1.5.  Research Methodology/Review of Related Study

            Research methodology refers to the various segmental steps along with the rationale of each step to be adopted by a researcher in studying a problem with certain objectives in view. In other words research methodology describes the methods and process applied in the entire aspects of the study.

            The basic objectives of this study is to analyze the financial performance of Kumari Bank Limited. An appropriate research methodology has to be followed to achieve the desired objectives of the study. It would be appropriate to mention here that research study is not meaningful to any unless they are sequential in order which will be determined by the particular problem at hand. This project focuses and deals with the following parts of methodology.

1.         Data collection
2          Data analysis

1.      Data Collection
            The annual report of Kumar Bank Limited was obtained from the Bank itself. Moreover, monthly and economic bulletin banking and financial statistics, economic report etc. have been collected. The data collection of primary and secondary sources.

2.      Data Analysis
            The following tools are used to analyze the data presented in the study.

            (i)      Ratio Analysis
A ratio is simply one number expressed in terms of another and on such it express the quantitative relationship between any two numbers. Ratio can be expressed in terms of percentage, proportion and as a coefficient.
           
(ii)      Liquidity Ratio
                        Liquidity ratios are used measure a firm's ability to meet short-terms obligations. They compare short terms obligations to short-term (current) resources available to meet these obligations. From these ratios, much insight can be obtained into the present cash solvency of the firm and the firm's ability to remain solvent in the event of the adversity.

            The following ratios are evaluated under liquidity ratio:
¨                  Current Ratio
¨                  Cash & Bank balance to Current deposit ratio
¨                  Cash & Bank balance to Current asset ratio

Current Ratio
            It measures the short-term solvency position of firm by the current assets. It is derived by dividing current assets by current liabilities as follows:

Current Ratio =

            Current assets are those assets that can be converted into cash within a year, such as cash & Bank balance, Investment, Debtors, Inventories, Prepaid expenses, Money at call and short notice, Overdrafts etc.

            Higher current ratio indicates better liquidity position and 2:1 or more is considered satisfactory. But all times this standard cannot be followed blindly, it depends upon quality of assets.

Cash and Bank balance to Current Deposit Ratio
            This ratio measures the ability of bank's current  assets to fulfills the current deposit. High levels of liquidity is not good as idle assets earn nothing. This ratio is calculated as under:

Cash and Bank balance to Current Deposit ratio =

Cash and Bank balance to Total Deposit Ratio
            This ratio shows the percentage of liquid assets held on compared to the total deposit. High ratio shows the strong liquidity position of the bank. But very high ratio is not favorable for the bank, as it does not produce appropriate profit to bear the high interest.
            The total deposit consists of current deposit, savings deposit, fixed deposit, money at call and short notice and other deposits. This ratio is calculated as:

Cash & Bank balance to Total Deposit Ratio =

Cash & Bank balance to Current assets ratio
            Cash & Bank balance is the most liquid form of current assets. This ratio measures the proportion of cash and bank balance held by the bank. Current assets includes: Cash & Bank balance, Money at call and short notice, Loans and Advances including, Bill discounted and Purchased, Investments in government securities and other securities, Interests receivable and miscellaneous current assets shown under used head other assets.

The ratio is calculated as follows =

Loan and Advances to Total Deposit ratio:
            This ratio measures the banks ability to utilize the via fixed, savings, current call and margin deposit to earn profit by providing loans and advances. Higher ratios indicates higher utilization of funds and lower ratio is the signal of balance remained un utilize or remaining idle. The ratio can be computed by using following formula:

Loans and Advances to total deposit ratio=

iii.      Profitability Ratio
            Profitability ratio measures the efficiency and searches the degree of success in achieving desired profit. Any firm should earn satisfactory profit to survive and grow over a long period in the competitive environment profitability ratio can be determined on the basis of either sales investment. Through this ratio the investor decides whether to invest in a particular business or not. Some of the important profitability ratio have been calculated and interpreted in this study which is presented below:

Net profit to total assets ratio
            This ratio measures the banks ability to earn as rate of return on the total assets invested. It measures the return on assets. The ratio is calculated by dividing the net profit after tax by total assets.

