INTRODUCTION
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Financial management deals with the overall objective of procurement, financing and asset
management. Financial managers need to forecast and note their financial consequences for
the business events they expect.
There are several functions in modern financial management. The functional fields of
modern financial management are difficult to identify. They are essentially three kinds.
● Investment decision
● Financial decision
● Dividend decision
INVESTMENT DECISION
FINANCIAL DECISIONS
● The financial manager shall carry out the second important decision or function.
● It decides how funds should be acquired and how investment needs of the company
should be met.
10
DIVIDEND DECISION
● The optimum dividend policies are to maximize the market value of the company's
shares.
INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
The backbone of all activities is inventory and supply chain management. Inventory
management has undergone revolutionary changes with the development of technology and
availability of process-driven software applications. All functions are interconnected and
interlinked and often overlap in any company or organisation. Some important aspects, such
as management of supply chain, logistics and inventory, are the backbone of the company
function. Therefore, both marketing managers and financial controllers consider these roles
very important.
Inventory management is a very important role that affects supply chain health and balance
sheet financial health. In order to meet your needs and avoid the inventories that can
influence financial figures, each company is always working towards preserving the best
stock. The inventory is dynamic always. In inventory management it is important to
continuously evaluate external and internal factors as well as monitor planning and
assessment. Most organisations have a separate department or job function known as
inventory planners, which constantly monitor, monitor and review manufacturers, acquisition
and finance inventories and interfaces.
11
INVENTORY MANAGEMENT TECHNIQUES
The management of inventories can be an awful task, and it could cost companies billions of
dollars if they are not done properly. With the increase of sales volume and diversification of
the product assortment, inventory management becomes increasingly complicated.
1. REVIEW STOCK
The inventory review is an ongoing inventory analysis against future expectations. You can
do this through a manual inventory review or via inventory software. You can set up regular
inspections and supply reorder to set your minimum inventory level. Make sure that certain
situations, such as providers that take longer than average to fill up stocks, are taken into
account. This helps you to order just in time for the inventory to be stored for at least a few
days before moving into the next stage of the supply chain.
• Visual control
• Click-sheet
• Tickler control.
2. ABC ANALYSIS
This is a popular method for analysing your stock. In this method, the inventory is divided
into three categories: A, B and C. These categories are based on the value and importance of
inventories. Furthermore, a percentage of each category's total number of items and values.
12
Management of individual categories: Group C is good to handle, while group A requires
special care. Group C can be quite easy. In combination with the just-in-time technology, you
can use ABC analyses to help you achieve a correct reorder.
3. VED ANALYSIS:
The analyses divide the items into three categories: life, essential and desirable. The category
Vital includes those items that would be stopped by production. The main group comprises
items which are very expensive on stock. A group of goods that do not lead to production
loss or inventory immediately involves nominal expenses and causes minor disturbances over
a short period of time.
This item calculates the cost of purchase and transport, known as 'normal order volumes,'
'economic lot size' or 'economic order volume.' Orders essentially include costs to acquire
storage items, property insurance, physical deterioration loss of value and obsolescence costs.
Both of these costs have a negative impact on the company's profits and management tries to
compensate for these two costs. Economic quantity is referred to as the balance or
reconciliation point. And EOQ applies in lots covering several periods to articles which are
periodically replanted in inventory.
Whereas,
A =Annual Consumption
O = Ordering Cost
C = Carrying Cost

