well designed and implemented working capital management is e(pected to contribute
positively to the creation of a companyAs value. The purpose of this pro)ect is to analysis and
interpretation. My pro)ect is related to Bnalysis of Working Capital Management CWCMD and
its impact on the performance of JKM INFRA PROJECTS LIMITED /JIPL0 during the last
few years.
My aims at learning various facets of working capital management at JIPL by studying the day
to day activities at its ,#C division which mainly deals in Infrastructure Developments
CConstruction of roads ' highways for 3ational 9ighways uthority of India C39ID and "tate
#WDs and e(ecution of irrigation pro)ects for irrigation departmentsD.
These pro)ects also draws a comparison between JIPL and other prominent players active in the
infrastructure segment and tries to find out the reasons playing an active role behind the
numerouno status of JIPL in the infrastructure segment. Working capital management involves
not only managing the different components of the current assets! but also managing the current
liabilities! or to be more precise! financing the current assets.
company is reEuired to maintain a balance between liEuidity and profitability while conducting
its day to day operations. 7iEuidity is a precondition to ensure that firms are able to meet its
short%term obligations and its continued flow can be guaranteed from a profitable venture. The
importance of cash as an indicator of continuing financial health should not be surprising in view
of its crucial role within the business. This reEuires that business must be run both efficiently and
profitably. In the process! an asset%liability mismatch may occur which may increase companyAs
profitability in the short run but at a risk of its insolvency. 4n the other hand! too much focus on
liEuidity will be at the e(pense of profitability.
During my study! I understand that there are three main areas in working capital management
and the pro)ect focuses on the followingF
0eceivables management
Cash management
Inventory management
By using the financial statements of 6I#7! an analysis has been carried out to understand the
trends that have been followed. lso a comparative study is carried out with respect to the v
companyAs competitors to further understand its position in the market .Based on the above
study! certain recommendations are made. The financial statements Cmainly balance sheet along
with profit + loss accountsD are used to work out various ratios which help us in better
understanding the organi&ationAs working capital management.
The key variables used in the analysis are inventories days! accounts receivables days! accounts
payable days and cash conversion cycle. These ratios are then compared with industryAs standard
to get an insight to understand the nuances of the working of the organi&ation.
INTROD5CTION
Wor%in& Ca,ital-
Working capital in simple terms means the amount of funds that a company reEuires for
financing its day %to% day operations. Working Capital includes the current assets and current
liabilities areas of the balance sheet.
Working Capital Management is concerned with the problems that arise in attempting to manage
the current assets! the current liabilities and the interrelationship that e(ists between them.
Working Capital Management is the process of planning and controlling the level and mi( of
current assets of the firm as well as financing these assets. nalysis of working capital is of
ma)or importance to internal and e(ternal analysis because it is closely related to the current day
%to% day operations.
Concept of Working CapitalF%
There are two concepts of working capitalsF %
2. $ross Working capitalF % It means the current assets which represent the proportion of
investment that circulates from one form to another in the ordinary conduct of business.
5. 3et Working CapitalF % It is the difference between current assets and current liabilities
or alternatively the portion of current assets financed with long%term funds.
Constituents of Current ssetsF%
2. Cash in hand and cash at bank.
5. Bill receivables.

5. "hort term loans! advances and deposits.
8. Dividends payable.
@. Bank overdraft.
=. #rovision for ta(ation.
>. "undry Creditors.
?. Bills payable.
The gross concept is sometimes preferred to the concept of working capital for the following
reasonsF
2. It enables the enterprise to correct amount of working capital at correct time.
5. ,very management is more interested in total current assets with which it has to operate then
the source from where it is made available.
8. It take into consideration of the fact every increase in the funds of the enterprise would
increase its working capital. The net working capital concept! 9owever! is also important for
following reasonsF
ItAs a Eualitative concept! which indicates the firmAs ability to meet its operating e(penses and
short term liabilities.
It indicates the margin of protection available to the short term creditors.
It is an indicator of the financial soundness of enterprise.
It suggests the need of financing a part of working capital reEuirement out of the permanent
sources of funds.

