Indian travel<br />

and tourism sector<br />

is the third<br />

largest foreign<br />

exchange<br />

earner<br />

EDITORIAL<br />

EDITORIAL<br />

People, since time immemorial, have always looked for opportunities to get out of their monotonous and mundane<br />

life for seeking leisure. In earlier days, when life was not very complex and relatively hassle free, people had<br />

some free time at their disposal to indulge in leisurely pursuits – be it dining outside or travelling to see places<br />

of interest. Today, with life style becoming increasingly complex, need is felt all the more to take a break from<br />

hectic schedule and fly to some exotic destination or go on a cruise on a pleasure voyage where the cruise/<br />

voyage itself and the amenities in the ship are a part of fabulous holidaying. <strong>This</strong> is what is called as ‘Hospitality’<br />

which, according to Oxford dictionary means “the reception and entertainment of guests, visitors or strangers<br />

with liberality and goodwill”. One must remember that hospitality is not merely confined to eating outside<br />

(restaurants/eating joints) or travelling (railway/airline/ship) or lodging (hotel) but it encompasses all such<br />

activities/fields as theme parks, clubs, resorts, casinos, all recreational markets, stadiums, amphitheatres etc.<br />

‘Hospitality’ is the corner stone of such activities which, in the western world, is associated with etiquette and<br />

entertainment.<br />

The hospitality industry is one of the most exciting and challenging industry with enormous growth potential.<br />

It is a multi billion industry worldwide and India is not lagging far too behind if foreign exchange earnings are<br />

an indicator as Indian travel and tourism sector is the third largest foreign exchange earner accounting for<br />

almost 6% of the GDP. It also makes a direct contribution to economy with significant linkages to agriculture,<br />

horticulture, handicrafts and construction. The hospitality industry went into a tail spin during 2007-08; thanks<br />

to the sub- prime crisis in US which left a scar on the economy of some of the most powerful nations though it<br />

had not impacted India to a major extent. The Indian tourism industry is now witnessing exponential growth<br />

and it has outperformed the global tourism industry in terms of growth in the volume of international tourists<br />

as well as in terms of revenue. The key driver for this growth in Indian tourism industry has been a fast<br />

growing economy for the last 2-3 years. Despite lagging in the basic infrastructure that supports the tourism<br />

industry; Indian tourism sector has been showing an impressive double digit growth. The government, of late,<br />

having fully realized the potential that this sector offers, has been investing in infrastructure such as transport<br />

and accommodation with a view to sustaining this growth.<br />

The hotel industry alone comprises a major chunk of the tourism industry. Historically viewed as an industry<br />

providing a luxury service valuable to the economy only as a foreign exchange earner, the industry today<br />

contributes directly to employment and indirectly facilitates tourism and commerce. Prior to the 1980’s, the<br />

Indian hotel industry was a slow growing industry displaying very sluggish growth rate consisting primarily of<br />

relatively static single hotel companies. However, the Asiad held in New Delhi in 1982, the world cup cricket<br />

(Reliance cup) held in India in 1987 and the subsequent partial liberalization of the Indian economy generated<br />

tourism interest in India with significant benefits accruing to the hotel and tourism sector in terms of improved<br />

demand patterns. With liberalization of the Indian economy in the early nineties, more foreign tourists started<br />

visiting India and this euphoria of the nineties continued unabated in the last decade which prompted new<br />

entrants and international chains to chalk out ambitious capacity additions, especially in the metropolitan cities.<br />

The government has allowed FDI up to 100% under the automatic route in townships, housing, built-up<br />

infrastructure and construction-development projects (which would include, but not be restricted to, housing,<br />

commercial premises, hotels, resorts, hospitals, educational institutions, recreational facilities, city and regional<br />

level infrastructure). However, most of these efforts were directed towards the business travellers and the<br />

foreign clientele. The urban Indian today, with high disposable income and frequent travel abroad for business<br />

or pleasure has been the order of the day. With the advent of IT/ITES/BPO/KPO’s, the traffic to India has<br />

increased by leaps and bounds which has given further impetus to the growth of tourism industry.<br />

CMA’s by virtue of their analytical skills and strong conceptual knowledge on subjects like Management<br />

Accounting, Operations Research etc can play a significant role in this sector not merely by application of<br />

traditional techniques of Cost Accounting like Zero Base Budgeting, Activity Based Costing, Cost Volume Profit<br />

analysis, Standard Costing, Inventory Management, Just In Time etc but also by application of OR techniques<br />

like Linear Programming, Queuing Theory, Simulation etc. They are the ones who evaluate operational efficiency<br />

and effectiveness of service management, identify accountability for variance analysis and help in strategic decision<br />

making. Typically, the CMA’s decision making in the hospitality sector can be:<br />

● The hotel swimming pool currently closes at 10.00 P.M. Would we sell more if the bar near the swimming pool<br />

remains open 24x7 ? They will also have to employ additional manpower to take care of the guests during the<br />

night time.<br />

● Would it be prudent to acquire land very near to the sea for building a resort or to take a bigger land at a place<br />

little away from the sea shore.<br />

● Will it pay to introduce an additional flight with no Business class to a certain destination or to reserve 20% of<br />

the seats for Business class and operate one single flight in a day?<br />

The above are some of the key issues which would require the expert opinion of CMA’s who can establish<br />

guidelines and benchmarks for long term profitability and viability of the organization. The present issue contains<br />

a number of interesting articles on this subject which I am sure, the readers will find useful and enriching.<br />

M. Gopalakrishnan, President<br />

PRESIDENT’S PRESIDENT’S COMMUNIQUÉ<br />

COMMUNIQUÉ<br />

We must become the change we want to see.<br />

—Mahatma Gandhi<br />

Dear Professional Colleagues,<br />

Progress of any nation depends on the way the country’s governance aligns with the<br />

social and economic environment, with the capability to support each other. The<br />

systems established by good practices of the past, reinforced by legislative support<br />

enables the three to function complementing each other. Deviations from the set norms<br />

are capable of affecting the nation’s fabric including the common public in a myriad<br />

ways. Professionals like us, help the Government to flag any deviation from the norms<br />

and extend help in retuning the system in areas where we have domain specialization.<br />

Making the country’s governance system robust is an issue, which has been a key<br />

area of concern for the Government in the recent past. <strong>This</strong> issue has been addressed<br />

in many areas like Corporate Law administration, through the introduction of egovernance.<br />

It is necessary for extending it to all the key areas, affecting the trade,<br />

commerce and public, so that the physical interface, frequent follow up visits, deliberate<br />

delays, file pile and unnecessary litigation are avoided. As a profession professing<br />

managing costs, we have been strongly advocating e-governance as a major means<br />

by which the Governments can showcase their strong will on this matter to the public.<br />

Shri Amit Mitra, the Finance Minister of West Bengal, has made a silent revolution in<br />

his landmark State Finance Bill, 2011, presented to the State Legislature of West Bengal,<br />

through various bold administrative measures, by going the IT way and avoiding the<br />

avenues for delays and the resulting consequences. It is a showcase model which can<br />

be emulated by various authorities, who have not yet started adopting it.<br />

We need to look at other areas requiring improvement also. On this aspect, we must<br />

focus on basic necessities like water, sanitation, power, education and health. In<br />

addition, the recent reports point out that economy may not grow at the expected<br />

rates of more than 8.5% p.a. <strong>This</strong> requires tightening of belt and judicious application<br />

of scarce national resources. On this aspect, I am sure the members of ICWAI will<br />

provide the leadership to control the monster of inflation and other issues plaguing<br />

the purportedly slowing national economy, with their focused approach towards<br />

resource consumption.<br />

We know that ICWAI community has always been on the forefront in providing their<br />

services to the nation with sincerity and dedication. I urge my professional colleagues<br />

to reinforce the confidence reposed in them by public and corporates at large about<br />

the reliability of their work and skills<br />

As a knowledge management institution, I complement all our faculties on the occasion<br />

of Teacher’s Day, for the dedication with which they have been serving the profession,<br />

in shaping the future cost and management accountants. The major increase in the<br />

intake to the course, showcases the value added role they play in building the future<br />

of the profession.<br />

Events and meetings during the month<br />

In the month of August, 2011 myself and Vice President concentrated on meeting<br />

various dignitaries who play a key role in domestic and international arena, in shaping<br />

not only the country’s economy but also laying down a new path for nations to follow.<br />

We met Shri. V. Krishnamurthy, Chairman, National Manufacturing Competitiveness<br />

Council (NMCC) and Dr. M Govind Rao, Member, Economic Advisory Council to<br />

Prime Minister and Director, NIPFP respectively at New Delhi on 3rd August, 2011 to<br />

discuss the various key issues relating to the profession. We also met Dr C. Rangarajan,<br />

Chairman Economic Advisory Council of the Prime Minister and appraised him of<br />

the services rendered by the Institute . We appraised him of the various professional<br />

activities of the Institute. He evinced keen interest on the Management Accounting<br />

Guidelines published by the Institute.<br />

Accounting Records and notifications which was attended<br />

by large number of delegates from the Industry and practice.<br />

The chapter also organized a meet with the CFO’s from<br />

large corporates which was well attended. It gave an<br />

opportunity to interact on professional issues and also to<br />

express our views on the benefits of the new rules vis-a-vis<br />

the old . We are planning to have many more such meets at<br />

different places and network with the top brass of the<br />

corporates which will provide us an opportunity to<br />

understand the challenges being faced by them and proper<br />

guidance where required from the Institute.<br />

On 23rd August, 2011 myself and Vice President, ICWAI<br />

shared ICWAI views on the status of progress on Investor<br />

Awareness Programmes in a joint meeting at Ministry of<br />

Corporate Affairs presided over by Secretary, MCA with<br />

other Partner Institutes. I request my fellow members and<br />

officials at Regional Councils, Chapters and ROCCs of<br />

ICWAI to organize maximum programmes at small centers<br />

throughout the country. <strong>This</strong> is also an opportunity to let<br />

