Company Overview
Pan Power International (Pvt) Ltd went into operation in 2007. There are around 200 employees
in the company working according to the international quality standards of ISO 9001:2015,
ISO14001, and OHSAS18001. Our organization is one of the leading transformer manufacturers
in Pakistan engaged in the fabrication of distribution and power transformers. The company is
pre-qualified and registered with WAPDA. It provides transformers to WAPDA and various
DISCOs throughout Pakistan.
Pan power is a modern heavy engineering complex, one of the largest in the private sector. We
are also manufacturers of pole-mounted, pad-mounted, and power transformers from 10 KVA to
7000 KVA to satisfy the requirements of WAPDA/PEPCO Distributions Companies (DISCOs),
KESC, AJK, and the private sector. In 15 years, we have achieved a production capacity of
10000 Distribution Transformers of different ratings per annum with an annual turnover of more
than 500 million rupees.
Pan power International (Pvt) Ltd is a state-of-the-art facility located at Multan road. It is a 4-
acre premise and has 120,000 square feet of covered area. The company has its own professional
developing labs and aging testing rooms. We also have a futuristic warehouse management
system that helps the store managers to track and document all inventory-related activities. There
are a total of 4 production flow lines at our site. We also use surface-mount technology (SMT)
and wave soldering equipment to achieve the best results.
The Engineering team has experts in design, production, and testing under the leadership of our
chief executive officer, who is a well-experienced and qualified engineer. The employees of our
company are highly competent and devoted with more than a decade of experience and a
satisfied customer base. The top-level managers and the base-level workers work in an
environment where they may operate independently and harness their maximum potential. Both
staff and workers undergo special training to increase productivity and get polished skills.
PPIL is an ISO 9001-2000 certified company. Consequently, our company strictly checks all
'quality control procedures to get optimal results. The company is more than capable of making
pole mounted, pad mounted, sealed type, and conservator type transformers. We also have all the
latest testing facilities for in-house testing. PPIL is known for building high-quality transformers,
meeting local and international standards at competitive prices. Since customer satisfaction and
comfort is our foremost concern, thus we offer a one-year warranty and delivery service to all
customers.

Competitors
Few of the major and renowned competitors of Pan power, by name, are; ‘PEL’,
‘Transfopower’, ‘Grid’, ‘Elmetech’. To counter the threat of this high competition and gain a
competitive edge over other brands, all suitable steps/policies are taken into consideration and
added periodically to company terms. 

Business Processes
The business process of Pan Power is a set of activities that accomplish the organizational goal
of the company. Pan power’s business processes are about having purposeful goals, being as
specific as possible and producing consistent outcomes.

To ensure that production goes smoothly, pan power uses business process management (BPM)
which is a systematic approach to improving those processes, which helps the organizations
achieve specific business goals such as competitive advantage. If the organization is unable to
perform a certain business process internally due to cost or resource constraints, the company
uses outsourcing to complete the business process. 

1. Tanking

The mild steel sheet is cut into prices which then are notched via the notching machine
and rolled through the rollers to form a tank body . Then we weld the fabricated tank
body to form a tank.

2. Slitting

The slitting process slits the core though the slitting machine via high speed blades and
forms bundles in the order of required dimensions. Precision is very important in this
process because the variation in size slitting results in high iron losses.

3. Cutting
 The slitted bundles are then cut into the seven steps of the core formation via the CNC
cutting machine and power presses. The blades are sharpened every cutting of 5" to 6"
material so that the material cut is accurate.

4. Winding

The copper is winded through the machines in the form of coils. The diameter, turns,
length and insulation plays an important role during the winding process as copper losses
depend on these parameters.

5. Assembly

In the assembly phase, the core stacked and the copper coils winded are then assembled
to form a final shape before the tanking of the transformer.

Additional Information
 In October, the company produced 750 25kva transformers. Therefore, per unit direct
material, direct labour, and FOH cost is multiplied by 750.
 It was told to us by the operations manager that 200-300 transformers remain
uncompleted at the end of every month. Therefore, we assumed work in progress as 200
and their completion level to be 50%

LIFO
 The company uses LIFO method for inventory costing

Order Point

 Lead time and safety stock information was collected from the manager
 Daily usage was calculated through: material used for 1 unit *number of units produced
in 1 day
 Order Point = (Daily Usage * Lead Time) + Safety Stock
Order Point 6680

EOQ
 C is the cost for placing an order. It includes the inspection cost, transportation cost,
loading & unloading using machinery, and labour cost. It is estimated to be at 10,000rs
 N is the annual unit produced= usage*working days= 1,000*300 = 300,000
 K: Annual inventory cost for storage of copper is estimated to be 20,000* 12. Storage
capacity is 2000kg. Therefore, per unit cost is 20000*12/2000.
 Formula: EOQ = √2CN/ K
Applied and Actual Factory Overhead

 Applied Factory overheads are calculated through direct labour hour method.
 First Estimated budget is calculated using previous months factory overhead

 Factory overhead per unit is multiplied by units produced last month then divided by
number of hours labour worked last month which gives us the Labour hour basis
 Applied factory overhead is calculated by multiplying basis rate by number of hours
employees worked which is 192

Ratios
Liquidity Ratios
 Current Ratio: This ratio gives an idea about company’s ability to meet its current
liabilities by means of its current assets. Current Liabilities of Pan power are
1,007,826,465 and Current Assets are 145,485,881.
Formula: Current Ratio = Current Assets/ Current Liabilities
Calculation: Current Ratio = 145,485,881/ 1,007,826,465 = 0.144
Interpretation: The current ratio had to be 1 or above to depict a positive image of the
company as they would be considered solvent but it is less than 1 i.e. 0.144, this shows
that the company is not solvent in short term.
  Acid –Test Ratio: This ratio measures a company’s ability to meet its short-term
obligations with its most liquid assets to gauge the true liquidity of the firm and therefore,
excludes inventory because it is the least liquid asset.

Formula: Acid –Test Ratio = Current Assets – Inventory/ Current Liabilities

Calculation: Acid –Test Ratio = 145,485,881 – 197,166/ 1,007,826,465 = 0.144
Interpretation: Since the ratio came out to be less than 1 i.e. 0.144 again, this indicates
that the company’s inventory does not have enough weightage in total current assets, it
remains to be not solvent and without enough quick assets.
Profitability Ratios
 Return on Assets (ROA): This ratio measures how efficiently a company can manage its
assets to generate profits during a period.

Formula: ROA = Net Profit/ Total Assets * 100%

Calculation: ROA = 85,486,432/ 328,676,543 * 100 = 26%
Interpretation: The result of the ratio is 26% which means that Pan Power is not able to
fully utilize assets efficiently to generate sales and in turn have profits.
 Net Profit Margin: The net profit margin states how much profit is earned for every
Rs.1 in sales or every single unit sold, after deducting all the expenses.

Formula: Net Profit/ Sales *100%

Calculation: Net Profit Margin = 85,486,432/ 810,286,324 * 100 = 10.5%
Interpretation: A net profit margin of 10.5% states that Pan Power earns Rs.0.304 in
profit for every rupee it collects in its sales.
