OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY


Behind every study there is an objective, whatever people do they have some objective keeping in their mind and they work on it until their objective gets fulfilled. . CASH MANAGEMENT refers to the management of cash and the whole accounts department works very hard on it. Their main objective is to maintain cash outflow in proportion to the cash inflow of the company and to avoid over drafting. Cash section maintain cash outflow as per the payment requirement and in accordance with the allocation of funds from corporate finance.

Evolution Of Cash Management


All Business transaction involves give & take. Earlier this give & take was settled through commodities. One commodity was exchanged with another. This system of Barter had three difficulties; Presence of two persons who could satisfy each others need. Determination of the rate of exchange Problems of exchanges of large with smaller commodities. Early Cash:- It was to overcome the disadvantages of Barter that a need for a medium of exchange was felt & commodity as medium as entered the business arena. The commodity money didnt serve the purpose well because was devoid of basic features of good money, i.e., durability, divisibility & portability. Metals became the medium of exchange. First it was silver then gold. These metals were weighted every time a transaction was settled. Later on, to overcome the difficulties of weightment every time, the metals were cut down in to pieces of definite weightage & coinage into circulations. Present Day Cash:- With the increase of business & trade it became increasingly difficult to use commodity money as a medium of exchange due to the problem explained above. Thus started the era of paper money the initial use of paper money was in the form of receipts given by London goldsmiths for deposits of coin. In the first phase of paper money, these receipts were accepted as medium of exchange only if these were convertible into same value .

The Origin of cash can be easily understand by with the below three stages

Future Cash:
48

Computer has entered every segment of commercial world. The advent of internet has further intensified its penetration. Cash too, has remained aloof from its impact. In fact, mass experiments are going on which could transform the way we could think about money. A new breed of cash, which is basically a software is being developed for circulation in future it sis a kind of a electronic money known as E cash Under the system one may have E-cash in the form of a credit card size piece of plastic with an embedded microchip that one can load with E-money purchased with traditional currency or one can have E- cash in his personal computer or electronic wallet downloaded over phone lines from the issuer of e money. E cash can be issued both by banks and non banks. As on date non-banking corporations are more aggressive in this process of cash replacement. Commercial banks are entrusted with the creation of money by central banks of concerned countries by keeping a fraction of deposit as reserve. E-cash represents the biggest revolution in the currency since bold replaced co-wrie shells some experts look at its as a revolution similar to industrial revolution. Some of the benefits of e cash are given below: 1) E-cash is more convenient and feasible than traditional money. 2) Banks that issue e-cash could find it much cheaper than handling checks and papers that accompany traditional money. 3) Unlike credit card which provides no privacy to its users e-cash offers virtually complete anonymity.

Objectives Of Cash Management:


Inspite of the fact that cash does not earn any substantial return for the business, it is held by the concern with the following motives. 1). TRANSACTION MOTIVE - A company enters into a variety of business transactions resulting both inflow and outflow of cash, at times the cash outflow exceeds the cash inflow. In order to meet the business obligations in such situation, it is necessary to maintain adequate cash balance. Thus, a firm with the motive of making routine business payments maintains cash balance. 2). PRECAUTIONARY MOTIVE - A firm holds cash balance to meet sudden cash needs arising out of unexpected contingencies such as floods, strikes, obsolesces sharp increase in prices of raw materials, presentation of bills for payment earlier than expected date more amount of cash will be kept by the firm if 1there will be more possibility of such contingencies 3). SPECULATIVE MOTIVE -BHEL also keeps cash balance to take advantage of unexpected business opportunities. Such motive is there of speculative nature. 4). COMPENSATION MOTIVE - Banks provide certain services to their customers free of charge. So they usually require the customers to keep minimum cash balance with them which unable them to earn interest and compensate for the free services render

INTRODUCTION OF CASH Cash is that form of money which the person can use any time. It may be in the form of any currency. It is also called liquid money .it is the most desirable form of money because this money can use without any obstacle or regulation. NATURE OF CASH: IT IS LIQUID MONEY

