INTRODUCTION

1.1. Background of the Study

1.1.1. Meaning of Financial Analysis

Financial statement analysis is the process of analyzing a company's financial statements for
decision-making purposes and to understand the overall health of an organization. Financial
statements record financial data, which must be evaluated through financial statement analysis to
become more useful to investors, shareholders, managers, and other interested parties. It is the
method of evaluating past, present, and projected performance of a company. Analysts track
performance measures across financial statements using several different methods for financial
statement analysis, including vertical, horizontal, and ratio analysis. It helps to analyze whether an
entity is stable, solvent, liquid or profitable enough to warrant a monetary investment. It is
therefore essential to analyze the financial statement to know the actual financial performance and
financial position of the organization.

1.1.2. Elements of the Financial analysis:

Profitability
Profitability is the most common measure of an enterprise including the banking industry.
Profitability refers to the state or condition of yielding or earning a financial profit or gain. It
refers to the ability of the company to use its resources to generate revenues in excess of its
expenses. Similarly, profitability ratios are generally considered to be the basic bank financial
ratio in order to evaluate how well bank is performing in terms of profit. For the most part, if a
profitability ratio is relatively higher as compared to the competitor(s), industry averages,
guidelines, or previous years’ same ratios, then it is taken as indicator of better performance of the
bank.
Liquidity
Liquidity refers to a company's ability to pay its current bills and expenses. In other words,
liquidity relates to the availability of cash and other assets to cover accounts payable, short-term
debt, and other liabilities. It is characterized by the use of converting an asset into money at a
little cost. In the assets side of the balance sheet of the commercial bank, will be liquid assets,
which can be easily converted into cash- such assets are called liquid assets. Liquidity can also be
defined as the bank’s ability to meet immediate maturing liabilities. Liquid assets mainly include
cash and bank balances money at call and short notice, investment in government securities such
as treasury bills, development bonds, saving bonds etc.
The liquidity management function of a bank is regular one. It is known that bank liquidity is the
most sensitive and importance aspect. A bank can’t be imagined without liquidity. The banks and
financial institutions should keep the stock of liquid assets in the ratio of their deposit liability, as
fixed by the Nepal Rastra Bank. The importance of liquidity is as follows:
 To meet the expenses for the banks daily administrative work.
 To pay all sorts of deposits.
 To control the economic fluctuation and to keep safe from the risk.
 To fill the demand of the debtor.
 Providing security to the bank.

Leverage Ratio:
Companies rely on a mixture of owners' equity and debt to finance their operations. A leverage
ratio is any one of several financial measurements that look at how much capital comes in the
form of debt (loans), or assesses the ability of a company to meet financial obligations.

Activity ratio:
Activity ratios measure the relative efficiency of a firm based on its use of its assets, leverage or
other such balance sheet items and are important in determining whether a company's
management is doing a good enough job of generating revenues and cash from its resources.
 1.1.3. Commercial Banking Scenario in Nepal

Nepal Rastra Bank is the central bank of Nepal. It was established in Baisakh 14, 2013 B.S. under
Nepal Rastra Bank Act, 2012. It formulates policy to control the function carried out by the
banks. At present, NRB has allowed the commercial banks to fix the interest rate on deposit as
well as credit on the basis of cost and availability of financial resources. This policy framework
has introduced and element of competitiveness in the financial sectors.
The commercial banks are contributing in the economic development. Resources for economic
development are made available by the commercial banks which ultimately aids to the overall
development of the nation.
In Nepal, “Nepal Bank Limited” was the first commercial bank established in 1994 under Nepal
Bank Act, 1993. Under Banijya Bank Act, 2021 B.S. the government launched “Rastriya Banijya
Bank”. It was fully financed by the government resources. Likewise, “Agriculture Development
Bank” was established on January 2, 1968 under full ownership of the government for the
purpose of developing agriculture sector.
As per the latest data from Nepal Rastra Bank, at present, there are 20 commercial banks, 17
development banks and 57 Microfinance companies operating in Nepal. Currently there are six
joint venture banks in operation in Nepal with their branches located in different part of the
country.

1.3. Statement of Problem

A statement of problem is a brief description of an issue to be addressed or a condition to be

improved upon. It aims in identifying and explaining the problem.
In present context of Nepal, commercial banks have good performance. On the basis of
profitability and productivity of commercial banks, public have confidence in their performance.
However, various environmental factors, state of economy, structure of capital and money
market, government policies, taxation policies and various internal factors have influence upon
financial performance and position of commercial banks. In these circumstances, it is highly
useful to make the study on financial statement of Machhapuchchhre Bank Ltd.
Profitability position and stock prices are the general factors considered for evaluating the
financial performance of Machhapuchchhre Bank Ltd. However, one can raise a question, “Are
these the only factors to reflect the performance of the bank?”

