INTRODUCTION TO THE STUDY

Everything has a price; nothing in this world is for free. These statements talks about the goods
and services available to consumers and customers alike throughout the globe. The
manufacturing industry is no way an exception to this statement, rather fact.
ORGINS OF THE WORD INVENTORY
The word inventory was first recorded in 1601. The French term inventoried, or “detailed list of
goods,” dates back to 1415.
BUSINESS INVENTORY
The inventory management system that control of process provides information to efficiently
manage the flow of materials, effectively utilize people and equipment, coordinate internal

activities, and communicate with customers Inventory management and the activities of
inventory control do not make decisions or manager operations; they provide the information to
managers who make more accurate and timely decisions to manage their operations. The
emphasis on each area will vary depending on the company and how it operates, and what
requirements are placed on it due to market demands. Each of the areas above will need to be
addressed in some form or another to have a successful program of inventory management and
control.
Inventories consistent the most significant part of current assets of the large majority of company
in India. On average, approximately 60 percentages of current assets are inventories in all
companies in India. Because of the large size of inventories maintained by firm, a considerable
amount of funds is required to be committed them. A firm neglecting the management of
inventories will be jeopardizing its long-run profitability and may fail ultimately. It is possible a
company to reduce its level of inventories to a considerable degree, e.g., 10 to 20 percent without
any adverse effect on production and sales by using simple inventory planning and control
techniques. The reduction in excessive inventories carries a favorable impact on a company’s
profitability.
Inventory is a list for goods and materials, or those goods and materials themselves, held
available in stock by a business. Supply delay is longer than delivery delay, and also to ease the
effect of imperfections in the manufacturing process that lower production efficiencies if
production capacity stands idle for lack of materials. effective and efficient management of
inventories helps in minimizing holding inventories, risk and losses due to stock out and keeping
the investment in inventories at a reasonable level.
MEANING OF INVENTORY
Inventory is the physical stoke of goods maintained in an organization for its smooth running. In
accounting language it may mean stock of finished goods only. In a manufacturing concern, it
may include raw materials, work-in-progress and stores etc. In the form of materials or supplies
to be consumed in the production process or in the rendering of services. In brief, Inventory is
unconsumed or unsold goods purchased or manufactured

Nature of inventories
Inventories are stock of the product of a company in manufacturing for a sale and component
that make up the product. The various forms of inventories.
?

Raw materials

?

Work-in progress

?

Finished goods

?

Spare parts.

Raw materials are those basic inputs that are converted into finished products through the
manufacturing process. Inventories are raw materials are those units, which have been purchased
and stored for future productions
Work-in progress inventories are semi-manufactured products. They represent products that
need more work before they become finished products for sale.
Finished goods inventories are those completely manufactured products, which are ready for
sale. Stocks of raw materials and work in progress facilitate production, while stock of finished
goods required for smooth marketing operation.
Spare parts include office and plant cleaning materials like soap, brooms, oil, fuel, light bulbs.
These materials do not directly involved production, but are necessary for production process.
The reasons for keeping stock
There are three basic reasons for keeping an inventory:
Time - the time lags present in the supply chain, from supplier to user at every stage, requires
that you maintain certain amount of inventory to use in this “lead time”.
Uncertainty –inventories are maintained as buffers to meet uncertainties in demand, supply and
movements of goods.

Economies of scale-ideal condition of “one unit at a time at a place where user needs it, when he
needs it” principle tends to incur lots of costs in terms of logistics. So bulk buying, movement
and storing brings in economies of scale, thus inventory.
OBJECTIVES INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
The purpose of inventory is to reduce materials holding cost that is inventory carrying cost and
the ordering costs. This helps the company’s to save their cost of capital and utilize their
resources for a better investment opportunity.
?

To maintain a large size of inventories of raw materials and work in progress for efficient and
smooth production and of finished goods for uninterrupted sales operation.

?

To maintain a minimum investment in inventories to maximize profitability.

?

To avoid the both over stocking and under stocking of inventory.

?

To keeping material cost under control so they contribute in reducing cost of production and
overall costs.

?

To ensure a right quantity goods at reasonable time

Operating Objectives
?

