Executive summery
The project is about ratio analysis in Austin engineering company limited. In project report, effect of source of the finance is studied specially the relationship of different balancesheet and P/L ratio. The project report is also showing various departments of AEC viz. Marketing Department, Finance Department, Service Department and Human Resource Department. and its function. The main research objective is to show that whether there is any relationship between capital structure and earning of the company. The main financial goal of any company is to maximize total profit and maximize the wealth of the share holder. But that can be achieve only when company earn the sufficient amount of the profit. Ratio analysis play important role in maximizing profit. For the research purpose secondary data is used. And that is collected from the annual report of the company and from the companys manager some of the data also collected from the internet from the companys website. The key finding of the report is that there is a relationship between different ratio of the company. One message from the report is that if company able to raise fund which funds cost is less than rate of return on investment than company should go for it .
LITERATURE REVEIW
Acknowledgments: Our thanks are due to Manuel Garcia-Ayuso Covarsi of the University of Sevilla, McDonald and Morris Spain, Bird and McHugh (1977), for his constructive comments. Published as Timo Salmi and Teppo Martikainen (1994), "A Review of the Theoretical and Empirical Basis of Financial Ratio Analysis", The Finnish Journal of Business Economics 4/94, 426-448. Also published on the World Wide Web as http://www.uwasa.fi/~ts/ejre/ejre.html Financial ratios are widely used for modelling purposes both by practitioners and researchers. The firm involves many interested parties, like the owners, management, personnel, customers, suppliers, competitors, regulatory agencies, and academics, each having their views in applying financial statement analysis in their evaluations. Practitioners use financial ratios, for instance, to forecast the future success of companies, while the researchers' main interest has been to develop models exploiting these ratios. Many distinct areas of research involving financial ratios can be discerned. Historically one can observe several major themes in the financial analysis literature. There is overlapping in the observable themes, and they do not necessarily coincide with what theoretically might be the best founded areas, ex post. The existing themes include
McDonald and Morris (1984, 1985) : - present the first extensive empirical studies of the statistical validity of the financial ratio method. The authors use three models with two samples, one with a single industry the other with one randomly selected firm from each (four-digit SIC) industry branch to investigate the implications of homogeneity on proportionality. The first model is the traditional model for replacement of financial ratios by bivariate regression, with intercept Y(i) = a + bX(i) + e(i). The above model is central in this area. It is characteristic that the testing for proportionality is considered in terms of testing the hypothesis H0: a = 0. Barnes (1986) points out for statistical testing that the residual is typically heteroscedastic. For a discussion also see Garcia-Ayuso (1994). The second model in McDonald and Morris is Y(i) = b'X(i) + e'(i) that is without the intercept to tackle heteroscedasticity. Dropping the intercept from the model is not always enough to treat the heteroscedasticity (see Berry and Nix, 1991). The third model applies a (Box-Cox) transformation on the first model to tackle non-
linearities. While they find support for financial ratio analysis for comparisons within industry branches, in inter-industry comparisons proportionality of financial ratios is not supported. Bird and McHugh (1977) : - adopt an efficient Shapiro-Wilk small-sample test for the normality of financial ratios for an Australian sample of five ratios over six years. Like Deakin they find in their independent study that normality is transient across financial ratios and time. They also study the adjustment of the financial ratios towards industry means which is a different area of FRA research. Bougen and Drury (1980) also suggest non-normality based on a cross-section of 700 UK firms. The results indicating non-normality of financial ratio distributions have led researchers into looking for methods of restoring normality to warrant standard parametric statistical analyses. Frecka and Hopwood (1983) observe that removing outliers and applying transformations in a large Compustat sample covering 1950-79 restored normality in the same financial ratios as tackled by Deakin (1976). They point out that if the ratios follow the gamma distribution, the square root transformation makes the distribution approximately normal. The gamma distribution is compatible with ratios having a technical lower limit of zero. There is, however, a certain degree of circularity in their approach, since instead of identifying the underlying causes of the outliers they employ a mechanistic statistical approach to identify and remove the outliers from the tails of the financial ratio distributions.

Ltd. can be analyzed with the help of four main departments viz. production department, personnel department, financial department and marketing department are as given in the report. AUSTIN ENGINEERING COMPANY LTD., is having the largest range of bearing among the manufactures of it in Asia and i.e. 4000 types of bearings. It has also the largest range in size of bearing. Among them, the smallest is having 10mm ID (Inner Diameter) and 2000mm OD (Outer Diameter). They are also developing 7-8 designs per month. The companys turnover is 42-50 crores.