Thus, the main problem of the study, is to inquire into the financial performance of
Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited.
This study is targeted to find out answers to the following questions:
 What is the financial performance of Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited?
 Does the overall financial statement depict the financial position indicating any special
strength and weakness of the Bank?
 Is Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited utilizing its assets efficiently?
 Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited is considered to be operationally efficient. But how far it is
efficient?
In this context, the main purpose of the study is analyzing the financial performance of the
Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited in terms of turnover, profitability, liquidity and efficiency in
operation.

1.4. Objectives of the Study

The main objective of this study is to analyze the Financial Performance of Machhapuchchhre

Bank Limited. However, the specific objectives of study are as follows:

 To evaluate the financial position of Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited.

 To analyze the financial performances through the use of appropriate financial and
analytical tools.
 To identify the profitability position i.e. Earning per share (EPS), Dividend per share
(DPS) and Return on Asset (ROA).
 To measure the liquidity, solvency and efficiency.
 To determine the past, present and projected performance of the company.

1.5. Rationale of the Study

Optimum utilization of fund makes better impact on the economy of the nation. Nepal Bank

exchanges etc.
 Importance to the government bodies or the policy makers such as the central bank
 Interested outside parties such as- investors, customers (depositors as well as credit
takers), and competitors, personnel of the banks, stockbrokers, dealers, and market
makers.
So, this study helps to identify its unseen strength and weakness regarding financial as well as
credit administration.
1.6. Review Of Literature

Literature review is the study of the available literature in one’s field of research. The literature
provides us with the knowledge of the status of their field of research. Past study knowledge
provides foundation to the present study. So, analyzing and presenting the following parts define
this chapter:
i. Origin of Bank
ii. Conceptual/Theoretical review
iii. Review of related journal, articles
Detail explanation of the parts in this chapter is explained below:
i. Origin of Bank
The origin of the word ‘Bank’ is linked to: German word ‘Bank’ means a joint stock company,
Latin word ‘Bank’ means a bench, Italian word ‘Bank’ means a bench and French word ‘banquet’
means a bench. The first bank was set up in Venice, Italy as a public bank, by the name ‘Bank of
Venice’. Subsequently, ‘Bank of Barcelona’ in 1401 A.D. & ‘Bank of Geneva’ in 1407 A.D. were
established. In 1609 A.D, “Bank of Amsterdam’, a famous bank was established. In reality, the
history of modern banking had started from ‘Bank of England’ in 1694 A.D. But the modern joint
stock banks were established in England only in 1833 A.D. In 1844 A.D., ‘Bank of England’ was
established as a first central bank in the world. The ‘Banque De France’ was established in France
in 1807 A.D. Later, the banks were established in other parts of the world.
ii. Theoretical Framework
The main objectives of the bank are to collect deposits as much as possible from the customers
and to mobilize into the most profitable sector. If a bank fails to utilize its collected resources then
it cannot generate revenue. Resource mobilization management of bank includes resource
collection, investment portfolio, loans and advances, working capital, fixed assets management
etc. It measures the extent to which bank is successful to utilize its resources. To measure the
bank performance in many aspects, we should analyze its financial indicator with the help of
financial statements.
Financial analysis is the process of identifying the financial strength and weakness of the
concerned bank. It is the process of finding strength and weakness of the concerned bank.
Financial statement analysis is a method of reviewing and analyzing a company's
accounting reports (Financial
statements) in order to gauge its past, present or projected future performance. This process of
reviewing the financial statements allows for better economic decision making.
It is performed to determine the following:
 Profitability
 Liquidity
 Solvency
 Efficiency
The function or the performance of finance can be broken down into three major decisions i.e. the
investment decision, the financing decision, and the dividend decisions. An optional combination
of the three decisions will maximize the value of the firm.

iii. Review of literature

According to Brigham E.F., L.G. Gapenski, (1992), “financial analysis means assessing the
viability, stability and profitability of a project. It also includes techniques used for
determining the needs of a business.”
According to Ross, Peter S, (2000), “Financial analysis refers to the assessment of a business to
deal with the planning, budgeting, monitoring, forecasting, and improving of all financial details
within an organization.”
Tarawneh (2006) analyzed the financial statement of five Omani banks for the financial period
1999-2003. In addition, he used simple regression to estimate the impact of asset management,
operation efficiency, and bank size on the financial performance of these banks. The results
showed that financial performance of the banks was strongly and positively influenced by the
operational efficiency, asset management, and bank size.

Almazari (2011) in his study attempted basically to measure the financial performance of seven
Jordanian commercial banks for the period 2005-2009, by using simple regression in order to
estimate the impact of independent variable represented by; the bank size, asset management, and
operational efficiency on dependent variable financial performance represented by; return on
assets and interest income size. It was found that banks with higher total deposits, credits, assets,
and shareholders’ equity do not always mean that has better profitability performance. Also found
that there exists a positive correlation between financial performance and asset size, asset
utilization
and operational efficiency, which was also confirmed with regression analysis that financial
performance is greatly influenced by these independent factors.