the public know of the work by ICWAI for a common social<br />

cause.<br />

Hospitality Industry : An Insight<br />

Overview<br />

● The Indian hotel industry was estimated at USD<br />

17 billion at the end of 2010. Of the total revenue,<br />

nearly 70% is contributed by the unorganized sector<br />

and the remaining 30% comes from the organized<br />

sector. The hotel industry is estimated to grow at a<br />

CAGR of around 15% over the next five years.<br />

● The share of hotel and restaurant sector in the<br />

overall economy is still below 2%. For the last five<br />

years the total contribution of the hospitality sector<br />

has remained stagnant. Although the overall share<br />

increased from 1.46% in 2004-05 to 1.69% in 2007-08,<br />

after the phase of economic meltdown in US the total<br />

share again decreased to 1.45% in 2009-10.<br />

● According to Economic Survey of 2010-11 the<br />

average annual growth rate of hotel and restaurant<br />

sector has been 8.8% for the period 2005-06 to 2009–<br />

10. However, last two years have not been quite<br />

pleasant for the sector as growth faltered badly.<br />

● Till five years ago, the sector was registering a<br />

growth of around 15% but slowdown in the economy<br />

has affected the growth prospects of the sector badly<br />

and the growth rate has dropped to single digit level.<br />

● The sector registered negative growth (–3.41%)<br />

in 2008–09 over the year 2007–08, which was due to<br />

adverse global economic conditions in this year. But<br />

the sector is back in the positive growth territory and<br />

clocked a growth of 2.2% in 2009-10.<br />

Sector Status<br />

● Several studies have highlighted the demandsupply<br />

gap in hotel rooms in India. Majority have<br />

estimated a gap of 1,50,000 hotel rooms. A greater<br />

need is being felt in the mid-market and budget hotels<br />

segment in which a shortfall of around 1,00,000 rooms<br />

is estimated. Since the construction of hotels is capital<br />

intensive with a long gestation period, the government<br />

is making efforts to stimulate investments in this<br />

sector and speed up the approval process to attract<br />

private sector investments.<br />

● It is estimated that the room demand in the<br />

premium segment hotels in 10 major cities in India<br />

increased by around 5% since the past year. The room<br />

demand in India is expected to grow by approximately<br />

10% over the next five years.<br />

● According to the statistics by World Travel and<br />

Tourism Council, India ranks 18th in business travel<br />

and will be among the top 5 in this decade. With such<br />

growth, sources estimate, demand is going to exceed<br />

supply by at least 100% in coming years.<br />

the year 2009, average growth rate of 8% augurs well<br />

for the hotel industry.<br />

● Currently, the industry is adding about 60,000<br />

quality rooms which are in different stages of planning<br />

and development and should be ready by 2012.<br />

hotel sector is expected in the next few years, whereby<br />

the industry is expected to grow to USD 36 billion by<br />

Operating performance<br />

● The hotel industry in India is recovering from<br />

the blows it suffered in 2008, first due to financial<br />

meltdown in America in September and later due to<br />

terrorist attack on the two 5-Star hotels—Taj and<br />

Oberoi in Mumbai.<br />

● The onset of the global economic slowdown had<br />

a greater impact on the profitability of the sector<br />

determined by the occupancy rate. The occupancy rate<br />

came down from 69% in 2007-08 to 60% in 2008-09. It<br />

was hovering above 71% before the incidents. Average<br />

room rates (ARRs) saw a marginal decline of about<br />

2% during that time. As the occupancy rates were<br />

badly hit, overall revenue per room (RevPAR) fell by<br />

14% in 2008-09.<br />

● The swine flu outbreak in 2009 further eroded<br />

the profitability. ARRs fell 25% and ORs plunged to<br />

53% in the first half of 2009-10. By then, hotels were<br />

doling out generous discounts in a bid to fill up their<br />

rooms even as RevPARs declined by 30-40%.<br />

Hotels — classification<br />

Presently there are 1,593 classified hotels with a<br />

capacity of 95,087 rooms in the country. The hotel<br />

sector comprises various forms of accommodation —<br />

star category hotels, heritage category hotels,<br />

timeshare resorts, apartment hotels, guest houses, and<br />

bed and breakfast establishments. Based on this the<br />

hotels in India are classified into the following<br />

segments :<br />

I. Star rated hotels (5 Star and Star Deluxe)<br />

● Mainly situated in the business districts of metro<br />

cities and cater to business travelers and foreign<br />

tourists.<br />

● Considered to be very expensive and account<br />

for about 30% of the industry.<br />

● Star hotels are further classified into six categories :<br />

Five Star Deluxe, Five Star, Four Star, Three Star,<br />

Two Star & One Star<br />

(a) Five Star Deluxe & Five Star : These are restricted<br />

to the four metros and some major cities like<br />

Bangalore and Hyderabad. The customers of these<br />

hotels are mostly foreign business and leisure<br />

travelers, senior business executives and top<br />

government officials.<br />

(b) Three Star & Four Star : These are located in all<br />

major cities as well as tourist destinations. Their<br />

customer group ranges from mid-level business<br />

executives to leisure travelers.<br />

(c) One Star & Two Star : These are located in<br />

major cities as well as in small cities and other tourist<br />

destinations. Their customers usually include the<br />

domestic tourists.<br />

● Major players in this segment are Taj, Welcome<br />

Group, EIH and Oberoi. Apart from Indian players<br />

some of the international hotels also have their<br />

734 The Management Accountant |September 2011


presence in this segment. These include, Best Western,<br />

Choice hotels, Bass Hotels, Park Plaza and Carlson<br />

Hospitality.<br />

● Room supply in the 5-Star segment has grown at<br />

5% CAGR over the past decade while the 3 and 4 Star<br />

categories have grown at 6% and 8% CAGR,<br />

respectively, during the same period.<br />

II. Heritage hotels<br />

● Characterized by less capital expenditure and<br />

greater affordability and include running hotels in<br />

palaces, castles, forts, hunting lodges, etc.<br />

● Further classified as Heritage Classic (hotels built<br />

between 1920 and 1935), Heritage Grand (hotels built<br />

prior to 1920) and Heritage (hotels built between 1935<br />

and 1950).<br />

III. Budget hotels<br />

● Cater mainly to domestic travelers who favor<br />

reasonably priced accommodations with limited<br />

luxury.<br />

● Characterized by special seasonal offers and good<br />

services.<br />

IV. Unclassified hotels<br />

● Low-priced motels spread throughout the<br />

country.<br />

● A low-pricing policy is their only selling point.<br />

● <strong>This</strong> segment accounts for about 19% of the<br />

industry.<br />

V. Resorts and Clubs<br />

● Located at the outskirts of city—could be from<br />

premium to budget category.<br />

VI. Restaurants<br />

● Food chains and outlets set up in India. They are<br />

usually by international chains like Dominos,<br />

Espresso, Pizza Hut and McDonalds.<br />

Latest trends<br />

Investment in smaller cities<br />

● Rising business and leisure travel to smaller cities<br />

such as Udaipur, Thiruvananthapuram, Bhubaneswar,<br />

Pune, Kochi and Chandigarh have increased<br />

demand for quality hotel rooms in these cities.<br />

Hospitality chains are expected to increase their<br />

presence in smaller cities to leverage this opportunity.<br />

There are plans for a suitable project mix (more<br />

budget/business hotels compared to luxury hotels)<br />

for these cities. For instance, Carlson has announced<br />

its plans to set-up mid-segment hotels in Tier II and<br />

Tier III cities.<br />

Diversification into new segments<br />

● Many hospitality chains that were earlier focused<br />

only on the luxury segment are now diversifying into<br />

new product segments, such as budget hotels and<br />

serviced apartments, in order to reduce risks.<br />

● IHCL has already launched budget hotels in<br />

India, while Accor has announced plans to introduce<br />

its budget hotel brand, Formule1, in the country.<br />

● Hotel chains are diversifying into niche segments<br />

such as medicities, wildlife lodges and spas to<br />

establish additional revenue generation streams.<br />

These segments also help hotel chains retain<br />

customers and provide them with value added<br />

services. For instance, IHCL operates wildlife lodges<br />

under the brand Taj Safari, a JV between IHCL and<br />

Beyond, an Africa-based safari and ecotourism<br />

company. ITC-Welcomgroup and IHCL operates spas<br />

at some of their luxury properties.<br />

Regulations & Taxation<br />

● In the Hotel Industry Sector, Foreign Direct<br />

Investment (FDI) has been permitted up to 100%<br />

under the automatic route. For foreign technology<br />

agreements, automatic approval is granted if :<br />

1. Up to 3% of the capital cost of the project is<br />

proposed to be paid for technical consultancy<br />

services.<br />

2. Up to 3% of the net turnover is payable for<br />

franchising and marketing/publicity fees.<br />

3. Up to 10% of gross operating profit is payable<br />

for management fees including incentives fees.<br />

hospitality sector in India, which will serve as<br />

opportunities for growth :<br />

Hospitality Industry : Risks & Risk Management<br />

Strategies—Role of CMAs<br />

● Hospitality industry, which depends entirely on<br />

the services it offers, should be able to identify and<br />

manage its risks effectively.<br />

● There are many functions in the hotel industry<br />

which involve use of chemicals and hazardous<br />

materials (dry cleaning, LPG and HSD storage, plating<br />

and polishing). Food contamination and environmental<br />

releases are some of the other hazards<br />

associated with hotel operations.<br />

● While control of physical risks is important,<br />

liability with respect to services provided should not<br />

be overlooked. Considering that a large number of<br />

guests are from overseas, there is an urgent need to<br />

look at liability from all angles and adequate control<br />

measures need to be taken.<br />

● A risk spectrum highlighting key risks associated<br />

with hotel operations is depicted in the following<br />

figure :<br />

Source : Cholamandalam MS Risk Services, Risk<br />

Assessment—Hotel Industry, The CMSRSL Approach<br />

● Lack of understanding, coupled with inadequate<br />

basic management controls over key business risks<br />

has been the root cause of many failures that have<br />

been witnessed in the past in hotel operations. Thus,<br />

effective risk management is critical to the hospitality<br />

industry.<br />

● Risk assessments, increasingly used by international<br />

as well as large industrial operations, involves<br />

timely identification of significant risk and its<br />

evaluation to determine the type and level of control<br />

that should be established to result in an acceptable<br />

level of risk to the business.<br />

● Hazards should be identified. <strong>This</strong> identification<br />

process yields a large number of risk events. In order<br />

to prioritize the action in dealing with significant risks,<br />

a consistent method is required to evaluate each one.<br />

● The consequence, likelihood and exposure of<br />

each hazard are arrived at using a systematic<br />

approach. <strong>This</strong> will help to determine the relative<br />

importance of hazard and focus on significant risks.<br />

736 The Management Accountant |September 2011


COVER COVER ARTICLE<br />

ARTICLE<br />

For combining consequence, likelihood and exposure<br />

of hazard, CMAs help companies by designing risk<br />

calculators.<br />

● The risk calculator allows comparison of several<br />

types of risks on the same scale including individual,<br />

societal, economic, health, and environmental risks.<br />

● CMAs help organizations in developing a privacy<br />

strategy which should be at the top of every chief<br />

executive’s risk agenda. The four major benefits from<br />

this privacy strategy are :<br />

— One way for a company to separate itself from<br />

competition<br />

— Can mitigate risk, be it brand, reputation,<br />

customer trust, litigation, or compliance<br />

— Help ensure that the privacy processes and<br />

practices are cost-effective<br />

— Desirable, if for no other reason than to protect<br />

a company’s own intellectual capital and<br />

customer lists.<br />

● A successful, well-executed strategy can bring<br />

about increased customer comfort and, ultimately,<br />

higher revenue.<br />

● Successful organizations take calculated risks to<br />

achieve their objectives. They weigh opportunities<br />

against threats and act decisively. In other words, risk<br />

management can become a strategic competitive<br />

advantage to help hospitality organizations shift their<br />

focus from crisis response and compliance to<br />

evaluating risks in business strategies proactively.<br />

● CMAs recommend some of the following critical<br />

success factors in a hospitality organization’s risk<br />

management program :<br />

— Need to create a risk-aware culture throughout<br />

the organization<br />

— Establish risk management objectives that are<br />

measurable and establish accountability<br />

— Establish an infrastructure for risk management<br />

— Empower business areas/departments to be<br />

responsible for managing risk in accordance<br />

with the organization’s risk management<br />

approach—reward risk optimization initiatives<br />

— Communicate commitment to risk optimization<br />

by the board and its committees<br />

— Communicate and train management and staff<br />

in risk identification and avoidance techniques<br />

— Continually identify and fill gaps in the risk<br />

management process.<br />

● Hotel guests demand high quality goods and<br />

services at competitive prices. While investors expect<br />

outstanding performance and growth from their<br />

stocks this puts heavy pressure on hotel owners,<br />

boards, and management, who can no longer rely on<br />

old, established strategies and practices. They need<br />

to do a better job of taking and managing risks both<br />

at the property level and at the enterprise level. Risk<br />

management is so important that CMAs suggest to<br />

invest in a structured technology-enabled approach<br />

to risk optimization.<br />

● CMAs believe that risks can only be managed<br />

and optimized if they are identified. Today’s business<br />

environment demands it.<br />

Need for ‘Business Interruption Insurance’<br />

● The hospitality industry is more vulnerable to<br />

economic fluctuations when compared to other<br />

industries as there are various risks involved in<br />

running a hospitality business. However, as with any<br />

other industry, the risk of losses from unforeseen<br />

events such as hurricanes, earthquakes, flooding, fire,<br />

etc., clearly remains.<br />

● It is thus very important for hospitality<br />

operations to take reasonable steps to protect their<br />

property, employees and financial circumstances.<br />

Many businesses in this industry are aware of such<br />

widespread losses and would never consider opening<br />

a business without buying property and liability<br />

insurance policies. But many of them, particularly<br />

small businesses, fail to think about how they would<br />

manage if any interruption occurs to their business<br />

for many days.<br />

● Suppose an unforeseen event such as fire or flood<br />

makes the business place temporarily unusable,<br />

relocates the business or shuts it down for a while. A<br />

regular commercial property insurance policy covers<br />

only the physical damage to one’s business. What<br />

about the profits which could have been earned<br />

during this period? How would one pay rent,<br />

employees’ salaries and other important payments<br />

while one’s business is being rebuilt? <strong>This</strong> would<br />

definitely result in substantial financial loss.<br />

● Many businesses without the ‘Business Income<br />

Coverage’ shut down their business operations after<br />

their business is completely shuttered due to some<br />

unforeseen event. ‘Business Income Coverage’ covers<br />

the loss of income and helps a business return to the<br />