REVIEW OF LITERATURE
ARTICLES:
Article 1:
INTRODUCTION:
The main objective of the study is to understand the current milk industry scenario in India and
several issues faced by industry stakeholders. This is a review of research papers on the dairy
sector. The main problems were the lack of fodder and concentrates, a lack of veterinary and
diagnostic services, information lacking and technological awareness. Dairy farmers in most
parts of India faced these common problems.
The study is conducted to understand the magnitude of research in the field and the output, if
any, that can pave the way for further field research.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The articles are collected from various databases such as J-gate Plus, Ebsco host.com and
Google.
CONCLUSION:
24 research papers are studied to understand different problems in the dairy industry in India.
Each of these documents has to do with a particular geographical region in India. The papers are
for six regions of India viz. the Southern, the West, the Northern, the Northeast, the North-
Central and the East. 14 of 24 studies were based on primary dairy farmer data The main
problems in those studies related to the lack of coordination between the various government
agencies and high cost of fodder and diagnostic services.
19
Article 2:
INTRODUCTION:
The willful endeavors of individuals and government, reflected through fruitful usage of projects
like “Operation Flood”, changed India from its shortfall state in milk generation to the world’s
biggest milk creating nation which paved the necessity of proper inventory management for
diary industry.
Horticulture and unified segments like dairy are not popularized in India. They are as yet
considered as wellspring of business for a huge number of little farmers.
Because of the destructive nature of milk products, managing the dairy supply chain effectively
is a challenge. In addition, these products require quick-response supply chain support
throughout the supply chain network through effective coordination.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The review depended on optional information. The writer discovered moderate development of
domesticated animals’ division in north east district. In any case they recognized a few
components affecting the family units’ choice to back animals like accessibility of work,
occupation, station, cultivate measure, accessibility of water system, and access to data sources.
CONCLUSION:
The Common discoveries of the above expanded literature review depicted that the group
measure on a normal is observed to be beneath 35-40 dairy animals. Organized and well
managed dairy cultivating is still as a wellspring of employment and not marketed. Fodder and
concentrates together contributes the most astounding extent of the aggregate expenses.
20
Article 3:
INTRODUCTION:
In enriching rural India's socio-economic status, the milk industry plays a vital role. In general,
the literature discusses either a structure or subcomponents of the dairy supply chain. In the
current world market, the success factors like economic trends, competitive position,
technological progress and operations and SCM activities cannot be ignored by industries.
Competitiveness in the supply chain has been a crucial issue for organisations, and 'mapping an
organization's competitiveness helps to form the basis for the development of a business strategy.
⮚ A literature discusses to study the structure of the subcomponent components of the milk
supply chain.
⮚ The literature discusses the sub-components of the milk supply chain.
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The target group are recently published articles in different databases. The articles have been
searched by using the title abstract field on a variety of scientific databases such as GS, Open-
access Journal, Science Web, Scopus, etc. The reviewed articles were classified by year of
publication, name/type of journal, subject matter and field of study.
CONCLUSIONS:
In summary, the strategies discussed here can help to increase competitiveness and leanliness in
the dairy industry.
21
Article 4:
INTRODUCTION:
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
The ABC and XYZ analysis methods of inventory control have been used in different application
areas to cut the cost of inventory, improve inventory management for goods also helpful for the
storage of finished goods. The management of inventory is the precise monitoring of the material
in the inventory of the company. Different types of inventory testing techniques exist.
Techniques are developed from ABC and XYZ.
CONCLUSION:
22
Article 5:
INTRODUCTION:
The word inventory refers to goods or resources that are used to manufacture and sell by a
company. It also includes the subject which is used to facilitate production as helpful materials.
Three basic types of raw, progressive inventory and finished goods exist. Raw materials are the
products bought by companies for use in the production of finished goods. All items currently in
the production process are part of the work-in-progress. In fact, they are partly manufactured
products. The finished products are those that have been shaped but have not been sold yet.
Inventory management is important in that it allows the following major issues to be dealt with.
OBJECTIVES:
METHODOLOGY:
The articles have been searched by using the title abstract field on a variety of scientific
databases such as GS, Open-access Journal, Science Web, Scopus, etc. The reviewed articles
were classified by year of publication, name/type of journal, subject matter and field of study.
CONCLUSION:
We must understand in any company that is large or small that it is very important to take good
care of our inventory. We can start from here, and there are several ways to fight failure. New
technologies can assist us in maintaining and monitoring our inventory.
23
RESEARCH GAP
Finance is the underlying pillar of all forms of economic activities in the modern-oriented
economy. Financial statements are prepared primary for decisions making. So, every
company will be interested in knowing its inventory performance. In the above articles the
first three articles focuses on dairy industry.
Therefore, the study focuses on crucial research gap and the study is concerned to fill gap
of inventory management using EOQ and inventory turnover ratio in THE KRISHNA
DISTRICT MILK PRODUCERS MUTUALLY AIDED CO-OPERATIVE UNION LTD.
24
STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
Inventory management is important for making the business efficient and effective, but
the inventory management was slightly neglected by the KRISHNA DISTRICT MILK