The most important nature of cash is its liquid form. Cash is that form of money which is available to use any time. So the liquidity is the main feature of cash. LIFE BLOOD OF BUSINESS

Cash is the most important sector of business without cash business cannot run that is why it is indispensable part of business. ONE OF THE MODE OF PAYMENT

Cash is one of the most acceptable form of receipts because if the payment is made in the form of cash then it will give more security to the receiver. That is why it is more desirable. IT IS THE PART OF CURRENT ASSETS

Cash is the part of current asset and is shown on the assets side of the balance sheet. Cash at bank and cash in hand are two major parts of cash. Now I am going to discuss all the things, tools and procedure, which the BHEL is using for, cash management (A centralized system)

REASONS OF CASH MANAGEMENT


53

Cash management involves the following four basic problems 1). CONTROLLING LEVEL OF CASH - One of the basic objectives of cash management is to minimize the level of cash balance with the firm. This objective is sought to be achieved by means of the following:

PREPARING CASH BUDGET - Cash budget is the most important device for planning and controlling the use of cash. It involves the future receipts and payments of the firm. On the basis of this information the finance manager can determine the future cash needs of the firm . PROVIDING FOR UNPREDICTABLE DISCRIPANCIES - Cash budget shows discrepancies between cash receipts and payments on the basis of normal business activities. AVAILABILITY OF ALTERNATIVE SOURCE OF FUNDS - A firm may not need to keep large cash balance. If it has arrangements with banks for borrowing money in times of emergencies.

2). CONTROLLING OF CASH INFLOW - In order to prevent fraudulent diversion of cash receipt and speeding up collections of cash, an adequate control on cash inflow is necessary. A properly installed internal check system can, to a great extent, to minimize the possibility of fraudulent diversion of cash. Speedier collection of cash can be made possible by adoption of the following two techniques:

50

CONCENTRATION BANKING SYSTEM : It is a system of decentralizing collection of account receivables. According to this system branch offices are authorized to collect the payment from the customers, and deposit in the

54

local bank accounts this system facilities fast movement of funds. This system is good in case of the firms having there spread over a large area. LOCK BOX SYSTEM: This system is more popular in the U.S.A. and is further step in speeding up collection of cash. This system has been devised to element delay arising in cash of the concentration banking system on account of a time gap between actual receipt of checks by the regional collection centers and its deposits in the local bank account. Under this system BHEL higher a post office box and instructs its customers for their remits to the box. It also reduces the chances of fraud in the cash collection process and controls the cash inflows better. In order to avoid the unnecessary pockets of idle funds, the company should maintain minimum number of bank accounts 3). CONTROLLING OUTFLOWS OF CASH - an efficient control over cash outflows is equally important for conserving cash and reducing financial requirements. Control over cash outflow signifies slow disbursement. In order to control the outflows of cash efficiently, a firm should keep in view the following consideration. CENTRALIZED SYSTEM FOR CASH PAYMENTS - should be followed as compared to decentralized system in cash of collections. All payments should be made from a single control account, i.e., from the central office of the company. However, the local office of the company may pay local expenses.
51

PAYMENT SHOULD BE MADE ON THE DUE DATES , neither before nor after. The company should neither loss cash discount nor its prestige on account of delayed payments. The company should, therefore, made payments within the terms offered by the suppliers.
55

3). PLAYING FLOAT:- Technique should be used by the company for maximizing the availability of funds. The term 'float' means the account tide up in checks, which have been issued by BHEL but not have yet been presented, for payment by the creditors. As a result of time lag between issue of a cheque and its actual presentation, The actual bank balance of a firm may be more than the balance shown in the books. The difference is called 'payment of float'. The longer the 'float period the greater would be the benefit of the firm

52

Factors Influencing Cash Management in Business:


The Cash Flow in a business is influenced by a number of factors. These can be classified into two categories56

1) Internal factors 2) External factors Internal factors are those factors which are internal to the business, and by & large arise as a result of management decisions. External factors, on the other hands are such environmental factors which are not under the direct control of management, such factors affect the economy as a whole & their ramifications are felt by an individual business as well. These exercise influence on the availability of cash in a business. Now we will try to go in deep to understand in a proper manner that how they influence cash management as a whole.
1) Internal Factors- Internal Factors are products of management policies

followed either consciously & positively, or unconsciously by default, or combination of both. Following are some of the avenues from where these factors emanate & affect the cash in a business.