financial position as it was in prior to the disaster.<br />

● CMAs suggest that a business in the hospitality<br />

industry should understand the importance of<br />

‘Business Interruption Insurance’ and should go for<br />

this insurance.<br />

ARTICLE<br />

● Business owners from hospitality industry<br />

should be aware of some of the critical aspects of<br />

‘Business Interruption Insurance’. Given below are<br />

some critical aspects of hotel ‘Business Interruption’<br />

coverage and its usefulness for businesses in the<br />

hospitality sector :<br />

Business interruption period : The business<br />

interruption period is the length of period for which<br />

benefits are payable under an insurance policy. <strong>This</strong><br />

period is the most critical part of quantifying the<br />

business interruption loss. It covers a business from<br />

loss of income for a specified period till the damaged<br />

business property is repaired or reopened. Some<br />

hotels—being aware of the losses that may persist even<br />

after repairs are done—opt for “extended period of<br />

indemnity”. As, it may take some time for the hotel<br />

to regain bookings and rebuild market share.<br />

Loss of room revenues : The business in the<br />

hospitality or the lodging industry may suffer financial<br />

performance as two of its main functions—occupancy<br />

percentage and average daily rate (ADR)—may get<br />

affected. In simpler terms, a hotel damaged by a<br />

hurricane or fire or stuck in a deep local recession<br />

will not be able to generate any revenue because of<br />

closed rooms, especially in case of hotels and lodges.<br />

‘Business Interruption Insurance’ compensates for lost<br />

income due to loss of rooms. It covers the profits one<br />

would have earned, based on one’s financial records.<br />

Other lost revenues : Revenues from food and<br />

beverage, conferences, golf, spa, etc. can constitute a<br />

significant portion of a hotel’s income. When a<br />

business is interrupted, not only revenues through<br />

rooms are affected, some or all of these sources<br />

of income are typically interrupted. ‘Business<br />

Interruption Insurance’ covers all the profits that<br />

would have been earned.<br />

Ordinary payroll : Even if the business activities<br />

are temporarily stalled, operating expenses, and other<br />

costs such as rent, electricity bill, taxes, interest<br />

payable on bank loans, payroll costs etc., cannot be<br />

ignored. The business still needs to retain some<br />

employees such as accountants, front office executives<br />

etc. The business owner needs to pay salaries to them.<br />

In this kind of situation ‘Business Interruption<br />

Insurance’ is very helpful as ordinary payroll coverage<br />

is a common endorsement in many policies.<br />

Extra expenses : Business interruption policies<br />

generally allow an insured hotel to claim extra<br />

expenses incurred during the period of indemnity. It<br />

reimburses for reasonable expenses that allow the<br />

business to continue operation while the property is<br />

being rebuilt. Some policies also cover the extra costs<br />

required for moving the business to a different<br />

(temporary) location.<br />

Conclusion<br />

● Hospitality industry is one of the major service<br />

sectors and employers across many economies in the<br />

world.<br />

● India—known globally as the land of hospitality—is<br />

today in the defining stages of the business<br />

of hospitality. The Indian Hospitality Industry is one<br />

of the fastest growing sectors of the Indian economy.<br />

that India has witnessed in recent years, the sector<br />

has emerged as one of the key sectors driving the<br />

country’s economy.<br />

● There are, however, many risks involved in<br />

running hospitality business and CMAs advice<br />

business owners to be aware of these in order to assess<br />

their insurance needs. CMAs suggest organizations<br />

to invest in a structured technology enabled approach<br />

to risk optimization.<br />

● A well-thought out risk strategy by hotel owners<br />

or operators can make a significant difference at the<br />

most crucial times.<br />

● ‘Business Interruption Insurance’ is one of the<br />

most important insurance policy that helps in<br />

minimizing the adverse consequences of some<br />

unwanted events for businesses in the hospitality<br />

industry. Business owners from the hospitality<br />

industry should be aware of some of the critical<br />

aspects of ‘Business Interruption Insurance’ for<br />

putting them in practice.<br />

Hospitality Industry, Hospitality Management<br />

and Role of CMA to develop them<br />

Hospitality is the act of entertaining, providing<br />

comfortable facilities to guests, visitors,<br />

customers or any other associated person at<br />

hotels, motels, resorts, clubs, restaurants, tourist<br />

places, business places, airports, railway station, bus<br />

terminus, shopping malls, amusement parks, theatre<br />

halls etc.<br />

Hospitality is now considered to be a first growing<br />

industry. Hospitality management has to ensure better<br />

services in the following areas.<br />

● Accommodations<br />

● Food and beverage<br />

● Organising events<br />

● Organising games and sports<br />

● Organising cultural functions<br />

● Tourism services<br />

● Information required by visitors.<br />

● Hospitality industry has the manyfold potential<br />

to contribute to the economy by —<br />

● Contribution to GDP<br />

● Employment generation<br />

● Foreign exchange earning<br />

● Earning of tax revenues<br />

forecasts that the international tourism will grow at<br />

the average annual rate of 4% [ Source - Long term<br />

Many countries have attempted to build their<br />

international tourism industry because of its potential<br />

to contribute to the national economy through foreign<br />

exchange earnings. A strong association between<br />

international tourism development and economic<br />

performance is hence generally assumed and has been<br />

found in Taiwan. Research studies reported that the<br />

tourism industry was one of major contributors to<br />

Taiwan’s economic growth. Chen et al. (2009), Kim et<br />

al. (2006) and Jang and Chen (2008) revealed that the<br />

tourism sector has contributed more than the<br />

agriculture sector to the gross domestic product<br />

(GDP) in Taiwan. According to the World Travel and<br />

Tourism Council (2009), the aggregate tourism<br />

earnings accounted for 3.46% and 3.34% of Taiwan’s<br />

GDP in 2007 and 2008, respectively. The World<br />

Economic Forum (2009) indicated that Taiwan’s<br />

foreign exchange earning from tourism was US$5.1<br />

Ashoke Kumar Bothra*<br />

billion in 2007 and represented 1.34% of the GDP,<br />

which is higher than the corresponding figures in the<br />

US, Canada, Germany, Japan, South Korea and<br />

China.Kirn et al. (2006) and Chen and Chiou-Wei<br />

(2009) further showed that international tourism<br />

development in Taiwan could promote economic<br />

growth. [Source- International Journal of Hospitality<br />

Management 30(2011) ]<br />

The growth and development of Hospitality<br />

industry vis-a-vis tourism is intensely dependent on<br />

the advancement and the guiding principles of<br />

Hospitality management. Tourism industry in<br />

repercussion helps to grow —<br />

● Hotel industry<br />

● Air, water and land transports<br />

● Tourism services<br />

● Tourist places<br />

● The domestic and foreign markets of local arts<br />

and crafts<br />

The challenges lying in the growth of tourism is<br />

concerned with huge capital deployment and overall<br />

development of infrastructure, which needs a long<br />

term goal. The economic challenges become<br />

commercially viable and acceptable when the same<br />

is globally competitive by introducing a wide range<br />

of measures to improve operational efficiency. CMAs<br />

have a very big role here. They are capable to apply a<br />

number of Cost and management techniques such as,<br />

● Just-In-Time<br />

● Inventory Management<br />

● Budgeting<br />

● Cost-Volume-Profit Analysis<br />

● Linear Programming<br />

● Queuing theory<br />

● Risk Management<br />

● Activity Based Costing<br />

Just-in-time — <strong>This</strong> concept is useful in hospitality<br />

industry at the time of organising big events, like a<br />

conference, a meet on festival, a concert, sports and<br />

games etc. If the different activities are well planned in<br />

advance and the requirements of different inputs are<br />

arrangec in systematic way one can minimise the<br />

carrying cost and wastage and thereby saving ir input<br />

cost.<br />

Inventory management — Analysing different<br />

goods according to their requirement and value and<br />

application of perpetual inventory control can help<br />

in reducing the carrying cost and wastage of<br />

inventory. As the hospitality industry is seasonal in a<br />

number of cases, so studying the flow of demand and<br />

lean consumption of goods, helps to control unwanted<br />

cost. Improvement in the quality of output, can be<br />

done by inspection, testing, reviewing the process<br />

from time to time.<br />

Budgeting — <strong>This</strong> is a very common and easy tool<br />

to improve efficiency and helps in pricing decision.<br />

In case of hospitality industry event management<br />

budget with reasonable accuracy can be a pricing tool<br />

in future.<br />

Cost-Volume Profit Analysis — Also known as<br />

Break Even Analysis to find capacity at which the<br />

enterprise has neither profit nor loss. CVP analysis<br />

helps the management to take decision in different<br />

situation whether it is a loss making or a growing<br />

enterprise. During the period of global recession,<br />

which is still supposed to be continuing, almost all<br />

the airline companies are unable to meet their cost.<br />

CVP is useful tool in pricing, capacity expansion and<br />

survival decision.<br />

Linear Programming — Pricing is market-driven,<br />

not cost based in hotel industry. When a hotel chain<br />

is to set its prices, it starts with comprehensive market<br />

research. Based on the data, the correct price for each<br />

marketplace and each category of room is determined<br />

with the help of linear programming. If there is a major<br />

shift in a market, then the prices will adjust for that.<br />

However, if there is a major shift in a demand curve,<br />

then a shift of price may have no effect. It may actually<br />

leave more money on the table. For example, if an<br />

airline goes on strike, a significant shift in the demand<br />

curve would result. Under such conditions, increasing<br />

the rate would have beneficial result. If there is an<br />

opportunity to go after a new targeted market with a<br />

specific offer, enabling the chain to capture a greater<br />

market share, then lowering the rate serves its<br />

purpose. Generally, however, lowering rates across<br />

the board is not a preferred pricing strategy.<br />

Queuing theory — In restaurants and bars in the<br />

situation of queuing may cause to dissatisfaction of<br />

customers resulting business loss. To handle queuing<br />

problem, data on footfall of the number of customers<br />

and their wants with time are collected and studied.<br />

Data may be collected on different parameters like<br />

customers with family, officials, tourist and verities<br />

in their choice. Seasonal change in the pattern of<br />

customers visit, seasonal impact on variation in<br />

number of customers, can be analysed with the help<br />

of statistical tools.<br />

Risk management — One of the root causes why<br />

the hospitality industry is so less developed is that<br />

the huge risks associated with it. The risk may be —<br />

● Change in government policy<br />

● Change in foreign policy<br />

● Attack or threat of terrorism<br />

● Strike by Airlines<br />

● Spread of epidemic<br />

● Economic recession<br />

● Fire and natural calamities<br />

Most of risk factors are external and therefore<br />

impossible to contain with or managed by human<br />

effort. However we can minimise and avoid risk by<br />

systematic planning and decision making. Risk<br />

management is based on following principle —<br />

● Acceptance of risk if the benefit is more than<br />

risk cost<br />

● Avoid unnecessary risk<br />

● Take risk decision at the right level and right<br />

time<br />

● Manage the risk by planning.<br />

Trade off between risk and return - Risk and return<br />

are positively correlated .Higher the risk, higher is<br />

the return. Risk/return trade off is the balancing act<br />

between risk and return. The important point here is<br />

that to ascertain the cost of accepted risk level; and if<br />

the return is higher than the cost of accepted risk level<br />

the same is beneficial. At the time of recession tourist<br />

service provider allows high discount to the customer<br />

in anticipation of higher demand. So there is a cost of<br />

allowing discount in one hand and some extra revenue<br />

generated on the other. If the revenue generated is<br />

more, it is beneficial to the service provider. Another<br />

long term benefit derived by the service provider is<br />

the growth in market share which may be a strategic<br />

advantage in the long run.<br />

Activity Based Costing — Implementation of ABC<br />

methodology is not easy but it is a very effective<br />

managerial tool. Tourism industry is in fact a<br />

combination of a number of activities those can be<br />

identified, such as —<br />

● Air transport<br />

● Land Transport<br />

● Water Transport<br />

● Pick up facility to the tourist<br />

● Lodging facility<br />

● Food and Beverages<br />

● Camping<br />

● Supporting transport<br />

● Travel agency function<br />

● Managing costs<br />

● Providing behavioural incentives by creating<br />

cost consciousness among employees<br />

● Responding to an increase in overheads<br />

● Responding to increased pressure from<br />

regulating agencies.<br />

Finally, one must say that when the national<br />

economy is under the grip of inflation and the global<br />

economy, specifically the US and European economy<br />

are still struggling with recession and put a question<br />

mark on growth, hospitality industry with better<br />

measures of hospitality management can bring the<br />

global economic activities in the path of growth. ❐<br />

Role of CMAs towards Hospitality Management<br />

in Hospitality Industry<br />

Swapan Kumar Roy*<br />

Indian tourism and hospitality sector has reached<br />

new heights today. Hospitality industry is closely<br />

linked with travel and tourism industries. The<br />

boom in the tourism industry has resulted in the<br />

immense growth of hotel industry in India. It is<br />

attracting tourists from across the world. Domestic<br />

tourists also get attracted. All these act as a vehicle<br />

for establishing a relation with other countries.<br />

Cultural development takes place. The country’s<br />

economy is developed. The industry employs millions<br />

of people. In recent years, the Government of India<br />

has been putting emphasis to boost the hotel industry<br />

in India. It widens the business opportunity and<br />

increases the foreign and domestic tourism.<br />

Objectives of the Study<br />

The objectives of the study are :<br />

1. To discuss about the conceptual aspects of the<br />

terms ‘Hospitality’, ‘Hospitality Industry’, and<br />

‘Hospitality Management’;<br />

2. To discuss the objectives of hospitality<br />

management in the context of hospitality<br />

industry;<br />

3. To throw light on the contribution of the<br />

hospitality industry for the development of a<br />

nation like India;<br />

4. To ascertain the role of CMAs towards<br />

hospitality management in hospitality industry.<br />

Methodology<br />

The discussion is entirely based on secondary data.<br />

Different books, journals, websites related to the topic<br />

have been consulted. The collected information/data<br />

have been used in tune with the topic “Role of CMAs<br />

towards Hospitality Management in Hospitality<br />

Industry”.<br />

Hospitality : Meaning<br />

Hospitality means “Cordial reception”. It also<br />

means “ kindness in welcoming guests or strangers”.<br />

Hospitality is the relationship between guest and host<br />

or a pleasant liaison between the guest and the host<br />

or the act or practice of being hospitable. The term<br />

encompasses the reception and entertainment of<br />

guests, visitors or strangers, resorts, membership<br />