Haque and Sharma (2011), their research studied the hypotheses tested imply that there are
significant differences amongst Saudi banks. The financial performance of banks in Saudi Arabia
is studied on the basis of financial variables and ratios through the help of Spearman's' rank
correlation method. Although, benchmarking performance of banks is done using advanced linear
programming models, this study attempts to develop an efficiency frontier on the basis of simple
linear regression. Albeit certain restrictive assumptions, this study identifies Al Rajhi bank to be
the best bank to which other banks could look up to and justifies this model on the basis of
parsimony.

Almumani (2014) the purpose of his study is to analyze and compare the performance of Saudi
banks that listed in stocks market for the period 2007-2011. The study is an evaluator in nature,
drawing sources of information from secondary data. The financial performance of banks is
studied on the basis of financial ratios and variables. Financial performance was measured by two
approaches; trend analysis and inter-firm analysis. It was found that increasing of assets,
operating expenses, and cost to income causes a decrease in Saudi bank’s profitability, while
increasing of operating income causes an increase in the profitability of Saudi Banks. Analysis
shows that all the variables of study have a positive mean value and all banks are generating
income. Saudi joint venture banks proved to be more proficient in generating profits, absorbing
loan losses and dominating in ROE, while, Saudi established banks have more capacity of
absorbing asset losses and dominating in ROA.

Kumal (2015) evaluated the financial performance of M/s Kumari Bank Limited, a commercial
bank in Nepal taking the period of three financial years in considerations, from FY 2011/12 to FY
2012/13. The results showed that the financial position of M/s Kumari Bank Limited is
satisfactory and in good position.

In the Gulf, Samad (2004) investigated the performance of seven locally incorporated commercial
banks during the period 1994-2001. Financial ratios were used to evaluate the credit quality,
profitability, and liquidity performances. The performance of the seven commercial banks was
compared with the banking industry in Bahrain which was considered a benchmark. The article
applied a Student’s t-test to measure the statistical significance for the measures of performance.
The results revealed that commercial banks in Bahrain were relatively less profitable, less liquid
and were exposed to higher credit risk than the banking

1.7. Method of study

Research is an organized, systematic, data based, critical, scientific enquiry or investigation into
specific problem, undertaken with the objective of finding answers or solutions to it. This study
focuses on the planned and systematic dealing with the collection, analysis and interpretation of
facts and figure. It consists of research design, population and sample study, sources of data, data
processing procedure and technique of analyzing data.
This chapter describes the methodology employed in this study.

For the purpose of achieving the objectives of study, the applied methodology will be used

1.7.1 Research Design:

“Research design is a master plan specifying the methods and procedures for collecting and
analyzing the needed information.” (Zikmund, 2007)

It is the formal plan of action for a research project or a blue print of the research project. It has
the researchers to lay out their research questions, methodologies, implementation procedures,
and data collection and analysis to conduct a research project. The research design then focuses
on the data collection methods, the research instruments utilized, and the sampling plan to be
followed.

Specifically, research design describes the general plan for collecting, analyzing and evaluating
data after identifying the facts and findings.

What the researcher wants to know and What has to be dealt with in order to obtain the required
information? (Wolf & Pant, 2002:50)
It includes an outline of what the investigator will do from writing the hypotheses and their
operational implications to the final analysis of data. Generally, a common research design
possesses the five basic elements viz.

(i) Selection of problem

(ii) Methodology

(iii) Data gathering.

(iv)Data analysis and

(v) Report writing.

1.7.2 Population and Sample

Population refers to the entire group of people, events, or things of interest that the researcher
wishes to investigate. Survey of each and every group of population by researcher is not normally
possible. For the held research, a portion of the population is taken as the representation of the
entire population. Sample of items and elements from the population are taken for conducting our
study. It comprises some observations selected from the population.

There are altogether 28 commercial banks functioning all over the nation and most of their stocks
are traded actively in the stock market. Here MBL have been selected as sample for our study.
Similarly, financial statements of this bank for 5 years have been taken as samples for the same
purpose.

1.7.3 Nature and Sources of Data

In regards to the primary data, some personal views and ideas of individual respondent are
collected. But in case of entire study, secondary data which are used are basically of the following
nature:

 Most of the data taken for the analysis is collected from the material published by the
concerned banks through their annual reports.
 Since the stock of MBL is listed in NEPSE, the figures are all most reliable and suitable too.
In order to fulfill the objective of this research work, all the secondary data are collected,
processed and tabulated in time series and bar diagram. The reliability of the data complied in the
annual report of the bank is judged and confirmed by an independent auditor.

So, the major sources of secondary data used for this study are as follows:

 Annual Report of MBL (2070/71 to 2074/75)

 Official Website of MBL
 NRB circulars.
 NRB directives.

1.7.4 Data Processing Procedures

Data collected from various sources are in raw form. The method of analysis is directed to find
the actual financial performance of the bank. The obtained data are presented in the tabular form,
diagrams and graph with the supporting interpretation. The collected data are accumulated in
organized way and are grouped for calculation using the method given by the formulas.