Operating policies: These refer to all types of decisions which make the business operative. Operating policies are basically aims for the business BECAUSE EVERY BUSINESS DESIRES TO OPERATE AT ITS OPTIMUM LEVEL. For this it has to gear up its entire department like production, marketing sales etc.
53

Fixed Assets: Fixed assets are the long lived properties of the business which it owns & uses as an aid to generate the profits. So far as cash is concerned investment in fixed assets embodied two important features. 1) It requires cash outlay of high order. 2) The cash is sunk for a longer period whenever these are purchased.
57

Management of Receivables:

In the modern competitive business

environment there is no escape from selling goods on credit The credit policy followed by the business has a direct bearing on the cash in the business. The cash remains blocked to the extent and period of credit allowed. Also credit term like cash discount will affect the flow of cash from debtors.

Inventory: Inventory refers to the stock held by the business. Funds are normally tied up in three kinds of inventory
1) Raw Material

2) Work in process 3) Finished goods

Payment Policies: It refers to the policies concerning the payment to be released to creditors & suppliers. Extracting maximum credit from suppliers, utilizing cash discount offered by them are some of the ingredients of prudent purchase management policies resulting in decelerating of cash outflow.

Miscellaneous: Other factors which affect the cash flow may arise due to commercial & statutory requirements. Some of the examples are periodic deposit of advance tax installment.

54 2) External Factors: External factors are covered by all determinants

relevant to the overall economy &/or a particular industry

Monetary & fiscal factors: These factors relate to the money supply in the economy. During period of inflation, the economy is flushed with money, Price rise has a cascading effect on the output and the business has cash in abundance. On the other hand, during recessionary period
58

demand for goods contracts & economy faces cash drought. The fiscal factors too, have a direct bearing on the cash availability in a business Tax is an important fiscal factors which determines the size of disposable cash in the hands of business

Special factors relevant to an industry : In addition to monetary & fiscal factors, there may be some special factors unique to a particular industry as well. These also influence the cash flow of a business.

TOOLS OF CASH CONTROL:


1). CASH BUDGET : - It is the most significant tool of controlling the use of cash. It provides a comparison between actual and budgeted cash receipts and disbursements locating the points of deviations, if any. The financial manager, after ascertaining the reasons for deviations between the actual and budgeted figures, can take the necessary action to remove. 2). INFLOWS AND OUTFLOWS OF CASH :- In order to check the change in cash position of the firm from one period to another a cash flow statement is cash. 3). RATIO ANALYSIS - Ratio analysis is also an important tool of cash control. Different ratio, liquidity ratio, receivables turnover ratio, and inventory turnover ratio and cash position ratios.

57 61

ANALYSIS OF CASH MANAGEMENTS WITH THE HELP OF CASH BUDGET:

INVESTMENTS OF SURPLUS FUNDS

As we knew that cash is a non earning asset. Cash not required for the temporary period can be invested in near cash asset i.e., marketable securities, which are readily convertible into cash, short term securities are considered near cash because they are income bearing and near cash items, excess cash should be invested in marketable securities, which can be promptly converted into cash for two reasons -: 1) The working capital requirements fluctuate due to reasonability and different business aid. Excess cash in slack season is idle temporarily and it should be used for investment in short term securities. 2) Excess cash may be held as a buffer to meet unpredictable financial need the decision to invest in short term securities must following points :
(a)

take into account

SAFETY : there are two types of risk associated with dealing in securities i.e. price risk and default risk. Price risk refers to adverse price movements. Default risk is the risk that an issuing organization may not be able to its obligations safe securities earn low return. A company is normally interested in receiving as high return as possible, but a proper balance should be maintained between profitability and risk.

58

62

(b)

MATURITY : The long maturity of securities is associated with danger of price fluctuations. So BHEL should prefer to invest in securities; whose remaining life is longer then six to nine months.