Net profit to total assets ratio=

Net profit to Total deposit ratio
            It is used fro measuring the internal rate of return from deposits. Here net profit means profit after tax and deposit, total deposits including savings, current, fixed, call, margin and other deposits. Higher ratio indicates the return from investment on loan and advances are better utilized and mobilized. It is computed by dividing the net profit by total deposit.

Net profit to total deposit ratio=

Return on Shareholders equity
            It is the most vital to judge whether a concern has earned a satisfactory return to its owner or not. Here, return refers to net profit after tax. This ratio is expressed by dividing net profit after tax to ordinary shareholder's equity.

Return on Shareholder's Equity=

Return to Investment
            Return on investment measures the company's return from investment or the capacity to generate profit from its investment. It can be computed by dividing net profit after tax to total investment.

Return on Investment =


Earning Per Share
            It measures the profit available to the common shareholders as per share basis i.e. the amount they get from every share. This division will automatically after the earning per share. The earning per share is calculated by dividing net profit after tax to the shareholders by number of outstanding shares.

Earning Per Share =

Divided Per Share
            Divided implies that portion of net profit, which is allocated to shareholders as return on either investment on cash. The net profit after tax belongs to shareholders. However, the income which they really received is the amount of earning distributed as such dividend. The dividend per share is that portion of earning which is allocated to shareholders divided by the total no. of shares outstanding. Thus, dividend per share is computed by dividing the total amount of dividend paid by the no. of outstanding share.

Dividend per share =

Dividend Payout Ratio
            Dividend payout ratio indicated the percentage amount of dividend paid to shareholders out of earnings per share i.e. this ratio reflects at what percentage of net profit is to be distributed in terms of dividend and what percentage is to be retained by company as retained earning. This earning is needed for business to grow and to expand. From the shareholders point of view, the dividends are more desirable to increase their current wealth and retained earning are the must sufficient internal sources of financing for the earning per share. Therefore, where there are not dividends paid, there is not dividend payout ratio. The share holder of company always expects a higher dividend payout ratio.

Dividend Payout Ratio =

Leverage Ratio
            Leverage ratio is known as capital structure ratio or solvency ratio. It is calculated to measure the long term financial position of a firm. Debt and equity are long-term obligation. This ratio indicates the fund provided by owners & creditors. Leverage ratio measures the overall financial risk as well the ability of the bank in using debt for the benefit for the share holders. Thus, there should be appropriate mix of debt and owners equity in financing the firm's assets. To find out the long solvency of the bank several ratio are calculated. This ratio helps to find out the proportions of outsiders fund and owners fund.

Long-term debt to Shareholders fund ratio
            Long-term debt means total amount of fixed and loan from banks and share holders fund consists of general reserve, share premium other reserves, general loans, loss provision, retained earnings and proposed capitalization. The ratio shows the proportion of outside long-term liabilities to shareholder's total funds. The ratio can be calculated by using following formula:

Long-term debt to shareholders fund ratio=

Total debt to Shareholders fund ratio
            Total debt refers to the sum of long-term debt and short-term debt. Debenture or bands, differed payment arrangements for buying capital equipment and bank borrowing public deposits and any other interest bearing loan. Total debt to fund ratio can be calculated by dividing total debt by the shareholders fund.

Total debt to shareholders fund ratio=

Total debt to total assets ratio
            This ratio implies a bank's success in exploiting debts to be more profitable as well as its riskier capital structure to assess the proportion of total funds short-term and long-term, provided by outsider to finance assets the following ratio may be calculated :

Total debt to Total assets ratio=

Interest coverage ratio
            Other debt ratio describes above is state in nature and fail to indicated the firm's ability to meet interests obligations. The interest coverage ratio is one of the most conventional. Coverage ratio is computed by dividing earnings before interest and tax by interest charges:

Interest Coverage Ratio=


Activity Ratio
            Activity ratio measures efficiency of an organization from various angles of its operations. This ratio indicates the efficiency of activity of an enterprise to utilize available funds, particularly short-term funds. The following activity ratios measure the performance, efficiency of an organization to utilize its short-term funds. These ratios are used to determine the efficiency, quality and the contribution of loans and advances in the total profitability.