1.7.5 Data Analysis Tools

Analysis and presentation of the data is the core of each and every research work. Financial and
statistical tools are considered as the most reliable tools to accomplish the objective of the study.
These tools are used in order to make the analysis more effective, convenient, reliable and
authentic.

The various results obtained with the help of financial, accounting and statistical tools are
tabulated under different headlines. Such results are interpreted to portray the current position and
performance of the bank. Two kinds of tools have been used to achieve the certain goals.

1. Financial Tools

2. Statistical Tools

1. Financial Tools
It basically helps to identify the financial strengths and weakness of the firm by establishing
relationship between the items of the financial position and statement of profit or loss account.
Financial tools are categorized into two parts. They are:

i) Ratio Analysis

Ratio analysis is the powerful tool of financial analysis. “A ratio is a mathematical relationship
between two variables. It is significant for financial analysis. It also helps us to predict the future
performance of a company based on study of ratios of earlier years.” (Benerjee: 1989,95)

Thus, ratio analysis is the part of whole process of analysis of financial statement to make
decision regarding the output and credit for any business and industry. Quantitative relationship
are established by the ratio which facilitates the qualitative judgement to be made. They are
presented below:

1. Liquidity Ratio:
Liquidity refers to a company’s ability to pay its current bills and expenses. So, liquidity ratios are
used to measure the ability of a firm to meet its short-term obligations and from them the present
cash solvency as well as ability to remain solvent in the event of adversities of the same can be
examined. In other words, liquidity relates to the availability of cash and other assets to cover
accounts payable, short-term debt, and other liabilities. It is characterized by the use of converting
an asset into money at a little cost. Liquid assets mainly include cash and bank balances money at
call and short notice, investment in government securities such as treasury bills, development
bonds, saving bonds etc.
i. Cash and Bank Balance to Total Investment Ratio:
This ratio shows the ability of banks immediate funds to cover their investment. Higher the ratio
shows higher liquidity position and ability to cover the deposits and vice versa. It can be
calculated by dividing ‘cash and bank balance’ by deposits. This ratio can be calculated using the
following formula.

Cash and Bank Balance to Total Investment Ratio = Cash and Bank Balance
Total Investment
ii. Cash and Bank Balance to Total Deposits Ratio:
This ratio is computed to disclose the soundness of the company to compute cash and bank
balance made of total deposits. It can be expressed as:
 Cash and Bank Balance
Cash and Bank Balance to Total Deposit Ratio =
Total Deposit
iii. Cash and Bank Balance to Total Assets Ratio:

Cash and Bank Balance to Total Assets Ratio = Cash and Bank Balnce
Total Assets

iv. Current Ratio

Current Ratio is the ratio that indicates the relationship between current assets and current liabilities.

Current Assets
Current Ratio =
Current Liabilities

2. Profitability Ratio:
Profitability refers to the state or condition of yielding or earning a financial profit or gain. It
refers to the ability of the company to use its resources to generate revenues in excess of its
expenses. Similarly, profitability ratios are generally considered to be the basic bank financial
ratio in order to evaluate how well bank is performing in terms of profit. For the most part, if a
profitability ratio is relatively higher as compared to the competitor(s), industry averages,
guidelines, or previous years’ same ratios, then it is taken as indicator of better performance of the
bank.

i) Return on Shareholder’s Fund:

This ratio, also called Return in Proprietor’s Fund or Return in Net worth. It measures the
percentage of net profit to average shareholder’s fund.
Net Profit after Tax
Return on Shareholder′s Fund = X 100
Shareholder′sFund

ii) Return on Total Assets

Return on Total Assets measures the profitability of the total investment of the company.
The ratio is computed by dividing net income after tax by average total assets.
Net Profit after Tax
Return on Total Assets = X 100
Total Assets
iii) Earnings per Share (EPS)
 EPS simply shows the profitability of the firm on a per share basis. It is calculated from the
point of view of the ordinary shareholders.
Earning per share = Net Profit after Tax
X 100
No. of share
iv) Dividend Per Share (DPS):
This ratio is calculated by dividing the Dividend payable to Equity Shareholders by Number
of Equity Shares.

Dividend per share = Dividend Payable to Equity

Shareholders X 100
C. Asset Management Ratio: No. of equity shares outstanding
It is also known as turnover or efficiency ratio or assets management ratio; measures how
efficiently the firm employs the assets. Turnover means; how much number of times the assets
flow through a firm’s operations and into sales (Kulkarni, 1994:138). Greater rate of turnover or
conversion indicates more efficiency of a firm in managing and utilizing its assets, being other
things equal. Various ratios are examined under this heading.

i) Loan and Advances to Total Deposits Ratio:

Commercial banks utilize the outsider’s fund for profit generation purpose. Loan and advances to
deposit ratio shows whether the banks are successful to utilize the outsiders funds (i.e. total
deposits) for the profit generating purpose on the credit and advances or not.
Loan and Advances
Credits and Advances to Total Deposits Ratio =
Total Deposit
ii)Loan and Advances to Fixed Deposit Ratio:
Fixed deposits are the long-term interest bearing obligations and credits and advances is the major
sources of investment. This ratio measures how many times the amount is used in credits and
advances in comparison to fixed deposit for the income generating purpose.
Loan and Advances
Loan and Advances to Fixed Deposit Ratio =
Fixed Deposits
iii)Loan and Advances to Total Assets Ratios:
It measures the ability in mobilizing total assets into credits and advances for profit generating
income. The following formula is used to obtain this ratio.
 Loan and Advances
Loan and Advances to Total Assets Ratio =
Total Assets
2) Statistical Tools

For supporting the study, statistical tools have been used under it.

a) Mean:
The statistical mean refers to the mean or average that is used to derive the central
tendency of the data in question. It is determining by adding all the data points in a
population and then dividing by total number of points.
It can be calculated as:

∑X
Mean =
𝑁

b) Standard Deviation:
Standard deviation is a statistic used as a measure of the dispersion in a distribution, equal
to the square root of the arithmetic mean of the squares of the deviations from the
arithmetic mean.
It can be calculated as:

S.D. ∑(𝑋−𝑀𝑒𝑎𝑛)2
√ 𝑁
=

c) Coefficient of variance:
It is a standardized measure of dispersion of a profitability distribution. It is often
expressed as a percentage, and is defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the
mean.

It can be calculated as:

S.D

 It is only for partial fulfillment of Bachelor of Business Studies (BBS).
 CHAPTER - II

RESULTS AND

FINDINGS

2.1 Introduction:
This chapter deals with the presentation, analysis and interpretation of relevant data of
Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited to fulfill the objective of this study. According to the research
methodology as mentioned in the third chapter of this study the data have been analyzed
competently. The purpose of this chapter is to introduce mechanism of data analysis and
interpretation. Different type of analytical methods and tools such as financial ratio analysis and
statistical analysis are used.

2.2 Financial Statement Analysis:

Financial statement analysis is the process of analyzing a company’s financial statement for
decision making purposes and to understand the overall health of an organization. Financial
analysis is done by applying various financial tools in order to have clear picture on the viability
of the project. It is the method of evaluating past, present, and projected performance of a
company. The financial analysis is done to ascertain the liquidity, profitability, leverage, debt
servicing and interest servicing ability of the firm. The concept of financial statement analysis has
been already discussed in previous chapter. Here, we study and analyze the data by using
accounting tools.

2.2.1 Liquidity Ratio:

Liquidity refers to the ability of a firm to meet its short- term or current obligations. So liquidity
ratios are used to measure the ability of a firm to meet its short-term obligations. Inadequate
liquidity can lead to unexpected cash short falls that must be covered 5at excessive costs reducing
profitability. In the worst case, inadequate liquidity can lead to the liquidity insolvency of the
institution. To find - out the ability of the bank to meet their short-term obligations, which are
likely to mature in the short period, the following ratios are developed under the liquidity ratios to
identify the liquidity position.
i) Cash and Bank Balance to Investment Ratio:
This shows the ratio between cash & bank balance to Investment. Cash and bank balance is the
outcome of deposit of customers plus other income and reserves of the bank. Bank is liable to
customer to pay out upon demand of customers so we are trying to find the comparative study
between them.

The above Table 1 and Figure 1 reveals that the Cash and Bank Balance to Total Investment ratio
is increasing since 2073/74 and 2074/75. MBL’s Cash and Bank Balance to Total Investment
ratio is the highest of 2.1 times in 2074/75 and lowest in year 2072/73 of 1.3 times. Ratios over
the past five years are found to be decreased in the year 2071/72 and 2072/73. However, the ratios
are found to be increased in the year 2073/74 and 2074/75.
The average is 1.76 times which is greater than 1. Thus, it means that MBL is able to meet the
demand of current depositors during the research period.
Similarly, the standard deviation of the data analyzed is 0.28 which is lower than the mean, it
reveals that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the cash and bank balance and total
investment values are less volatile.
Likewise, the CV represents the ratio of standard deviation to mean. The CV obtained here is 16
percent which means that the ratio of standard deviation to mean is low. Lower the ratio of
standard deviation to mean, the better the risk return trade off. A risk averse investor expecting
low degree of volatility and high degree of return, in relation to overall market and industry may
want to invest in the bank.

ii) Cash and Bank Balance to Total Deposit Ratio:

This cash & bank balance to total deposit ratio shows that percentage relation between them. It
means the liquid balance available in respect to total deposit of the bank whereas the difference
between the cash & bank balance to total deposit is said as the investment of the bank.

