Q. 62. Calculate Proprietary Ratio, if Total Assets to Debt Ratio is 2 : 1. Debt is ₹ 5,00,000.
Equity Shares Capital is 0.5 times of debt. Preference Shares Capital is 25% of equity share capital. Net Profit before tax is ₹ 10,00,000 and rate of tax is 40%.
[Ans.: Proprietary Ratio = 0.912 : 1 or 91.2:.]
Solution:-


Q. 63. State, with reason, whether the Proprietary Ratio will improve, decline or will not change because of the following transactions if Proprietary Ratio is 0.8 : 1.
(i) Obtained a loan of ₹ 5,00,000 from State Bank of India payable after five years.
(ii) Purchased machinery of ₹ 2,00,000 by cheque.
(iii) Redeemed 7% Redeemable Preference Shares ₹ 3,00,000.
(iv) Issued equity shares to the vendor of building purchased for ₹ 7,00,000.
(v) Redeemed 10% redeemable debentures of ₹ 6,00,000.
[Ans.: (i) Decline; (ii) No Change, (iii) Decline; (iv) Improve, (v) Improve.]
Solution:-
(i) Obtained a loan of ₹ 5,00,000 from State Bank of India payable after five years.
The proprietary ratio will be affected by obtaining a loan of ₹ 5,00,000 payable after five years, and here’s how:
Proprietary Ratio Formula:
= Shareholder’s Funds/Total Assets
- Shareholders’ Funds: Includes share capital, reserves, and retained earnings.
- Total Assets: Includes both fixed and current assets.
- Effect of Loan:
- By obtaining a loan, total assets increase because the cash received from the loan is added to the company’s assets.
- However, shareholders’ funds remain unchanged, as the loan is a liability and does not affect equity.
- Impact on Proprietary Ratio:
- The numerator (shareholders’ funds) remains constant.
- The denominator (total assets) increases due to the addition of ₹ 5,00,000 from the loan.
- Since the denominator increases while the numerator stays constant, the proprietary ratio will decrease from its original value of 0.8 : 1, reflecting lower reliance on shareholders’ funds compared to total assets.
(ii) Purchased machinery of ₹ 2,00,000 by cheque.
The purchase of machinery worth ₹ 2,00,000 by cheque will affect the proprietary ratio, and here’s how:
Proprietary Ratio Formula:
= Shareholder’s Funda/Total Assets
- Shareholders’ Funds: Includes share capital, reserves, and retained earnings.
- Total Assets: Includes both fixed and current assets.
- Impact of Transaction:
- Purchasing machinery increases fixed assets (part of total assets) by ₹ 2,00,000.
- Simultaneously, paying via cheque reduces cash/bank balance, so the total assets remain unchanged.
- Shareholders’ funds are also unaffected because this transaction does not involve equity adjustments.
- Final Effect:
- Since neither the numerator (shareholders’ funds) nor the denominator (total assets) changes, the proprietary ratio remains the same at 0.8 : 1.
(iii) Redeemed 7% Redeemable Preference Shares ₹ 3,00,000.
Given the assumed values:
- Shareholders’ Funds (before redemption): ₹ 8,00,000
- Total Assets (before redemption): ₹ 10,00,000
Let’s calculate the proprietary ratio before redemption:
Proprietary Ratio
= Shareholder’s Funds/Total Assets =
= 8,00,000/10,00,000 = 0.8 : 1
Now, consider the redemption of ₹ 3,00,000 preference shares:
- Shareholders’ Funds (after redemption): [ 8,00,000 – 3,00,000 = ₹ 5,00,000 ]
- Total Assets (after redemption): [ 10,00,000 – 3,00,000 = ₹ 7,00,000 ]
Recalculate the proprietary ratio after redemption:
Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders’ Funds\Total Assets
= 5,00,000/7,00,000 = 0.714 : 1 (approx)
Impact: The proprietary ratio decreases from 0.8 : 1 to 0.714 : 1, reflecting reduced reliance on shareholders’ funds relative to total assets.
Reason:-
Shareholders’ Funds:– Includes equity share capital, reserves, and retained earnings. Preference shares (redeemable) are part of shareholders’ funds until redeemed.
Total Assets:- Includes all fixed and current assets.
Impact of Redemption:– Redeeming preference shares decreases shareholders’ funds by ₹ 3,00,000, as this amount is paid out to the preference shareholders.
If the redemption is made from cash or bank balances, total assets also decrease by ₹ 3,00,000.
(iv) Issued equity shares to the vendor of building purchased for ₹ 7,00,000.
Let’s analyze the effect of issuing equity shares to the vendor for a building worth ₹ 7,00,000, given:
- Shareholders’ Funds (before transaction): ₹ 8,00,000
- Total Assets (before transaction): ₹ 10,00,000
Proprietary Ratio (before transaction):
= Shareholders’ Funds\Total Assets
= 8,00,000/10,00,000 = 0.8 : 1
Effects of the Transaction:
- Increase in Shareholders’ Funds:
- Equity shares worth ₹ 7,00,000 are issued, increasing shareholders’ funds to: [ 8,00,000 + 7,00,000 = ₹ 15,00,000 ]
- Increase in Total Assets:
- The building is added as an asset worth ₹ 7,00,000, increasing total assets to: [ 10,00,000 + 7,00,000 = ₹ 17,00,000 ]
Proprietary Ratio After the Transaction:
Proprietary Ratio} = Shareholders’ Funds\Total Assets
= 15,00,000/17,00,000
= 0.882 : 1 (approx)
Impact:
The proprietary ratio increases from 0.8 : 1 to approximately 0.882 : 1. This reflects a stronger reliance on shareholders’ funds compared to total assets, indicating improved financial stability.
(v) Redeemed 10% redeemable debentures of ₹ 6,00,000.
Let’s analyze the effect of redeeming ₹ 6,00,000 worth of 10% redeemable debentures, given:
- Shareholders’ Funds (before redemption): ₹ 8,00,000
- Total Assets (before redemption): ₹ 10,00,000
Proprietary Ratio (before redemption):-
Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders’ Funds\Total Assets
= 8,00,000/10,00,000
= 0.8 : 1
Effects of the Redemption:
- No Change to Shareholders’ Funds:
- Redeeming debentures does not affect shareholders’ funds, as these are liabilities and not part of equity.
- Decrease in Total Assets:
- If ₹ 6,00,000 is paid for the redemption from cash or bank balances, total assets will decrease by ₹ 6,00,000.
Revised Values:
- Shareholders’ Funds (after redemption): ₹ 8,00,000 (unchanged)
- Total Assets (after redemption): [ 10,00,000 – 6,00,000 = ₹ 4,00,000 ]
Proprietary Ratio After Redemption:
Proprietary Ratio = Shareholders’ Funds\Total Assets
= 8,00,000/4,00,000
= 2 : 1
Impact:
- The proprietary ratio increases significantly, from 0.8 : 1 to 2 : 1, indicating a stronger reliance on shareholders’ funds relative to total assets.
Q. 64. From the following information, calculate:
(a) Proprietary Ratio;
(b) Debt to Equity Ratio; and
(c) Total Assets to Debt Ratio.
| Current Assets | ₹ 40,00,000 |
| Long-term Borrowings | ₹ 15,00,000 |
| Non-Current Assets | ₹ 40,00,000 |
| Current Liabilities | ₹ 20,00,000 |
| Long-term Provisions | ₹ 25,00,000 |
[Ans.: (a) Proprietary Ratio = 25%; (b) Debt to Equity Ratio = 2 : 1; (c) Total Assets to Debt Ratio = 2 : 1.]
Solution:-
