CHAPTER ONE
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of study
It is very difficult to give definition to any particular subject matter. Different
scholars have presented the definition or meaning of the same subject matter in different
ways. In the same way the definition of bank given by different scholars also varies.
Though there is no universal definition of bank, the definitions of the writers are
somehow similar to each other’s.
Bank is an institution established by law, which deals with money and credit. In a
common sense, an institution involved in monetary transaction is called bank. So, Bank is
the financial institution, which is especially related with economic transaction. It is an
important financial institution in economy and essential business in the world. It must be
identified by the role and services, they performed in the economy. Banks work as credit
creature, money maker, currency exchanger, transfer etc in the country. Today, Banks are
playing the changes roles in the modern economy and the function of their principal
competitors like finance company, insurance, insurance company, brokerage firm, co-
operative institution etc are also trying to be played the similar roles and function. So,
Bankers are challenging these non- bank competitors by lobbying for expanded authority.
The meaning of bank can be made clear from the following definition.
According to Nepal Commercial Bank Act 2031 B.S. “ A commercial
bank refers to such type of bank which deals in money exchange accepting deposits,
advancing loans and commercial transactions except specific banking related to co-
operatives, agriculture & industry and other objectives.
According to professor Kinsley, “ Bank is an establishment, which awakes
to individual such as advances of money as may be required and safety made to and to
which individual withdrew money when and required by them for use.”.
According to U.S. Law,” Any institution offering deposits subject to
withdraw on demand and making loan of a commercial or business nature is a bank.
Bank can, therefore, be definition which renders a lost of financial services
besides taking deposits and giving loan. Bank provides other much more important
services to its clients and also the Operation of bank, today, is not confined with in the
boundary of a nation. It has spreader the function in different foreign country.

Having the opportunity to pick a bank of my choice for my study I choose
Siddhartha Bank Ltd. For the reason, that it is easily accessible and they would provide
me with all the data and information.
Siddhartha Bank was established by 100% domestic investment. Being a
commercial bank, it provides the greater part of the money/check in the form of deposit.
In this bank, 51% of share is allotted by Nepalese promoters and remaining 49% of shares
allotted to general public of Nepal.
Siddhartha Bank has ever since its establishment been included in banking
services including Working Capital position which happens to be the subject of my study.
Since its establishment in 2002, the Bank has come a long way. The portfolio size
of the Bank has been consistently growing each year. At the end of FY2067-68(2010-
2011), deposit portfolio stood at Rs 21.57 billion while the loan portfolio reached Rs
18.64 billion. The net profit of the Bank stood at Rs 311.4 million. This growth trajectory
is expected to further go up with the infrastructure the bank has been building up over the
recent years. The Bank has installed a new state – of – the – art software FLEXCUBE, an
oracle financial services and software (OFSS) product which is highly regarded
worldwide and has been used by number of international banks. This technology platform
supports the ever widening branch and ATM network that currently stand at 41 and 42
respectively.
The branches have been strategically expanded to meet our existing customer
value chain requirements and to penetrate into new customer segment. Similarly, the bank
has been established a dedicated payment solutions department to look into alternative
delivery channels such as card service, internet Banking, ATMs and Mobile Banking with

this set-up, the bank has been able to delivery technologically driven products and
services to its customers.
1.1.1 Definition and Importance of Working capital
Working capital, also known as net working capital or NWC, is a financial metric
which represents operating liquidity available to a business. Along with fixed assets such
as plant and equipment, working capital is considered a part of operating capital. It is
calculated as current assets minus current liabilities. If current assets are less than current
liabilities, an entity has a working capital deficiency, also called a working capital deficit.
Working Capital = Current Assets – Current Liabilities
A company can be endowed with assets and profitability but short of liquidity if its
assets cannot readily be converted into cash. Positive working capital is required to ensure
that a firm is able to continue its operations and that it has sufficient funds to satisfy both
maturing short-term debt and upcoming operational expenses. The management of
working capital involves managing inventories, accounts receivable and payable and
cash.

