This presentation comes from the HIMALI Local Resource Person (LRP) Training. In this presentation the HIMALI team provided instruction on how to properly prepare grant application tables, profit & loss accounts, balance sheets, and basic cash flow. The Local Resource Person develops the business plans that is acceptable to HIMALI and government officials. Their primary responsibility is to identify proponents and to help them apply for HIMALI grants. LRPs also work to gain grant support. The LRP will cooperate with the district DCCI and District Project Coordinator, based either at the District Agricultural Development Office (DADO) (Solukhumbu, Manang, Dolpa, Mugu and Humla) or at the District Livestock Services Office (DLSO) (Sankhuwasabha, Dolakha, Rasuwa, Mustang, Jumla); and with AEC district planning specialists. They also work closely with the Social mobilizers, as well as with Roster Specialists based in Kathmandu.

39. Accounting Convention
Business Entity Concept
• States that a business is treated as a separate entity from its
owners for accounting profit
Going Concern
• Assumes that business will continue to exist for the foreseeable
future while preparing financial statements
Accrual Basis
• Under accrual basis, the effects of transactions and other
events are recognized when they occur (and not as cash or its
equivalent are received or paid)
Page 39
Training Session-LRP & AEC
HIMALI
40. Accounting Convention
Matching Concept
• The profit & loss account has to match the revenue earned to
the cost of earning that revenue
– Cost of Goods sold (Production less sales= closing stock)
– Prepayments
– Accrual Expenses
Prudence Concept
• The inclusion of a degree of caution in the exercise of the
judgements needed in making the estimates required under
conditions of uncertainty, such that assets or income are not
overstated and liabilities or expense are not understated
Page 40
Training Session-LRP & AEC
HIMALI
41. Accounting Convention
Consistency
• The presentation and classification of the items on the financial
statements should stay the same from one period to the next.
Materiality and aggregation
• All material items should be disclosed in the financial
statements
• Amounts which are immaterial can be aggregated with amounts
of similar nature or function and need not be presented
separately.
Page 41
Training Session-LRP & AEC
HIMALI
42. Accounting Convention
Substance over form
• The principle that transactions and other events are accounted
for and presented in accordance with their substance and
economic reality and not merely their legal form
Money Measurement
• States that accounts will only deal with those items to which a
monetary values can be attributed
Historical Cost Convention
• Means that transactions are recorded at the cost when they
occur
Page 42
Training Session-LRP & AEC
HIMALI
43. Accounting Convention
Stable Monetary Unit
• It is assumed that the value of the monetary unit to express financial
statements remains constant over the time
Objectivity
• Means that accountant must be free from bias
Realisation
• Means that revenue and profits are recognized when realised
Duality
• Every transaction has two effects. i.e. Double entry bookkeeping
Time Interval
• Must be prepared covering time. i.e. One year

– Revenue earned from sales of goods/products or services even
though cash may not have been received by the business
– Number of items sold X selling price per item.
Cost of Sales / Cost of Goods Sold
– costs directly involved in producing product eg. materials, direct labour.
Gross Profit
– Highly significant figure as it represents the profit made from sale of
goods/services
– Sales revenue – cost of sales .

Trout Farm
• Trout Fry
– Based on the size of Raceway
– Of the 46,750 trout fry that are stocked, about 20 % mortality will be
expected before the trout reach 200 grams (marketable size).
– Technical Parameter: 1 cubic meter of the raceway can stock about 300400 fry (1-2 gm size) and the same volume can stock 150-200 developing
fry (> 50 gm and < 150 gm size), and the same volume of raceway can
stock about 50-80 gram trout (>150 gm and < 250 gm).
– The 16 raceways totaling about 744 cubic meters of water will be
stocked with 46,750 trout fry (each 1-2 grams) and will be used to
produce about 7480 kilograms of trout (that is, about 10.05 kg per cubic
meter).

Capital & Equity
• Capital is the money invested in a business by the
Entrepreneur/Shareholder. Capital is a long-term source of finance.
• In return for their investment, Entrepreneur/shareholders gain a share of the
ownership of the company.
• Once the investment has been made, it is the company that owns the money
provided.
• The shareholder obtains a return on this investment through dividends
(payments out of profits) and/or increases in the value of the company when
it is eventually sold.
• Consist of:
– Share Capital
– Grant
– Retained Earnings (Profit retained by business for further investment)
– Reserves

Characteristic of good performance measures:
•
•
•
•
•
Measure performance from a financial, nonfinancial,
qualitative and quantitative
Attuned to the needs of decision makers
Attention to the accuracy of data and calculation of
measures
Allow stakeholders to independently judge an organisation’s
performance
Identify where improvements should be made and what
resources are required

Profitability Ratios/Measures
•
•
•
•
•
ROCE: Profit/Capital employed
Gross profit Margin: Gross profit/sales x 100%
Net profit margin: Net profit/sales x 100%
Asset Turnover: Sales/capital employed
EBITDA

Net Present Value
•
•
•
•
Performance measure based on discounted cash flow (DCF)
Looks at the present value (PV) of all cash inflows less the PV
of all the cash outflows of a project
Represents the increase in value of an organization today as
the result of accepting the project being reviewed
Prime decision rule: Any project that generate a positive
NPV is viable.

Net Present Value
Advantages
Disadvantages
Strong correlation with shareholder
value
Difficult to calculate/understand
Consider the time value of money
Does not easily allow two projects of
very different scales to be compared
Risk can be allowed by adjusting cost Based on assumption about cash
of capital
flow, timing of cash flow and
appropriate cost of capital
Shareholders are interested in cash
flows and profit maximization
Cash flow are less subject to
manipulation & subjective than
accounting profit

Net Present Value: Test
DEMAC invest in a new machine at the beginning of year 1
which costs NRs. 15,000. It is estimated that following net cash
will flow to DEMAC. Calculate the NPV assuming 15% cost of
capital.

IRR: Internal Rate of Return
•
•
•
•
The IRR is the discount rate when NPV=0
When presented with uncertainty over the cost of capital,
some managers prefer to assess project by IRR
Accept the project if its IRR> business’s cost of capital
Steps to calculate IRR:
• Calculate NPV using any rate close to cost of capital
• Having calculated the NPV using the first rate,
• if NPV is positive, use a second rate that is higher
than first rate
• If NPV is negative, use a second rate that is less than
the first rate.
• Use the two NPV values to calculate IRR

IRR: Internal Rate of Return
•
Formula of IRR: a+ {(A/A-B)(b-a)}%
Where a= the lower of the two rates used
b= the higher of the two rate used
A=the NPV obtained using rate a
B=the NPV obtained using rate b

Liquidity & Gearing Indicators
•
•
•
•
Liquidity is the amount of cash a company can obtain quickly
to settle its debts
Companies can be highly profitable but get into trouble
when they run out of cash.
Therefore liquidity needs to be considered alongside
profitability when appraising a company’s situation
Financial gearing is the use of debt finance to increase the
return on equity used. High gearing increases the risk in the
company.

Liquidity Ratio:
•
•
•
•
Current Ratio: Current Asset/Current Liability
Finished goods period: (Average value of finished goods/cost
of sales) x 365
Receivable period: (Av. Receivable/Sales) x 365
Payable period: (Av. Payables/purchases) x 365
Gearing Ratio:
• Gearing=(Long term debt/shareholder capital) x 100%
• Interest Cover= PBIT/Interest Cost