The firm was established in the year of 1973. at that time a turn of 5 top and qualified engineers decided to produce a high quality bearing. It was started by Mr. N.C.Vadgama, Mr. R.N.Bhambhania. Mr. S.M.Thanki, Mr. Bhogayta, Mr. G,B.Modha partnership firm. At that time its name was ACCURATE ENGINEERING COMPANY as. On 27th July, 1978 due to continuous development and increment in demand of bearing, it was converted into Private Limited Company. The company at that time was located at G.I.D.C. Estate in Junagadh city. The growth and development kept on increasing and on 2nd November, 1985 this company was converted into Public Ltd. Co. under the name AEC Ltd. and purchases the trademark aec in the year 1994. Due to some problem such as inappropriate place for expansion, this company has established 2nd unit at Patla, a village which is 25 k.m. far away from Junagadh on 15th February, 1987. It was under developed industrial area so they decided to locate their industry at Patala. In the very beginning the company was producing only 40 to 50 varieties of bearings. At present the company is producing 4500 varieties of bearings. The initial company invest was 530794 and production capacity was 41900 piece p.a. At present, production achieved is 20,00,000 piece p.a. which was 18,50,000 piece in previous year. The present invest is 25,14,87,000.

INTRODUCTION
There are four functional areas in a business organization, namely finance, personnel, and marketing. Production is the basic activity of all industrial units. All other activities revolving around this activity. The end of the production activity is the creation of goods and services for the step conversion of one form of material into another either chemically or mechanically. This is done in the factories which have manufacturing process. The basic input of the operation process are men, machines, plant, services and the methods. The product if the mine, farm and forest are used as raw material on which the processing is done to creat and enhance the firm utility.
RAW MATERIAL
The first matter related with production is the availability of raw material. For the production of high quality bearing Austin Engineering Company Ltd. requires following types of raw material. Steel wire Steel ball Rollers Races Steel tube This has to reach big order of export market and big original equipment manufacturers, so company kept six month inventory for raw material to supply regularly. Main suppliers in India are : Mahindra and Mahindra ltd. India steel less metal tube ltd. Needumra industry ltd. Specific steel ltd.
Austin Engineering Company Ltd. purchases its raw material from abroad also. They purchase raw material from Germany and USA also.
MATERIAL STORAGE
Man, material, money etc. are the basic elements required to produce any product. Among them, material i.e. raw material is the thing by which the whole production process stats. So the procurement of raw material plays an important role here. Here, when we talk about Austin Engineering Company Ltd. it purchases its raw material from domestic as well as international units. The raw materials are bought from different places of Junagadh, They store these raw materials in store room and when required they inspect and test them in terms fitness for further production process which are according to purchase order.
PRODUCTION PROCESS
Manufacturing process is conducted to produce or manufacturing the product. Followings are main stages of manufacturing process. 1. Material stage Raw materials are steel bars, steel wire, steel tubes and rollers etc. This company has to reach big orders of export market and big original equipment manufactures, so company kept six month inventory for raw material and has make contract with their suppliers of raw materials to supply regularly. 2. Turning, Races and Rollers This is the second step for manufacturing the proper bearing from the raw material to finished product. In this stage, trained workers turn races and rollers in required size and then it is transferred to main unit. 3. Heat Treatment This is the third stage where all the races and rollers are given heat through electric furnace at 845c to 855c through which defective pieces are removed. It means this testing are done to measure the capacity of the products. 4. Grinding of races and rollers This is fourth step, after heat treatment, the part of races and rollers are refined. Inner and outer part of races and rollers are given through the grinding machine. 5. Tapping, Happing and Super finished
In this stage, there are checking of rollers and races because it has single mistakes of races and rollers. If any races and rollers are defective that piece is tapped and happed. Then, the super finishing will be done these are done through their respective machine.
6. Inspection and Graiding After the procedure of making the bearing, all the races are inspected by inspection department and then after grade fixed by the company. The precious sample is gone for mass production. 7. Assembling, Cleaning, Oiling, Packing There are separate department for making of different kinds of bearings are managed its size and quality and then this bearings are assembled. After the assembling of the bearing is done, then the bearing finally goes at packing department where it has given the Trade mark Austin Engineering Company Ltd. 8. Storage and Dispatch After passing through all the above stage, the finished products are stores in godown, from where they are dispatch as per the order.