Ensuring Availability of Materials: There should be a continuous availability of all types of
raw materials in the factory so that the production may not be help up wants of any material.
A minimum quantity of each material should be held in store to permit production to move
on schedule.

?

Avoidance of Abnormal Wastage: There should be minimum possible wastage of materials
while these are being stored in the godowns or used in the factory by the workers. Wastage
should be allowed up to a certain level known as normal wastage. To avoid any abnormal
wastage, strict control over the inventory should be exercised. Leakage, theft, embezzlements
of raw material and spoilage of material due to rust, bust should be avoided.

?

Promotion of Manufacturing Efficiency: If the right type of raw material is available to the
manufacturing departments at the right time, their manufacturing efficiency is also increased.

?

Avoidance of Out of Stock Danger: Information about availability of materials should be
made continuously available to the management so that they can do planning for
procurement of raw material. It maintains the inventories at the optimum level keeping in
view the operational requirements. It also avoids the out of stock danger.

?

Better Service to Customers: Sufficient stock of finished goods must be maintained to
match reasonable demand of the customers for prompt execution of their orders.

?

Highlighting slow moving and obsolete items of materials.

?

Designing poorer organization for inventory management: Clear cut accountability
should be fixed at various levels of organization.

Financial Objectives
?

Economy in purchasing: A proper inventory control brings certain advantages and
economies in purchasing also. Every attempt has to make to effect economy in purchasing
through quantity and taking advantage to favorable markets.

?

Reasonable Price: While purchasing materials, it is to be seen that right quality of material
is purchased at reasonably low price. Quality is not to be sacrificed at the cost of lower price.
The material purchased should be of the quality alone which is needed.

?

Optimum Investing and Efficient Use of capital: The basic aim of inventory control from
the financial point of view is the optimum level of investment in inventories. There should be
no excessive investment in stock, etc. Investment in inventories must not tie up funds that

could be used in other activities. The determination of maximum and minimum level of stock
attempt in this direction.
BENEFITS OF INVENTORY CONTROL
?

Keeps down investment

?

Eliminates duplication

?

Better utilization of available stock

?

Minimizes stock out situations

?

Re-sale of obsolete inventory.

?

Adequate supply of materials

Cost associated with inventories
The effective management of inventory involves a trade-off between having too little and too
much inventory. In achieving this trade off , the finance manager should realize that costs may be
closely related.
?

Ordering costs

?

Carrying inventory costs

Ordering costs
The term ordering costs is used in case of raw materials and includes the entire costs of acquiring
raw material. Any manufacturing organization has to purchase materials. Ordering costs refer to
the cost associated with the preparation of requisition forms by the user department, set up costs
to be incurred by the manufacturing department and transport, inspection at the user department.
By and large, ordering costs remain more or less constant irrespective of the size of the order
although transportation and inspection cost may vary to a certain extent depending upon order
size. But this is not going to significantly affect the behavior of ordering costs. As ordering costs
are considered invariant to the order size, the total ordering costs can be reduced by increasing
the size of the orders

Carrying inventory costs
These are the expenses of storing goods. Once the goods have been accepted, they become part
of the firm’s inventories. These costs include insurance, rent/depreciation of warehouse, and
salaries of storekeeper, his assistants and security personnel, financing cost of money locked up
in inventories, obsolescence’s, spoilage and taxes.
By and large, carrying costs are considered to be given percentage of the value of inventory held
in warehouse, despite some of the fixed elements of costs that comprise only a small portion of
total carrying costs. Approximately, carrying costs are considered to be around 25 percentage of
the value of the inventory held in storage. The greater the investment in inventory, the greater the
carrying costs.

IMPORTANCE OF INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
1. COUNTING CURRENT STOCK
All businesses must know what they have on hand and evaluate stock levels with respect to
current and forecasted demands. You must know what you have in stock to ensure you can meet
the demands of customers and production and to be sure you are ordering enough stock in the
future. Counting is also important because it is the only way you will know if there is a problem
with theft occurring at some point in the supply chain. When you become aware of such
problems you can take steps to eliminate them.
2. CONTROLLING SUPPLY AND DEMAND

