INTRODUCTION
1.1 INTRODUCTION TO FINANCE:
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 3
Finance was studied as part of economics before the turn of the present century. It was only in
the early part of the present century when massive consolidation movement tool place that
finance came to be studied as a corporate discipline, formation of large seized understandings
by consolidating the smaller once brought before the management the problem of financing
these giant enterprises. Accordingly, over whelming emphasis was placed on study of sources
and forms of financing the new industrial giants.
MEANING OF FINANCE:
Finance is one of the major elements, which activates the overall growth of the economy.
Finance is the lifeblood of economic activity. Finance is defined as “the provision of money as
the time when it is required every enterprise, whether big, medium or small, needs finance to
carry on its operations and to achieve its target. Finance is regarded as the lifeblood of the
business enterprises without adequate finance; no enterprise can possibly accomplish its
objectives.
The subject of finance has been traditionally classified into two classes:-
1. Public Finance
2. Private Finance
Public finance deals with the requirements and disbursements of funds in the government
institution life states, local self-governments and control governments.
Private finance is concerned with requirements receipt and disbursements of funds in case of
an individual.
Definitions of Finance:-
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 4
“The science of raising and expanding the public revenue”
“A branch of economics concerned with resource allocation as well as resource management,
acquisition and investment. Simply, finance deals with matters related to money and markets”.
Finance is a branch of economics that deals with the management of funds, financial sources
and other assets. In broader terms, finance is raising or investing money either as equity or
debt. Finance is a wide-ranging term which includes funding, investments, trading and risk
management (through various types of insurance policies).
Financial Management
Meaning:
Financial Management is the specialized functions directly associated with the top
management. The significance of this function is not only seen in the ‘Line’ but also in the
capacity of ‘Staff’ in the overall administration of a company.
Definitions:
“Financial Management is the application of the planning and control functions to the finance
function.”
- Archer &Ambrosio.
“Financial Management is the operational activity of a business that is responsible for
obtaining and effectively utilizing the funds necessary for efficient operation.”
- Joseph & Massie
SCOPE OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT:
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 5
Financial management is broadly concerned with the acquisition and use of funds by a business
firm. The important tasks of financial management are categorized as follows:
GOALS OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 6
Financial
Analysis,
planning and
control
Analysis of financial condition and preference.Profit planning.Financial forecasting.Financial control.
Investing
Management of current assets.Capital budgeting.Managing of mergers, reorganizations and divestments.
Financing
Identification of sources of finance and determination of financing mix.Cultivating sources of funds and raising funds.Allocation of profits between dividends and retained earnings.
SCOPE OF FINANCIAL
MANAGEMENT
Specific Objectives:-
1. Profit Maximization: Earning profits by a company or a corporate is a social
obligation. Profit is the only means through which an efficiency of organization can be
measured. Profit maximization achieved by an organization is regarded as a primary
measure of its success. The survival of the firm depends upon its ability to earn profits.
Though profit maximization has many features different people expressed different
opinions to consider this as main goal of a company.
Profit maximization increases the confidence of management in expansion and
diversification programs of a company.
Profit maximization attracts the investors to invest their savings in securities.
Profits ensure maximum welfare to the share-holders, employees and prompt
payment to creditors of the company.
Profit indicates the efficient use of funds for different requirements.
2. Wealth Maximization: The concept of ‘Wealth Maximization’ refers to the
gradual growth of the value of assets of the firm in terms of benefits it can produce. The
wealth maximization attained by a company is reflected in the market value of shares.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 7
SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES
Profit MaximisationWealth Maximisation
GENERAL OBJECTIVES
Balanced Asset StructureLiquidityJudicious Planning of FundsEfficiencyFinancial Discipline
In other words, it is nothing but the process of creating wealth of an organization. This
maximizes the wealth of shareholders.
Wealth maximization is the net present value of a financial decision. Wealth
maximization concept has been explained differently by practical financial executives.
“When the company’s profits are more, he advises the management to keep certain
amount of profit for future expansion, through which he increases the production and
market share.”
General Objectives:
1. Balanced Asset Structure: The subject of financial management must have a goal
of maintaining balanced asset structure of company. The size of fixed assets is to be
decided scientifically. The size of current assets must permit the company to exploit the
investments on fixed assets.
2. Liquidity: The liquidity objective of a company will exploit the long-term vision of a
company. If a firm is ‘Liquid’, it is an indication of positive growth.