PRODUCTION CAPACITY

Production capacity of Austin Engineering Company Ltd. is as follows. Installed capacity At the time of installing plant, the capacity that is installed is called installed capacity. It is determined by on the basis of capacity as indicated by suppliers plant and machinery in technical quotient. Austin Engineering Company Ltd.s installed capacity: 3500 pieces per day. Utilized capacity This is the actual output achieved during a particular time period. The actual output may be less than the rated output because of short range factors such as actual demand, employee absenteeism, labour inefficiency and low productivity levels. Austin Engineering Company Ltd.s utilized capacity : 3500 pieces per day.
QUALITY ASSURANCE
Quality may be defined as the sum of total of features of a product which influence its ability to satisfy given demand. Basically the quality of product and service is not defined or determined by production firms, it is determined by customers. The quality of the product and service is a customers perception of the degree to which the products or service meets his/her expectation.

MARKETING DEPARTMENT
A.) INTRODUCTION
Marketing is the performance of the business activities that directs the flow of goods and services from producer to the consumer in the process of distribution. According to CUNDIFF and STEEL,
Marketing is the managerial process by which products are matched through which consumer is enable to use and enjoy the product.
According to Paul mazur,
Marketing is a social and managerial process that involves identifying unsatisfied need or wants of consumer, producing goods or services to satisfy those needs or wants, determining appropriate price, promotion and distribution and maintaining relation with market. In todays modern era each & every firm gives priority to have a different marketing department.
Marketing involves the activities such as advertising, publishing, market research, distribution aspect, sales promotion etc.
Indirect In AEC, they are producing bearing & i.e. industrial goods. So in this case, direct channel will be more effective than indirect channel. So the company use direct channel of distribution & i.e. manufacturer to consumer.
2. Consumer demand or product oriented approach. AEC has accepted the consumer demand market segmentation. National and international marketing is also done. The dealers through which this company marketed its products are in India and its original equipment manufacturers are: Bharat Heavy Electric Ltd. Tata Electric & Locomotive Co. Ltd. Voltas Ltd. Kirloskar Electric Co. Ltd.
H.) COMPETITION
Competition has increased in almost every field now days. A healthy competition may beneficial but cut throat competition may create hazardous effect on the company. Competition affects the customers, sales figures & other aspects of marketing. As far as AEC faces no close competition because it is having the largest range of bearings in Asia. . The competitors are: SKF NBC FAG
J)
SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY
Each and every unit is responsible towards the society. Since business operates in society, it cannot survive and grow unless it meets the need of the society. It is an important part of its objectives to fulfill its obligations to the society. AEC is also responsible to the society. It has accepted the objective of avoidance of antisocial practices. The company also provides employment to the unemployed persons. Under antisocial practice it does not overcharge its customers and its products do not pollute the environment.
SWOT ANALYSIS SWOT is a good tool for a manager, like a thermometer and a stethoscope for a doctor.
The SWOT analysis for AEC Limited is: S- Concentrates on your STRANGTH. It enables to put your best foot forward. STRENGTH: Good brand image. Large scale refining. Fast development Diversified and top quality asset base. Associated with Consultant University involved in R n D department. Consumer satisfaction. Dedicated workforce.

Interference of the government. Transportation cost. Heavy import of raw-material. Raw material prices.
O- Evaluate your OPPORTUNITIES. Opportunities are plenty even in adversity. Only one has to evaluate them for what they are. OPPORTUNITIES: Advertising to increase sales. expansion
T- Research your THREAT. Threat are like tickling time bongs, defuse them by anticipating and taking preventive actions.
THREATS: Increase price of raw material in inter national market, causes variation in domestic market. Competition from the multinational companies. Fixed financial charges.