Total Investment to Total Deposits Ratio
            This ratio reveals now efficiency the resources of the banks have been mobilized. High ratio shows the managerial efficiency regarding the utilization of deposits and vice-versa.

Total Investment to Total Deposit Ratio=

Loan and Advances to Total Deposit Ratio
            This ratio indicates the proportion of total deposit investment in loan and advances. Higher ratio indicates the proper use of total deposit where as lower ratio indicates less use of deposit or idle cash. The ratio is calculated as:

Loan and Advances to Total Deposit Ratio=

Non-Performing Loans to Loan and Advances Ratio
            This ratio indicates the percentage of non-performing loans out of total loans and advances. Higher ratio shows the inefficiency of the banks in lending and vice-versa. The ratio is calculated as:

Non-Performing loans & Loan and Advances Ratio=

Loans & Advances to Fixed Deposit Ratio
            This ratio indicates the proportion of expenses incurred interest out of total deposit of the bank. The ratio is calculated as under:

Loan and Advances to Fixed Deposit Ratio=
Loan loss Provision to Total Loans & Advances Ratio
            This ratio indicates the percentage of provision for loan loss out of total loans and advances. Banks to provisioning as per the guidance of Nepal Rastra Bank. Loan loss provision is interlinked with non-performing loans. Higher the Non-performing loans, higher will be loan loss provision. The ratio is calculated as:

Loan loss Provision to total & advances ratio=

Interest Expenses to Total Deposit Ratio
            This ratio indicates the proportion of expenses incurred interest out of total deposit of the bank. The ratio is calculated as under:

Interest Expenses to Total Deposit Ratio=

Interest Expenses to Total Expenses Ratio
            This ratio shows the percentage of interest of interest expenses out of total expenses. High ratio indicates that the major portion expenses has been spent for interest. The ratio is calculated as:

Interest Expenses to Total Expense Ratio=

Data Analysis & Major Findings

2.1   Data Presentation and Analysis

            The main purpose of analyzing the financial performance and interpretation is to highlight the strength and weakness of the business enterprises. Therefore, this chapter includes the analysis and result of gathered with a view to assessing financial performance of the bank for the period of 3 years. Consequently, this analysis help the management take benefits of strategic management technique by providing the information regarding the strength and weakness of Kumari Bank Limited to exploit the opportunities lying in the environment and manage the threat posed by the environment.

            In this chapter, the data are presented, calculated and analyzed. The secondary data is used for the purpose and for the data presentation of three years (2011/12, 2012/13, 2013/14).

2.1.1        Financial Analysis

Ratio Analysis
            As mentioned in the earlier chapter, various ratios are applied to judge the financial viability of the Kumari Bank Limited. The following ratios are used to analyze and check the financial position of the bank.

(i)      Liquidity Ratio

            Profitability of a bank is more closely related to liquidity of a commercial bank than any other business firm. since it has to gain confidence from depositors and customers which is the largest sources of fund as well as earning. Liquidity ratio measures the firm's ability to pay its short-term obligations. It also assets the solvency of the company and its ability to retain solvent even in difficult times. In case of commercial banks, short-term obligations are current deposit, saving deposit, short-term loans and source of meeting these obligations are cash and bank balance, money at call and short-term notice, investments in government securities and bill discounted and purchased. There is compulsion in banking sector to maintain cash and bank balance as directed by the Nepal Rastra Bank. From legal perspective cash and bank balance to total deposit ratio shows actual liquidity position of the bank whereas other liquidity ratio are also useful.
            The liquidity ratio can be analyzed under the following four classifications:

(ii)     Current Ratio

            This ratio is applied to test solvency as well as in determining short-term financial strength of the bank. The current ratio indicates the availability of current assets in rupees for very one rupee of current liabilities. This ratio more than 2.1 is satisfactory. It is computed as dividing current assets by current liabilities. The current ratio of the bank for this report is calculated as follows:

Current Ratio=

Table 1: Current Ratio

4960773398
1.096
2013/14
7354897975
6792440589
1.083

Current Assets =       Cash & Bank balance + Money at call & short notice + Loans and Advances + other assets

            Generally, higher current ratio indicates better liquidity position and 2:1 or more is considered satisfactory. But here in the context of bank this ratio is less than 2:1 but we considered it satisfactory because bank always have more liquid current assets than other types of organization. Here in the context of Kumari Bank Limited the current ratio of 2011/2012 is 1.120, 2012/13 is 1.096 and 2013/14 is 1.083. It indicates that the liquidity position of the bank has decreased with comparison to the year 2011/2012.