3. Judicious Planning of Funds: The concept of wealth or profit maximization is
achieved only when a company reduces its cost. Cost here not only refers to the overall
cost of operations but also the cost of funds.
4. Efficiency: “Innovate or Perish” is the slogan of this century. If a company is
innovative or efficient, it can be run successfully in its future periods. It is the
obligation of a finance manager to be vigilant in increasing the efficiency level of a
company.
5. Financial Discipline: As in the recent past, country has witnessed different types of
scandals, corporate financial indiscipline, and misuse of funds. Hence it has become an
obligatory responsibility of a company to have financial discipline through various
techniques of financial management i.e., capital budgeting, fund flow and cash flow
statement, performance budgeting, CVP analysis etc.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 8
1. Anticipating Financial Needs: The financial manager has to forecast expected
events in business and note their financial implications. Financial needs can be
anticipated by forecasting expected funds in a business and recording their financial
implications. In a big business, a financial need expands into an impressive array of
documents. These are:
Cash budget which is essentially a cash flow statement;
A Pro-forma income statement summarizing sales, other income, costs, taxes
and net income for the period;
A Pro-forma balance sheet showing what the assets and liabilities will be like
during the forecast period;
A statement of sources and uses of funds, showing where the funds to operate
the business will come from and how they will be absorbed during the period.

A’s of Financial Management
2. Acquiring Financial Resources: This implies knowing when, where and how to
obtain the funds which a business needs. Funds should be acquired well before the need
for them is actually felt. The financial manager should know how to tap the different
sources for both funds. He may require short-term and long-term funds. The financial
image of a corporation has to be improved in appropriate financial circles which are
primarily responsible for supplying finance.
3. Allocating Funds in Business: Allocating funds in a business means investing
them in the best plan of assets. Assets are balanced by weighing their profitability
against liquidity. Profitability refers to the earning of profits. Liquidity means closeness
to money. The finance manager should allocate funds according to their profitability,
liquidity and leverage.
4. Administrating the Allocation of Funds: Once funds are allocated on various
investment opportunities, it is the basic responsibility of the finance manager to watch
the performance of each rupee that has been invested. This helps the management to
increase efficiency by reducing the cost of operations and earn fair amount of profits
out of these investments.
5. Analyzing the performance of Finance: Once the funds are administered, it is
very comfortable for the finance manager to take decisions. Through budgeting, he will
be able to compare the actual with standards. The returns on the investments should be
continuous and consistent. The cost of each financial decision and returns of each
investment must be analyzed. This helps in achieving ‘liquidity’ of a business unit.
6. Accounting and Reporting to the Management: Finance manager not only
acts as line but also as staff. He has to advise and supply information about the
performance of finance to the top management and is also responsible for maintaining
up-to-date records of the performance of financial decisions. Financial management is
concerned with the many responsibilities which are the main thrust of a business
enterprise. Hence accounting and reporting of the performance of finance is an
important aspect of financial management.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 10
FUNCTIONAL AREAS OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT:
1. Estimation of Financial Management:
The requirement of finance to a business concern is continuous. It is needed in all the
stages of business cycle namely, initial growth, saturation and declining stage. Funds
are needed to establish the industry both for meeting capital expenditure and revenue
expenditure. Funds are also needed at the growth stage for expansion and to increase
the production to meet the demand of consumers. The requirement of finance rises at
the stage of saturation also for diversification. If the firm becomes sick, to rejuvenate
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 11
FUNCTIONAL AREAS OF

NT
the activities of such business concern rescheduling, repackage of financial services are
needed. Hence, it is the first task of finance manager.
2. Selection of the Right Sources of Funds:
After estimating the total funds of business concern, it is the second important step of
the finance manager to select the right type of sources of funds at the right time at right
cost. Each financial instrument is associated with different types of costs. Equity has
the cost of dividend or expectation of the shareholders, debenture or borrowings has the
cost of interest, preference share has the cost of dividend. Careful selection has to be
made out of the available alternative sources of funds.
3. Allocation of Funds:
After mobilizing the total funds of a firm, it is the responsibility of finance manager to
distribute the funds to capital expenditure and revenue expenditure. The evaluation of
different proposals of project must be made before making a final decision on
investment. Each investment must yield fair amount of returns, so that it should
contribute to the goal of ‘Wealth Maximization’.
4. Analysis and Interpretation of Financial Performance:
It is another important task of finance manager. He is expected to watch the
performance of each portfolio that can be measured in terms of profitability and returns
on the investments. Ratio analysis and comparison of actual with standard helps the
finance manager to have maximum control over the entire operations of the business
unit.