Working capital may be classified in two waysF
4n the basis of concept.
4n the basis of time.

working capital. 4n the basis of time! working capital may be classified asF
#ermanent or *i(ed working capital.
Temporary or variable working capital.

#ermanent or fi(ed working capital is minimum amount which is reEuired to ensure effective
utili&ation of fi(ed facilities and for maintaining the circulation of current assets. ,very firm has
to maintain a minimum level of raw material! work% in%process! finished goods and cash balance.
This minimum level of current assets is called permanent or fi(ed working capital as this part of
working is permanently blocked in current assets. s the business grow the reEuirements
of working capital also increases due to increase in current assets.

Temporary or variable working capital is the amount of working capital which is necessary to
meet the seasonal demands and some special necessities. /ariable working capital can further be
categori&ed as seasonal working capital and special working capital. The capital necessary to
meet the seasonal need of the enterprise is called seasonal working capital. "pecial working
capital is that part of working capital which is reEuired to meet special demands.
Temporary working capital differs from permanent working capital in the sense that is reEuired
for short periods and cannot be permanently employed profitably in the business.

manage the current assets and current liabilities of a firm in such a way that a satisfactory level
of working capital is maintained! i.e. it is neither adeEuate nor e(cessive as both the situations

Anal#sis-
There has been a decline in 04WC between the two years J it reduces 5<Q during 5<2<%22. This
situation arises because of increase in current liabilities in past years as company is having
proposal of lots of investment due to which company is financing its pro)ect and there is less

An
al#sis-
The current ratio is the measure of whether a company has enough short%term assets to cover its
short%term debt and is inde( of strength of working capital. nything below 2 indicates negative
W'C Cworking capitalD. While anything over 5 means that the company is not investing e(cess
assets. ratio of greater than one means that the firm has more current assets then current
claims. Current ratio of the company has increased from 5.2? in 1ear 5<22%25 to 5.@8 in 1ear
5<2<%22. Current 0atio of the company depicts that for every 0e.2 worth of current liability there
are assets worth 0s.5.@8. The company has sufficient liEuidity as the ratio is increasing. This
year there is an increase in ratio due to almost double inventory level in current year in
comparison with previous year.
S$&&estions-
*irstly the company should try to increase their inventory levels as money gets blocked.
In order to increase current ratio current assets should be increased. If we look into the
detailed schedule of current assets then we can find out that ma)or portion of current assets is
due to debtors and inventories.
Company should make market survey and should decide first that what should be the
optimum amount of finished goods so that ma)or portion of it can be sold off in the market.
This will help in reducing the locking of funds or working capital in the finished goods.

Anal#sis-
cid test ratio is a more rigorous test of liEuidity than the current ratio and when used in
con)unction with it! gives a better picture of the firm s ability to meet its short%term debts out of
short%term assets. This ratio is used to determine risk that is not detected by the Working Capital
ratio. Euick or liEuid ratio of 2F2 is considered as satisfactory as the firm can easily or readily
meets all of its current liabilities. 9ere 6I#7 have its last year ratings of which is constant from
last three years! which indicates company is not having satisfactory financial position and not
able to pay its current liabilities and should be looked at with e(treme care and also implies that
current assets are highly dependent on inventory.

JKM In!ra Pro3ects Li(ited liEuidity position had worsened when looked at its current ratio.
The acid test ratio has fallen from 5<22 to 5<25. Current assets might not be that liEuid since
most of them are debtors. The fact that the differences between the current and acid test ratio is
around.@! which is large! tells us that the JKM In!ra Pro3ects Li(ited stocks are large. This is a
huge level of stock holding. dditionally! the acid test ratio has decreased over the three%year

s cash is being the most liEuid asset! Euoted investment has been taken as marketable
securities. In our case the company is showing an increasing trend but still it is not a favorable
cash ratio. *rom the above calculation it is clear that companyAs cash ratio had remained very
low. It is the notable point for the company as its current liabilities are much higher than the cash
in hand. It can create problems in the future payments of current liabilities. Ma)or portion of
companyAs current assets goes to inventory and debtors! which only increase the carrying cost.
Company need to reduce these assets to their optimum level.