Whenever possible, obtain a commitment from a customer for a purchase. In this way, you
ensure that the items you order will not take space in your inventory for long. When this is not
possible, you may be able to share responsibility for the cost of carrying goods with the
salesperson, to ensure that an order placed actually results in a sale. You can also keep a list of
goods that can easily be sold to another party, should a customer cancel. Such goods can be
ordered without prior approval.
Approval procedures should be arranged around several factors. You should set minimum and
maximum quantities which your buyers can order without prior approval. This ensures that you
are maximizing any volume discounts available through your vendors and preventing over
ordering of stock. It is also important to require pre-approval on goods with a high carrying cost.
3. KEEPING ACCURATE RECORDS
Any time items arrive at or leave a warehouse, accurate paperwork should be kept, itemizing the
goods. When inventory arrives, this is when you will find breakage or loss on the goods you
ordered. Inventory leaving your warehouse must be counted to prevent loss between the
warehouse and the point of sale. Even samples should be recorded, making the salesperson
responsible for the goods until they are returned to the storage facility. Records should be
processed quickly, at least in the same day that the withdrawal of stock occurred.

4. MANAGING EMPLOYEES
Buyers are the employees who make stock purchases for your company. Reward systems should
be set in place that encourage high levels of customer service and return on investment for the
product lines the buyer manages. Warehouse employees should be educated on the costs of
improper inventory management. Be sure they understand that the lower your profit margin, the
more sales must be generated to make up for the lost goods. Incentive programs can help
employees keep this in perspective. When they see a difference in their paychecks from poor
inventory management, they are more likely to take precautions to prevent shrinkage.Each stock
item in your warehouse or back room should have its own procedures for replenishing the
supply. Find the best suppliers and storage location for each and record this information in
official procedures that can easily be accessed by your employees. Inventory management should

be a part of your overall strategic business plan. As the business climate evolves towards a green
economy, businesses are looking for ways to leverage this trend as part of the “big picture”. This
can mean re-evaluating your supply chain and choosing products that are environmentally sound.
It can also mean putting in place recycling procedures for packaging or other materials. In this
way, inventory management is more than a means to control costs; it becomes a way to promote
your business.
SUCCESSFUL INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Successful inventory management involves balancing the costs of inventory with the benefits of
inventory. Many small business owners fail to appreciate fully the true costs of carrying
inventory, which include not only direct costs of storage, insurance and taxes, but also the cost of
money tied up in inventory. This fine line between keeping too much inventory and not enough is
not the manager's only concern. Others include:
?

Maintaining a wide assortment of stock -- but not spreading the rapidly moving ones too thin

?

Increasing inventory turnover -- but not sacrificing the service level

?

Keeping stock low -- but not sacrificing service or performance.

?

Obtaining lower prices by making volume purchases -- but not ending up with slow moving
inventory

?

Having an adequate inventory on hand -- but not getting caught with obsolete items.

?

The degree of success in addressing these concerns is easier to gauge for some than for
others. For example, computing

ABOUT INVENTORY CONTROL
Inventory consists of the goods and materials that a retail business holds for sale or a
manufacturer keeps in raw materials for production. Inventory control is a means for maintaining
the right level of supply and reducing loss to goods or materials before they become a finished
product or are sold to the consumer. Inventory control is one of the greatest factors in a
company’s success or failure. This part of the supply chain has a great impact on the company’s
ability to manufacture goods for sale or to deliver customer satisfaction on orders of finished
products. Proper inventory control will balance the customer’s need to secure products quickly

with the business need to control warehousing costs. To manage inventory effectively, a business
must have a firm understanding of demand, and cost of inventory.

ADVANTAGES OF INVENTORY CONTROL
(1) Reduction in investment in inventory.
(2) Proper and efficient use of raw materials.
(3)No bottleneck in production.
(4) Improvement in production and sales.
(5) Efficient and optimum use of physical as well as financial resources.
(6)Ordering cost can be reduced if a firm places a few large orders in place of numerous small
orders.
(7)Maintenance of adequate inventories reduces the set-up cost associated with each production
run.

