INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background of the Bank
The commercial bank is the oldest form of bank. There is considerable change in the
original form of commercial bank. In general, bank means the commercial bank. Hence, the
definitions of bank are also equally applicable to commercial banks. The profit
maximization is the
commercial bank itself is a misnomer. It does not separate bank from other financial
institutions. This name was an A bank is an institution, which deals with money and credit.
It accepts deposit from the public, creates credit, exchanges loan transmits fund from one
place to another. When a ban performs multiple tasks, the efficiency and effectiveness of
work becomes weak. Hence, different banks are established for different purposes.
Appropriate at the time when the banks used to grant the commercial loans to the
traders for production, transport and storage of commodities.
Certainly, no comparison can be made between ancient and modern banks. In the
ancient time, merchants, moneylender and gold smiths used to perform the work of banking
in every country. The merchants used to exchange the gold, silver and gems. The
moneylenders were found lending and borrowing money even in quite primitive
communities whereas, goldsmiths become the precursor of the modern bank note and the
forerunners of the modern banking institutions. Hence, the banks started to carry out the
works of creating credit, issuing the notes, depositing, lending, transacting the bills of
exchange and promissory note etc.
In conclusion, we can say that banking is not static but dynamic concept. It is a
product of centuries and the development which has taken place is the product of a method
of trial and error and experiences which were made and the results that followed relating to
the acceptance of money and valuables as deposits, keeping them as such, lending them,
whether to private individuals, to states of other bodies and for controlling the multifarious
and multi-dimensional activities which, in the beginning were only trivial and could be
ignored but with the growth of time, become international in character and multidimensional in nature calling for actions on the part of the states as the actions on the part of
the individuals failed and state control become eminent.
patrons through efficient and cost effective service delivery through its consumer, business
banking and treasury divisions.
Liquidity Ratio
Bank is an institution, which deals on money. Cash is the most liquid fund and it is
considered as the defense of banks. The bank should maintain certain amount of cash in
order to meet its cash requirements of the depositors. The structure of the cash will be in the
form of cash in its vault, cash kept in central bank of the country. NPB has directed all the
commercial banks to maintain certain percentage of cash and bank balance for the purpose
of maintenance of liquidity.
1.3.2
Profitability Ratio
Profitability ratio indicates the degree of success in achieving desired profit. A bank
should earn profit to survive and grow over a long period of time and contribute to the social
overheads for the welfare of the society. Profit is the major aspect, which influences entire
decision-making process. The profitability ratio furnishes answers to how efficiently the
bank is being managed. Although profitability ratio mainly studies the earning power of the
firm (bank), it depicts almost entire performance of the bank.
The study will be done according to the information provided by the banks
and not
Secondary data will occupy its significant position in the study: research based on
secondary data is not far from limitations.
This study covers the analysis of only five years data from FY 2006/07 to FY
2010/11; hence, the conclusion drawn confirms to the above periods only.
The only major financial statements like Balance Sheet, Income Statement, Profit &
Loss a/c, Cash Flow Statement has been taken for the analysis.
The study focuses only on the liquidity and profitability analysis and does not cover
other aspect of activities.
The ratio and tools that is used in the study may vary due to different definition of
terms given by different authors.
collection from NIC Bank. The published financial data are mostly used in this study to
analyze the liquidity and profitability analysis for NIC Bank, visibly Balance Sheet and
P&L a/c are the only base of this study which are secondary in nature. The basic secondary
data in the form of published annual report of different years are collected. Thus, study
basically uses the secondary data, which were firstly collected and tabulated into separate
form systematically. Simple statistical analysis, such as percentage is calculated where
necessary and these are presented and analyzed in descriptive way.