INTERPRETATION /RATIO ANALYSIS0-
The utili&ation rate of net working capital as depicted by working capital turnover ratio is
fluctuating during the period. It shows that working capital has not been effectively used over
the period of years e(cept in the year 5<22.
s shown by current assets turnover ratio! the utili&ation of current assets in terms of sales
has shown an increasing trend which shows that current assets has been effectively used to
achieve sales.
gain if we look at the efficiency with which individual elements of working capital have
been utili&ed! the picture of inventory turnover is bright.
s we look at the e(tent of liEuidity of working capital! we notice that the ratio shows a
decreasing trend. This indicates! problem on the liEuidity front.
MANAGEMENT OF C5RRENT ASSETS
Alternati+e C$rrent Asset In+est(ent ,olicies
Three alternative policies are there regarding the total amount of current assets. ,ssentially!
these policies differ with regard to the amount of current assets carried to support any given level
of sales! hence in the turnover of those assets. The line with the steepest slope represents a
rela(ed current asset investment Calso known as Bfat catMD #olicy! where relatively large amounts
of cash! marketable securities! and inventories are carried! and where sales are stimulated by the
use of a credit policy that provides liberal financing to customers and a corresponding high level
of receivables. Conversely! with the restricted current asset investment Calso known as Blean and
meanMD policy! the holdings of cash! securities! inventories and receivables are minimi&ed. .nder
the restricted! current assets are turned over more freEuently! so each dollar of current assets is
forced to Bwork harderM. The moderate current asset investment policy is between the two
e(tremes.
.nder the conditions of certainty! all firms would hold only minimal levels of current assets.
ny larger amounts would increase the need for e(ternal funding without a corresponding
increase in profits! while any smaller holdings would involve late payments to suppliers along
with lost sales due to inventory shortages and an overly restrictive credit policy.
When uncertainty is introduced the firm reEuires some minimum amount of cash and inventories.
restricted lean and mean current asset investment policy often provides the highest e(pected
return on this investment! but it entails the greatest risk! while the reverse is true under a rela(ed
policy.

Before allowing credit to a new customer trade and bank references should be sought. ccounts
can be asked for and analy&ed and a report including any county court )udgments
gainst the business and a credit score asked for from a credit rating business. "alesmenAs views
can also be canvassed and the premises of the potential customer visited.
The e(tent to which all means are called upon will depend on the amount of the credit sought!
the period! past e(periences with this customer or trade sector! and the importance of the
business that is involved. But this is not a one%off reEuirement. 4ne classic fraud is to start off
with small amounts of credit! with invoices being settled promptly! eventually building up to a
huge order and a disappearing customer.
Credit checking! even for established customers! should therefore feature in regular procedures.
When the creditworthiness of a new customer is established! positive credit control calls for the
setting of a credit limit! any settlement discounts! the credit period! and credit charges Cif anyD.
The 7ate #ayment of Commercial Debts CInterestD ct now allows small businesses to charge
large interest on late payment of business debts by companies and public sector organi&ations.
3evertheless! it is wise to inform customers this right will be e(ercised.
Collection is a vital element of credit control and must include standard! polite and well%
constructed reminder letters and effective telephone or e%mail follow up. .se of collection
agencies should be considered! as could factoring J in its most comprehensive form a loan
facility based on outstanding invoices plus a sales ledger and debtors control service.
,fficient control of debtors will assist cash flow! and help keep overdraft or other loan
reEuirements down! and hence reduce interest costs.
Debtors represent future cash J or they should do if proper credit control policies are pursued.
7ikewise stock will eventually become cash! but in the meantime represents working capital tied
up in the business. ;eeping levels to the minimum reEuired for efficient operations will keep
costs down. This means controlling buying! handling! and storing! issuing! and recording stock.
Inherent in any system of inventory control is the concept of appropriate stock levels J normally
e(pressed in physical units sometimes in monetary terms.
The ob)ective of establishing control levels is to ensure that e(cessive stocks are never carried
Cand working capital thereby sacrificedD but that they never fall below the level at which they can
be replenished before they run out.