1.2 INDUSTRY PROFILE
The first car ran on India's roads in 1897. Until the 1930s, cars were imported directly, but in
very small numbers.
Embryonic automotive industry emerged in India in the 1940s.Mahindra&Mahindra was
established by two brothers as a trading company in 1945, and began assembly of Jeep CJ -3A
utility vehicles under license from Willys. The company soon branched out into the manufacture
of Light Commercial Vehciles (LCVs) and agricultural tractors.
Following the Independence, in 1947, the Government of India and the privaesector launched
efforts to create an automotive component manufacturing industry to supply to the automobile

industry. However, the growth was relatively slow in the 1950s and 1960s due
to nationalisation and the license raj which hampered the Indian private sector. After 1970, the
automotive industry started to grow, but the growth was mainly driven by tractors, commercial
vehicles and scooters. Cars were still a major luxury. Japanese manufacturers entered the Indian
market ultimately leading to the establishment of Maruti. A number of foreign firms initiated
joint ventures with Indian companies.
In the 1980s, a number of Japanese manufacturers launched joint-ventures for building motor
cycles and light commercial-vehicles. It was at this time that the Indian government chose
Suzukifor its joint-venture to manufacture small cars. Following the economic liberalisation in
1991 and the gradual weakening of the license raj, a number of Indian and multi-national car
companies launched operations. Since then, automotive component and automobile
manufacturing growth has accelerated to meet domestic and export demands.
Following economic liberalization in India in 1991, the Indian automotive industry has
demonstrated sustained growth as a result of increased competitiveness and relaxed restrictions.
Several Indian automobile manufacturers such as Tata Motors, Maruti Suzuki and Mahindra and
Mahindra, expanded their domestic and international operations. India's robust economic
growth led to the further expansion of its domestic automobile market which has attracted
significant India-specific investment by multinational automobile manufacturers. In February
2009, a monthly sale of passenger cars in India exceeded 100,000 units and has since grown
rapidly to a record monthly high of 182,992 units in October 2009. From 2003 to 2010, car sales
in India have progressed at a CAGR of 13.7%, and with only 10% of Indian households owning
a car in 2009 (whereas this figure reaches 80% in Switzerland for example) this progression is
unlikely to stop in the coming decade. Congestion of Indian roads, more than market demand,
will likely be the limiting factor.
SIAM is the apex industry body representing all the vehicle manufacturers, home-grown and
international, in India.
The level of technology change in the Motor vehicle Industry has been high but, the rate of
change in technology has been medium. Investment in the technology by the producers has been

high. System-suppliers of integrated components and sub-systems have become the order of the
day. However, further investment in new technologies will help the industry be more
competitive. Over the past few years, the industry has been volatile. Currently, India's increasing
per capita disposable income which is expected to rise by 106% by 2015 and growth in exports is
playing a major role in the rise and competitiveness of the industry.
Tata Motors is leading the commercial vehicle segment with a market share of about 64%.
Maruti Suzuki is leading the passenger vehicle segment with a market share of 46%. Hyundai
Motor India and Mahindra and Mahindra are focusing expanding their footprint in the overseas
market. Hero Honda Motors is occupying over 41% and sharing 26% of the two wheeler market
in India with Bajaj Auto. Bajaj Auto in itself is occupying about 58% of the three wheeler
market.
Consumers are very important of the survival of the Motor Vehicle manufacturing industry. In
2008-09, customer sentiment dropped, which burned on the augmentation in demand of cars.
Steel is the major input used by manufacturers and the rise in price of steel is putting a cost
pressure on manufacturers and cost is getting transferred to the end consumer. The price of oil
and petrol affect the driving habits of consumers and the type of car they buy.
The key to success in the industry is to improve labour productivity, labour flexibility, and capital
efficiency. Having quality manpower, infrastructure improvements, and raw material availability
also play a major role. Access to latest and most efficient technology and techniques will bring
competitive advantage to the major players. Utilising manufacturing plants to optimum level and
understanding implications from the government policies are the essentials in the Automotive
Industry of India.
Both, Industry and Indian Government are obligated to intervene the Indian Automotive industry.
The Indian government should facilitate infrastructure creation, create favourable and predictable
business environment, attract investment and promote research and development. The role of
Industry will primarily be in designing and manufacturing products of world-class quality
establishing cost competitiveness and improving productivity in labour and in capital. With a