5. Analysis of Cost-Volume-Profit:
It is another important tool of the financial management that helps the management to
evaluate different proposals of investments. Make or Buy decision, Deletion and
Continuation of a product line decision can be made by adopting CVP/BEP analysis.
This helps the management to achieve long term objectives of a firm.
6. Capital Budgeting:
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 12
It is a technique through which a finance manager evaluates the investment proposals.
Pay Back Period, ARR, IRR, NPV are some of the modern techniques, very popular in
capital budgeting. These techniques are adopted by finance manager to attain financial
objective of the enterprise.
7. Working Capital Management:
Working Capital is rightly an adjunct of fixed capital investment. It is a financial
lubricant which keeps business operations going. It is the lifeblood of a firm. Cash is
the central reservoir of a firm and ensures liquidity. The finance manager should weigh
the advantage of customer trade credit, such as increase in volume of sales, against
limitations of costs and risks involved therein. He should match the inventory level to
sales and reduces the stay of inventory during the production. This helps the
management to meet the demand of the market on time.
8. Fair Return to Investors:
Returns are the divisible profits available to the investors. Equity shareholders normally
expect fair amount of profit and capital appreciation for their investment. Unless and
until this is fulfilled by a company, the confidence of the investors will be stake. In long
term it helps the nation to build strong capital formation and increases industrial
activities. It also contributes to the growing activities. Hence a business firm must
assure regular income to the shareholders.
Capital Structure
“Capital structure of a company refers to the composition of its capitalization and it includes all
long term capital sources i.e., loans, reserves, shares and bonds.”
- Gerestenberg
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 13
“The capital structure of business can be measured by the ratio of various kinds of permanent
loan and equity capital to total capital.”
- Schwarty
Factors affecting capital structure:
Internal Factors
1. Financial Leverage: The use of fixed securities, such as debt and preference capital
along with owners’ equity in the capital structure is described as ‘financial leverage’.
This decision is most important from the point of financing decisions.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 14
Internal Factors Financial Leverage Cash Flows Risk Growth & Stability Cost of Capital Purpose of Finance Retaining Control Flexibility Asset Structure
External Factors Size of the Company Nature of the Industry Investors Level of Interest Rate Availability of Funds Level of Business Activity Period of finance Taxation Policy Legal Requirements Level of Stock Prices
2. Cash Flows: Cash flow ability of a company will have direct impact on the capital
structure. Cash flows permit the company to meet its short term obligations. Sound cash
flows facilitate the finance manager in raising funds through debt.
3. Risk: Ordinarily, debt securities increase the risk, while equity securities reduce the
risk. The risk attached to the use of leverage is called “Financial Risk”. A firm can
avoid or reduce the risk, if it does not employ debt capital in the capital mix.
4. Growth and Stability: In the initial stages, a firm can meet its financial requirements
through long-term sources, particularly by raising equity shares. Once the company is
stable, it can raise debt or preference capital for growth and expansion programs of the
company.
5. Cost of Capital: The cost of capital refers to the expectation of suppliers of funds. The
objective of knowing the cost of capital is to increase the returns on investments, so
that, a firm should earn sufficient profits to repay the interest and installment of
principal to the lenders.
6. Purpose of Finance: The purpose of finance is another factor that influences the
capital structure. If a firm is engaged in business transactions, it can make use of Debt
and Equity mix or can enjoy leverage benefits. For an existing company, funds may be
required for expansion or diversification. It may be financed through retained earnings,
debentures or preference capital. Hence purpose of business influences the Capital
Structure.
7. Retaining Control: The attitude of the management towards retaining control over the
company will have direct impact on the capital structure. If the existing shareholders
want to continue the same holding on the company, they may not encourage the issue
of additional equity shares. Fresh issue of equity share reduces the interest and holding
over the company. The divisible profits percentage of such company will also come
down. In the long run, it affects the market value of the shares. Hence, in the normal
practical situation, the existing equity shareholders direct the management to raise the
additional source only through debentures or preference shares.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 15
8. Flexibility: Flexibility means the firm’s ability to adopt its capital structure to the
needs of changing conditions; its capital structure should be flexible, so that without
much practical difficulties, a firm can change the securities in capital structure. The
degree of flexibility in the capital structure mainly depends on flexibility in fixed
charges, restrictive covenants in loan agreements, terms of redemption and the debt
capacity.
