The company's current ratio showed a positive trend from 2019 to 2023, indicating a stronger liquidity position, but revealed potential weaknesses in 2022-2023 due to increased current liabilities. The return on equity increased significantly during the study period, attributed to effective equity measures and inventory management. The return on assets also improved, driven by increased revenue. However, in cross-company comparisons, the return on capital employed decreased from 2019 to 2023. The total asset turnover ratio improved from 2019 to 2022 but declined in 2023 due to excess loan variations. The fixed asset turnover ratio showed improvement, reflecting better revenue generation against asset balances. Overall, while the company demonstrated strong performance in several areas, recent trends indicate areas that require attention to maintain financial health.Introduction:Financial Management is the specific area of finance dealing with the financial decision corporations make and the tools and analysis used to make the decisions and techniques. Both share the same goal of enhancing firm value by ensuring that return on capital exceeds cost of capital without taking excessive financial risks.Capital investment decisions comprise the long-term choices about which projects receive investment, whether to finance that investment with equity or debt and when or whether to pay dividends to shareholders.