clubs, conventions, special events and other services<br />

for travelers and tourists. The Sanskrit adage “Atithi<br />

Devo Bhava” (or guest is god) is the mantra of<br />

hospitality in India.<br />

About Hospitality Industry<br />

<strong>This</strong> industry consists of broad category of fields<br />

within the service industry that includes lodging,<br />

restaurants, event planning, theme parks, transportation,<br />

cruise line and additional fields within the<br />

tourism industry. It is a several billion-dollar industry<br />

that mostly depends on the availability of leisure time<br />

and disposable income. A hospitality unit consists of<br />

multiple groups such as facility maintenance, direct<br />

operations, management, marketing and human<br />

resources.<br />

Defining Hospitality Management<br />

Hospitality management is the academic study of<br />

the running of hotels, restaurants and travel and<br />

tourism-related business. It may be defined as “a<br />

range of occupations and professional practices<br />

associated with the administration of hotels, resorts<br />

and other lodging”. “A broad field in the hospitality<br />

industry that includes the organization of restaurants,<br />

lodging facilities and entertainment venues” is also<br />

called hospitality management. In other words,<br />

“Hospitality management is the study and practice<br />

of effectively running a business relating to tourism”.<br />

In essence, hospitality management is an essential tool<br />

that helps to enrich the knowledge, skill and other<br />

allied matters of the job seekers in hotel industry for<br />

effectively running a business related to tourism.<br />

Hospitality Management : Objectives<br />

Hospitality management aims at providing an<br />

educational foundation for a range of administrative<br />

and management careers in the hospitality industry. It<br />

develops the ability to think logically—how the time,<br />

energy and materials are optimally utilized. It provides<br />

skills to manage in a computerized environment and<br />

a rapidly changing IT environment and its effects in the<br />

hospitality environment. Hospitality management also<br />

helps to acquire skill for future management roles of<br />

various types of hospitality units. Skills and personal<br />

qualities of general importance and applicability in all<br />

aspects of working life are developed through the study<br />

of such type of management.<br />

Hospitality Industry : Its contribution to the<br />

nation<br />

As stated earlier, hospitality industry is closely<br />

linked with tourism industry. The tourism industry<br />

is booming with the rapid industrial growth and<br />

promotion of tourism. The growth and development<br />

of tourism industry results in the expansion of<br />

hospitality industry. Hospitality and tourism industry<br />

play a vital role in the overall economic growth of the<br />

country. It provides huge employment opportu-nities.<br />

It has become possible through its linkage with other<br />

sectors of the economy.<br />

According to the Department of Industrial Policy<br />

and Promotion, the hotel and tourism industry’s<br />

contribution to the Indian economy by way of foreign<br />

direct investments (FDI) inflows were pegged at<br />

US$2.35 billion from April 2000 to February 2011. The<br />

domestic hospitality sector is expected to see<br />

investments of over US$11 billion by 2012, with 40<br />

international brands making their presence in the<br />

country in the next few years. In Indian context, the<br />

hospitality industry contributed only 2% of GDP in<br />

2003-04. It is projected to grow at a rate of 8.8% by 2016,<br />

which would place India as the second-fastest growing<br />

tourism market in the world. The travel and tourism<br />

sector is the second highest foreign exchange earner for<br />

India. <strong>This</strong> sector has created 11 million jobs and has<br />

the potential to create another 37 million jobs (estimated<br />

by the NSSO, Ministry of Tourism) of 120 million<br />

projected requirements by 2020. India is visited by a<br />

huge number of tourists from all over the world.<br />

Arrivals from regions/country have been shown in<br />

The above table exhibits the fluctuating trend of<br />

domestic tourists.<br />

Most of the foreign tourists prefer to stay in such<br />

hotels where standards of facilities and services are<br />

available. The Ministry of Tourism has formulated a<br />

voluntary scheme for classification of operational<br />

hotels. They are : (a) Star Category Hotels (i.e. 5 Star<br />

Deluxe, 5 Star, 4 Star, 2 Star and 1 Star) and (b)<br />

Heritage Category Hotels (i.e. Heritage Grand,<br />

Heritage Classic and Heritage Basic).<br />

Most of the 5 Star hotels in India generally belong<br />

to the reputed Indian hotel groups like the Oberoi<br />

Group, the ITC group, Taj Group, the Welcome Group<br />

and many others. All these groups have a chain of<br />

hotels spread across the different cities in India like<br />

Mumbai, Kolkata, Bangalore, New Delhi, Agra,<br />

Varanasi, Hyderabad, and Lucknow etc.<br />

All these hotels require trained staff for the<br />

departments of food and beverage, housekeeping,<br />

accounting, marketing, recreation, computer<br />

applications, financial management, engineering,<br />

maintenance, security, fire fighting and public<br />

relations. So many people having knowledge, skill and<br />

competency get employment opportunity in<br />

hospitality industry and earn lucrative pay package.<br />

The people having knowledge of administration and<br />

coordination may perform their duties in a proper<br />

way, which may help to grow and develop the<br />

industry.<br />

Government’s initiatives<br />

The Government of India announced in 2002 a<br />

New Tourism Policy to give boost to the tourism<br />

sector. The policy is built around the 7-S Mantra of<br />

Swaagat (welcome), Soochanaa (infor-mation),<br />

Suvidhaa (facilitation), Surakshaa (security), Sahyog<br />

(cooperation), Sanrachnaa (infrastructure) and Safaai<br />

(cleanliness).<br />

In order to stimulate the domestic and<br />

international investments in this sector, the<br />

government has permitted 100% FDI in the automatic<br />

route—allowing full FDI into all construction<br />

development projects including construction of hotels<br />

and resorts, infrastructure etc. A five-year tax holiday<br />

has been given to the organizations that set up hotels,<br />

resorts, and convention centers. The Government of<br />

India has been taking initiative to promote and<br />

develop Hospitality and Tourist—both in terms of<br />

physical infrastructure and services—by paying<br />

attention on uplifting physical products as well as<br />

manpower.<br />

Role of CMAs<br />

The success of each and every organization<br />

depends upon a skilled, dedicated and committed<br />

workforce. It also depends on the quality of<br />

information made available to the management. So<br />

the hospitality industry needs some staff having<br />

analytical and judgment skills. The CMAs possess<br />

such qualities. They can assess different kinds of<br />

situations and suggest the right kind of cost<br />

prescriptions. The CMAs have the capability of acting<br />

as Managing Director, Finance Director, Financial<br />

Controller, Chief Accountant, Cost controller,<br />

Marketing Manager, and Chief Internal Auditor.<br />

The professional expertise of the CMAs aids in<br />

stabilizing budget and standards, evaluating<br />

operating efficiency and effectiveness of service<br />

management, formulating the profit planning<br />

program, guiding the managerial decisions and<br />

identifying accountability for cost and profit variance.<br />

They act as tax consultants as well as advisors in<br />

company matters also. So the contribution of the<br />

CMAs in order to attain the business objectives cannot<br />

be gainsaid. ❐<br />

Multidimensional Role of CMAs in Effective<br />

Hospitality Management<br />

Most of the people think of the hospitality<br />

industry, they usually think of hotels and<br />

restaurants. However, the true meaning of<br />

hospitality is much broader in scope. According to<br />

the Oxford English Dictionary, hospitality means “the<br />

reception and entertainment of guests, visitors or<br />

strangers with liberality and goodwill.” The word<br />

hospitality is derived from hospice, the term for a<br />

medieval house of rest for travelers and pilgrims.<br />

Hospice - a word that is clearly related to hospital -<br />

also referred to an early form of what we now call a<br />

nursing home. Hospitality, then, not only includes<br />

hotels and restaurants but also refers to other kinds<br />

of institutions that offer shelter, food, or both to people<br />

away from their homes. We can also expand this<br />

definition, as many people have, to include those<br />

institutions that provide other types of services to<br />

people away from home. <strong>This</strong> might include private<br />

clubs, casinos, resorts, attractions, and so on.<br />

In India the tourism and hospitality industries are<br />

witnessing a period of exponential growth. The world<br />

leading travel and tourism journal “Condre Nast<br />

traveler” ranked India as the top travel destination in<br />

the world for 2007as against fourth position in2006,<br />

for which hospitality industry having a lion share. The<br />

year 2010 also marked the eighth consecutive year<br />

during which India has witnessed double digit growth<br />

in foreign tourist arrival. Along with the rise in the<br />

foreign tourist arrival foreign exchange earnings have<br />

witnessed an unbeatable growth in recent years.<br />

Tourism now becomes a significant industry in India,<br />

contributing around5.9 percent of the gross Domestic<br />

Product (GDP) and providing employment about<br />

41.8 million people. As per the World Travel and<br />

Tourism Council the tourism industry in India is<br />

likely to generate US$121.4billion by 2015 and<br />

Hospitality sector has the potential to earn US$ 24<br />

billion in foreign exchange by 2015. Additionally India<br />

is also likely to become a major hub for medical<br />

tourism with revenue from the industry estimated to<br />

grow US$ 2.2 billion by 2012 according to<br />

Confederation of India Industry.<br />

It is very relevant to mention here that according<br />

to a report by Mafoi Management Consultants, the<br />

number of required hotel rooms is around 240,000,<br />

Sachindra G R*<br />

the current availability is just 90,000 rooms - leaving<br />

a shortfall of 150,000 rooms to be provided. India’s<br />

hospitality sector is expected to see an estimated US$<br />

11.41 billion in the next two years, and around 40<br />

international hotel brands by 2011. Moreover, the<br />

sector is expected to provide over 400,000 jobs.<br />

It is estimated that the hospitality sector is likely<br />

to see a further US$11.41 billion investment over the<br />

next two years. It is estimated that India will be the<br />

4th fastest growing nation in the Travel and Tourism<br />

sector over the next ten years. The number of medical<br />

tourists is expected to reach 1.3 million by 2013.<br />

Foreign Tourist Arrivals (FTAs) in India during 2010<br />

touched 5.58 million with a growth rate of 9.3% as<br />

compared to a growth rate of 3.3% during 2009.<br />

According to the World Travel and Tourism<br />

Council (WTTC) 2011 report, India is expected to<br />

attract 6,179,000 international tourist (overnight<br />

visitor) arrivals in 2011, generating US$ 15.05 billion<br />

(INR678.6bn) in visitor exports (foreign visitor<br />

spending, including spending on transportation). The<br />

direct contribution of Travel & Tourism to GDP is<br />

expected to be US$ 34.8 billion (INR1, 570.5bn) in 2011<br />

which is about 1.9 per cent of the country’s GDP. <strong>This</strong><br />

reflects that the hospitality industry in India will have<br />

to gear up to cater to such high demand. Companies<br />

in India are investing their capital and industry reports<br />

predict that the capital investment in India, in the<br />

travel and tourism sector will grow at the rate of 8.8<br />

per cent between 2010 and 2020.<br />

Mandarin Oriental Group, which owns world’s<br />

most luxurious hotels, resorts and residences, will be<br />

adding 16 new properties in India in the next five<br />

years. Another company in India that is Small Luxury<br />

Hotels of the World (SLH), a marketing firm of luxury<br />

hotels, is expecting to expand their foothold in India.<br />

Currently, SLH has 13 hotels in India and hopes to<br />

add 10 more hotels by the end of 2011.<br />

have already made investment plans in India in recent<br />

years. A number of cities have blossomed with<br />

suburban”Silicon Valley” type Special Economic<br />

Zones (SEZs). <strong>This</strong> is mostly driven due to strong<br />

growth in IT, BPO segments, increase in foreign<br />

travelers, emphasized focus on tourism by government,<br />

affordable airlines fares, etc. Bangalore,<br />

Hyderabad, Chennai, Gorgon, Pune and the outer<br />

edge of Mumbai are the areas attracting international<br />

investment and as expected, are the cities with the<br />

largest development pipelines. Combined, these cities<br />

account for 89 of the 161 projects in the pipeline and<br />

16,734 guestrooms, which is 68% of the rooms in<br />

India’s total pipeline<br />

Hospitality segment, just like many other segments<br />

in India is booming at an unprecedented pace. India<br />

faces a huge challenge of being “under roomed” while<br />

the economy is growing rapidly. <strong>This</strong> provides for a<br />

huge opportunity for hospitality industry. A lot of<br />

large real estate developers are also investing into this<br />

business to bridge the demand-supply gap and<br />

leverage the opportunity.<br />

What is evident from the above is that the<br />

hospitality sector has grown rapidly in the last decade<br />

and is ready to take off from here at a very high speed.<br />

Even though India having very high growth<br />

potentiality and equip with all other requirements in<br />

hospitality industry, yet has such a low percentage in<br />

terms of sector contribution to GDP. Therefore it needs<br />

the help of specialized professionals to fulfill the needs<br />

of the industry as a whole and hotels and restaurants<br />

in particular. In India till now hospitality has been<br />

seen as a much traditionally unique business and was<br />

dealt with the people who have required qualification.<br />

Professionals like CMAs and CAs have not shown a<br />

interest to join this sector so for. By witnessing the<br />

future growth potentiality of this sector, they are<br />

showing keen interest to get into this sector. Of course<br />

CMAs are more equipped to handle nuke and corner<br />

of this sector, because of their expertise and<br />

knowledge.<br />

For the purpose of identifying the pragmatic<br />

position of Cost and Management Accountants in<br />

hospitality industry one has to touch upon at least<br />

three broad areas like —<br />

01. Food service<br />

02. Lodging<br />

03. Traveling<br />

and expertise to act all the three types of involvements.<br />

We can discuss this unique role in the following<br />

sector is struggling to grow up but definitely it has a<br />

dazzling future. There is substantial prospective for<br />

hospitality to make a great contribution to economic<br />

development and for wellbeing of the foreign and<br />

domestic tourists in India. As the matter fact experts<br />

in this field argues that hospitality industry lagging<br />

behind other industries, in the service sector due to<br />

global economic slowdown. Still it has a huge market<br />

potentiality and in the very recent years it is slowly<br />

coming out of those hard hits. Nowadays different<br />

kinds of advanced studies and research activities are<br />

going in the institutions of higher learning to help the<br />

industrialists to capitalize the market potentialities.<br />

Only thing is that the Government has to take<br />

measures to promote the tourism industry, which will<br />

definitely fulfill the desires and aspirations of almost<br />

all the stakeholders of hospitality industry. CMAs can<br />

work independently for applying analytical, technical,<br />

managerial, accounting and auditing skills in many<br />

areas of cost and management control. Thus CMAs<br />

can serve the hospitality industry and lend a hand to<br />

grow further and add more meaning to the phrase<br />