9. Asset Structure: Funds are needed to make investments on fixed assets and current
assets. Fixed assets investments can be met by long-term sources i.e., through the issue
of equity, debentures or preference capital. A portion of current asset investments are
also financed by long-term sources. Short-term sources are used for meeting the
working capital requirement. Hence, Asset Structure influences the Capital Structure.
External Factors
1. Size of the Company: If the size of the business is small, the requirement of finance is
too little. If the size of the business is large, large amount of capital is required. If a firm
plans to raise smaller amount of capital, it selects only few securities in its capital
structure.
2. Nature of the Industry: The nature of industry, method of production, type of product
etc., will also influence the capital structure. A trading company, which has less asset
structure, has to depend mainly on equity or preference capital to meet their capital
requirement.
3. Investors: The statistics of public issues in the primary market indicates more
fluctuations in the flow of funds. Now the investors are cautious over the investments.
Political, socio-economic factors of the country made the investors to be very alert in
their portfolio management.
4. Level of Interest Rate: The rate of interest will have direct impact on borrowed funds.
If the expectation of the banker is more to get high percentage of interest, a firm can
postpone the mobilization of funds or can make use of retained earnings. Hence, it
affects the capital structure.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 16
5. Availability of Funds: The availability of money in the capital and money market will
directly influence the company financial structure. Hence, a finance manager has to
study the flow and availability of funds before he decides about the capital structure.
6. Period of Finance: Funds are required for different purposes.
o Short term (1-3 years) funds are required to meet working capital requirements.
Hence, it is raised through commercial banks (O.D, Cash Credit).
o Medium term finance (8-10 years) is required to meet expansion and
diversification purposes and which can be raised through issue of preference or
debenture capital.
Hence period of finance will also influence the capital structure.
7. Legal Requirements: The legal and statutory requirement of the Government will also
influence the capital structure. SEBI guidelines on investors protection, maintain
Debt: Equity ratio and current ratio, promoter contribution etc., will have direct bearing
on capital structure. Besides this, the monetary and fiscal policies of the government
also affect the capital structure decision.
8. Level of Business Activity: When a level of business activity of a firm is rising, it
requires more funds for expansion or diversification. The company may opt for raising
additional funds through debentures, preference shares or it can borrow term loans.
Hence, it affects the capital structure.
9. Taxation Policy: High corporate tax, high tax on dividend and capital gains directly
influence the decision of capital structure. High tax discourages the issue of equity and
encourages to issue more amount of debt instrument, as the fixed charges on these
securities, i.e., interest can be directly charged to Profit and Loss A/c for income tax
calculations. Hence capital structure of a company is affected.
1.2 INTRODUCTION TO LEVERAGE:
Leverage has been defined as “the action of a lever, and mechanical advantage gained by
it.” In simple words, it is a force applied at a particular point to get the desired result. The
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 17
term leverage refers generally to circumstances which bring about an increase in income
volatility. In business, leverage is the means which a business firm can increase the profits.
The force will be applied on debt; the benefit of this is reflected in the form of higher
returns to equity shareholders. It is termed as “Trading on Equity.”
TYPES OF LEVERAGES:
1. Financial Leverage:
The main aim of any business is to maximize the wealth of the firm and increased
return to the equity holders. Earnings per share are a barometer through which
performance of an industrial unit can be measured.
Financial leverage helps the finance manager to select an appropriate mix of capital
structure. Capital is required for the purpose of meeting both long-term and short-term
financial requirement of a business unit. This could be raised through long term
sources, namely, equity shares, debentures, preference shares, etc. Also could be raised
through short term sources namely, over draft, cash credit, bill discounting, etc., can be
raised to fulfill the short-term requirement through the commercial banks. Each of these
instrument is directly associated with the cost.
Operating Income / EBITo Financial Leverage =
Taxable Income / EBT
Significance of Financial Leverage:
Financial leverage is employed to plan the ratio between debt and equity so that earning per
share is improved. Following is the significance of financial leverage:
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 18
1) Planning of Capital Structure: The capital structure is concerned with the raising of
long-term funds, both from shareholders and long-term creditors. The effects of
borrowing on cost of capital and financial risk have to be discussed before selecting a
final capital structure.
2) Profit planning: The earning per share is affected by the degree of financial leverage.
If the profitability of the concern is increasing then fixed cost funds will help in
increasing the availability of profits for equity shareholders. Therefore, financial
leverage is important for profit planning.
