Abstract
Financial ratios often act as a yardstick for the board of directors or shareholders (presentand would-be as well) to measure a companys performance. These ratios also serve as a
means to examine and establish new propositions and hypotheses. These ratios can be
obtained or derived from the corresponding organizations financial statements. Likewise,to find out a relationship (or no-relationship, at all) between two important ratios, namely,
profitability and liquidity ratio, we used and dissected financial statements of three
organizations. We focused on a particular industry to avoid confusion and interruption oftoo many unaccounted factors. We took data of three financial institutions to judge the
hypothesis that profitability and liquidity ratios indeed do have a relationship.
Objective
The main objective of this paper is to examine and observe the relationship between two
important types of financial ratios, liquidity and profitability ratios in context of financial
organizations. A trend analysis has also been done of these two through this process.

Introduction
Financial statement analysis is a technique that is used frequently to analyze accountingand other data. Financial ratios represent short-term measures of operating performance
rather than the more relevant long-term performance. Profitability and liquidity ratios are
twp such measures that help provide an overview of a companys operation andperformance. Profitability ratios measure the firm's use of its assets and control of its
expenses to generate an acceptable rate of return where as Liquidity ratios measure the
availability of cash to pay debt. Theoretically these two have no certain intersecting pointas both are calculated considering different factors related. Moreover, conventional
financial statement analysis alone is not sufficient to serve as a basis to judgment and
come upon a decision. But as per the requirements of the course we proceed with the
financial data available and tried to come to a conclusion.

Methodology
The information required to prepare the report was obtained from the annual reports ofthe three financial institutes, Delta Brac Housing Finance Corporation Ltd., Premier Bank
and Union Capital Limited. Since we cannot avail more, we took 5 years data from each
of these companies. Among various methods of profitability ratios we chose 5, Operating Income Ratio, Net Income Ratio, Return on Asset Ratio, Return on Equity Ratio and
Earning per Share (EPS). And we compare each of these ratios with 3 types of liquidity
ratio, Current Ratio, Quick Ratio and Debt-Equity Ratio.
We used the Spearman's Rank Correlation* to establish whether there is any relationship
between Profitability ratio and Liquidity ratio.
* Spearman's Rank Correlation is a technique used to test the direction and strength of the relationship
between two variables. In other words, its a device to show whether any one set of numbers has an effect
on another set of numbers. It uses the statistic Rs which falls between -1 and +1.

Theories behind the Analysis at a glance
Liquidity Ratios
Liquidity Ratios are used to indicate a companys short-term debt-paying ability.
1. Current Ratio: Current Assets
Current Liabilities
A companys current assets divided by its current liabilities is known as current ratio andtests the short-term debt paying ability of a firm.
2. Quick Ratio: Quick Assets
Current LiabilitiesThe quick or act ratio tests a companys ability to meet short-term obligations without
having to rely on inventory. It determines the immediate debt paying ability of a firm.
3. Debt-to-Equity ratio: Total LiabilitiesStockholders' equity
The debt to equity ratio indicates the relative proportion of debt and equity on thecompany's balance sheet.
Profitability Ratios
Operating Income Ratio, Net Income Ratio, Return on Asset Ratio,Return on Equity
Ratio andEarning per Share (EPS)
Return on Equity (ROE)
Net IncomeAverage stockholders equity
From the stockholders point of view, an important measure of the income producingability of a company is the relationship of net income to average common stockholders
equity also called the return on equity (ROE).
Earnings per Share (EPS): Earnings available to common shareholdersNo. of shares outstanding
The earning per share is the most widely used measure of a companys operationalsuccess. It is very important to the investors since it indicates how much they can earn on
each share. The EPS usually plays a major role in determining the market price of a
share.

Procedure for using Spearman's Rank Correlation
1. State the null hypothesis i.e. "There is no relationship between the two sets of
data."2. Rank both sets of data from the highest to the lowest. Make sure to check for tied
ranks.3. Subtract the two sets of ranks to get the difference d.
4. Square the values of d.5. Add the squared values of d to get Sigma d2.
6. Use the formula Rs = 1-(6Sigma d2/n3-n) where n is the number of ranks you have.
7. If the Rs value...... is -1, there is a perfect negative correlation.
...falls between -1 and -0.5, there is a strong negative correlation.
...falls between -0.5 and 0, there is a weak negative correlation.
... is 0, there is no correlation
...falls between 0 and 0.5, there is a weak positive correlation.
...falls between 0.5 and 1, there is a strong positive correlation...is 1, there is a perfect positive correlationbetween the 2 sets of data.
8. If the Rs value is 0, state that null hypothesis is accepted. Otherwise, say it is
rejected.
The following hypotheses have been tested while we applied the Spearmans Rank
Correlation.
H0: There is no significant relationship between the Profitability and the Liquidity.
H1: There is a significant relationship between the Profitability and the Liquidity.

Interpretation of the Financial Ratios
A. DBH:
(i) Liquidity Ratio:
Companys current ratio is in increasing trend. It implies that the company is managing
its assets efficiently. Quick ratio of the company is also in rapid growing trend. It showsthat the companys liquidity situation is very good. But still the point is below 2 for both
current and quick ratio. The company still has more potential improve the liquidity
situation. Debt to equity ratio of the company is in a steady situation. It shows that the
investors can continue to invest in this company.
(ii) Profitability Ratio:
Operating ratios and Net income ratios are in decreasing trend for the company. The
company needs to continue its current profitability growth in the future to retain the
investors confidence on the company.

From the rank correlation findings, we can see that Current ratio and Quick ratio are
correlated with the companys operating and net income and also with the Return on assetand Return on Equity. The ratios are highly correlated with EPS of the company.
Moreover companys operating income is negatively correlated with the current andquick ratio. The fact shows that when you better manage or pay your interest and debts to
the creditors, your operating profit goes down. It implies that the firms asset
management system will highly impact on its profitability. Companys debt-equity ratio
highly correlated with net income, return on equity and EPS. On the other hand debt-equity ratio has no correlation with net income and return on asset. It shows that
companys debt paying status is highly correlated with its net income and shareholders
earnings.

From the rank correlation findings, both Current and quick ratio are positively correlated
with the entire profitability ratio. Among the profitability ratio, the liquidity ratios has
strong correlation with the Operating income and Return on Equity of the Shareholders.On the other hand the profitability ratios have strong negative correlation with the debt-
equity ratio. It implies that as the company debt-equity ratio gone high, the companys
profitability will hamper.

B. Premiere Bank
Premiere Banks profitability and current asset was correlated in last couple of years. Aswe can see, Premiere bank earn the highest profit in 2004 when companys current asset
increase by huge margin. We can see negative correlation between profitability andcurrent asset of the company in last two years. Though companys current asset increase,
but profit falls in back to back two years. It is due to failure of efficient banking operation
of the bank managements, as they are unable to give required loans and creditors to thecustomer.