incredible India. ❐<br />

Role of CMAs in adapting Contemporary<br />

Techniques in Hospitality Management<br />

The role of Management Accountants has<br />

emerged to become one of the most essential<br />

factors globally. But in the hospitality industry<br />

it has not achieved the same scale of applications as<br />

in other fields.<br />

Considering the intense industry-wide competition<br />

where customers persistently demand the best deals,<br />

for management and employees in the hotel industry<br />

it becomes a question of thorough knowledge and<br />

understanding of all elements of the business,<br />

including how it should continuously change in<br />

accordance with societal changes and changes in<br />

customers’ preferences.<br />

Traditional thinking needs to be expanded to<br />

embrace inter-organizational issues in respect to<br />

knowledge stocks and flows within organizational<br />

networks. From a management accountant’s strategic<br />

perspective based on static versus dynamic views, this<br />

paper frames some of the techniques required in the<br />

hospitality sector at an industry, inter-and intraorganizational<br />

level.<br />

The following are the questions that will be<br />

addressed in this paper :<br />

Why is the hospitality industry important and<br />

what are the challenges and opportunities for a<br />

management accountant?<br />

What strategic perspectives pertaining to traditional<br />

and contemporary views on knowledge<br />

development need to be employed by CMAs in the<br />

hospitality management?<br />

Importance of and challenges in the hospitality<br />

industry<br />

The hospitality industry is characterized by its<br />

outputs of service products, which primarily satisfy the<br />

demand for accommodation, food and beverage. For<br />

the achievement of the final service products,<br />

hospitality companies collaborate with a variety of<br />

service industries (i.e. convention agencies, online<br />

travel agencies, tour operators, carriers, entertainment,<br />

shopping and local sightseeing agencies)<br />

in which some compete and others collaborate with<br />

each other. One common characteristic of hospitality<br />

companies with these service providers is especially<br />

dominant: their service processes are becoming<br />

knowledge-based or knowledge-intensive due to<br />

the great influence and use of information and<br />

communication technology. The tourism and<br />

hospitality industry requires the largest usage of<br />

information technology (IT).<br />

Moreover, the industry is knowledge-intensive as<br />

a result of the nature of the service product, where<br />

the service delivery occurs as a result of interaction<br />

between customers and employees and where it is<br />

required that employees are knowledgeable of<br />

customers’ needs in order to achieve customer satisfaction.<br />

Relationship between employee satisfaction and<br />

customer satisfaction has a significant impact on a<br />

hospitality company’s financial performance and<br />

involves analysis of four major relationships :<br />

1. Direct relationship between customer satisfaction<br />

and financial performance;<br />

2. Direct relationship between employee satisfaction<br />

and financial performance;<br />

3. Direct relationship between customer satisfaction<br />

and employee satisfaction; and<br />

4. Indirect relationship between employee satisfaction<br />

and financial performance.<br />

While customer satisfaction has positive significant<br />

impact on financial performance, employee<br />

satisfaction has no direct significant impact on<br />

financial performance. Instead, there is an indirect<br />

relationship between employee satisfaction and<br />

financial performance, which is mediated by customer<br />

satisfaction.<br />

Online Interpersonal Influence<br />

Interpersonal influence ranks as the most<br />

important information source when a consumer is<br />

making a purchase decision. <strong>This</strong> influence may be<br />

especially important in the hospitality and tourism<br />

industry, whose intangible products are difficult to<br />

evaluate prior to their consumption. When it becomes<br />

digital, the large scale, anonymous, ephemeral nature<br />

of the Internet induces new ways of capturing,<br />

analyzing, interpreting, and managing information<br />

online. Online interpersonal influence is a potentially<br />

cost-effective means for marketing hospitality and<br />

tourism.<br />

A good example of consumers sharing their<br />

hospitality and tourism opinions is the website<br />

tripadvisor.com— the largest site for unbiased travel<br />

reviews which gives the real story about hotels,<br />

attractions and restaurants around the world. It<br />

is updated every minute and every day by real<br />

travelers.<br />

Expected outcomes from the dissemination of<br />

online interpersonal influence<br />

Unsurprisingly, the overarching conclusion is that<br />

favorable influence increases the probability of<br />

purchase, while negative influence has the opposite<br />

effect. Interpersonal influence impacts not only the<br />

receiver’s perceived value of a company’s products,<br />

but also their loyalty intentions. Interpersonal<br />

influence flows not only from opinion leaders to<br />

followers, but also spreads as a result of relationships<br />

among followers. Marketers hoping to harness these<br />

relationships can seek amplification of initial<br />

marketing efforts. <strong>This</strong> can be accomplished through<br />

advertising and other promotion techniques that get<br />

consumers talking about brands.<br />

Strategies by CMAs for managing online<br />

interpersonal influence<br />

The unique properties and environment of the<br />

Internet necessitate a new view of the dynamics of<br />

online influence, and new strategies to be adapted<br />

by a management accountant for managing them.<br />

These can be classified into two major categories:<br />

informational, and revenue generating. From an<br />

informational perspective, procedures need to be<br />

established that allow hospitality and tourism<br />

marketers to harvest discussion and feedback created<br />

online.<br />

Harvested information about the property and<br />

destination can then be used to accomplish such tasks<br />

as: enhancing visitor satisfaction through product<br />

improvement; solving visitor problems; discovering<br />

what visitors say about their experiences; analyzing<br />

competitive strategies; and monitoring company<br />

reputation/image.<br />

Of no less importance is the need to manage online<br />

influence for purposes of revenue generation. These<br />

efforts could be directed toward spreading good<br />

opinions about the property and destination—helping<br />

potential visitors seeking information by providing<br />

reinforcing images and opinions.<br />

Opportunities for CMAs by enabling switching<br />

from traditional to contemporary management<br />

accounting practices<br />

Only traditional management accounting techniques<br />

such as absorption costing, standard costing,<br />

traditional budgets, CVP analysis and profit-based<br />

performance measures that focus on concerns internal<br />

to the organization are practiced widely. The application<br />

of more recent management accounting tools, such<br />

as activity based costing (ABC) , balanced score card<br />

(BSC), target costing, value chain analysis and<br />

benchmarking—that affect the whole process of<br />

manage-ment accounting (planning, controlling,<br />

decision making, and performance evaluation)—<br />

will make the hospitality management shift the<br />

focus of a CMA from a “simple” or “naive” role of cost<br />

determination and financial control to a “sophisticated”<br />

role of creating value through improved deployment<br />

of resources.<br />

Conclusion<br />

Very little is yet known about contemporary<br />

management accounting techniques in Hospitality<br />

enterprises and, especially, in hotels. Overall, traditional<br />

management accounting techniques (e.g.<br />

budgeting practices, profitability measures, product<br />

profitability analysis, customer profitability analysis,<br />

absorption costing and nonfinancial measures for<br />

performance evaluation) are more widely adapted<br />

than recently developed tools.<br />

Traditional management accounting is very much<br />

alive and well. But there is a need to place greater<br />

emphasis on more recently developed techniques in the<br />

future by CMAs, particularly activity based costing<br />

techniques (activity based costing, activity based<br />

budgeting, and activity based management), balanced<br />

scorecard and benchmarking etc. in order to enhance<br />

the value addition to the services rendered and achieve<br />

global excellence. ❐<br />

Introduction<br />

Home is an invention of our forebears that<br />

emancipated them from the compulsive<br />

nomadic life. But hotel is a home away from<br />

home needed by people in their sojourn. Its history is<br />

coeval with the history of travelling. The everincreasing<br />

importance of hotels in our life has given<br />

birth to a fully-grown industry in the early nineteenth<br />

century which is known as the hospitality industry.<br />

The economic significance of this industry can be<br />

appreciated from the fact that this industry provides<br />

employment to about 200 million people or 8 percent<br />

of the world employment – making it one in every<br />

twelve jobs. In financial terms, the size of the industry<br />

is $463 billion or 11 percent of the world gross product<br />

(Wood and Brotherton, 2008). Notwithstanding the<br />

economic significance, the term “hospitality industry”<br />

remains ill-defined and one source widely differs from<br />

another as to the meaning and ambit of this industry.<br />

Besides, most literature on hospitality management<br />

has bypassed the definition of the term. Indeed, the<br />

diversity of the industry is so great that it is difficult<br />

to develop a simple definition of hospitality. In some<br />

university curriculum hospitality and tourism<br />

management are placed under the same rubric.<br />

However, there is no reason to believe that ‘travel and<br />

tourism industry’ and ‘hospitality industry’ mean the<br />

same thing. Travel and tourism industry refers to all<br />

business that caters to the needs of the travelling<br />

public; the hospitality industry, on the other hand,<br />

refers to the organisations that provide lodging or<br />

accommodations and food services for people when<br />

they are away from their homes.<br />

A close look at the hospitality industry<br />

Oldest hotel : Savoy Hotel in London; opened in<br />

1889, part of its structure can be traced to the age of<br />

Chaucer (14th century).<br />

US domination : Eighty percent of the world’s top<br />

hotels are owned by the US companies: Cendant<br />

Corporation (US: 6,455 hotels & 5,41,313 rooms);<br />

Choice: (US: 4,392 hotels & 3,50,351 rooms); Best<br />

World’s largest hotel: Till date, the 5,500-room<br />

Izamilovo in Moscow is the largest hotel. Waldorf-<br />

Astoria, Manhattan, has 1,852 rooms, but it comes<br />

within the grand luxe category. The smallest one<br />

could be a single-room guest facility in part of the<br />

owner’s house where some foodservices are also<br />

provided.<br />

Location : The location of hotels has always been<br />

related to the transportation available. The first<br />

colonial post offices were established in 1710 and the<br />

inns and hotels multiplied and improved along the<br />

postal roads. Railroads had an enormous influence<br />

on hotel development. From 1860 to 1920, most large<br />

hotels were built near railway stations. The invention<br />

of automobiles in the early 1920s triggered off a boom<br />

in the hotel industry and many inns and motels were<br />

constructed along highway routes.<br />

Touristy snippets (all figures for 2000) : United States<br />

remains the top tourism spender—in dollar terms, 65<br />

billion. With earnings of $65 billion or 18 percent of<br />

world spending, USA remains the top tourism earner.<br />

In terms of tourist arrivals France occupies top<br />

position—claiming some 76 million visitors and 11<br />

percent of international tourist arrivals.<br />

Great tour operator: A Melbourne-born clergy and<br />

a temperance activist, Thomas Cook, is considered<br />

to be the pioneer amongst the tour operators. In 1841<br />

he chartered a special train to carry passengers from<br />

Leicester to Loughborough for a temperance<br />

meeting. The success of the guided excursion led to<br />

the formation of a travel agency bearing his moniker.<br />

Thomas Cook organized personally conducted tours<br />

throughout Europe and procured travelling and<br />

hotel accommodations for tourists making<br />

independent trips.<br />

Origin of hospitality industry<br />

India, home to the most ancient civilization of the<br />

world, has regarded hospitality in its very own style<br />

—“Athithi debo bhava—guests are like gods”.<br />

Emanating from this ancient Sanskrit adage is the<br />

bounded duty of every householder that required him<br />

to meet the need of the travelling people with food<br />

and shelter. Clearly, the origin of the word hospitality<br />

—in its present connotation of providing shelter and<br />

food for money—cannot be traced to India. Neither<br />

do we have any credible evidence that the Greeks of<br />

the ancient age had any hotels or inns; instead, the<br />

travellers enjoyed the hospitality of private homes.<br />

The history of hotels being inextricably linked to the<br />

history of travel, we come across evidence that in the<br />

Hebrew village of Judea, travellers camped in the open<br />

spaces – much like the Bedouins of today, while for<br />

the affluent among the travellers, brothels could be a<br />

comfortable alternative. However, a perusal of the<br />

etymology in the Oxford English Dictionary (OED)<br />

shows that ‘hostel’, ‘hotel’ and hospitality have some<br />

common etymology > ‘hospice’, which is a house of<br />

rest and entertainment for the pilgrims, travellers, or<br />

strangers. The OED further shows that such facilities<br />

were in existence at least from the eleventh century,<br />

the period which marks the culmination of the Dark<br />

Age and upheaval that prevailed in Europe for about<br />

500 years after the fall of the Roman Empire. <strong>This</strong><br />

period also marks the beginning of the Crusade when<br />

Knights Hospitalers created shelters and hospices for<br />

the Crusaders and the pilgrims to the Holy Land.<br />

Different types of hotels and diversity of services<br />

Hotel industry is known for its diversity and<br />

multifarious services. As with their types — which<br />

range from hotels to motels and boatels, and even<br />

treetop hotels — the services provided also vary from<br />

one segment to another of the industry. A small hotel<br />

is known as an inn. Hotels located near highways,<br />

providing parking space for the guests’ automobiles,<br />

are called motels (motor hotels). Hotels providing<br />

cheap accommodation with minimal services are<br />

known as hostels.<br />

Hotels are generally grouped into three main<br />

categories :<br />

● Commercial hotels : Such hotels mainly cater to<br />

business clients and usually provide room service, coffeeshop,<br />

dining room, cocktail lounge, laundry and valet<br />

service as well as access to computers and fax services.<br />

Commercial hotels, also called transient hotels, are<br />

usually located within city boundaries and caters to<br />

people travelling for business or pleasure. Motor hotels<br />

or motels cater to the same group of people, but are often<br />

situated near or along major highways.<br />

● Resort hotels : Usually located at the sea or in<br />

the mountains, resort hotels are the planned<br />

destination of the vacationers. They may offer any<br />

form of entertainment to keep their guests happy and<br />

busy.<br />

● Economy hotels : They provide a limited service<br />

and are known for clean rooms at low prices meeting<br />

just the basic needs of travellers.<br />

● Airport hotels : The other types of hotels include<br />

Airport hotels and Casino hotels. Airport Hotels are<br />

located near airports and are a conveniently located<br />

to provide any level of service from just a clean room<br />

to room service and they may provide bus or luxury<br />

transportation services to the airlines. Casino Hotels<br />