combined effort, the Indian Automotive industry will emerge as the destination of choice in the
world for design and manufacturing of automobiles.
Automotive spare parts and components is a lesser known industry yet a big one. In past few
years the industry has grown enormously, even more than the automotive industry itself not only
in the Indian but global scenario. This vast industry includes automotive components,
accessories, gadgets, spare parts and tools; the consumers being the OEM segment and the
replacement and aftermarket sector. Automotive spare parts replacement and aftermarket have in
themselves become a major industry. In mid 1990’s the quality of Indian products increased a lot
and the prices were considerably lowered. This posed an interesting situation where the Indian
replacement and aftermarket industry had geared up to meet the international standards and
awaited an ideal opportunity for global exposure.
Certain SME’s through their focused operations are now serving the global automotive giants
directly or through suppliers. Online catalogs and websites have added to the online presence of
our clients.
The results are quite apparent, Indian automotive parts industry makes original components of
major automotive giants like General Motors and Mercedes amongst others. They have, through
consolidated efforts been positioned as global players of the sector.

About the Founder

An obsessive hobby went into the making of this self-made industrialist. Born in an agricultural
family, young Mr.K.Ramasamy had a great interest in repairing automobiles. This led to his
getting the master's degree in Automobile Engineering from Lincoln Technical Institute, USA in
1969 and developing a unique Radiator Coolant Recovery System, which is today a standard
equipment in almost all vehicles manufactured by the advanced countries.
In 1970, Mr.K.Ramasamy promoted M/s. American Auto Service, which was taken over in 1992
by Roots Industries Private Limited, a company promoted by Mr.K.Ramasamy. This company
entered into technical collaboration with Robert Bosch, the world leaders in auto electrical to
manufacture all the range of Bosch Horns. Mr.K.Ramasamy had a very inquisitive and
innovative temperament. This led to his having many first in his distinguished career.
Servo brakes were designed for the first time in India by Mr.K.Ramasamy. He designed the first
high frequency Wind Tone type horn which was smaller and lighter than conventional horns.
Besides all the other firsts, Mr.K.Ramasamy introduced electronically controlled Musical Air
Horns for the first time in the World. The thirst for innovation and drive to move forward, led to
the establishment of a die casting unit to meet the captive requirement of ROOTS. In 1987,
Mr.K.Ramasamy set up a full-fledged modern tool room equipped with the latest machines for
the manufacture of precision tools and dies. He promoted Roots Multiclean Ltd., a joint venture
in Techno-financialcollaboration with M/s. HakoWerke GmbH, Germany to manufacture world
class Industrial Floor Care and Floor Cleaning Equipments. RMCL is successfully spreading the
concept of Mechanized Cleaning in India and also exports its products to various countries

The following tools used for this study
?

Economic order quantity

?

ABC analysis

?

XYZ analysis

?

FSN analysis

?

Ratio analysis

2.3.5.1. Economic order quantity
Economic order quantity is that level of inventory that minimizes the total of inventory holding
cost and ordering cost. The framework used to determine this order quantity is also known as
Wilson EOQ Model. The model was developed by F. W. Harris in 1913.The most economical
quantity of a product that should be purchased at one time. The EOQ is based on all associated

costs for ordering and maintaining the product. EOQ refers to the size of the order which gives
maximum economy in punches of materials.
Total cost

Carryingcost
Annual cost

Ordering cost

Formula
EOQ = ? (2DA/h)
Where,
D = Annual usage in unit.
A= Ordering cost.
h= Carrying cost of one unit
2.3.5.2. ABC Analysis
ABC analysis is a business term used to define an inventory categorization technique often used
in materials management. ABC analysis provides a mechanism for identifying items which will
have a significant impact on overall inventory cost whilst also providing a mechanism for
identifying different categories of stock that will require different management and controls
When carrying out an ABC analysis, inventory items are valued (item cost multiplied by quantity
issued/consumed in period) with the results then ranked. The results are then grouped typically
into three bands. These bands are called ABC codes.
Formula