The above Table 2 and Figure 2 shows that the cash and bank balance to total deposit ratio of
MBL is in fluctuating trend. MBL’s cash and bank balance to total deposit ratio is highest of 0.3
times in 2071/72 and lower in the year 2070/71 of 0.21 times. Ratio over the past five years in
terms of percentage also reveals the fluctuation. Ratio are found to be increased in the year
2071/72 whereas decreased in the year 2072/73 and 2073/74. However, the ratio has subsequently
increased in the year 2074/75.
The average is 0.25 which is lower than 1. It means that MBL has more total deposit than cash
and bank balance. In this situation, there is insufficient cash on hand to pay off all the deposit of
the customers. This may not be the bad news if the bank has the condition to extend normal credit
terms to the suppliers and very little credit extended to its customers.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 0.034 which is very much lower than the
mean, it means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And cash and bank balance and
total deposit are less volatile.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 14percent which means that the ratio of SD to mean is low.
Lower the ratio of SD to mean, better the risk return trade off.
iii) Cash and Bank Balance to Total Assets Ratio:
This cash and bank balance to total assets ratio shows the relation between them. The cash flows
to total assets ratio shows investors how efficiently the business is at using its assets to
collect cash from sales and customers.

Table 3 and Figure 3 shows that the cash and bank balance to total assets ratio of MBL is in
fluctuating trend. MBL’s cash and bank balance to total deposit ratio is highest of 0.25 times in
2071/72 and lower in the year 2073/74 of 0.18 times. Ratio over the past five years in terms of
percentage also reveals the fluctuation. Ratio are found to be positive in the year 2071/72 by 32
percent whereas decreased in the year 2072/73 by 20 percent and 2073/74 by 10 percent.
However, the ratio has subsequently increased in the year 2074/75 by 22 percent.
The average is 0.21 which is lower than 1. It means that MBL will not be able to pay off all its
liabilities with available cash and cash equivalents.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 0.024 which is much lower than the mean, it
means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And cash and bank balance and total
assets are less volatile.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 12 percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is low.
Lower the ratio of SD to mean, better the risk return trade off.

iv) Current Ratio

This ratio is used to find the relation between current assets and current liabilities of the bank. The
current ratio is a liquidity ratio that measures a company's ability to pay short-term obligations or
those due within one year.

Current Ratio = Current Asset

Current Liabilities

The above Table 4 and Figure 4 shows that the current ratio of MBL is fluctuating over the past
five years. MBL’s current ratio is highest of 0.99 times in 2073/74 and 2074/75 and lower in the
year 2071/72 and 2072/73 of 0.91 times. Ratio over the past five years in terms of percentage also
reveals the fluctuation. Ratio are found to be decreased in the year 2071/72 whereas no change in
the year 2072/73, increasement in the year 2073/74 and again no change in the year 2074/75.
The average is 0.96 which is lower than 1. This shows that the current asset of the company is a
bit not sufficient to meet its current liabilities.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 0.038 which is lower than the mean, it means
that most of the numbers are close to the average. And volatility of current assets and current
liabilities are less
Likewise, the CV represents the ratio of standard deviation to mean. The CV obtained here is 4
percent which means that the ratio of SD to mean is low. Lower the ratio of SD to mean, better
the risk return trade off.

2.2.2 Profitability Ratio:

A profitability ratio is a measure of profitability, it is a way to measure a company's performance.

Profitability is simply the capacity to make a profit. A profit is what is left over from income
earned after one has deducted all costs and expenses related to earning the income. It refers to the
ability of the company to use its resources to generate revenues in excess of its expenses.
Profitability ratios are generally considered to be the basic bank financial ratio in order to evaluate
how well bank is performing in terms of profit.
i) Return on Shareholder’s Fund:
This ratio, also called Return in Proprietor’s Fund or Return in Net worth. It measures the
percentage of net profit to average shareholder’s fund.

The above Table 5 and Figure 5 shows that the Return on shareholders fund of MBL is in
decreasing trend. MBL’s Return on shareholders fund is the highest of 28 percent in 2070/71 and
lowest in year 2074/75 of 17 percent. Ratios over the past five years are found to be decreased
every year. The return on shareholder’s fund is found to be minimum in 2074/75 at 17 percent.
The average is 20.8 percent which means that the return on shareholders fund is 20.8 percent of
net profit on average.
Similarly, the standard deviation of the data analyzed is 4.35 percent which is lower than the
mean, it reveals that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the net profit after tax and
shareholders fund are less volatile.
Likewise, the CV represents the ratio of standard deviation to mean. The CV obtained here is 21
percent which means that the ratio of standard deviation to mean is low. Lower the ratio of
standard deviation to mean, the better the risk return trade off. A risk averse investor expecting
low degree of volatility and high degree of return, in relation to overall market and industry may
want to invest in the bank.

ii)Return on Total Assets

Return on Total Assets measures the profitability of the total investment of the company.
The ratio is computed by dividing net income after tax by average total assets. The ratio is
calculated to measure the profit after tax against the amount invested in total assets to
ascertain whether assets are being utilized properly or not.