INDUSTRY PROFILE
Industry Scenario:
Since ancient Vedic years, milking has been living in India. The modern dairy industry
began selling bottled milk from a range of milk colonies in Mumbai in 1950. A
cooperative enterprise for milk powder, table butter and ghee production, supported by
UNICEF, was launched in 1945 in Anand's first large-scale factory. These are buffalo
milk products. The operational flood was the world's largest development programme,
designed and deliberately delivered by the NDDB and the Indian dairy company to carry
out the enormous task of modernising production, procurement, processing and marketing.
In July of 1970, the project was started. Its fundamental idea compromises the creation of
the Anand pattern as a cooperative structure.
OPERATION FLOOD-1:
Initially, operation flood-2 was to be concluded in 1975 with a total cost of about Rs.l16
crores. In the course of the flood 1 operation, the establishment of the free metric tonnes
of bottled oil from EU surpluses was fully financed.
ANAND PATTERN-1:
The Flood-1 programme was implemented on the Anand pattern and loudly proclaimed
with the trampling of the ice hindlands with a variety of breeding tracks. This cooperative
was initially set up in 18 Indian districts, and later on I was added a total of 27 milk shed
areas in 10 countries of the country, including Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh,
West Bengal, Bihar, Haryana, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh & Rajasthan. Such milk cooperatives
are based on a model of a milk cooperative known as Anand's pattern. In the village, dairy
farmers constructed and maintained their cattle in the rural cooperative infrastructure
concept of Anand patterns. In each participating village milk producers had to establish
their own village dairy cooperative. In relation to cooperation, INST 60753 showed a year
ago that in the area of cooperation there were 631.21 operational flooding societies
organised by Anand, with the formation of 2.368 new cooperative milk companies, on 1
April 1991.
28
OPERATION FLOOD-2:
The first flood of July 1978, at the cost of 483 crores, is expected to end in 1985. The
performance of operating flood-1 in some areas has been modestly evaluated. In
particular, the Anand pattern of milk co-operatives is the basis for operational floods. as
with all this achievement. At the beginning, their unions have to act. Cluster co-operative
nuclei federation. This huge food-2 project is the main tool. As the average nuclear cluster
federation, six district unions would be registered and unregistered. Indian milk co-
operatives, which may be nationally possible, do not need to base government wise
allocations for flood 2 operations until 11,979. The shares of the lion were held by the
State of Gujarat in 1666 alone. The total disbursement for its case was only 1732 lakhs,
composed of Haryana, Bihar, Rajasthan and Andhras Pradesh. In operation flood-2 this
trend will be continued.
OPERATION FLOOD-3:
The Indian milk industry grows quickly and could be a major powder competitor
worldwide. As a result of operational flood programmes in the National Air Development
Board, milk industry is the second biggest contributor to the agricultural economy in terms
of output phenomenal growth. Flood 2 now allowed only procurement to strengthen
production in its closing phase. The production of milk for 200 AD is forecast to grow by
5% by almost 90 tonnes. Today it is 5 to 8 per cent operating dairy facilities with a daily
capacity of 14.3 million litres, covering 170 milk halls. The drying capacity is around 696
tonnes per day. With milk powder imports except a rapid growth in dairy production
(26400 tones).
In October 1964 the cattle feeding factory of Kanjari was manufactured. The Indian Prime
Minister Late Shri LALBAHADUR SHASTRY visited cooperative producers' companies
in due time and said so over the night. He was impressed by the social economic change in
the Krishna region that gained milk cooperatives and wanted a national organization to
replicate animism in other regions of the country by cooperative dairy producers. In
September 1965 a National Dairy Development Board, headed by the Ministry of
29
Agriculture and Irrigation, was established under the company registration act of 1860 and
the Bombay Trust Act 1950. The Indian President shall appoint the Chairman or Secretary
to the Board of Directors; the Chief Organization shall be the National Dairy
Development Board.
Milk procurement function in this pattern is controlled by the milk farmers themselves,
processing and marketing.
PLANNING INVESTMENT:
The programme for dairy production was mooted on the basis of commendable support of
the United National University of Vijayawada and Vijydria in 1967 and 1969, the
International Children's Emergency Fund (IUF), the Food and Farm organisations, and
free from the hungary company campaign Organization of the UK. These two gigantic
units were later supplied with cooling and chilling centres. In the interest of dairy
producers, the government of Andhra Pradesh established the milk development company
and provided the urban consumers as A.P.D.D.C.. with a sufficient fresh milk supply at a
reasonable cost on 2 April 1974. Include seven dairy factories, 13 local dairy farms, 22
chilling centres and 18 refrigeration centres and 15 mini refreshment centres, and provides
jobs for almost 20 employees and an organism that easily employs 87 milk unit. In
addition the private units have helped develop Hindustan milk foods from the dairy
industry, which have launched a maltted milk product factory in Rajamundry. On the basis
of a recommendation measuring milk production and mass harvest, the government has
established a self-employed dairy development company, which will also improve labour
efficiency and sales.
30
Dairy Development: Its capacity was 100 litres per day on departure. Now, there have
been 11 lakhs per day.
OPERATION FLOOD:
In our state operation flood was divided in three types "Anand level".