1.4 Review of Literature
1.4.1 Net Working Capital
The Working Capital refers to the net current assets i.e. difference between
Current Assets and Current liabilities. Working Capital, sometimes, is also termed as
firm’s liquidity. The larger the net working capital in the firm, larger will be the firm’s
capability to meets its current obligation. Working Capital, however, measures the firm’s
reservoir of the funds. It is calculated by subtracting the current liabilities from the
current assets.
i.e., Working capital = Current assets – current liabilities.
According to Weston and Brigham, “Working capital refers to a firm’s investment in
short term assets such as cash, short term securities, account receivables and inventories”.
According to John J. Hampton, “working capital is defined as all the short term assets
used in daily operation. They consist primarily of cash, marketable securities, account
receivable and inventories”.
According to Shubin, “working capital is the amount of funds necessary to cover the cost
of operating the enterprises”.
According to Mead,Baker and Mallot,” working capital means current assets”.
According to J.S Mill,” The sum of current assets is the working capital of a business “.
According to Gestanburg,” It is ordinarily been defined as the excess of current assets
over current liabilities”.
According to Hogland,” working capital is to consider it as the difference between the
book value of current assets and current liabilities”.

Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
I) Net Working Capital Ratio
Working capital ratio is computed by dividing the working capital by net assets.
Net assets refer to the sum of net working capital and net fixed assets. It can be expressed
as following:
Net working capital ratio = Net working capital
Net assets
[Where, net asset = net working capital + net fixed asset]
1.4.2 Liquidity Ratio
Liquidity ratio is the ratio to analyze current and quick assets. Liquidity refers to the
ability to lay ones hand on cash when needed within no time. And liquidity ratio is the
ratio that measures the liquidity position and short term solvency position of the bank i.e.
bank’s ability to meet its short term obligation and cash needs. Liquidity is the pre-
requisite for the survival of the firm as it checks the liquidity position and the managerial
effectiveness in the working capital and its components.
I) Current Ratio
The current ratio is computed by dividing current assets by current liabilities. It is
the most common measure to calculate the short term solvency. Mathematically, it can be
illustrated as follows:
Current assets
Current ratio =
Current liabilities
11
Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
current assets represent those asset which can be converted into cash within an accounting
period For example: cash, bank balance, marketable securities, account receivable,
inventory, etc. similarly, current liabilities refers to the obligation that must be met within
a year such as short term debt, accrued income, trade creditor, bills payable, bank credit,
outstanding expenses. The current ratio represents margin of safety and higher the ratio,
higher the margin of safety.
II) Quick Ratio
Quick ratio is also termed as Acid Test ratio or liquid ratio. This ratio is computed
by dividing the current assets minus inventories by the current liabilities.
Quick Ratio = Current assets - Inventories
Current Liabilities
Quick assets refer to current assets that can be converted into cash immediately. An asset
is said liquid if it can be converted into cash immediately or reasonably soon without and
loss of the value. Cash, book debts, marketable securities etc are considered to be the
liquid assets.
1.4.3 Correlation Analysis of Siddhartha Bank Ltd
Correlation Analysis is the statistical tool used to describe the degree, where one
variable is related to another. The analysis helps us in determining the degree of
relationship between two or more variables. Correlation measures the extent to which two
random variables move together. The correlation may be positive or negative (i.e., +1 or -
1) and most cases lies between these two extreme values. If both variables are moving in
the same direction, then it is to be positive and vice- versa. And in our context, the
purpose is to find out correlation between working capital & current assets and working
capital & current liabilities over the study period.
(I) Karl Pearson’s Correlation Coefficient
Karl Pearson’s correlation coefficient is one of the popular mathematical tools
to calculate the correlation coefficient between the two variables. It is denoted by
simply ‘r’ and defined as:
xy
12
Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
r =
xy2
Where, x = X - Xy = Y-Y
The value of ‘r’ always lies between -1 and +1 and (r = ±1) denotes the positive
correlation between two variables and (r = - 1) denotes the negative correlation
between two variables.
(II) Probable Error
Probable error of the correlation coefficient is the measure of testing the
reliability of the calculated value of ‘r’. It is denoted by P.E. If r be the calculated
value of r from sample of n pair of observation, then P.E is defined by
1- r2
P.E = 0.6745
n
It is used to interpret, whether the calculated value of r is significant or not. If r <
P.E, it is insignificant, so there may not be evidence of correlation. And if r > 6
P.E, it is significant.
1.4.4 Trend Analysis of Siddhartha Bank Ltd
Trend Analysis is a series formed by a group of statistical data arranged in
accordance with their time of occurrence. It is least square method used in this
study. The analysis shows the relationship between two variables in which one is
time. The equation of the straight line trend is
Yc = a + bx….. (i

2. RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
2.1 Research Design:
The research methodology is the process of arriving to the solution of the
problems through planned and systematic dealing with the collection, analysis and
interpretation of facts and figures. As the research entirely consists about the “saving
deposit analysis of the Siddhartha bank “,the main purpose of this study are to show
deposits and its utilization in SBL financial position, collection and uses of funds, its
prospects and its position in the context of Nepal as well as recommend suggestion for its
implement. This research methodology has been used which proves helpful to deposit
analysis. For the purpose of achieving the objective, the following methodology is used
acquiring various kinds of reports, Bulletins and journals from the organization. Similarly
the data has been acquired from SBL also.
The study report is based mostly on secondary information of SBL. In addition to
this reference has been made in library consult, class lecture, books related to banking,
financial management and accounting during the preparation of this report.
2.2 Types of Methodology in Research:
Collection of data means the methods that are used for getting the necessary
information from the units under investigation. The method of collecting the data depends
upon the nature, object & the scope of the inquiry. There are two types of data:
(a) Primary Data
(b) Secondary Data
According to Selltiz, Wrightsman and Cook as quoted by Ritchie (1989) the
purpose of various data collection techniques are to produce truth worthy evident that is
relevant to the research question being asked.
18
Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
(a) Primary Data:
The first hand data, which is collected by the researcher himself, is primary data.
The data are thus originated in character. These types of data are obtained in the survey
and inquire conducted by Government, some individual institutions & research bodies.
This fieldwork is based, to some extent, on the primary data collected from the concern
sample group of officers working in SBL. The different sets of questionnaire used in the
collection of primary data are given in appendix I & II.
(b) Secondary Data:
Any data, which are already published in other sources, like book, newspaper,
website, etc. is secondary data. For this purpose of this fieldwork, I have collected the
secondary data from the following sources:
01. 2063/64, 2064/65. 2065/66, 2066,67 and 2067/68 Annual report of EBL.
02. Field work report of previous BBS II year.
03. Other related Manuals & Bulletins stamen published by SBL.
2.3 Data Processing Technique:
The data collected from the above stated sources has been classified, tabulated
and interpreted for easier study. Research was conducted on the basis of observation,
work experience, customer interaction, prepareation of questionnaires and interaction w
ith department heads and senior assistance. For the purpose of collection data we also
used the following methods which are as listed here below:
a. Questionnaire Method:
This method is an instrument consting of a series of questions and other prompts
for the purpose of gathering information from respondts. We provided with open-ended
question so, it was easy and quick method to get required information from the
respondents. It does not require much effort as in verbal or some other collection
procedure.
19
Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
b. Sampling Method:
As the time limit for the internship period was very limited we have used quota
sampling method in the process of survey to get required information. Here we can decide
the number of people we want to sample and conduct survey. So this process is less time
consuming and quite important enough to get required information.
2.4 Diagrammatic Representation of Data:
Various diagrams are used to present the data more clearly. The diagrams used are as
follows:

2010/11 23,710,408,870 22,144,697,200 1,565,711,670
Total 63,459,962,080 59,146,604,990 4,313,912,090
(Sources: Annual Report of SBL)
.
The above table shows working capital trend of Siddhartha Bank Limited for three
years from fiscal year 2009 to 2011. The working capital for the year 2009 was Rs.
1,162,337,810 (i.e. Rs17,537,573,410-16,375,235,600), 2010 was Rs. 1,585,862,610 (i.e.
22,211,979,800-20,626,117,190), and 2011 was Rs. 1,565,711,670 (i.e. 23,710,408,870-
22,144,697,200). Above working capital is derived by deducting current liabilities from
current assets i.e. WC = CA – CL.
In above table, the total current assets exceeds the total current liabilities i.e. Rs
63,459,962,080 > 59,146,604,990 which means the liquidity position of the company is
strong. The difference between the total current assets and total current liabilities i.e
working capital is Rs. 4,313,912,090. The creditors of the bank are satisfied and have
good faith over the bank.