Total Value = Total Quantity * Cost Per Order
Consumption Value Percentage = (Total Value of Item/ Value of single Item) *100
ABC codes
1. "A class" inventory will typically contain items that account for 60% of total value
2. "B class" inventory will have around 20% of total value
3. "C class" inventory will account for the remaining 20%
2.3.5.3. XYZ ANALYSIS
The XYZ analysis to review the inventories and their uses at scheduled intervals. The XYZ
analysis, done once in a year helps to identify the item that is being stocked extensively.
X – Item with high inventory value
Y – Item with moderate inventory value
Z – Item with low inventory value
Formula
Total value = Annual usage in unit * Cost per unit
2.3.5.4. FSN Analysis
Based on the consumption of the items, the FSN classification calls for classification of items, as
F-Fast moving
S-Slow moving
N-Non moving
This ‘speed’ classification helps in the arrangement of stocks in the stores and in determining the
distribution and handling patterns. When analysis is carried out on the basis of the rate of
movement of materials in the stores or on the basis of consumption pattern of components, it is
called FSN analysis.
This classification comes in very handy when it is necessary to control obsolescence. The
demand for fast-moving items is generally high. Thus special care should be taken in respect of
these items; otherwise the production may be interrupted due to the shortage of such materials.
Inventories which have only a low turnover are brought under the category of slow-items. These
items are not issued at frequent intervals.

The items with almost nil consumption are brought under the category of non-moving.
2.3.5.5. INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO:
This ratio shows how many times a company’s inventory is sold and replaced over a period.
The day in the period can be the be divided by the inventory turnover formula to calculate the
Day its make to sell the inventory on hand or inventory days.
FORMULA
Inventory turnover ratio = cost of goods sold (or) sales/ Average inventory
Average inventory = (opening stock + closing stock)/2

2.4 REVIEW OF LITERATURE
Success of any industrial undertaking depends upon the 6 m’s 1) Money 2) Manpower
3)Machine 4) Market 5) Material 6) Management.
Materials are pivotal importance not less than any other M’s. Problems have their root in
material affects the efficiency of all men, machine, money & marketing decisions of the firms
and thus become the grave concern of management at all levels. If there were too much of
material problems like ideal funds lied up in excessive inventory storage and obsolesces
difficulties market pressure would arise. Thus the importance of inventory management is
realized. A number of studies have been done in the field of inventory management by various
researchers. Some of them are given below;
1

Author:- Bern at de William year 2008

This study tells that the main focus of inventory management is on transportation and
warehousing. The decision taken by management depends on the traditional method of inventory
control models. The traditional method of inventory management is how much useful in these
days the author tell about it. He is also saying that the traditional method is not a cost reducing, it
is so much expensive. But the managing the inventory is most important work for any
manufacturing unit.
2. Author: - Jon Schreibfeder 1992
He said that it is easy to turn cash into inventory, the challenge is to turn inventory back into
cash. In early 1990’s many distributor recognize that they needed help controlling and managing
their largest asset inventory. In response to this need several companies developed
comprehensive inventory management modules and systems. These new package include many
new features designed to help distributors effectively managed warehouse stock. But after
implementing this many distributors do not feel that they have gained control of their inventory.

3. Author:-Wolf Bagby, Managing inventory
In this study Mr.W.Bagby explains that by managing the inventory it becomes easier for the
organization to meet the profit goals, shorter the cash cycle, avoid inventory shortage, avoid
excessive carrying costs for unused inventory, and improve profitability by decreasing cash
conversion and adopt JIT system. According to this study companies need to get smart about
inventory. Boosting financial performance is another benefit that comes from better inventory
management. Infect large number of manufacturers enjoy savings and better performance by
choosing the approach of inventory reduction. For this company needs to maximize the cash
flow and profitability and this includes keeping a watchful discerning eye on charge in supply
and demand
4. Author: - Asfaque Ahmed October 12, 2004
(Article from master requirement planning and master production scheduling)
He said that most of the manufacturing company vendors have planning and scheduling product
which assume either infinite production capacity for calculating quantities of row material and
work in progress (WIP) requirements or infinite quantities of raw material and WIP materials for
calculating production capacity. There are many problems with this approach and how to avoid
these by making sure that the product you are buying indeed takes into account finite quantities
of required materials as well as finite capacities of work centers in your manufacturing facilities.
5. Author:-D.Hoopman April 7, 2003
(Article from inventory planning and optimization)
In this article he said that inventory optimization recognize that different industry have different
inventory profiles and requirements. Research has indicated that solutions are priced in a large
range from tens of thousands of dollars to millions of dollars. In this niche market sector price is
definitely not an indicator of the quality of solution, ROI and usability are paramount.