(iii)    Cash and Bank balance to Total Deposit Ratio

            This ratio shows the percentage of liquid assets held as compared to the total deposit. High ratio shows the strong liquidity position of the bank. It can be calculated as follows:

Cash & Balance to Total Deposit Ratio=


Table 2: Cash & Bank Balance to Total Deposit Ratio

4807936964
0.143
2013/14
443371369
6268954481
0.070

            The cash and bank balance to total deposit ratio of the bank in the fiscal year 2011/2012 is 0.116, in the fiscal year 2012/2013 is 0.143 & in the fiscal year 2013/14 is 0.070. It shows that the bank has more strong liquidity position in the fiscal year 2012/2013 as compare to the fiscal year 2011/2012 but the bank has not strong liquidity position in fiscal year 2013/14 as compare to 2012/2013. The high ratio also indicates the idle portion of the total deposit amount which cannot generate income.

(iv)    Cash and Bank balance to Current Deposit Ratio

            This ratio measures the ability of banks current assets to fulfill the current deposit. It is calculated as follows:

Cash and Bank balance to Current Deposit Ratio=

Table 3: Cash and Bank Balance to Current Deposit Ratio
Year
Cash & Bank Balance
Current Deposit
Ratio

251045213
2.730
2013/14
443371369
279361097
1.588

            The bank's cash and bank balance to current deposit ratio is higher because it is more than 2 times in the fiscal year 2011/12 and 2012/13 but the ratio in the fiscal year 2013/14 is less than previous years. It indicates that there is high level of idle assets in the year 2011/12 and 2012/13, which earn nothing. But bank tires to minimize the idle cash by investing it to the productive sectors. This shows by its lower ratio. The ratios are 2.519 in fiscal year 2011/2012, 2.730 in the fiscal year 2012/2013 and 1.588 in the year 2013/14.

(v)     Cash and Bank Balance to Current Assets Ratio

            This ratio measures the proportion of cash and bank balance held by the bank to compare with current assets. It can be calculated as follows:

Cash and Bank Balance to Current Assets Ratio=
Table 4: Cash and Bank Balance Assets Ratios
Year
Cash & Bank Balance

5437024355
0.125
2013/14
443371369
2354897975
0.060

            This ratio shows that the bank is not able to repay its current obligation by cash and bank balance. In other words, cash and balance is very low with compare to its current assets. In the fiscal year 2011/12 is 0.126 and in the fiscal year 2012/13 is 0.60. This means that the bank has increased its cash and bank balance in the year 2012/13 but decrease in 2012/13. This ratio of the bank is somehow satisfactory because high cash and bank balance increase cost as it is idle. So the bank should maintain its cash and bank balance by analyzing its liquidity factor.

(vi)    Loan and Advance to Total Deposit ratio

            This ratio measures the banks ability to utilize the amount that has been collected through saving, current & fixed deposit account. High ratio indicates the higher utilization of amount and vice-versa. It can be calculated as follows:

Loans and Advances to Total Deposit Ratio=

Table 5: Loans and Advances to Total Deposit Ratio

4807936964
0.759
2013/14
5590925658
6268954481
0.982

            The loan and advances to total deposit ratio of the Kumari Bank Limited in the fiscal year 2011/12 is 0.838 means about 83% of its deposit is utilized in the loan and advances. In fiscal year 2012/13 is 0.759 means about 75% of its total deposit is utilized in loan and advances and in the fiscal year 2012/13 is 0.892 means about 89% of its total deposit is utilized. This ratio decreased in the fiscal year 2012/13, thus 2011/12 by about 13% that means the banks ability to utilize its fund is decreased which is not good but in the year 2012/13 ratio increased by 14% which shows bank is trying to utilize its fund. This is good.