FINANCE DEPARTMEN
A.) INTRODUCTION
All the functions of management like personnel, production; marketing etc. requires finance for implementation. Financial management is that activity which is concerned with planning, improving and controlling of the firms financial resources. Prof. DHAVAL has rightly said Money is the pivot around which all economic activities cluster Finance in the modern business world is the life of blood of a business. it is said that :-
Finance plays a very important role in any type of firm. From the initial stage onwards money is needed for the formation registration of the firm, listing of firm. Finance is needed for making many necessary documents. Finance consists of procuring funds, managing and utilizing them efficiently in order to maximum the profit which is the ultimate goal of any organization. In Austin Engineering Co. Ltd., the capital is procured by issuing equity shares. The authorized capital is 40,00,000 equity shares of Rs. 10 each. Out of which issued, subscribed and paid up shares are 35,11,250 equity shares of Rs. 10 each fully paid up. The secured loan of AEC is of Rs.29,348,582 from deferred payment loan from Bank Of Baroda and Rs. 25,055,433 from working capital loan from Bank of Baroda for year 2008-2009.
B) FINANCIAL PLANNING
Financial planning refers to the planning regarding procurement, utilization and control of funds required by the firm. The decisions regarding planning of these inter related financial areas are taken under this. The areas are: Investment decision long term as well as current assets Financing decision Dividend Policy decision The planning is the first step and so other steps in financial management are dependent in it. So it is very important to plan it efficiently so that it will be beneficial for the firm in future. In Austin, the financial planning is done on the basis of time period. Thus, there are three types of financial planning in the company: short term, medium term and long term. Short term planning is done for one year, medium term is for five years and ling term is for ten years. Short term planning is used to fulfill the requirements of day to day expenses and production, medium term is used to increase working capital and funds to replace the machines and long term planning is used for expansion and modernization.
Period 1 5 10
Purposes Production and day to day expenses To increase working capital and funds to replace machines Expansion and modernization
D.)SOURCES OF FINANCE
Financial management involves the three important areas: investment decision, financing decision and dividend policy decision. Among them, the investment decision is the first step to be taken up by the owners. This involves the decisions regarding the procurement of funds. So it is necessary to study the different sources of finance available. This decides the cost of capital. So the sources you select to procure the funds should be such that they would minimize the cost of capital. The terms and conditions of different institutions should be studied and compared while taking the decision about borrowed capital. The balance between owned and borrowed capital should also be kept in mind at that time. At the initial stage of business firm, generally capital is brought by the owner and some outside institutions, banks etc. But when the business starts growing, the reinvestment of profits becomes also an important source of capital. Here, Austin is a public limited company. So it is having share capital as a major source of finance. Some borrowed capital is also brought in the company. Moreover, now the retained earnings have also become an important source of finance for the company. The sources of finance are as under: Equity Share Capital Bank of Baroda ICICI Bank Retained earnings HDFC Bank
E.)CAPITALIZAITON
Capitalization means total among of long term funds available to the company which includes shares and debentures, issued by the company and also long term loans taken from financial institutions. As far as earned profits remained to be distributed are concerned or it is necessary to classify them as either capital surplus or revenue surplus. The amount of capitalization should be only that much which can be justified by the profits and by the normal rate of return for the industry. Over Capitalization: A company is said to be over capitalized if its earnings are less in relation to its capital investment. The company may be having a low earning capacity. Thus, it results in over capitalization. Under Capitalization: A company is said to be undercapitalized if its earnings are more in relation to its capital investment. Under capitalization is an indication of effective and proper utilization of funds employed in the business. Under capitalization indicates sound financial position and good management of the company. Austins earnings are Rs. 3, 73, 10,646 and investment is Rs. 12, 47, 61,492. Thus, earnings are less than investment. So we can say that the company is over capitalized.
METHODOLOGY The methodology to be adopted for the project is explained as under: 1. The initial step of the project was studying about the company and then evaluating the financial position of the company on the basis of ratio analysis. 2. Comparing the firms financial position with respect to its previous years performance with the help of following ratios Return on investment ratios. Liquidity ratios. Resources efficiency or turnover ratios. Profitability ratios Du Pont analysis. Valuation or capital market ratios.
3. The project will focus on the study of overall performance analysis at the organizations, for which the following study and analysis will be undertaken: i) This project is aimed to calculating the financial ratios of the company ii) It would include the ratio analysis of the financial statement so that the profitability and liquidity trade off can be analyzed.
SECONDARY SOURCES:
Data was collected from documents, records and files of the company. Data was gathered from the annual reports of the company. Data was collected from company website. SCHEDULE The complete project will be for duration of 6 weeks. The project has been divided into 2 stages with approximate time period allotted to each stage. Both the stages along with their approximate timelines are as follows:
STAGE 1 (APPROX 3 WEEKS) The study of companys financial position by doing ratio analysis of the financial statement so that the profitability and liquidity condition of the organization can be studied closely. STAGE 2 (APPROX 3 WEEKS) The study of the overall financial performance of the company and analysis of the findings and interpreting thereof.