3) Financial Leverage is said to be a “Second phase Leverage” as it starts off at the point
where the operating leverage stops.
Limitations of financial leverage:
1) Double-edged weapon: It can be successfully employed to increase the earnings of the
shareholders only when the rate of earnings of the company is more than the fixed rate
of interest. On the other hand, if it does not earn as much as the cost of interest bearing
securities, then it will work adversely and hence cannot be employed.
2) Increases risk and rate of interest: Another fact is that every rupee of extra debt
increases the risk and hence the rate of interest on subsequent loans also goes on
increasing. It becomes difficult for the company to obtain further debts without offering
extra securities and higher rates of interest reducing their earnings.
3) Restrictions from financial institutions: The financial institutions also impose
restrictions on companies which resort to excessive trading on equity because of the
risk factor and to maintain a balance in the capital structure of the company.
2. Operating leverage:
There are two major classifications of costs in the organization. They are,
a) Fixes cost
b) Variable cost
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 19
The operating leverage has a bearing on fixed costs. The operating leverage will be at a
low degree when fixed costs are less in the production process. Operating leverage
shows the ability of a firm to use fixed operating cost to increase the effect of change
in sales on its operating profits. It shows the relationship between the changes in sales
and the charges in fixed operating income. Thus the operating leverage has impact
mainly on fixed cost, variable cost and contribution.
Contribution o Operating Leverage =
EBIT / Operating profit
Characteristics of Operating leverage:
a) The concept of operating leverage cannot be applied at the breakeven level, because the
operating profit becomes zero.
b) The operating leverage is the reciprocal (inverse) of the Margin of Safety. In view of
the reciprocal relationship, the inference is that higher the operating leverage, lower
will be the margin of safety and higher risk to the company.
c) The operating leverage decreases as the level of production or activity increases,
provided that other things remain the same.
d) The operating leverage is a function of three factors;
i. The amount of fixed cost.
ii. The contribution.
iii. Volume of sales.
e) For levels of activity below the break-even level, operating leverage is negative.
Significance of Operating Leverage:
It is used to know the impact of earnings per share and the price-earnings ratio.
Operating Leverage is based on the principle of marginal costing, where breakeven
point can be calculated at different level of sales.
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 20
Any change in sales due to the change in operating cost results in higher operating
profits.
Therefore, Operating Leverage is said to be “First phase Leverage” which
magnifies the profit due to change in sales volume.
3. Combined leverage:
This leverage shows the relationship between a change in sales and the corresponding
variation in taxable income. If the management feels that a certain percentage change in
sales would result in percentage change to taxable income they would like to know the
level or degree of change and hence they adopt this leverage. Thus, degree of leverage
is adopted to forecast the future study of sales levels and resultant increase/decrease in
taxable income.
o Combined Leverage = Operating Leverage × Financial Leverage
Contribution EBITo Combined Leverage = ×
EBIT / Operating profit EBT
Contribution o Combined Leverage =
Earnings before tax [EBT]
Financial Risk :
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 21
Financial Leverage not only maximizes the returns to shareholders but also exposes the
firm to high financial risk, (if it is unplanned). The theory says ‘leverage effect can be
enjoyed only up to a particular point of time or stage’, (if all other things are favorable).
If it crosses the expected line (more debt and less equity), increases the financial risk
(interest burden) and ultimately it leads to insolvency. Capital structure only through
equity is also not favorable to the company, as it reduces EPS, (because of non-
existence of debt capital). The entire earnings of the company will be taxable, as a
result of this, it has to declare lower percentage of dividend, in the long run, it would
directly affect the market value of shares.
Business Risk :
Business risk is related to the investment decisions or assets mix of the firm. Business
risk may be defined as the variability in return on assets. Such variability is the result of
internal and external environment, in which the firm has to operate. Given the
environment in which the firm has to operate, business risk is an unavoidable risk.
Therefore, it is the basic duty of the financial executives to take both the risks in taking
financial as well as investment decisions.

INDUSTRY AND COMPANY PROFILE
3.1 INDUSTRY PROFILE
Introduction
A valve is a device that is used to control the flow of fluids (liquids, gases, fluidized solids, and
slurries) by opening closing or partially obstructing various passageways. The valves can
V.V.N DEGREE COLLEGE Page 28
function or actuate either manually or automatically. With manual valves, an external force is
necessary to actuate the valve while automatic valves are self actuating valves that operate
freely without any external source; they rather need external mechanical devices to function.