6. Author:-Silver, Edward A Dec22, 2002
(Article from production and inventory management journal)
This article considers the context of a population of items for which the assumption underlying
the EOQ derivation holds reasonably well. However as is frequently the cash in practices there is
an aggregate constraint that applies to the population as a whole. Two common forms of
constraints are:
1) The existence of budget to be allocated among the stocks of the items
2) A purchasing production facility having the capability to process at most a certain number of
replenishment per year. Because of the constraint the individual replenishment quantities cannot
be selected independently.
7. Author:- Charles Atkinson
(A study on inventory management)
In the study by Mr. Charles Atkinson, he explained the inventory management and assessment of
inventory levels. As per this study inventory management need to address two issue
Part I. How to optimize average inventory levels.
Part II. How to assess (evaluate) inventory levels.
This study tells about what the manager should do and not to do, and how much amount should
be order in one placed orders. Average inventory can be calculated by simplistic method.
Average inventory = beginning inventory +end inv/2
8. Author:-Delaunay C ,Sahin E, 2007.
A lots of work has been done but now if we want to go ahead we must have good visibility upon
this field of research. That is why we are focused on frame work for an exhaustive review on the
problem of supply chain management with inventory inaccuracies . The author said that their aim
in this work is also to present the most important criterion that allow a distinction between the
different type of managing the inventory.

INFERENCE
The table shows the inventory turnover ratio. The ratio was high in 2011-12(9.14), medium in
2010-11(8.65) and this ratio was low in 2013-14(6.61). It is observed that variation in the ratio is
due to change in sales. Average stock shows a steady growth during the period of 5 years. So the
company is using inventory effectively.

CHART NO. 21

3.5.1. INVENTORY TURNOVER RATIO

CHAPTER-IV
FINDINGS, RECOMMENDATIONS AND CONCLUSION
4.1. FINDINGS
? Inventory control techniques like EOQ analysis, ABC analysis, XYZ analysis, and Ratio
analysis are very significant in the manufacturing industries, in order to have a good control
and management over the large number of inventories kept in the stores.
? When we adopting EOQ technique in organization it will save more inventory cost.
? In ABC analysis 60% of items will be graded as “A” category and 25% of items classified
as “B” category and 15% of items classified as “C” category
? From the total XYZ Classification. 65 % of items classified as “X” category and 25% of
items classified as “Y” category and 10% of items classified as “Z” category.
? In FSN Classification. 40% of items classified as “Fast Moving” category and 55% of items
classified as “Slow Moving” category and 5% of items classified as “Non Moving” category.
? The inventory turnover ratio was high in 2011-12(9.14) and this ratio was low in 2013 14(6.61). It indicates the efficient management of inventory.
? This shows that an idle turnover ratio was maintained and this is considered as a positive
indicator of operating efficiency and good from the point of view of liquidity.
? Company’s aim to achieve more sale it may require huge amount of inventory in future.
? There is good relationship between company and their distributors, vendors and sales
executives.

4.2. RECOMMENDATIONS
? To maintain the Re-order level, Min-stock level and Economic order quantity, company
should consider the demand of the product. So that the total Inventory cost will be reduced.
? ‘X’ items have high stock value. The company should take special effort to reduce these
items.
? It is suggested that they can have close monitoring of receipts and issue for A class items in
order to have control of inventory.
? The company shall regulate the further procurement of inputs. System in the inventory
should be standardized.
? It has been predicted that if company is planning to achieve more sale, it may require huge
amount of inventory in future. So the company has to arrange capital to meet future
requirement.
·
? The stock of fast moving items has to be taken care, since non - availability of these stock
will lead to stock out costs. All non - moving stock can be examined and immediate dispose
of unnecessary non - moving stock can be made in order to reduce the inventory stock in
number of days.

? Proper communication should be maintained from dispatch section to store department, about
quantity wasted. Feedback about the quantity wasted will help the store department to
forecast future requirements and to focus on minimum possible waste.

4.3. CONCLUSION
Managing and controlling of inventories, i.e., say raw materials, components, spare parts,