From the above calculation, the correlation coefficient ‘r’ is 0.939 which is nearly +1.
Therefore, it shows the high degree of positive correlation between working capital and
current assets. Now, to find out whether the value of r is significant or not, we calculate
the probable error. So,
1- r2
P.E = 0.6745
n

Since, r > 6P.E so the correlation coefficient is significant. Hence, there is positive
relationship between WC and CA.

For year 2012,
Yc = a + bx
= 143.79 + 20.17
For year 2013,
Yc = 143.79 + 20.17
For year 2014,
Yc = 143.79 + 20.17
The above calculation clearly shows that the value of working capital is increasing each
year. The trend value of WC for three years has been calculated. For the year 2012, 2013
and 2014, the values are184.13, 204.3 and 224.47 respectively.
Trend line showing the trend value of WC from 2012 to 2014
Figure 3.6 Trend Value
In the above figure, the working capital trend line is increasing for the three years so that
the trend line has upward slope from the year 2012 to 2014. Therefore the upward trend
line shows the high profit and a positive sign to the company.
3.7 Study Result:

Working capital position of Siddhartha Bank Limited
During the study period of Siddhartha Bank limited from 2004 to 2011, we found
that there was excess amount of current assets than current liabilities and the working
capital is also increasing yearly. This shows more current assets had been invested than
the current liabilities in each year. However, there was no uniformity in increasing of the
working capital. By the study we found following results:
The calculation of working capital shows that the current asset exceeds current liabilities and the working capital is also increasing yearly.
The working capital trend line is increasing yearly which means it is upward sloping.
The study results the positive relationship between WC and CA and indicates a favorable position of the company.
The current ratio is also increasing and above the standard and sound.

CHAPTER FOUR
SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION
4.1 Summary
Generally, the liquidity position of any company is measured by the working
capital. A company should have sufficient amount of the working capital in order to be
able to meet the claims of the creditors and meeting the day to day needs of the business.
Shortage of working capital is the prime sign of financial crisis. Working capital for an
organization indicates its potential reservoir of the funds. So working capital is an
important topic.
This study primarily focuses in examining the working capital of Siddhartha Bank ltd.
The main objective is to measure the current trend of working capital, its level, based on
the current assets and current liabilities. The result of analysis shows the positive
correlation between CA and WC and negative correlation between CL and WC. The trend
line of working capital shows the upward slope from the year 2008/09 to 2009/10 and
downward slope from 2009/10 to 2010/11. The current ratio also matches the standard
and is in sound position.
This study is based on the financial data which are collected from financial statement
namely balance sheet, income statement etc. for the three years from 2009/10 to 2010/11.

4.2 Conclusion
Greater the working capital, greater the liquidity of the company. Large working
capital shows the strength of the company. And the study also reveals the sound position
of the working capital of the bank. However, holding large amount of current assets is an
expensive affair. We can conclude the study in following ways:
The weight of CA is greater than weight of CL throughout the study period
whose difference creates working capital.
The working capital is increasing year by year.
The relation of WC with CA and CL is good and the trend value is also
increasing yearly i.e. the trend line has upward sloping.
The current ratio in the year was 1.07, 1.08 and 1.07 in the years 2008/09,
2009/10 and 2010/11 respectively. The ratio also shows sound position of the current
assets over the current liabilities and was in increasing trend.
4.3 Recommendation
The company is in strong position, it is sound in working capital and ratios too
show sound economic condition.
The level of working capital is increasing. But holding excessive current assets is
however expensive. So maintaining the CA in current position is prime requirement.
The current ratios also were at the standard level, so more focus is to be done for
maintaining the current levels of current ratios.
The current liabilities were also decreasing so investing on the current liabilities
also should be reduced maintaining the standard current ratio and uniform trend slope.