The operating cycle of the firm is disturbed! as it is continuously increasing which is not good for
the company.
The company policy had a significant change for the year with regard to inventory as it had
increased continuously but this policy has a cost to the company in the presence of a
significant decrease in payables deferral period! will have to negotiate higher working capital
funds.
Company has tighten its steps towards the credit policy which signifies that in the current
year company is proving itself more efficient but other side it as well shows a decline in the
market share of the company.
The company had reduced down its payables deferral period significantly which strengthens
its creditworthiness in the market and helps the company in getting the loans on liberal terms.
This represents the efficiency of the management.
4ne can have a vastly different working capital outlay while performing the same activity.
9aving a large amount invested in stocks and debtors does not necessarily mean large profits! but
it can mean a drop in the prime calculation that every businessman is interested in the return on
investment. The ob)ect of working capital management is to trim down on stocks and debtors and
get the cash coming faster within the comfort &one of the business. In the normal periods of
business activity! cash that had completed the working capital cycle would be reinvested in stock
and the whole process would begin again.

three years we can very easily depict that its current ratio is more than the standard one i.e. of
5F2. This type of approach also gives the adverse impact on the liEuidity of the company.

The above situation shows that company management is efficient in management of working
capital.
Making the comparison of current assets and current liabilities in 5<22 + 5<25 current
liabilities are less than current assets which leads the working capital in positive range which
is good for the company.

Composition of all parts seems to be distributing but almost each component is showing
increasing trend which has both kind of influence for the financial performance of the
company so company need to manage these components very carefully.
Inventory is showing an increasing trend that is the signal of danger for companyAs
profitability and these are not giving any return by locking up working capital.
S$&&estions-
*irst and foremost suggestion for the company is that! it should look into the idle funds!
which are engaged in inventory. Company should withdraw money from this locked up
working capital and invest it in some other assets.

Anal#sis-
s we can see from the graph and table that ma)or portion of current liabilities are with
sundry creditors and every year it keeps on increasing.
s the company obligations are increased so company need to put certain measure to control
current liabilities.
By looking the three years position of company in current assets and current liabilities it can
be seen that current liabilities are increasing over current assets so within the time company
need to manage its liability portion and need to make safer decisions.
S$&&estions-
Due to the huge amount of current liabilities company has to lock up its funds in current
assets. Therefore! it should reduce its current liabilities by paying them off so that regular
cash outflow of cash get restricted and outflow gets converted into inflow to increase in
profitability of the firm.
4ne suggestion that could be made to the company is that! it should pay off its creditors by
withdrawing some cash from its debtors! which is idle at this point of time and some amount
from its inventory.

Anal#sis-
statement of changes in working capital helps us in locating where these changes took place.
"ince working capital is measured by subtracting current liabilities from current assets. ny
increase in current asset and any decrease in current liabilities show an increase in working
capital similarly! a decrease in current assets and an increase in current liabilities represent a
decrease in working capital.
This table shows the changes in net working capital of 6;M I3*0 #046,CT". wise
financial policy of a firm reEuires that long%term funds be used to finance *i(ed ssets and short
term funds are used to finance Current ssets. The statement of changes in working capital
shows that there was a tremendous continuous increase in current liabilities. It is clear that our
debtors are increasing in the previous year so it implies that company is losing the interest on the
working capital locked into it. There is a decrease in working capital mainly because of the
locking of working capital funds in inventories and receivables and due to the increase in the
liabilities.
ESTIMATING WORKING CAPITAL NEEDS
The most appropriate method of calculating the working capital needs of a firm is the concept of
operating cycle. 9owever! a number of other methods may be used to determine working capital
needs in practice. We shall illustrate here three approaches! which have been successfully
applied in practiceF
C$rrent assets 'oldin& ,eriod- To estimate working capital reEuirements on the basis of
average holding period of current assets and relating them to costs based on the companyAs
e(perience in the previous years. This method is essentially based on the operating cycle
concept.
Ratio o! sales- To estimate working capital reEuirements as a ratio of sales on the
assumption that current assets change with sales.
Ratio o! !iCed in+est(ent- To estimate working capital reEuirements as a percentage of
fi(ed investment.