Krishna is famous for its cattle quality. It ranks second in the state in the milk livestock
population. An integrated milk product with UNICEF help, a milk conservation plant 1.25
L P/d was started in April 1969 at VIJAYAWADA. Organized milk production at Krishne
started in 1965 in April 1969. The district's dairy industry began as part of animal
husbandry activity under the state government. It was integrated with the Milk Project
(1960), the Department of Milk Development (1971), the Dairy Development Corporation
of Andhra Pradesh (1974), as well as with A.P. (1981). Around one lakh of milk
producers from 800 towns organised through 20 routes collects milk from the Union. Each
district union has six milk chilling centres at Pamarru, Hanuman Junction, Veerankilock,
Gudlavalleru, Chillakollu and Tiruvuru with a total processing capacity for 1,22 lakh of its
own per day.
It has a dairy factory with facilities for the production of various dairy products.
Butter 22 MT/day
Ghee 18 MT/day
38
In the Vijayawada dairy factory, excess milk is handled from all coastal communities.
Approximately 1.73 lakh kg per day with a peak of 3.18 lake kg/day. The fat factory
mainly conserves 1000 MT per year in the form of white butter. The Milk Products
Factory has established an Aseptic Packing Station (APS) for packaging 50,000 litres
(UHT-MILK) of daily milk. Union also has 2 mixing plants for cattle feed with an overall
capacity of 50 Mt per day.
Processing 4th
Marketing 3rd
Day supplies range between 45000 and 105000 kg in Krishna District between 1969 and
1998. The concentrated district of buffalo has wide fluctuations in procurement. The
Cooperative Milk Union of the District provides farmers with the following input to
increase milk production.
• Bulls of reproduction
• Services of expansion.