are often quite luxurious. Their main purpose is in<br />

support of the gambling operation. Casino hotels<br />

often offer top name entertainment and excellent<br />

restaurants.<br />

● Conference centres : With the overarching<br />

influence of globalization, yet another segment of the<br />

hotel industry—the Conference Centres—are gaining<br />

popularity among the business people. Conference<br />

Centres are designed to specifically provide meeting<br />

space for large groups; they provide all services and<br />

equipment necessary to handle conventions.<br />

Conventions constitute the most important source<br />

of income for some hotels and motels. In the USA, for<br />

example, it is estimated that some 10 million people<br />

attend conventions each year. Conventions are also a<br />

steady source of income both from sleeping<br />

accommodations and from meeting rooms, which are<br />

used for conferences and lectures. Dining facilities are<br />

the source of additional revenue through the sale of<br />

food and beverages. Local residents also use the<br />

catering services, meeting rooms, and ballrooms for<br />

social functions and business meetings.<br />

People stay at hotels for a variety of reasons.<br />

According to one source (Encyclopaedia Americana,<br />

2006) in the United States, 23 percent of lodging<br />

customers comprise people who attend conference;<br />

business travellers comprise 22 percent; 32 percent<br />

comprise the vacationers and 32 percent use hotels<br />

for other reasons. 1 percent of the customers stay at<br />

hotel while moving to a new job or residence.<br />

People who travel outside their homes not only<br />

require accommodation in the hotels, but they also<br />

need a wide variety of services: food and beverage<br />

services; entertainment and miscellaneous personal<br />

services. According to the nature of service provided<br />

hotels are categorized as full service hotels to bed and<br />

breakfast (B & B) hotels. Most standard hotel services<br />

include: foodservices, bars and lounges, healthcare,<br />

recreation and leisure services, sports and recreation<br />

Accounting in the hospitality industry<br />

Given the kind of service and products dealt in by<br />

the hospitality industry, the accounting needs of the<br />

industry appear to be quite special. As ever, an<br />

accountant of a typical hotel plays his traditional role<br />

—recording financial transaction, preparing and<br />

interpreting financial statements, and providing<br />

management with necessary information for timely<br />

actions. He keeps track of the revenues and expenses<br />

of the food and beverage department. The food and<br />

beverage department provides the foodservices, but<br />

the accounting department is responsible for collecting<br />

revenues. In short, the accounting function permeates<br />

in the day-to-day operations of the hotel industry. It<br />

is responsible for collecting and reporting most of a<br />

hotel’s operational and financial statistics.<br />

But suppose, if one hotel operator states that his<br />

gross profit from operations is 70 percent, what will<br />

it exactly mean to another operator, and for that<br />

matter, to the users of accounting information by and<br />

large? How does the industry deal with its revenue<br />

streams from rooms, restaurants, conference and<br />

banqueting services, leisure facilities, etc. and how<br />

does it match the expenses in relation to these<br />

revenues? In short, what is the Generally Accepted<br />

Accounting Principles (GAAP) for hotel industry?<br />

Accountancy profession needs GAAP or a<br />

benchmark against which to compare its own<br />

performance over time or the performance of others<br />

vis-à-vis its own. The key in making comparisons —<br />

whether they are against budgets, results of prior<br />

periods or results of other businesses — is that all<br />

figures should be comparable on a consistent basis.<br />

Moreover, the credibility of the accounting profession<br />

greatly depends on the consensus among its users. It<br />

was, however, not before 1932 that the New York<br />

Stock Exchange focussed on the need for some kind<br />

of “accepted accounting principles”. By 1938, the<br />

Great Depression (1929-1939) in the USA and related<br />

developments in the field of accounting led to the<br />

coinage of the term “Generally Accepted Accounting<br />

Principles”. But it was not before 1965 that Paul Grady<br />

published his “An Inventory of Generally Accepted<br />

Accounting Principles in the United States”.<br />

In juxtaposition to this development in the<br />

accounting history, probably unbeknownst to many<br />

of us and, of course, much ahead of the mainstream<br />

accountants, the hospitality industry in the United<br />

States made its foray into a common accounting<br />

solution for its members. In 1926, the Hotel<br />

Association of New York City published the first<br />

edition of its accounting manual “The Uniform System<br />

of Accounts for Lodging Industry” (USALI), which is<br />

a wellspring of guidelines for preparing accounting<br />

standards and reporting practices that reflect<br />

terminology and activity unique to the hospitality<br />

industry. With seventy years of history and experience<br />

and ten editions (Educational Institute of AH&LA<br />

2006) behind it, this venerated source of hotel<br />

accounting manual is being widely followed by the<br />

major US hotel chains around the world. Some leading<br />

practitioners of this system are Holiday Inn, Marriott,<br />

Copthorne, InterContinental, Sheraton, Hyatt and<br />

Whitbread. Those using a slightly amended version<br />

are Forte and Hilton. Those using their own method<br />

are believed to be Mount Charlotte, De Vere and<br />

Jarvis. <strong>This</strong> means that virtually all of the main hotel<br />

companies in the UK and the USA use the Uniform<br />

System as the basis of their accounting and reporting<br />

system (Chin and Braney : 1995).<br />

How USALI works?<br />

First of all, USALI sets forth detail recommendations<br />

on how particular transactions should be dealt<br />

with in accounting terms. In its content, USALI is a<br />

highly departmentalized system of accounting with<br />

firm moorings on Departmental Income Statement.<br />

Functionally, hotel accounting can be broken down<br />

to two core segments: Operating and Overhead. The<br />

operating segment is the revenue producing<br />

departments and includes rooms, food, and beverage,<br />

telecommunications and similar operations. The<br />

overhead departments are administrative and general<br />

functions, data processing, human resources,<br />

transportation, marketing, guest entertainment,<br />

energy costs, and property operations and<br />

maintenance. Taken together, USALI can produce up<br />

to thirty departmental statements (Popowich, Taylor,<br />

and Sydor, 1997). USALI then integrates all these<br />

departmental statements into a summary statement<br />

of income (or simply, Income Statement). The<br />

Summary Income Statement consists of three parts:<br />

(a) The upper part relates to the departmental<br />

operations. It captures revenues from the relevant<br />

departments and from the net revenues of each<br />

department it then deducts departmental costs,<br />

departmental wages, related expenses and other<br />

departmental expenses in order to arrive at the<br />

departmental income or loss.<br />

(b) The second part of the summary statement<br />

of income then lists the “Undistributed Operating<br />

Expenses”. The total of these expenses are deducted<br />

from the total departmental income to arrive at income<br />

before fixed charges. The available surplus at this stage<br />

752 The Management Accountant |September 2011


is known as “Income after Undistributed Operating<br />

Expenses” (vide Ninth Edition of USALI).<br />

(c) Finally, at the third part of the income<br />

statement, fixed charges such as rent, taxes, insurance,<br />

interest, depreciation and amortization charges are<br />

deducted in order to arrive at “Income before Incometaxes”.<br />

As usual, the net income is the amount<br />

available after income tax obligations.<br />

It may be mentioned here that, in most cases,<br />

undistributed operating expenses, combined with<br />

management fees, rent, property taxes, and insurance<br />

comprise the major portion of total expenses for the<br />

period. It is further pointed that hotels have a high<br />

proportion of fixed costs and that about three-quarters<br />

of the total costs are fixed and uncontrollable (Kotas,<br />

1982, 1997)<br />

USALI and GAAP<br />

There is no reason to believe that USALI is a<br />

universally accepted method of accounting for the<br />

hospitality industry. There are many countries where<br />

USALI is not followed or the published Annual Reports<br />

does not contain reference to the USALI, e.g. the Annual<br />

Reports of the Taj Hotel Groups. One particular reason<br />

for not following USALI in India is that, under the<br />

Indian Companies Act, 1956, the form and content of<br />

the Income Statement and the Balance Sheet are rather<br />

prescriptive and sector neutral. However, the strength<br />

of USALI lies in the fact that the income statement<br />

prepared under this method is highly adaptable to the<br />

accounting requirements under the GAAP and<br />

Companies Act. Indeed, the purpose of USALI is not<br />

to replace but to supplement GAAP. Besides, as a result<br />

of continuous updating of USALI, it is now more<br />

aligned to the GAAP than ever.<br />

Some changes made in the 9th and 10th Editions<br />

of USALI leading to greater convergence with GAAP<br />

are as below :<br />

(a) Preopening expenses : Preopening expenses<br />

include expenditures for intangible costs incurred<br />

prior to the opening of a hotel property that will<br />

benefit the property in future years. Examples include<br />

the grand-opening party, advertising, and training.<br />

Historically, those expenditures have been recorded<br />

as preopening expenses and reported as an “other<br />

asset” on the balance sheet. Those costs were then<br />

amortized over an intermediate period, such as three<br />

to five years. But to align it with the International<br />

Accounting Standards/national GAAP, those<br />

expenditures cannot be recognized as assets; they are<br />

now required to be recorded as expenses immediately.<br />

(b) China and glassware : In the past the uniform<br />

system recommended that those items be recorded<br />

as “property and equipment” and be written off over<br />

their useful life. Now, these items are required to be<br />

expensed when placed into use.<br />

(c) Banquet service gratuities : Historically,<br />

gratuities received for banquet services have remained<br />

a contentious subject and has been subjected to<br />

heterogeneous treatments. A common approach has<br />

been to record gratuities received as a payable and<br />

then reduce that payable as the gratuities were paid<br />

to employees. That practice, however, results in no<br />

income being shown from gratuities received and no<br />

labour expense related to the gratuities passed on to<br />

employees. <strong>This</strong> practice also resulted in an<br />

understatement of both revenues and expenses.<br />

USALI now requires that gratuities be recognized as<br />

both a revenue and labour expense.<br />

(d) Barter transaction : Barter transactions are<br />

those which hotel organisations use directly from the<br />

parties/associates in lieu of service to be provided in<br />

future, e.g. advertising service provided by a company<br />

for which accommodation service is to be provided<br />

in future. <strong>This</strong> being an executor contract, the earlier<br />

versions of USALI did not recognise it in their books<br />

of account. Now, in order to provide more complete<br />

information, USALI recommends recording an asset<br />

and a liability at the time of barter transaction.<br />

Subsequently, when services are provided by the hotel<br />

organisations, revenues are recorded and charged to<br />

the barter liability. On the other hand, expenses are<br />

offset against barter asset account when the service is<br />

received.<br />

Cost and Managerial Accounting in Hospitality<br />

Industry<br />

Since large hotel chains are in the corporate sector,<br />

the need for well-developed financial reporting<br />

system has always been felt in the hospitality industry.<br />

However, hospitality organisations renders diverse<br />

services—rooms, restaurants, conference and<br />

banqueting, leisure facilities and so on, each having<br />

its own revenue streams and staffing and other cost<br />

structures. Therefore, hospitality managers must also<br />

know how resources are used and there must be an<br />

information system to help them understand and<br />

evaluate short-term and long-term courses of action.<br />

Without an effective management accounting system,<br />

managers will not know how the different parts of<br />

their organisation are performing.<br />

But, does USALI provide management with such<br />

information system? If not, how does the hospitality<br />

industry fulfil its information need for timely, relevant<br />

managerial decisions? Given the fact that a<br />

sophisticated understanding of the firm’s cost<br />

structure goes a long way in reaping sustainable<br />

competitive advantage in terms of cost leadership,<br />

every organisation worth its salt would ideally seek<br />

to align its accounting and cost and management<br />

accounting system so as to fulfil the aforementioned<br />

goals, which, according to Kaplan and Cooper (1998:<br />

p. 2), boils down to :<br />

(a) valuation of inventory and measurement of the<br />

cost of goods sold for financial reporting;<br />

(b) estimation of the cost of activities, products,<br />

services, and customers; and<br />

(c) provision of economic feedbacks to managers<br />

and operators about process efficiency.<br />

Kaplan and Cooper (1998), however, found that<br />

the accounting system of most organisations is not<br />

geared to the aforesaid needs. Indeed, the<br />

inadequacies of the traditional accounting system are<br />

so great that Kaplan and Cooper (1998) built up the<br />

whole logic behind their magnum opus, Cost and Effect,<br />

to the idea that, “One cost system is not enough”. They<br />

argue, “In the past, many companies attempted to<br />

meet these three different functions with a single<br />

costing system. In an environment of limited product<br />

and process variety—where excellence in manufacturing<br />

process was not critical for success—a single<br />

costing system might have sufficed” (p. 2). But clearly,<br />

this is no longer possible now because, Kaplan and<br />

Cooper (1998: p.1) argues, changes in business since<br />

the mid-1970s triggered by global competition and<br />

technological innovations have led to the striking<br />

innovations in the use of financial and non-financial<br />

information in organisations. Organisations, therefore,<br />

in a bid to find their own niche, must undertake<br />

journey through the four sequential stages illustrated<br />

by Kaplan and Cooper (1998 : p. 12).<br />

In relation to the four-stage model of cost system<br />

design, an analysis of the USALI would reveal that it<br />

is apparently a disciplined approach to producing a<br />

clear, usable information for performance evaluation<br />

of the different areas of hospitality business (Quigley<br />

and Angwin, 2011), but a deeper analysis would reveal<br />

that so far as the information need of the management<br />

is concerned, at best it represents a transition from<br />

Stage I to Stage II in the cost management system design<br />

suggested by Kaplan and Cooper.<br />

For instance, De Franco (1997) has found that allmost<br />

all the hotels use traditional budgets for planning<br />

annual operations, controlling of costs, and for<br />

coordinating activities of various parts of the hotels.<br />

About half of the companies use zero-base budgets,<br />

while a few use flexible budgets (Schidgall et al, 1996).<br />

Most USALI users make use of traditional, profitability<br />

measures for performance evaluation, e.g.<br />

● Average Room Rate = Rooms Revenue divided<br />

by Rooms Occupied<br />

● Average Food Check = Total Food Revenue<br />

divided by Number of Covers (i.e. guests served in<br />

the food operation during the period).<br />

In order to have a proper check on the inventory<br />

of rooms and their utilizations, USAL has recently<br />