2.1.2        Profitability Ratio

            It measures the efficiency and searches the degree of success in achieving desired profit. Any firm should earn satisfactory profit for survive and grow over a long period in the competitive environment. Moreover, through this ratio the investor can decide whether to invest or not. Under this ratio the following ratio are calculated.

(i)      Net Profit to Total Assets Ratio

            This ratio measure the firm's ability to earn return on total assets invested. It measures the return on assets. The higher rate of return is considered good and vice-versa. This ratio can be calculated as follows:

Net profit to total assets ratio=

7437885125
0.01182

            The net profit to total assets ratio of the bank is very low in fiscal year. It indicates that the bank is not in good position to earn profit. In the latest year bank's profit and ratio of net profit to total assets is increased, this factor is good, but the increasing pattern is as the race of tortoise. Bank should accelerate it speed to increase its profit ratio in the coming year.

(ii)     Net Profit to Total Deposit Ratio

            This ratio is used to measure the internal rate of deposit. Here net profit means profit after tax and deposit means total deposit including saving, current and fixed. Higher ratio indicates the return from the loan and advances is better. It can be calculated as follows:

But the bank is also increasing its rate return as compared to increasing in total deposit. This ratio is low because here the net profit is taken after deducting bonus to staff and provision for losses.

            This ratio is very important tool to judge whether the concern has earn satisfactory returns to its over or not. Here return refers to the profit after tax. This ratio is calculated as follows:

It indicates that the bank has used its fund to generate its income. From the increasing ratio of return on investment, we can confidently say that the performance of the bank is in good condition

(v)     Earning Per Share

            It measures the profit available to the common shareholders as per share basis. If one forgets to calculate the return on shareholders equity, his performance analysis cannot be completed. Common shareholders are entitled to the residual profit. The rate of common dividend is not fixed, the earning many be distributed to them or retained in the business. This ratio indicates how well the firm utilizes the resources of owners. In fact, this ratio of great interest to present as well as prospective shareholders is also of great concern to the management, which has the responsibility of maximizing the owner's welfare. This can be calculated as under:

Earning Per Share=

            By studying the above table, we can say that the bank has increased the shareholder's equity by (9.74-3.56) i.e. 6.18 in the fiscal year 2012/13 and in the latest fiscal year 2012/13 bank has also increased its earning per share by (17.58 - 9.74) i.e. 7.84. However, the bank has increased its shareholders equity or common stock by 15,00,000 in the year 2013/14. The above figure shows that bank is in dynamic motion to increase its shareholder's earning per share at the high rate. So, we can say that the performance of the bank is a very good; it makes the common shareholders satisfied.

(vi)    Dividend Per Share

            Dividend implies that portion of net profit, which is allocated to shareholders return on either investment on cash. It is the net profit after tax belongs to shareholders. However the income which they really received is the amount of earning distributed as cash dividend per share is that portion of earning per share that is distributed to common shareholder. It can be calculated as follows:

Dividend Per Share=

It means it refers to what percent of earning is distributed to shareholders as cash dividend and what percent of earning is n the form of retained earning. That is needed for business to grow and expand. From the shareholders point of view more cash dividend is desirable however from business point of view or organization's point of view more retained earning is desirable for internal financing. It is calculated as follows:

Dividend Payout Ratio=

            The bank has not distributed cash dividend in the fiscal year 2011/12 and 2012/13 but in the fiscal year 2012/13 the bank distributed 0.54 or 54% of its earning to the shareholders. The rest portion of the earning of the bank is taken is retained earning which is useful for internal financing. From the above table we know that 46% of the earning is taken as retained earning in the fiscal year 2012/13. All the earnings is retained in the fiscal year 2011/12 & 2013/14.