Company in the following short term investments may invest the temporary cash surplus:DEPOSIT ACCOUNTS : - This is a very flexible investment with low risk but interest rates are relatively low. TERM DEPOSITS :- Interest rates are higher and depend on length of deposit, but amount invested cannot be drawn except on maturing. GOVERNMENT AND LOCAL AUTHORITIES SECURITIES:They provide a guaranteed fixed income, if held until maturity.

59 63

ANALYSIS THROUGH RATIO ANALYSIS; CURRENT RATIO:- It is the best ratio to find relationship between the current assets and current liabilities. We can easily calculate the current ratio with the help of the following formula:

Current ratio = current assets/current liabilities


INTERPRETATION:As we all know that the current ratio of any company may be 2:1, but according to the USA accounting standard any company should maintain a ratio of 1.33:1. Moreover we can see from the above calculations that the current ratio of BHEL in 2003-04 was 1.22:1 which is quite unfavorable and bad from the companies point of view, the current assets and current liabilities were in inappropriate proportion. It means that the company was not quite able to meet out its liabilities. The current ratio of the company is continuously rising i.e. in 2004-05 it was 1.14:1, in 2006-07 it was 1.12:1. In 2007-08 the current ratio has gone down to 0.96:1 which was the lowest in the last five years due to the increase in current liabilities and decrease in the current assets as compared to previous year. The current assets decreased due to decrease in inventory which was65365 in 2007-08 as compared to67627 in 2006-07 the current ratio further Detroit in 2007-08 to 0.96:1 which is not favorable from companies point of view. Decrease in current assets is again due to stock, or inventory and sundry debtors. It indicates that the ideal stock is less, which is not favorable for the company.

60 64

LIQUIDITY RATIO :- This ratio establishes a relationship between quick assets and current liabilities. The major objective to compute this ratio is to measure the ability of the firm to meet its short-term obligations as and when due without relying upon the realization stock. We can easily calculate this ratio with the help of the following formula:

Liquidity ratio= liquid assets/current liabilities

INTERPRETATION

Liquid ratio indicates that what amounts of liquid assets are available for each rupee of current liability. We know that the liquid ratio of any company may be 1:1, is considered to be satisfactory. Now comparing the company's position according to the liquid ratio. In 2003-04 the liquid ratio of the company was 0.75:1 which was less than the standard ratio that indicates liquid position of the company was not good. The liquid ratio started decreasing in 2004-05 was 0.54:1 which was 0.63:1 in 2005-06 .It followed the same trend 0.54:1 which were the worst liquidity position years for the company. But again it followed a upward trend in 2006-07 & 2007-08, the ratios were 0.67:1 & 0.64:1 respectively. It means that the liquidity position of the company is constantly decreasing it is due to large amount of current liabilities as compared to liquid assets. Also the number of debtors of the company are increasing. This is not better from management's point of view. As more of amount is blocked in the debts and chances of bad debt will increase.
61

65

ANALYSIS OF CASH MANAGEMENT STATEMENT WITH THE HELP OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT : Cash flow statement shows inflows & outflows of cash or sources and application of cash during a periodic period. This statement explains the various transactions, which have affected the cash balance and cumulative impact of these transactions in cash balances between two balance sheet dates. This statement is extremely helpful in planning for immediate future to avoid serious cash shortages. A proper planning of cash transactions helps management to have cash available when needed.

INTERPRETATION OF CASH FLOW STATEMENT

It helps us to plan of optimum utilization of funds and avoid the situations leading to idle cash \ surplus. It ensures timely payment of dividend and other major cash transactions. It exhibit in right peers perceive the company's ability to meet demand of trade creditors and bank loan. It discloses the reasons that lead to movement of cash balance.

62

66

OUTFLOW/ INFLOW OF CASH

This is not necessary if pay slips containing details of the gross amount of salary and deduction are securely attached to the pay packets. Payment through pay packet or in loose cash is made by the pay disbursement officials selected for the purpose, who should be permanent employees of the company and covered under fidelity insurance.