The first method gives details of the working capital items. This approach is sub)ect to error if
markets are seasonal.
number of factors will govern the choice of methods of estimating working capital. *actors
such as seasonal variations in operations! accuracy of sales forecasts! investment cost and
variability in sales price would generally be considered. The production cycle and credit and
collection policy of the firm would have an impact on working capital reEuirements. Therefore!
they should be given due weightage in pro)ecting working capital reEuirements.
TREND ANALYSIS FOR WORKING CAPITAL MANAGEMENT
Trend analysis is comparative analysis of companyAs ratios over time. It tries to predict the future
movement based on past data. Trend analysis is based on idea what is happened in past and given
the idea what would happen in past. In trend analysis! industry ratios are compared over time!
typically years. 1ear%to%year comparisons can highlight trends and point up the need for action.
Trend analysis works best with five years of ratios.
TWith the past! we can see tra)ectories into the future % both catastrophic and creative
pro)ections.T
The Trend nalysis module allows plotting aggregated response data over time. This is
especially valuable on the basis of five%year data and a result of long survey.

Trend of current ratio put a picture of company that company is not having short term fund in

Cash 0atio trend shows that company is having high amount of cash for paying current
liability which can influence the financial position of company in upcoming period.
Total asset turnover implies the asset base of company and this pro)ection is in favour of the
company that shows efficacy of company in handling asset.
Current asset turnover trend of company is decreasing which shows inefficiency in handing
assets.
Working capital is decreasing over the period that can lead company to face liEuidity crunch
+ shows inefficiency in use of working capital. It needs to analy&e the root cause of the same
to take reEuired corrective action.
DebtorAs turnover trend is showing an increase in future that signifies that there is shorter
time period in sales and collecting cash.
s the CreditorAs turnover ratio trend is decreasing which shows that payments of company
are prompt and do not keep its obligation for long time.
Inventory is showing good position in hand of company but still company need to keep a
check over it as inventory is influenced by seasonal fluctuations and market conditions.

the authorities to take notice of includeF
C$rrent ratio is sli&'tl# on a loDer side a&ainst t'e ind$str# standard o! :*FF
!olloDed in India* Current ratio indicates the ability of a company to stay afloat irrespective of
the prevailing market situations. Internationally! a current ratio of 5F2 is accepted. The investors
also seek this ratio in order to e(amine whether the company has adeEuate current resources so
that it does not default on its obligations and is able to generate sufficient returns to ma(imi&e
shareholders money.
De7tor@s t$rno+er ratio needs a t$ne $, as a&ainst creditor@s t$rno+er* This ratio
helps to e(amine whether the management of the concerned organisation is not being complacent
in recovery of its debts on time. $enerally it is reEuired that debtors turnover ratio be high as
compared to creditors turnover which implies that the firm is generating sales adeEuate enough
to cover its construction cost. If we look at the situation for 6I#7! the ratios were fine enough
until *128 but then afterwards the debtorIs turnover took a dip but because of adeEuate liEuidity
the management is able to take care of its obligations as for now. But if a proper solution is not
formulated then it can become a huge problem which will affect not only the performance of the
firm but may also deteriorate the confidence of the investors in the company.

With many a pro)ects in line and at different levels of e(ecution! it is reEuired that all the
aspects are dealt with eEual importance whether it is the case of long term ratios or the

sale of inventory which is good for the company.
>. Debtors Turnover ratio reveals an increasing trend during the period of study and
average collection period came down from >I to =5 days which shows that
company is having specific policy for debtorsA management.

2. In case of inventory management BC analysis! *"3 techniEue! /,D techniEue
should be adopted to increase the efficiency of inventory management. *urther a
inventory monitoring system should be introduced to avoid holding of e(cess
inventory.
5. It is suggested to maintain a favorable current and Euick ratios which shows a
lesser than ideal figures. It can be done either through increasing current assets
or decreasing liabilities.
8. With the help of proper inventory management systems! like demand%based
management! etc. the company can reduce the need for working capital and
inventories can be financed through accounts payable.
@. The company should try and maintain an optimum level of working capital in
order to improve upon the workings of the company.

LIMITATIONS
2. vailability of the financial data was very limited which is not disclosed due to
sensitive nature for the company.
5. The main component of working capital is cost of capital! which is not described
in the pro)ect because of confidential nature.