started using a new indicator called RevPar (which<br />

stands for revenue per available room). RevPar is<br />

calculated as Room revenue divided by total rooms<br />

available. USALI uses the entire inventory of rooms<br />

as a denominator (including those not ready for use)<br />

to indicate whether the inventory of rooms is being<br />

managed properly. In a recent survey by Pavlots<br />

et al. (2007) have found that a majority of the hotel<br />

organizations have been using traditional cost<br />

accounting system like absorption costing and costvolume-profit<br />

(CVP) analysis, with quite a few using<br />

standard cost accounting system.<br />

Hospitality organisations are basically service<br />

organisations. However, notwithstanding the<br />

observation of Kaplan and Cooper (1998 : P. 231) that<br />

service companies are ideal candidates for activity-<br />

based costing, the results of many surveys, however,<br />

indicate that the use of activity-based costing in the<br />

hotel organisations is very few and far between.<br />

As a service industry, hospitality industry has a<br />

high proportion of fixed costs, with approximately<br />

three-quarters of the total cost of hotels being<br />

uncontrollable (Kotas, 1997). The room department<br />

has a fixed cost of 15-20% in relation to its sales<br />

volumes, while food and beverage operations entail<br />

relatively high fixed costs in the form of kitchen and<br />

restaurant wages. <strong>This</strong> means that allocation of costs<br />

can have a significant impact on determining the<br />

financial performance. The merits of activity-based<br />

costing over the traditional cost accounting method<br />

has been extolled, amongst others, by Kaplan and<br />

Cooper (1998) and Shank and Govindarajan (1993).<br />

But unfortunately, with all the glaring defects of<br />

improper and misleading cost allocation of traditional<br />

cost accounting system, activity-based costing plays<br />

second fiddle in the hospitality organisations. The<br />

consequence of such action is well demonstrated by<br />

Tsai et al (2010) who have recently studied the<br />

advantage of using ABC of a country inn in Taiwan.<br />

The study gives better insight into the customer costs<br />

for each market segment in order to offer more<br />

accurate cost information for innkeepers to make<br />

better managerial decision. Also, this study compares<br />

the ABC with the traditional costing method, and<br />

concludes that the ABC method is a more suitable<br />

and appropriate tool than traditional accounting<br />

method in a country inn.<br />

Conclusion<br />

The need for a system of cost and managerial<br />

information in the hospitality industry can hardly be<br />

exaggerated. Without an effective management<br />

accounting system many hospitality operators will not<br />

even know how well or worse the different parts of<br />

their business are performing. In this context, it needs<br />

to be reiterated that accounting is not an end in itself,<br />

but a means to achieving certain goals. Accounting<br />

tools and techniques must, therefore, be considered<br />

in terms of the role they intend to play in the schema<br />

of things laid down by those who are at the helm of<br />

affairs of the business.<br />

Over the last fifty years accountants have amassed<br />

enough techniques in their toolbox : ABC, Balances<br />

Attention Members<br />

Scorecard and Lifecycle Costing, in addition to the<br />

traditional tools to keep up with the demands. In fact,<br />

since early 1980s, the field of management accounting<br />

has unfolded itself in its full breadth. But the problem,<br />

as Rene Descartes once pointed out, is that, “to be<br />

possessed by a vigorous mind is not enough; the prime<br />

requisite is rightly to apply it”. <strong>This</strong> equally applies<br />

to the accounting problems of hospitality industry.<br />

Accounting techniques that are not useful for some<br />

purpose may be extremely useful for others. The task<br />

that lies ahead of the accountants in the hospitality<br />

industry, therefore, is to analyse the value chain in<br />

the hospitality industry to provide it the necessary<br />

signal. In the process, activity-based costing is a<br />

transitory goal, not an end in itself. ❐<br />

industry to this front.<br />

Hospitality management is the academic study of<br />

the running of hotels, restaurants, and travel and<br />

tourism-related business. The hotel industry, which<br />

is an integral part of the tourism sector, provides a<br />

large percentage of the total employment in the<br />

staff to provide professional services to national and<br />

international clients. The hotel and catering industry<br />

has been one of the fastest growing industries in the<br />

world in past 50 years. India’s hotel industry is<br />

thriving due to an increase in business opportunities<br />

form of One Star to Five Star with deluxe amenities.<br />

Not only this, it can be either in the form of sole<br />

proprietorship or a partnership or a private limited<br />

or a public limited company.<br />

Like other business and industrial establishments,<br />

hotels too are commercial entities. A number of<br />

financial transactions take place :<br />

● from purchase of raw materials to conversion<br />

it into finished product for sale;<br />

● purchases of finished goods for sale in their<br />

original forms;<br />

● purchases of consumable articles; and<br />

● purchases of capital items from the suppliers,<br />

and sell of accommodations, meals, drinks and<br />

services to its clients.<br />

It is not possible that the owner or the employees<br />

remember all such transactions. So it is essential to keep<br />

a written record of all the transactions in appropriate<br />

books and records which may help in calculating the<br />

profit earned or the loss incurred during a particular<br />

and other staff to whom salary is to be paid. Having<br />

regard to their nature of business, there are certain<br />

accounting aspects which are tailor-made to this<br />

industry.<br />

Hotels maintain a number of registers, summary<br />

sheets and accounting books (vary according to the<br />

size and requirement of the hotel) for the purpose of<br />

providing a complete picture of the financial<br />

transactions. Hotels maintain their accounts in<br />

columnar to tabular form. Data of each head of<br />

income, expenditure, purchase and sales of each day<br />

are analysed for costing, control, forecasting and other<br />

managerial work by a CMA and it forms an integral<br />

part in hospitality management.<br />

Income Accounting<br />

In hotel industry two types of business—namely<br />

manufacturer and retailer—take place and products<br />

pass through many hands. Therefore, the problem of<br />

controlling is very vital. The accounts department is<br />

generally headed by a Financial Controller who may<br />

be assisted by an Assistant Financial Controller<br />

(depends on the hotels) who is/are supported by<br />

Credit Manager-cum-Income Accountant, Food &<br />

Beverages Controller, Head Cashier and Accountant<br />

for general accounting functions. In hotels the credit<br />

is allowed to all clients except a few who appear to be<br />

of doubtful nature and bring no luggage with them.<br />

Personal accounts of clients are opened immediately<br />

as soon as they arrive and occupy rooms in the hotel<br />

because their departure is always uncertain. A hotel<br />

has many departments—so cash is collected and credit<br />

is allowed at many points.<br />

The Credit Manager-cum-Income Accountant is<br />

responsible for proper recording of all income<br />

transactions into City Ledger such as Ledger of<br />

Individuals, Ledger for Offenders, Ledger for Credit<br />

Card Holders, Ledger for Travel Agencies, Ledger<br />

for Government Departments, etc.<br />

The Food & Beverages department deals with<br />

costing of daily consumption, preparation of monthly<br />

Food & Beverages reports, recommending selling<br />

prices of various items at Food & Beverages outlets,<br />

maintenance of a proper stores kardex/ledger for<br />

The objective of income accounting is to ensure<br />

that the transactions have been correctly recorded<br />

without revenue leakage and they give sufficient data<br />

for MIS reports.<br />

The income of a hotel can be classified into the<br />

following three categories :<br />

(i) Room Revenue : Total Room revenue during the<br />

day is based upon the report of Night Clerk working<br />

in the Front Office which contains details of every room<br />

occupied along with room tariff as posted in individual<br />

folios and/or Green report of the guests. It is very<br />

important for every hotel to monitor its occupancy rate<br />

and revenue rate on a continuous basis. Following are<br />

some of the indicators adopted by various hotels in<br />

determining the performance. These ratios—when<br />

viewed in the context of corresponding figures of<br />

previous accounting periods or that of similar other<br />

hotels—reflect the marketing policies :<br />

(a) Operating ratios (capacity utilization)<br />

Room occupancy rate =<br />

Total number of room nights occupied * 100<br />

Total number of room nights available<br />

Bed occupancy rate =<br />

Total number of in-house guests * 100<br />

Total number of guests<br />

Restaurant occupancy rate = Total Meals served/<br />

Restaurant seating capacity<br />

(b) Operating ratios (average prices)<br />

Average rate per room = Room Sales/Total<br />

number of room nights occupied<br />

Average rate per guest = Room Sales/Total<br />

number of in-house guests<br />

Average charges per guest =<br />

Total revenue from in-house guests<br />

Total number of in-house guests<br />

Cost per meal = Total Restaurant sales/Total Meals<br />

served<br />

(c) Accounting Profitability ratio<br />

Operating ratio = (Operating profit *100)/<br />

Operating Assets<br />

Gross Profit Ratio = (Gross Profit * 100)/Total Sales<br />

Net Profit Ratio = (Net Profit * 100) * Total Sales<br />

(d) Accounting Liquid Ratio<br />

Current ratio = Current Assets / Current Liabilities<br />

Stock Turnover = Cost of Sales/Average inventory<br />

at cost<br />

Debtors Turnover = Debtors/Credit sales.<br />

(ii) Food & Beverages Sales : Here the sales can be<br />

of two types, namely, (a) Banquet Sales, and<br />

(b) Other sales. For a banquet, a person has to take<br />

booking in advance. At the time of booking, several set<br />

of functional prospectus are prepared which records<br />

expected number of guests, guaranteed number of<br />

guests, mode of payment, menu to be served, type of<br />

linen to be used and other terms and conditions. A copy<br />

of the functional prospectus is circulated to all<br />

concerned departments. The Income department<br />

maintains a Daily Banquet Register to ensure that all<br />

functions are properly billed. After the banquet is over,<br />

a check is raised for actual number of guests or<br />

guaranteed number of guests, whichever is higher. <strong>This</strong><br />

area offers considerable scope of revenue leakage.<br />

Therefore, it is important to employ proper<br />

administrative and accounting controls at this point.<br />

Since determination of figure of actual number of guests<br />

is very difficult, the easiest method of controlling could<br />

be to make plate count as the uniform basis of charge<br />

as plates are issued from kitchen stewarding stores,<br />

proper record of plates issued to the banquet hall and<br />

the receipt of unutilized plates should be properly kept.<br />

A person from Food & Beverages department should<br />

be present at every banquet to supervise laying down<br />

of the plates. The accounting control in this area would<br />

be to determine the cost percentage of a banquet and<br />

its comparison with standard cost percentage.<br />

The procedure for recording Other Sales (i.e.,<br />

non-banquet Food & Beverages sales) is similar to that of<br />

Food & Beverages sales. First, raising of a check, its<br />

recording by cashier in the summary sheet and subsequent<br />

recording in Night Clerk’s white report. Here too there are<br />

certain operational ratios which help in understanding of<br />

operational effectiveness of the hotel :<br />

Capacity Utilization ratio = Meals served/Total capacity<br />

Average per check = Total Sales/Number of Checks<br />

Average per cover = Total Sales/Number of persons<br />

These averages can be compared with standards<br />

laid down, if any, and, in case of a falling trend, reasons<br />

are to be traced and corrective actions taken thereof.<br />

(iii) Miscellaneous Income : <strong>This</strong> part covers<br />

various other incomes such as laundry income,<br />

telephone income, parking income, income by way of<br />

letting out a banquet hall etc. A summary sheet is<br />

prepared which records receipt no. and the amount<br />

received—as normally these are cash sales except for<br />

those relating to in-house guests of the hotel.<br />

Finally, all type of sales are recorded in the Green<br />

Report prepared by the Night Clerks as the Green<br />

report is a summary of the day regarding sales at<br />

different outlets, both cash and credit sales, and<br />

amount to be transferred to the City Ledger and<br />

amount yet to be transferred to the City Ledger. The<br />

figure of Room revenue comes from Night Clerk’s<br />

Report and that of Food & Beverages income comes<br />

from White Report of the Night Clerk, and that<br />

relating to miscellaneous income from summary<br />

sheets of Miscellaneous Income.<br />

Management of credit transactions<br />

Proper accounting of all credit sales along with<br />

proper monitoring is the part of credit management.<br />

As far as in-house guests are concerned, their folio is<br />

transferred to Credit department for entry in City<br />

Ledger only when they have checked out. The amount<br />

due from such guests usually appears in Green Report<br />

of Night Clerk. At the end of the month, amount due<br />

from in-house guest who are yet to check out would<br />

be incorporated in the General Ledger on the basis of<br />

the Green Report of the last day of the previous month<br />

and its details be prepared by the Front Office/Night<br />

Clerk. Since different folios are maintained for various<br />

types of customers such as Credit Card Agencies,<br />

Travel Agencies, Airlines, Corporate Clients, Staff and<br />

others, there is a master folio which is also prepared<br />

—it is simply a summary of all the folios taken<br />

together and is prepared on daily basis.<br />

Management of cash transactions<br />

Cash at restaurants and bars is collected by the<br />

cashiers deputed at those outlets. The amount so<br />

collected is reported as cash sales in the Cashier<br />

summary sheets which comes to the Night Clerk who<br />

checks and total the same. Apart from this, cash is<br />

also collected at the front office from the guests of the<br />

hotel for which an imprest is maintained at the front<br />

office to meet such requirements of the foreign guests.<br />

Front office Cash Report is also prepared on a daily<br />

basis, and the cash so collected, along with the said<br />

report, comes to the back office on a daily basis. The<br />

money so collected in the form of Foreign Exchange<br />

cannot be utilized in any way and are to be deposited<br />

by an authorized person by the Reserve Bank of India.<br />

Consumption Analysis<br />

Consumption analysis is carried out of Food &<br />

Beverages department. As the inventory records of<br />

Food & Beverages are maintained by this department,<br />

every Food & Beverage material requisition comes to<br />

this department. The material requisition slip bears<br />

the name of the outlet to which materials are to be<br />

issued. Thus the inventory records are updated<br />

automatically. For costing purposes, there are separate<br />

cost centres. Total food consumption as well as<br />

beverage consumption for all outlets are computed<br />

separately. Thereafter, food cost percentage and<br />

beverage cost percentage are computed as :<br />

Food cost % = (Food consumption *100)/Food sales<br />

Beverage cost % = (Beverage consumption *100)/<br />

Beverage sales.<br />

These percentages are then compared with<br />

standard food and beverage cost percentage. The days<br />

when food cost percentage and beverage cost<br />

percentage are high are analyzed and reasons sorted<br />

out for the same. Similarly at the end of the month,<br />