63

67

TIME FOR PAYMENT Accounts officer notices the time for payment at each counter or shop floor to the concerned officers in charge well in time. The disburser is available at the counter floor only during these specific hours and the officers in charge are expected to see that all the employees working with are available to receive the payment during these specific hours. The employees who do not receive the salary during these hours will be paid on days specifically notified for payment of unpaid wages. Salary remaining unpaid for 10 days or more is remitted back to the bank and the amount is credited to unpaid wages account. IDENTIFICATION The correct identification of individual employees is the responsibility of the identifying officials. He should identify the individual employees coming forward to receive the payment on the pay bills by initiating against the individuals name in the pay bill. He should also sign on the pay bill, certify that he has identified & witnessed the payment to the employees mentioned in the pay bill. PAYMENT PROCEDURE At the time of payment, employees stand in queue to receive their payment. Each employee presents himself before the pay disburser & sign against his name in the pay bill. In case of illiterate person, the identifying official insures that the left hand thumb impression is given by the individual concerned in his presence. No claim for support will be entertained if the employee concerned has left the counter after singing the pay bill.

64 68

PAYMENT THROUGH BANK On the receipt of the pay bill, bank wing separate out the cases requiring payment through banks & send cheques to the concerned bank one day in advance of the due date of disbursement. If for nay reason cheques/letters of the authority are made out more than one day in advance, they will bear an endorsement, payable on or after & the due date of payment shell be specified therein. RESPONCEBLITY FOR CASH The pay disburser shell be responsible for cash received by them from the time of obtaining payment from chief cashier till pay has been disbursed & unpaid amount handed over to the chief cashier. PAYMENT TO AN EMPLOYEE ON BEHALF OF ANOTHER Payment of salary/wages & allowance etc. should normally be made to the individual concerned only & under no circumstances to outsider on behalf of the company employees. When payment is made to accompany employee on behalf of another, the following procedure should be followed.

Signature of the employee to whom the payment is due shall be attested The employee to whom the payment is made o9n the basis of authority by the officer under whom the employee is working. letter should be properly identified before payment.

65

69

TECHNIQUE OF CASH FORECASTING AND CASH BUDGETING: Cash forecasting means of cash near future. It is very important task because it avoids the problem of over cash and under cash. Cash forecasting is based on two major factors: 3) 4) Forecasting of payment Forecasting of receipts

FORECASTING OF PAYMENT: Forecasting of payment means is to forecast the payment of near future that is requirement of cash for payment purpose. There are a lot of many payments, which the company pays. Some of them are as follows: Day today basic funds requirements Medical reimbursement Traveling allowances Pending of bills Argent bills Statuary bills - sales tax, excise duty, reasonable provident fund (RPF), income tax.

SUGGESTION
No doubt BHEL and its cash department are very good. They are performing their functions in a very impressive way but if the company thinks about these following points then the working will be better. Staff of the cash department should be sufficient because the load always very much there on them. So it will be good if organization increases its working force for their cash department. Cash section should not be very far away from other departments like finance department which controls the cash section. So that employees would not have to face difficulties, because every time they have to go there again and again.

Cash section should not be very small in size. Specially book keeping section. It should not be very congested. So organization must provide enough space.

86

94

CONCLUSION
It is very difficult to elaborate all the work of cash section. But I have tried my level best to cover all the work done by it. This project was undertaken in order to know the effectiveness of cash section of finance department of the company. I would like to conclude my project with these points: Cash department is the backbone of the finance department and organization itself. All money transactions are done through this department. Cash department should be totally connected with corporate office. It works on the instruction of corporate office. That is why the system is called centralized cash management system. All tools should be used by cash department & in a efficient and reliable way. Salary disbursement, system should be marvelous and other tools like bank book, cash book, voucher, cash draft etc. should be helpful to maintain account up to date and in a systematic form. Staff of cash section should be a mixture of youth & experience, knowledgeable and hard working. They should perform their work efficiently with a team spirit. Environment of cash department should be very cooperative. So at last I can say it was a good experience. I learnt a lot through out my project and I am sure that this knowledge will help me forever.
