5. Ratio Analysis
A. Liquidity Ratios:
$$\textbf{(i)}\space \textbf{Current Ratio:} = \frac{\text{Current Assets}}{\text{Current Liablities}}$$
Current Assets = Current Investments + Inventories (excluding Loose Tools and Spare Parts) + Trade Receivables + Cash and Bank Balance + Short-term Loans and Advances + Other Current Assets
Current Liabilities = Short term borrowings + Trade payables + Other Current Liabilities + Short term
Provisions
(ii) Quick Ratio / Liquid Ratio / Acid Test Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Quick Assets}}{\text{Current \space Liablities}}$$
OR
$$=\\\frac{\text{All Current Assets - Inventories(excluding Loose Tools}\\ \space \text{Spare Parts}) - \text{Prepaid Expenses}}{\text{Current Liabilities}}$$
OR
$$=\frac{\text{Liquid Assets}}{\text{Current Liablities}}$$
B. Solvency Ratios:
(i) Debt to Equity Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Debt / Long Term Debt}}{\text{Equity/ shareholder's Funds}}$$
Debt = Long Term Borrowings + Long Term Provisions
Equity / Shareholders’ Funds = Share Capital + Reserves and Surplus
OR
= Non-Current Assets + (Current Assets – Current Liabilities) – Non-Current Liabilities
OR
= Non-Current Assets + Working Capital – Non-Current Liabilities
OR
= (Property, Plant & Equipment + Intangible Assets + Non-Current Investments + Long Term Loans and Advances) + Working Capital – (Long Term Borrowings + Long Term Provisions)
(ii) Proprietary Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{shareholders Funds/ Equity}}{\text{Total Assets}}$$
Total Assets = Non-Current Assets + Current Assets
= Property, Plant & Equipment + Intangible Assets + Non- Current Investments + Long Term Loans and Advances + Current Investments + Inventories (including Loose Tools and Spare Parts) + Trade Receivables + Cash and Bank Balance + Short-term Loans and Advances + Other Current Assets
(iii) Debt to Total Assets Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Debt}}{\text{Total Assets}}$$

$$=\frac{\text{Net Profit it before interest and taxes}}{\text{Fixed Interest Charges}}$$
Fixed Interest Charges includes interest on only long-term borrowings.
C. Activity Ratios:
(i) Trade Receivables Turnover Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Credit Revenue from Operations}}{\text{Average trade Receivables}}$$
Credit Revenue from Operations = Revenue from Operation – Cash Revenue from Operation
Average Trade Receivables:
$$=\\\frac{\text{Opening Trade Receivables + Closing Trade Receiables}}{2}$$
(ii) Trade Payables Turnover Ratio :
$$=\\\frac{\text{Net Credit Purchases}}{\text{Average Trade Payables}}\\\text{Average Trade Payables:}\\= \\\frac{\text{Opening Trade Payable + Closing Trade Payable}}{2}$$
(iii) Working Capital Turnover Ratio : $$=\frac{\text{Revenue from Operations}}{\text{Working Capital}}$$
(iv) Inventory Turnover Ratio :
$$=\frac{\text{Cost of revenue from Operations}}{\text{Average Inventory}}$$
Cost of Revenue from Operations = Revenue from Operations – Gross Profit
OR
Cost of Material Consumed (including direct expenses) + Change in inventories of WIP and Finished Goods
OR
Opening Inventory + Net Purchases+ Direct Expenses – Closing inventory
Average Inventory:
$$=\\\frac{\text{Opening Inventory + Closing Inventory}}{2}$$
D. Profitability Ratios:
(i) Gross Profit Ratio:
$$=\\\frac{\text{Gross Profit}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}}×100$$
Gross Profit = Revenue from Operations – Cost of Revenue from Operations/ Cost of Goods Sold
Cost of Revenue from Operations = Cost of Material Consumed (including direct expenses) + Change in inventories of WIP and Finished Goods.
OR
Opening Inventory + Net Purchases + Direct Expenses – Closing inventory
(ii) Net Profit Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Net Profit}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}}×100$$
Net Profit = Gross profit + Other Income – Indirect Expenses – Provision for Tax
(iii) Operating Ratio:
$$=\\ \frac{\text{Cost of Revenue from Operations} + \text{Operating Expenses}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}}\\×100$$
OR
$$\frac{\text{Cost of Revenue from Operations + Operating Expenses} - \text{Operating Income}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}}\\×100$$
Operating Expenses = Employee Benefit Expenses + Depreciation of Tangible Assets + Selling and Distribution Expenses+ Office and Administrative Expenses.
Operating Income = Commission received, Cash discount received
(iv) Operating Profit Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Net Operating Profit}}{\text{Revenue from Operations}}×100$$
Net operating profit = Net Profit after Tax+ Provision for Tax +Non-Operating Expenses – Non-Operating Incomes
OR
Gross Profit – Operating Expenses + Operating Incomes
Non-Operating Expenses = Finance Cost (Interest on Long-term Borrowings) + Loss on sale of Non- Current Assets + Amortisation of Intangible Assets + Writing off capital losses.
Non-Operating Incomes = Interest and Dividend Received on Investment + Profit on sale of Non- Current Assets.
(v) Earning per share:
$$=\\\frac{\text{Net Profit after Tax and Preference Dividend}}{\text{No. of Equity Shares}}$$
(vi) Price Earning Ratio:
$$=\frac{\text{Market Value of an Equity Share}}{\text{Earning per share}}$$
(vii) Return on Investment:
$$=\\\frac{\text{Net Profit before Interest and Tax}}{\text{Capital Employed}}×100$$
NOTE:
- Current Ratio includes Net Debtors (Gross Debtors – Provision for doubtful debts) while Trade Receivables Turnover Ratio includes Gross Debtors.
- Other Current Assets’ is restricted to Prepaid Expenses and Accrued Income.
- Capital employed = Shareholders’ Funds + Non-current Liabilities – Non-trade Investments

Other Income: (for a manufacturing company)
- Rent received (non- operating)
- Commission received (operating)
- Interest and Dividend Received (non- operating)
- Profit from Sale of Fixed Assets (non- operating
- Cash discount received (operating)
