The operating cycle consists of there phases. In phase I cash gets converted into inventory this includes purchase of raw materials conversion of raw materials into work In progress finished goods & finally the transfer of goods to stock at the end of the manufacturing process in the cash of trading organizations this hose is shorter as there would be no manufacturing activity and cash is directly converted into in directly converted into inventory the phase is , on course totally in the case of service organizations. In phase II of the cycle, the inventory is converted into receivable as credit sales are made to customer firms which do not sell on credit obviously not have phase III of the operating cycle. This phase completes the operating cycle thus the firm has moved form cash to inventory to receivables and the aches The last phase, Phase III, represent the stage when receivables are collected this phages completes the operating cycle thus the firms has moved from cash to inventory to receivable and to cash again.

This ratio expresses the relationship between the total fixed assets that are financed by the owner¶s fund of company.

If the ratio is low it means that the owners are using more debts for financing fixed assets. This is bad sign. This could be lead to deduction of working capital. Where working capital is efficiently used at higher percentage of owned funds can be converted into fixed assets. This can be calculated as under
Fixed assets turnover ratio s= Cost of goods sold Fixed assets

turned over during a year. Generally the higher the value of debtors tu rnover the more efficient the management of debtors /sales or more liquid are the debtors.

importance of rate analysis lies in the fact that it presents facts on a comparative basis and enables the dewing
inference regarding the
performance of a firm ratio analysis is relevant in assessing the performance of a firm in respect of the following aspects. i) Liquidity position ii) Long term solving iii) Operation efficiency iv) Overall profitability v) Inter-firm comparison and vi) Trend analysis.

If the with the industry average or with these of the competitors, the firm can set to identify the probable the probable reasons and in that light take remedial measures .
vi) Trend Analysis:Finally
ratio analysis enables a firm to take the time dimension into
account in other words whether the financial position of firm is imparting or deteriorating over the years this is made possible by the use of trend analysis the significance of trend analysis of ratios lies in the fact that the analysis can know the direction of management is favorable or un favorable for example the ratio may be low as compared to the norm but the trend may be upward on the other hand though the present level may be satisfactory but the trend may be a declining one.
Limitations of ratio Analysis :
Ratio analysis is a widely used tool of facial analysis yet it suffers from various limitations the operational implication of this is that while using rations the conclusions should not be taken on their face value some of the limitations which characterize ratio analysis are i) Difficulty in comparison ii) Impact of inflation and iii) Considerers diversity.