pasteurizers. In total, four lakh litres of milk are stored.
OPERATIONS
❖ The division among required quantities of full milk and the amount of demand is
❖ THE BUTTER SEQUART: Three butter churns with 1500 litres of drum capacity are
present. After the cream is washed and chilled water removes solids, the cream loaded into
the drums is picked out for about three hours. While solids are returned to the processing
section as liquid butter milk, the formed butter is collected and returned to it.
❖ The ghee is then pumped to ghee-setting tanks for an eight-hour period after a good flavour,
colour and so on, so that it can sediment the bottom tank. Two 8,000-liter tanks and two
3,000-liter storage tanks. The ghee is then thoroughly filtered and clarified. The final filtered
ghee is packed into 51t, 21t, lit and 54 according to a satisfactory report by laboratory
authorities. Ghee packing's total daily volume is 18.0 M.T.

SIZE OF INVENTORY:
Stock size depends on several factors, including sales volumes, plant volume, raw
materials availability, variations in raw and finished products, cycle length of
production, etc. Overall, the level of inventory increases steadily as sales and
production increase. The main goal of inventory management, as already stated, is to
optimise the inventory size so that production and sales perform smoothly. In addition
to adversaries in profitability and liquidity, the size of inventories is increased. The
network capital size is measured by the following ratio.

INTERPRETATION:
In the period 2015-2020, the table shows the inventory dimensions of the selected
company. The table shows that in this study the inventory was the main element of the
total current assets, because an average of about 52 percent of the current assets. The
table shows that stock sizes have decreased gradually, rising from 48.21% to 44.27% in
2015-2016, and increasing in 2017-08 from 44.27% to 51.92% in the study period,
from 51.92% to 43.68 percent in 2017-2019, and from 2022% to 42.68% in 2029, and
from 32.2% in 2014 to 43.7% in 2016.
• REASON:
This is because the prices and the monopoly provider are fluctuating.
• SUGGESTION:

INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO:
Inventories for the company are considered lists of all kinds of inventories. This
relationship reflects the transmission frequency of the average inventory through
operations. The stock is converted to short-term sales when the ratio is high. This gives
the company good profits. When stocks move quickly, the company's short-term
solvency is also excellent. As a precious measure of sales efficiency and inventory
quality, the inventory return ratio can be used. The sales ratio of the following

INTERPRETATION:-
The above table shows an annual decline in the inventory turnover ratio. It rose 9.56 times from
2015-16 to 2019-20 to 12.72 times. It is a test for efficient management of inventories. The
better the company's performance, if the ratio is higher. If the turnover ratio of inventories are
higher, the business cycle is faster, and the company will ultimately make better profits.
75
DAYS OF INVENTORY HOLDING:
Average inventory holdings occur on a percentage term in reciprocal inventory turnover ratio.
When we are divided by the number of days per year by the inventory turnover (say 365), we are
allowed holding days for the inventory. The holding days are measured by the following ratio:
365

INTERPRETATION:
The inventory holding trend in the company is out of the table. Inventory holdings days
are understood to have slowly decreased between 38 days and 30, with the interconnection
of stock sales ratio and stock holding time. As the stock holding days increase, the
inventory sales ratio declines and vice versa. When its stocks are converted, it
demonstrates the improved management efficiency of the firm.

CHAPTER – 5
Findings
Suggestions
Conclusion
78
FINDINGS:
● The inventory turnover ratio of the company is decreased because of the increase in
average inventory of the company over the cost of goods sold.
● Some inventories are ordered according to the minimum stock or level of the reorder.
● No specific method for valuing the specific kind of inventory has been followed.
● From the above data analysis we can observe that the ordering cost, carrying cost and
annual consumption of materials influences the ECONOMIC ORDER QUANTITY
(EOQ).
79
SUGGESTIONS
● The company has to control the annual consumption of materials in order to maintain
economic order quantity.
● In this respect, the Company is recommended that it balance the composition of its
current assets between its various components of the present assets, its inventory and
other assets.
● In order to reduce the costs and transport costs and produce material in time the
company has to follow proper inventory management techniques.
