METHODOLOGY
Secondary data
In this project all the data are analyzed on the basis of secondary data.
Secondary Sources:
literature, files and personal observation to have an idea about the organizational set up,
The numbers given in the financial statement are not of much use to the decision
maker. These numbers are to be analysed over a period of time or relation to other
numbers so that significant conclusions could be drawn regarding the strengths and
weakness of a business enterprise. The tools of financial analysis help in this regard.
These tools include:
Comparative Statements;
Common-size Statements;
Comparative Balance Sheet;
Common Size Balance Sheet;
Ratio Analysis;
Cash flow Statements;
Changes in Financial Position.
In this project we show or discuss:
1. Profit & Loss Account
2. Balance Sheet
3. Comparative Statements.

7. Ratio Analysis of financial statement of “Infosys”
Limitation of the Study:
Every work has its own limitation. During the process of conducting the research
study the following limitations may be faced:-
The lack of time and shortage of funds have urged the study to cover only a partial
analysis of financial information of the organisation.
The study has its own limitations because the study is confined to only one company.
Due to insufficient time I have analyzed only two years financial analysis of this
company.
Statistical tools used limits the testing and findings
Findings (Interpretations) are general.
Confidentially of required data: financial data is confidentially expecting audited
annual reports, which limited the scope of accurate study and current estimations.

prior year same period. comparative income statement consist of two columns of amounts
(one is of current year and another is of prior year) appearing to the right of the account
titles or descriptions. The amounts are shown side by side to make it easy to compare the two
periods presented. Comparative income statement may also refer to this same type of
assets, liabilities, and shareholders' equity as of multiple points in time. For example, a
comparative balance sheet could present the balance sheet as of the end of each year for the
past three years. Another variation is to present the balance sheet as of the end of each month
for the past 12 months on a rolling basis. In both cases, the intent is to provide the reader with
a series of snapshots of a company's financial condition over a period of time, which is useful
for developing trend line analyses (though this works better when the reader has the entire set
of financial statements to work with and not just the balance sheet).
Common size income statements are basically used for analysis purposes where each
item on the face of income statement is expressed in relation to revenue so that users can
easily understand that how different expenses and other incomes and gains adds up to gross
profit and net profit. This is widely used in ratio analysis and serve as a vital tool start up a

performance of the company with the preceding accounting periods known as trend-analysis
or time-series analysis. We can also compare financial information of one company with
other companies in the industry which is known as cross-sectional analysis. The good thing
about common-size analysis is that it is really easily to do and also interpreting the results is
not so difficult. Even the users who are not proficient in analysis techniques can gain insight
of company’s financial performance to some extent from common size financial statements

major change in the financial position is the decrease of borrowed funds replaced by short

From the analysis at the previous pages it is evident that the current ratio of the
company has fallen to a large extend. The company has repaid outside loan to a large
extend by liquidating the current assts. The capital employed has therefore fallen by 32.5 %

The operational profit of the company has been achieved at almost par with the previous

to the previous year figures it is evident that the volume of operations of the company has
increased in the current period, however the profitability has been just about the same level.
There was a cash crunch in the current year which has resulted the Current ratio to fall