The above Table 6 and Figure 6 shows that the Return of Total Asset of MBL is in fluctuating
trend. MBL’s return on total assets is highest of 2.2 percent in 2070/71 and lower in the year
2072/73 of 1.5percent. Ratio over the past five years in terms of percentage also reveals the
fluctuation. Ratio are found to be decreased in the year 2071/72 and 2072/73 whereas increase in
the year 2073/74 and 2074/75.
The average is 1.76 percent which means that MBL needs to increase the efficiency of assets
utilization to increase the earning.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 0.00058 percent which is much lower than
the mean, it means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the volatility is lesser
between the values.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 0.033 percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is
low. Lower the ratio of SD to mean, better the risk return trade off.
iii)Earnings per Share (EPS)
EPS simply shows the profitability of the firm on a per share basis. It is calculated from the
point of view of the ordinary shareholders.

Ratio over the past five years in terms of percentage also reveals the fluctuation. Ratio are found
to be decreased in the year 2071/72 by 9 percent whereas increase in the year 2072/73 by 10
percent. Again, there has been decrease in the year 2072/73 by 62 percent and further increase by
30 percent in the year 2074/75 as compare to the relative previous year.
The average is Rs. 65.2 which means that MBL shows promising return in terms of EPS in future.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is Rs. 22.62 which is lower than the mean, it
means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the volatility is lesser between the
values.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 35 percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is
medium. iv)Dividend Per Share (DPS):
This ratio is calculated by dividing the Dividend payable to Equity Shareholders by Number
of Equity Shares.

The above Table 8 and Figure 8 shows that the dividend per share of MBL is in fluctuating trend.
MBL’s dividend per share is highest of Rs.51 in 2070/71 and lowest in the year 2073/74 of Rs.2.
Ratio over the past five years in terms of percentage also reveals the fluctuation. Ratio are found
to be decreased in the year 2071/72, 2072/73, and 2073/74. However, the ratio has highly
increased in the year 2074/75.
The average is Rs. 18.4 which means that MBL has distributed favorable income as dividend to
the investors.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is Rs. 18.52 which is higher than the mean, it
means that the numbers are more spread out. And the volatility is higher between the values.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 101 percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is
very high.

2.2.3 Assets Management Ratio:

It is also known as turnover or efficiency ratio or assets management ratio. It measures how
efficiently the firm employs the assets. The asset turnover ratio measures the value of a company's
sales or revenues relative to the value of its assets. The asset turnover ratio can be used as an
indicator of the efficiency with which a company is using its assets to generate revenue. Higher
the asset turnover ratio, the more efficient a company. Conversely, if a company has a low asset
turnover ratio, it indicates it is not efficiently using its assets to generate sales.

i) Loan and Advances to Fixed Deposit Ratio:

Loan and advances are the assets of the bank and fixed deposit is the liability. So, this is the ratio
between assets and liability. This helps to show the ratio of Loan & advances to fixed deposit. We
can also conclude that what part of the credit and advances is initiated against fixed deposit.

The above Table 9 and Figure 9 shows that the loan and advances to fixed deposit ratio of MBL
is in increasing trend. MBL’s loan and advances to fixed deposit ratio is highest of 57 percent in
2074/75 and lowest in the year 2070/71 of 31 percent. Ratio over the past five years in terms of
percentage also reveals the increasing trend. Ratio are found to be increased continuously since
2070/71 to 2074/75.
The average is 41.9 percent which means earning of MBL is insufficient to cover unforeseen
fund requirement.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 9.2 percent which is lower than the mean, it
means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the volatility is lesser between the
values.
Likewise, the CV shows the extent of variability of the data in relation to the mean of the
population. The CV obtained here is 22 percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is low.
Lower the ratio of standard deviation to mean, the better the risk return trade off.
ii)Loan and Advances to Total Deposit Ratio:
Loan and advances is the investing activities of the bank and total deposit is the deposit amount of
the bank collected from its customers. This ratio measures the extent to which the bank is
successful to manage its total deposit on loan and advances for the purpose of income generation.
A high ratio indicates better mobilization of collected deposit and vice-versa. However, it should
be noted that too high ratio might not be better from liquidity point of view.

The above Table 10 and Figure 10 shows that the loan and advances to total deposit ratio of MBL
is fluctuating trend. MBL’s loan and advances to total deposit ratio is highest of 82 percent in
2074/75 and lowest in the year 2071/72 of 66 percent. Ratio over the past five years in terms of
percentage also reveals the fluctuating trend. Ratio are found to be decreased in the year 2071/72.
However, the ratios have continuously increased since 2072/73 to 2074/75.
The average of loan and advances to total deposit ratio is 75.6 percent which means credit
management of MBL is in good position.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 6 percent which is lower than the mean, it
means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the volatility is lesser between the
values.
Likewise, the CV shows the ratio of standard deviation to mean. The CV obtained here is 8
percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is low. Lower the ratio of standard deviation to
mean, the better the risk return trade off.
iii) Loan and Advances to Total Assets Ratio:
This ratio is determined to find out the relationship between credit & advances to total assets.
Loan and advances is the part of total assets. This ratio helps to find out that how much proportion
of credit & advances to total assets.