2.1.3 Leverage Ratio

            But in the context of Kumari Bank Limited there is not long-term. So, fixed deposit is taken as its long-term liability. And here we have calculated the solvency of fixed deposit by its equity under leverage ratio. The following ratios are calculated:

(i)      Long-term debt to shareholder fund ratio

            This ratio shows that the total amount of fixed deposit and long-term bank loan and shareholders fund consists of general reserve, share premium, other reserves and share capital. Here in the context of Kumari Bank Limited long-term loan is taken as fixed deposit and loan advance from bank other institutions. This ratio is calculated as under:

Long-term debt to shareholders fund ratio=

570147056
2.267
2013/14
2703848950
533801337
5.066

            The long-term debt to shareholder fund ratio of the bank in the fiscal year 2011/12 is 2.024 which mean the bank has more than double shareholders fund than the fixed deposit. So it can cover the fixed deposit by shareholder fund. In the fiscal year 2012/13 the ratio is increased than the fiscal year 2011/12. And in the fiscal year 2012/13 the ratio is increased as double as 2013/14. This means there is no risk to deposit in this ban from the depositor point of view. 

(ii)     Total long-term debt to Total assets ratio

            This ratio implies banks success in exploiting debts to be more as well as its riskier capital structure. For the requirement fund to the firm the management should financed the proper mix of fund from the debt and others. This ratio is calculated as under:
Total debt to Total assets ratio=

It indicates that 0.267 times in fiscal year 2011/12, 0235 times in fiscal year 2013/14 and 0.364 times in the fiscal year 2012/13 of total assets is total debt. Total ratio is decreased in the fiscal year 2012/13 than fiscal year 2011/12 but increased in fiscal year 2013/14 as compare to earlier.

(iii)    Total Debt to Shareholders fund Ratio

            This ratio shows the relation between total debt and shareholder's equity. It shows the ratio between total debt and shareholder's equity.

Chapter-III
                           
Summary, Conclusion & Recommendation

3.1   Summary and Conclusion

            This field work report has been prepared for the fulfillment of the internal assessment of BBS programme. From this purpose, here we have analyzed the financial performance of Kumari Bank Limited. To evaluate the financial performance of the bank, we have divided the whole report to different chapters. In every chapter, there are several sub-chapter. The first Introduction chapter gives background information about the project work, introduction of Kumari Bank Limited, Review related studies etc. The second chapter called Presentation and Analysis of Data, we tried to analyze it's financial performance through Ratio Analysis. By using this financial tool, we computed different ratios to evaluate it's Liquidity position, Management Position, Profitability Position and overall Financial Position.

            Ratio analysis is a very significant tool to financial performance analysis. It is one of the means by which financial stability, wealth, viability and performance of a firm can be judged. Current ratio of Kumari Bank Limited is how than it's theoretical norm that is 2:1. Its current ratio are 1.12, 1.096 and 1.083 in the year 2011/12, 2012/13 and 2013/14 respectively. But, there is not matter to worry about because the bank has kept more liquid assets than other types of organization. Other solvency power of bank to the different deposit by its cash is also in increasing trend. Moreover, it should manage cash properly because cash on hand doesn't generate any income. In aggregate, there is nothing to be worried about the liquidity position of the bank since it's quality of current assets is very good which can be easily converted into cash within short period without any loss of it's assets.

            The debt position is unfavorable to the management because it has not borrowed loan from banks and institutions in the earlier years. But is the latest year bank has borrowed some amount of money from central banks which is good symptom. By borrowing loans at low rate of interest from other banks, the institution may generate lots of income by investing such loans on highly profitable sectors. The profitability position of the bank is much satisfactory. The net profit of the bank has increased as compared to it's increment in investment.

3.2   Recommendation

            However, we are not authorized person to recommend the management of Kumari Bank Limited but here we attempt to recommend the management of Kumari Bank Limited. Here under we have given some recommendation which may be useful to the management:

¨                  To raise the total capital of Kumari Bank Limited by long-term debt and minimize the use shareholders equity.
¨                  To maintain the idle cash or cash equivalents minimum.
¨                  The bank should finance the maximum fund in external assets.
¨                  The bank should take maximum advantage by maintaining minimum cash holding and should finance in riskier assets that is Loan and Advances to earn high interest.
¨                  For the better utilization of Shareholders fund, the bank should conduct research frequently.
¨                  Kumari Bank should maintain Liquidity to meet current obligations easily.
¨                  The bank should identify better investment opportunity to get high rates of return.