sample is to be taken and the term sample is that part of the population, which we select
for the purpose of investigation. Population refers not only to people but totality of all
observations that have been selected for the study. Population is also known as universe.
Sample refers to a part chosen from the population. Thus, in statistics, population means
whole and the sample means the part of the whole.
Since, this study is focused on the banks, thus, here the population encompasses all
the commercial banks functioning its operations within the country. Since, study of whole
population may not be effective due to several factors, thus, sampling becomes essential to
inference for the population. So, among all the commercial banks, NIC Bank has been
selected randomly as sample.
1.6.3
Sources of Data
Analysis of data means to study the tabulation material in order to determine
inherent facts or meanings. It involves breaking down the existing complex factors into
simpler part and putting them together in new arrangements for interpretation. A plan of
analysis should be prepared in advance before the actual collection of the material. A
preliminary analysis plan for investigation process requires detailed information about
similarities, differences, trends, outstanding factors etc.
Data can be classified into 2 groups namely, primary and secondary data. Data
collected by researcher or through agent for the first time from related field and possessing
original character are known as primary data. Primary data are also called first source. On
the other hand, data collected by someone else, used already and are made available to
others in the form of published statistics are known as secondary data. Once primary data
have been used, it loses its primary characteristics and become secondary. The difference
between primary and secondary data is a matter of relativity. Primary data are generally used
in those cases where the secondary data do not provide an adequate basis for analysis. In
certain cases, both data may be employed.
CHAPTER- 2
DATA PRESENTATION AND ANALYSIS
2.1 Introduction
This chapter entitled Presentation and Analysis of Data is a crucial chapter and has
been organized to present the result and analyze them accordingly. The basic objective of
this study is to observe and analyze the liquidity and profitability position if NIC Bank. The
presentation and analysis of data in this study have been done through the help of financial
statements of the year from FY 2006/07 to FY 2010/11.
Data collected for the analysis of liquidity and profitability position of NIC Bank are
presented in the form of tabular form and are analyzed with the help of widely accepted
tools of ratio analysis i.e. liquidity and profitability ratios.
Current Ratio
Current ratio establishes the relationship between current assets and current
liabilities. It includes all those assets, which are in the form of cash or can be converted into
cash in the normal course of usual business not exceeding a period of one year. Likewise
current liabilities include all the obligations maturing within a year. Current ratio is
computed by:
Current Ratio = Current Assets
Current Liabilities
Where,
Current Assets = Cash in Hand + Bank Balance + Money at Call & Short Notice + Other
Assets
And, Current Liabilities = Bills Payable + Other Liabilities

2.2.2
Quick Ratio
Quick ratio expresses the relationship between quick assets and current liabilities. In
the quick ratio, the assets, which have the nature of immediate conversion into cash as per
the companys need, are used and are said to be the quick assets. Stock or inventories and
prepaid expenses (if any) are usually excluded from the list of current assets to determine
the quick assets. It is so because they take time to convert themselves into cash. Quick ratio
is computed by:
Quick Ratio = Quick Assets
Current Liabilities
Where,
Quick Assets = Current Assets Prepaid Expenses

Conclusions
From the presentation and analysis of the data relating to liquidity and profitability
of NIC, a clear picture emerges. The trend of general public to open saving account with
NIC has been increasing every year. The economy is going through recession these few year
and interest rates provided by all banks including NIC to its depositors are drastically
decreasing. Even then, the saving trends of NIC do not seem to be affected by this. It
indicates that the customers have faith that their deposits will be handled carefully by NIC.
The deposits are not completely governed by returns on it, in average, 50.774% of total
deposits are contributed by saving deposits. So, it clearly shows that saving deposits is one
of the major sources of fund for NIC.66.748% of liquidity and profitability are invested by
NIC in various sectors. Though it is nearly half of the saving deposits, it seems that NIC
could get it is known that more profit by investing some more from liquidity and
profitability funds because it is known that investment give returns.
The analysis of data in previous chapter shows that the relationship between net
profits and saving deposits are direct and positive. The profit from the investment of the
saving deposit contributes to total net profit as well. Therefore liquidity and profitability
indirectly NIC to achieve profit. Though there is a positive relation between deposits and
profit of the bank, the profit has not increased as compared to the deposits. Either NIC, is
not investing in profitable sectors or NIC is not providing loans and investments by fully
utilizing its funds. Therefore, NIC should try harder to utilize its deposits on best possible
way.
From the Data interpretation of the saving deposit facility of NIC, the conclusion can
be drawn that NIC, is doing a reasonably good job regarding it. NICs liquidity and
profitability trends are very good and the return regarding it, is also reasonable. The bank
likely to increase its profit by increasing the investments and loan facilities from funds of
saving deposits and by decreasing its cash and bank balance to minimum requirement. From
the deposit trends of NIC, it shows that the customers are loyal to bank. So, NIC is doing
good job regarding liquidity and profitability and it can go a long way if a few changes
mentioned below are applied.