The above Table 12 and Figure 12 shows that the loan and advances to total asset ratio of MBL is
in fluctuating trend. MBL’s loan and advances to total asset ratio is highest of 68percent in
2070/71 and lowest in the year 2071/72 of 55percent. Ratio over the past five years in terms of
percentage also reveals the fluctuating trend. Ratio are found to be decreased in the year 2071/72
by 19 percent whereas ratio has increased in the year 2072/73 and 2073/74 by 9 percent and 10
percent respectively and further ratio has decreased by 2 percent in the year 2074/75.
The average of loan and advances to total asset ratio is 63 percent which shows that the capability
of utilizing the asset of the bank is good.
Similarly, the standard deviation of data analyzed is 4.7 percent which is lower than the mean, it
means that most of the numbers are close to the average. And the volatility is lesser between the
values.
Likewise, the CV shows the ratio of standard deviation to mean. The CV obtained here is 8
percent which reveals that the ratio of SD to mean is low. Lower the ratio of standard deviation to
mean, the better the risk return trade off.

SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION

3.1 Summary
The study is mainly based on secondary sources. All data are taken from MBL annual report,
literature publication, balance sheet, profit and loss account, different website, related books and
booklets, journals and articles. After collecting data from different sources, it is analyzed by using
financial and statistical tools. Findings are drawn by applying various financial tools viz.
liquidity, profitability and assets management ratio and statistical tools: mean, standard deviation
and coefficient of variation of cash and bank balance and total deposit. In an attempt to fulfill the
objectives of the research work, all secondary data are compiled, processed and tabulated as per
necessity and figures, diagrams and different types of chart are also used.

This study suffers from different Limitation; it considers study of only MBL because of time and
resource are the constraints of the study. For the purpose of our study, here we have analyzed the
financial performance of Machhapuchchhre Bank Limited over the period of FY 2070/71 to FY
2074/75. To evaluate the financial performance of the bank, we have divided the whole report to
different chapters. In every chapter, there are several sub-chapters. The first Introduction chapter
gives background information about the project work, introduction of Machhapuchchhre Bank
Limited, Review related studies etc. The second chapter called Presentation and Analysis of Data;
we tried to analyze the financial performance of the bank. Therefore, the study may not be
generalized in all cases and accuracy depends upon the data collected and provided by the
organization.

3.2 Conclusion
Major findings from the study leads to the conclusion of our study. The following are the findings
from our study:
 Cash and Bank Balance to Total Investment Ratio of the bank shows the increasing trend
during the study period. The mean ratio is above 1 which means that MBL is able to meet
the demand of current depositors during the research period.
 Considering the Cash and Bank balance to total deposit ratio of MBL, it shows that total
deposit of MBL is increasing as compare to cash and bank balance. The mean ratio is 0.25
 times, It shows that the bank has the condition to extend normal credit terms to the
suppliers and very little credit extended to its customers.
 Cash and Bank Balance to Total Assets Ratio of the bank depicts that MBL is able to
maintain satisfactory financial condition. The current ratio of the bank is 0.96 which
shows that the current liabilities of the bank is higher than the current assets. Thus, the
bank either needs to decrease its current liabilities or increase its current assets, so that the
current ratio would be equal or greater than one.
 Return on shareholders fund shows that the bank is earning 20.8 percent of net profit after
tax against shareholders fund on average which shows good profitability position.
 The average of Return on total assets is 1.76 percent which means that MBL needs to
increase the efficiency of assets utilization to increase the earning.
 EPS of the bank has decreased significantly in the year 2073/74. However, it has been
observed that the EPS has increased by 30 percent in the year 2074/75, which shows that
MBL has promising return in terms of EPS in future.
 Considering the DPS, it is seen that dividend distributed by the bank has increased
significantly in the year 2074/75 to Rs.27 per share from Rs.2 per share of 2073/74. From
the study it is known that the bank distributes favorable portion of income as dividend to
the shareholders. However, the huge fluctuation does not show promising security to the
shareholders in terms of dividend.
 Loan and Advances to Fixed Deposit ratio, loans and advances are assets of the bank
whereas fixed deposit is the liability of the bank. This ratio depicts what part of the credit
and advances is initiated against fixed deposit. The average obtained is 41.9 percent which
means earning of MBL is insufficient to cover unforeseen fund requirement.
 Loan and Advances to Total deposit ratio measures the extent to which the bank is
successful to manage its total deposit on loan and advances for the purpose of income
generation. A high ratio indicates better mobilization of collected deposit and vice-versa.
The average of loan and advances to total deposit ratio is 75.6percent which means credit
management of MBL is in good position.
 Loan and Advances to Total Assets ratio helps to find out that how much proportion of
credit & advances is total assets. The average of loan and advances to total asset ratio is
63percent which shows that the capability of utilizing the asset of the bank is good.