Studying the financial performance of Austin Engineering Company ltd and comparing it with previous years performance. It become quite difficult rather impossible to make judgment about the position of any business by way of analyzing the financial statements of one year. To get a view about the business happiness, the past data of some year relating to the problem are studied and trend is determined. The present study covers a period of years from 2006 2010. A large period may prove inconvenient while a short period would not give desired results. A period of four to six years is to be considered to be the optimum one. The present study has been undertaken to analyze the Ratio analysis is being managed in the company and how far it contributes to the overall objective of maximization of shareholders wealth and the organization wealth.
LIMITATIONS In spite of my continued efforts to make the project as accurate and wide in scope as possible, certain limitations are becoming evident while implementing the project. These limitations cannot be removed and have to be accepted as permanent constraints in implementing the project. Some limitations, which have been identified, by me are: 1. Generalizations and calculated assumptions had to be made in some areas while analyzing the financial statements, ratios etc. due to non-availability of complete information. 2. The segment wise and product wise study of the various product segments and units of the company have been excluded from the scope of the project due to data and time constraints. 3. The study is limited to the five years review period from 2006-2010 4. Time is one of the limiting factors of the study. The duration of the training is only 6 weeks which is too short to study the organization. 5. The executives were hesitant to reveal complete information since it was confidential. 6. Executives were unaware of many terms related to Financial Analysis while asking to them.
IMPORTANCE OF RATIO ANALYSIS: Ratio analysis of a firms financial statements is of interest to a number of parties, mainly, shareholders, creditors, financial executive etc. the importance of ratio analysis are discussed below in brief: They act as an index of the efficiency of the enterprise. As such Ratio analysis helps in making effective control of the business Ratio analysis is an effective instrument which, when properly
they serve as an instrument of management control. measuring performance control of cost etc. profitability. The communications by the use of simplified and summarized ratios are more easy and understandable. used, is useful to assess important characteristics of business liquidity, solvency,
utilization of the assets and that is why it is called surveyor of efficiency. They help management in decision making. Ratio highlights the factors associated with successful and unsuccessful firms. If comparison shows an unfavorable variance, corrective action can be initiated. Thus, it helps the management to take corrective action. Ratio analysis is an invaluable aid to management in the discharge They point out firms liquidity position to meet its short term It facilitates the management to know whether the firms financial of its basic function such as planning, forecasting, control etc. obligations and long term solvency. position is improving or deteriorating by setting a trend with the help of ratios.
quantitative factors which may generally influence the conclusions derived, are ignored which computing ratios. A signal ratio would not be able to convey anything. Ratio can be When inter firm comparison is made they differ substantially in useful only when they are computed in a deficient large number. age, size, nature of product etc. At inter firm comparison, these factors are not considered. Therefore, ratio analysis cannot give satisfactory results. Ratio analysis is use for limited purpose i.e. o For applying judgment o For indicators of bad or good management

Therefore, ratios based on such figures are nor reliable. It should be clearly noted that ratio are only tools and personal Ratios are computed on the bias of past result. Past is not indictor judgment of analyst is more important. of future. Ratios computed from historical data are used for predicting and projecting the likely events in the future. analysis. Due to changes in price level of various years, comparison of ratios of such years cannot give correct conclusions. Ratios are only post mortem of what has happened between two balance sheet dates. The position in the interim period is not reveled by ratio

An ideal current ratio is 2:1 considered as a safe margin of solvency 2:1 i.e. the current assets are two times the current liabilities. When ratio is 2:1. The creditors will be able to get their payments in full. The ideal ratio considered to be 2: 1. The above calculation shows that the current ratio of the company is 2.6:1, 2.47:1,2.98:1, in the year March 2008, March 2009 & March 2010 respectively. Here companies good position in all three years.

A High Ratio shows a large share of financing by the creditor of the firm a low ratio implies smaller claim of creditor. If the Debt-equity ratio is high the owners are putting up relatively less money of their own. It is dinger signal for the creditors. Here, Debt equity Ratio is 63% in 2008 and 54% in 2009 and 34% in 2010, which shows good financial position of company.
