-term financial strength measured in terms of its ability to pay the interest regularly as well as repay the installment of the principal on due dates on in one lump sum at the time of maturity.

PROFITABILITY RATIOS
A company should earn profits to survive and grow over a long period of time. Profits are essential but it would be wrong to assume that every action initiated by management of a company should be aimed at maximizing profits, irrespective of social consequences. Profit is the difference between revenues and expenses over a period of time. Profit is the ultimate output of a company and it will have no future if it fails to make sufficient profits. Generally, there are two types of profitability ratios: 1. Profitability in relation to sales. 2. Profitability in relation to investment.

ACTIVITY RATIOS
The turn over ratios measure the efficiency with which assets are being used in business. These ratios show how fast the assets are being turned in to sales. The turnover ratio is a test of relationship between sales and the various assets of the firm like stock, debtors, current assets, fixed assets or total assets.

Page | 12

CURRENT RATIO This ratio establishes a relationship between current assets and current liabilities. The current ratio is a measure of firm's short term solvency. Current Ratio = Current Assets Current Liabilities YEAR CURRENT RATIO 2011 0.67 2010 0.67 2009 0.59 2008 0.58 2007 0.71 2006 0.67 2005 0.68 2004 0.60

Interpretation: In a case of the year 2011, the current ratio was 0.67:1. It implies that for every one rupee of current liabilities, current assets of 0.67 rupees are available to meet them. The current ratio for the year 2009 and 2008 are 0.59:1 and 0.58:1 respectively. As compared to the ideal ratio (2:1), the liquidity position is no better because the company has large amount of creditors. In short the company does not have enough working capital to meet their day to day requirements.

QUICK RATIO Quick ratio establishes a relationship between quick or liquid, assets and current liabilities. It is also known as acid test ratio. Quick Ratio = (Current Assets Inventory) Current Liabilities YEAR QUICK RATIO 2011 0.34 2010 0.30 2009 0.34 2008 0.38 2007 0.40 2006 0.34 2005 0.54 2004 0.46

Interpretation: It believed that liquid assets should at least cover the liquid liabilities i.e. the ratio should be 1:1. The quick ratio computed above for the year 2011 is 0.34:1, which is less than half of the ideal ratio. This is because company has large amount of inventories. In nutshell the company has less than the ideal quick ratio in last three years. The current ratio has remained almost same over the years.

DEBT EQUITY RATIO The relationship between borrowed funds and owners capital is a popular measure of the long term financial solvency of a firm. This relationship is shown by the debt-equity ratio. Debt Equity Ratio = Total Debt Net Worth YEAR DEBT EQUITY RATIO 2011 0.39 2010 0.35 2009 0.59 2008 0.65 2007 0.90 2006 1.40 2005 1.44 2004 1.45

Interpretation: The debt-equity ratio reflects the relative contribution of creditors and owners of the firm. The ratio for the year 2011 is 0.39 that means the firm has total debt of Rs.0.39 against each rupee of owners fund; it also suggests that the outside have less amount of claim in the firm. The ratio for the year 2009 is 0.59 that mean the firm has total debt of Rs.0.59 against each rupee of owners fund. And for the year 2005 the debt -equity ratio is 1.44 which is higher than the previous six years. Because of high debt equity ratio, the share holders of the company can get the benefit of trading on equity. But over the years the ratio has reduced which means which is not in favor of the shareholder .

INTEREST COVERAGE RATIO Interest coverage ratio is used to measure a company's earnings relative to the amount of interest that it pays. The interest coverage ratio is considered to be a financial leverage ratio in that it analyzes one aspect of a company's financial viability regarding its debt.