Most of the valves have closed as their default position and need some form of external
intervention to function. Fail safe valves return to their actual position (open or close) when the
external force is removed some valves also have a default position of open and they remain
open until closed for special purposes. Common types of valves include gate valves, butterfly
valves, globe valves, ball valves, etc.
Industry scenario
The industrial valve industry is made up of relatively small number of large global business
and a very large number of small to medium-size manufacturing companies many of which
specialize in niche markets, products or applications. The markets in the developed countries
are now relatively mature and are expected to show little growth for new products in the next
few years and the growth in the developed market will be concentrated on the replacement
market that is one third of the total valve market. Russia, France, the United Kingdom and

Industrial production of valves in India (Fy03 - Fy07)
Increasing price sensitivity in the valve market
Valve industry has become much more price and cost sensitive. There has been downward
pressure on the prices with end users demanding very tight costing from plant manufacturers in
difficult markets due to economic conditions. These price cuts are then transmitted down the
purchasing trials of the valve manufacturers. Many valve prices are lower than they were few
years ago and this is impacting the size of the markets.
The advancement of technology provides to achieve faster industrial growth. The engineering
sector has wide scope for the development of Indian economy by providing employment,
effective utilization of natural resources and earning the foreign exchange. Industrialization is
mainly to attain higher levels of economic development and well being of the people of
country.

K. Future growth and prospectus :-
Looking forward, the industry displays tremendous potential in generating employment
and boosting entrepreneurship in country. The spate of new investment plans
announced by global and domestic automobile manufacturers promises the emergence
of India as a global hub for auto components.
The industry is transforming, and the boosting demand will see the emergence of
several new payers in industry. The vast market for auto components, and the diverse
products and technology involved ensures a place and role for many. At the same time
the entry of several global automobile manufacturers will bring in more regulation into
the industry and see a pruning of the spurious market. Among the small players in the
unorganized segment, this implies moving away from being standalone companies to
entering into their contact manufacturing or being ancillary units. The newly defined
rules are specialized, development and delivery that hold the key of the success in the
auto component industry.
At KAR MOBILES, they have always taken a long term perspective when preparing
their business strategies. They expect robust all-round growth in the global economy in
the next 10 years. They also believe that the global economy has become more
inclusive. Countries like India and China are now poised to play a larger role in
determining the course of the global economy. Their manufacturing presence in India,
the U.S, Europe and China has positioned them to capture global growth opportunities,
and is also helping downturns, should they occur. In view of this, they are very
optimistic about the future.
KAR MOBILES is a 37 years old company. Since their inspection they have believed
in setting challenging milestones and have worked hard to achieve their goals.

DEGREE OF FINANCIAL LEVERAGE (DFL)
o Financial leverage is concerned with the effect of changes in EBIT on the earnings
available to equity shareholders. It is the ability of the firm to use fixed financial
charges to magnify the effect of changes in EBIT on the EPS.
o EBIT-EPS analysis is widely used method of examining the effect of financial leverage.
High fixed financial cost increases the financial leverage and financial risk. The
financial risk refers to the risk of the firm not being able to cover its fixed financial
cost. In case of default, the firm can be technically forced into liquidation. Larger is the
amount of fixed financial cost the larger is the EBIT required to recover them. DFL
depends on fixed financial cost.
o When firms earn more on the asset purchased with the funds than the fixed cost of their
use, the financial leverage is favorable. Unfavorable leverages occur when the firm
does not earn as much as the firm’s cost.

DEGREE OF OPERATING LEVERAGE (DOL)
o Degree of operating leverage is a measure of business or operating risk of the firm.
Operating risk is the risk of the firm not being able to cover its fixed operating cost.
The larger is the magnitude of such cost, the larger is the volume of sales required to
recover them. Thus, the Degree of Operational Leverage depends on fixed operating
cost.
o High Degree of Operating Leverage (DOL) is GOOD when Sales Revenue is rising
and BAD when they are falling.
o Operating Leverage is favorable when increase in sales volume has a positive effect on
EBIT and unfavorable when decrease in sales volume has a negative effect on EBIT.

DEGREE OF COMBINED LEVERAGE (DCL)
o Degree of Combined Leverage measures the % change in Earnings Per Share (EPS) due
to % change in Sales. It can work in either directions, it is favorable when Sales
increases and unfavorable when Sales decreases.
o Usefulness of DCL lies in the fact that which indicates the effect, the sales changes will
have on EPS. Its potential is also great in the area of choosing financial plans for new
investments.