food cost percentage and beverage cost percentage<br />

are computed. For the monthly figures, due account<br />

is taken of inventory in kitchen/bars & restaurants,<br />

both at the beginning as well at the end of the month,<br />

by the process of physical verification of various items.<br />

Likewise, another important cost control technique<br />

is determination of actual consumption of food and<br />

beverages and its comparison with that of the<br />

standard consumption determined earlier. For any<br />

abnormal variations, reasons are to be sorted out and<br />

necessary steps to be taken so that the same can be<br />

avoided, as far as possible, in future.<br />

Since all the items which are served in the<br />

restaurants have got standard recipes, the computer<br />

can be programmed in such a way that at the end of<br />

the day it can give details of physical quantity sold<br />

for all the items forming part of the menu. On the<br />

basis of the quantity sold and standard menus,<br />

standard quantity of raw materials consumed can be<br />

evaluated which should be compared with actual<br />

consumption of raw materials. If this difference is<br />

abnormal, reasons for the same must be sorted out.<br />

CMAs are better placed compared to other<br />

professionals in hospitality management.<br />

CMAs can play vital role to<br />

● Act as chief financial controller of the institution;<br />

● To get the records maintained as desired by the<br />

industry;<br />

● Employ proper administrative and accounting<br />

controls to limit the revenue leakage;<br />

● Establish cost guidelines and benchmarks to<br />

assist in analyzing variances at different levels;<br />

● Make most efficient use of all the available<br />

information for revenue budget and monitoring;<br />

● Develop tools for analysis and decision making<br />

at every stage of operation;<br />

● Constantly improve the process to monitor time<br />

spent on non-value added tasks;<br />

● Act as a guide to all those involved in the<br />

process at every stage of operation;<br />

● Assess cost-benefit analysis at various time<br />

intervals;<br />

As discussed earlier, CMAs play a crucial role at<br />

each stage in the institution to ensure the long term<br />

viability and constant profitability of the business. ❐<br />

COST COST COST ACCOUNTING<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

A<br />

major challenge for the continued viability<br />

of hospitals is the development of relevant<br />

and accurate cost information based on which<br />

strategic, pricing and management decisions can be<br />

made. In India, health care financing is increasingly<br />

getting more complex with the rapid advances in the<br />

medical technology in the last one decade. <strong>This</strong> had<br />

led the hospitals with high percentage of fixed costs,<br />

owing to buying of advanced medical equipments and<br />

setting up of laboratories. Hospitals need to shift their<br />

focus from treating illness of individual patients to<br />

managing the overall health status of the enrolled<br />

patients throughout the continuum of care (Ralph and<br />

Ramsey, 1994).<br />

In the light of the prevailing and future health care<br />

trends, a hospital’s cost accounting system should<br />

serve three purposes:<br />

(a) promoting cost efficiency without compromising<br />

the service quality<br />

(b) allow the hospitals to maximise its resources<br />

through product and service line management<br />

(c) highlight the opportunities for continuous<br />

improvement of the hospital’s operations.<br />

In order to achieve the above, cost efficiency,<br />

product and service line management and continuous<br />

improvement hospital needs to consider implementing<br />

Activity Based Costing (ABC) system.<br />

Activity Based Costing<br />

Activity Based Costing—popularly known as ABC<br />

represents an opportunity to detail indirect costs for<br />

specific activities. It is an extremely valuable tool in<br />

financial decision making process, especially in the<br />

health care segments. The ABC is an approach to<br />

determine the costs of products (patients) or product<br />

lines (groups of similar patients). <strong>This</strong> method of<br />

costing improves the accuracy of determining the<br />

costs by more accurately assigning overhead costs on<br />

a cause-and-effect basis. <strong>This</strong> method of costing is<br />

useful for health care industries as they accurately<br />

determine the cost drivers of each element of a<br />

particular procedure.<br />

Activity is the process or procedures that cause<br />

work to be performed within an organisation. An<br />

Application of Activity Based Costing<br />

N. Sivasankaran**<br />

activity represents unique combination of inputs (i.e.<br />

people, technology, materials) brought together to<br />

produce outputs (i.e. products or services). For<br />

instance, in the hospital setting, surgical procedures<br />

performed in operation theatres (OT) represent<br />

activities. The inputs are medical personnel (surgeons,<br />

anaesthesiologists, nurses) or technology (patient<br />

monitoring equipment, life supporting systems) and<br />

surgical supplies (latex gloves, gauze pads, and<br />

bandages) are combined for the successful patient<br />

outcomes.<br />

To ensure how well is the activity being performed<br />

we need to do an activity analysis in terms of total<br />

cost, time, or quality. In other words, activity analysis<br />

helps the hospital to identify value-added versus nonvalue<br />

added activities. So from that information, the<br />

hospital can simplify, improve or eliminate activities<br />

and processes.<br />

Continuous improvement is possible by means of<br />

identifying the factors that drive costs. A cost driver<br />

is any event that causes a change in the total cost of<br />

an activity. Cost driver by their very nature indicate<br />

where action or change is required for further<br />

improvement.<br />

What ABC Can Do for Hospitals?<br />

As documented earlier, ABC would help hospitals<br />

in the promotion of cost-efficient operations and in<br />

the management of product and service lines. If a<br />

hospital’s cost estimates are too high or too low, it<br />

risks making incorrect and, perhaps, disastrous<br />

business decisions. By providing more accurate costs,<br />

ABC system improves the decision made regarding<br />

case mix, procedure utilisation and pricing. <strong>This</strong><br />

system also identifies the activities that need<br />

improvement. To improve the management of any<br />

activity successfully, the hospitals must understand<br />

the activity’s resource consumption, outputs and<br />

quality of performance. From support and sustaining<br />

activities (i.e. meal preparation, facilities management)<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

to primary activities (i.e. complex procedure, nursing<br />

care, laboratory tests)—ABC would provide these<br />

information to hospitals. Used in these entire manner,<br />

ABC goes beyond acting as an accounting system to<br />

serving as a strategic management tool (Cooper and<br />

Kaplan 1990).<br />

Application of ABC for a Hospital’s Radiology<br />

Department<br />

Today’s hospital radiology department often<br />

encompasses, in addition to traditional in-patient and<br />

out-patient diagnostic X-ray imaging, advanced<br />

procedures such as nuclear medicine, computerassisted<br />

tomographic (CAT) scanning, and magnetic<br />

resonance imaging. Within this operating environment,<br />

the ability to effectively schedule procedures is<br />

crucial to maximizing the use of high-price equipment,<br />

elaborately configured facilities, and highly trained<br />

personnel. To enhance or optimize operations in the<br />

radiology department, one can perform an activity<br />

analysis.<br />

According to Baptist (1987), there are variety of,<br />

reasons why improved costing procedures like ABC<br />

are needed for ancillary departments such as<br />

radiology. The traditional use of cost-to-charge ratios<br />

to determine procedure cost and profitability has<br />

proved to be inaccurate. There has been very little<br />

relationship between procedure costs to charges in<br />

the past. In-accurate cost basis makes it nearly<br />

impossible to establish competitive procedure prices.<br />

In today’s re-imbursement environment, it is critical<br />

that a hospital’s procedure price be accurately related<br />

to its cost. Accurate cost information helps hospitals<br />

to achieve greater efficiency and productivity in these<br />

ancillary departments.<br />

Establishing ABC System in Radiology Department<br />

(a) Activity Identification and Design : A basic<br />

premise of cost allocation in ABC is to allocate the<br />

costs according to the activity that caused those costs<br />

to be incurred. <strong>This</strong> process gives an accurate measure<br />

of the consumption of financial resources. The first<br />

step is to list the various groups of activities that make<br />

up the procedure. <strong>This</strong> is known as activity design or<br />

cost drivers and the same is depicted in Exhibit 1 and<br />

let us use this as a starting point to accumulate<br />

information about the costs involved with the<br />

procedure.<br />

(b) Allocation of costs to activities : In health care<br />

there is no conscious way of allocating costs, and costs<br />

and many times costs are allocated as indirect costs<br />

without looking at the cause-and-effect relationship.<br />

The activity cost details (as given in Exhibit B)<br />

identifies the cost driver for each activity, the volume<br />

of cost driver for one ultrasound, the cost per unit of<br />

the cost driver and the total cost per procedure. In<br />

order to compute total costs per procedure we need<br />

to use time, number of patients engaged, and rooms<br />

are the factors used for the various cost drivers.<br />

(c) Computation of total cost per procedure : Cost<br />

is identified by looking at purchase of materials, pay<br />

roll and other expenses data. In the activity cost detail<br />

(Exhibit 2), the cost per unit is the aggregated detail<br />

of cost information pertaining to one unit of the cost<br />

driver factor. For instance, for the activity like<br />

provision of care and testing in the laboratory, this<br />

includes educating the patient for the exam. So, cost<br />

driver for the activity is the labour time, which we<br />

can cost by the factors of minutes. The cost per unit—<br />

the labour cost (cost driver) per minute (cost factor).<br />

Like this, all costs are added to identify the total cost<br />

per procedure.<br />

(d) Fixed cost consideration : Fixed costs included<br />

in the overhead are spread to the ultrasound<br />

procedures. The fixed cost would remain whether we<br />

would perform ultrasound or not. It is appropriate to<br />

include these costs accurately in the cost detail. For<br />

instance, we assumed that a doctor can see<br />

approximately XX patients per day with one clinical<br />

support staff. Hence, we are considering the labour<br />

time of the receptionists, billing and occupancy costs<br />

as fixed cost only.<br />

Conclusion<br />

To conclude—whether hospital administrators and<br />

department managers classify their methods and<br />

techniques as ABC or not does not matter. What is<br />

important is that they recognize and understand that<br />

the principles of ABC (i.e. activity analysis, cost<br />

drivers) should be embraced for what they can<br />

provide namely, improved cost efficiency, enhanced<br />

product line management, and increase opportunities<br />

for continuous improvement. Used in these ways,<br />

ABC goes beyond just a costing system to being a<br />

strategic management tool. ❐<br />

COST COST ACCOUNTING<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

The long term financial success of any business<br />

depends on whether its prices exceed its costs<br />

by enough to finance growth, provide for<br />

reinvestment, and yield a satisfactory return to its<br />

stakeholders. As competition increases, and supply<br />

exceeds demand, market forces influence prices<br />

significantly more. To achieve a sufficient margin over<br />

its costs, a company must manage those costs relative<br />

to the prices the market allows or the price the firm sets<br />

to achieve certain market penetration objectives. The<br />

problem that firms face is that the prices are set by the<br />

market forces and the shareholders decide profits.<br />

Therefore firms have no other option but to set the cost<br />

and have to achieve that cost. In the context of these<br />

characteristics, the practice of target costing has<br />

evolved.<br />

Target costing is a fundamentally different way to<br />

look at the relationship of prices and costs. The basic<br />

target equation of “Price—Profit Margin = Cost”<br />

means that prices are driven and set either by<br />

competitive market forces or by the firm as it<br />

aggressively lowers its prices to increase market<br />

penetration; that profit margins are established such<br />

that the firm can make money; and that allowable<br />

costs are derived from price and margin. <strong>This</strong> method<br />

was pioneered by Toyota in the 1960s to achieve high<br />

quality and desirable features at a competitive price.<br />

Target costing is a design approach in which a<br />

company designs a product to achieve a desired profit<br />

while satisfying the customers expectations for quality<br />

and product features. The target costing (TC) practice<br />

(genka-kikaku in Japanese) seeks to bridge the gap<br />

between the cost determined through market research<br />

(i.e., what the customer is willing to pay) and the cost<br />

at which the firm can supply its product, given the<br />

firm’s technology and the state of its accumulated<br />

knowledge, without compromising its profitability.<br />

The balancing of costs, features and quality takes place<br />

throughout the design, manufacturing, sale and<br />

service though it target costing has the strongest<br />

influence during the design phase as the cost<br />

consequences of manufacturing method and features<br />

selected are mostly determined during the design<br />

phase of the product.<br />

Supply Chain Management : A<br />

Strategic Perspective<br />

The allowable cost is the total product cost which<br />

the firm has to achieve and is dictated by consumer<br />

willingness to pay and market competition.<br />

The desired profit margin is driven by corporate<br />

strategic profit planning. In reality, the allowable cost<br />

might not be achievable in the short run, and the target<br />

cost is revised upward. The target cost estimate is first<br />

determined based on the best estimate of the future<br />

product’s costs and compared with the target cost,<br />

and the gap constitutes the subject of the costreduction<br />

program. The excess of the estimated cost<br />

over the target cost is reduced by management tools<br />

like value engineering. For example, the current cost<br />

estimates of the final product may be INR 100,000<br />

while the target cost determined through market<br />

research and strategic analysis may be INR 80,000<br />

which leads to a target cost reduction of Rs 20,000 ie<br />

20%. The same is achieved by decomposing the gap<br />

into cost reduction targets for various business<br />

functions. Each function then redesigns its component<br />

of the product or re-engineers the manufacturing and/<br />

or logistics process (i.e., JIT = just-in-time) to achieve<br />

the desired target cost estimate. The redesigning<br />

process is called value engineering, which is basically<br />

concerned with looking for alternatives to designing<br />

product with the same or greater level of quality/<br />

functionality while reducing the cost. The process<br />

undergoes numerous iterations before the final<br />

product can be produced within the targeted cost.<br />

Supply Chain Management (SCM) : is a logistics<br />

network which consists of suppliers, manufacturing<br />

centers, warehouses, distribution centers and retail<br />

outlets as well as raw materials, work-in-process<br />

inventory and finished goods that flow between the<br />

facilities. SCM is also defined as a set of approaches<br />

utilized to efficiently integrate suppliers, manufac-<br />

turers, warehouses and stores so that merchandise is<br />

produced and distributed at the right quantities, to<br />

the right locations, and at the right time, in order to<br />

minimize system-wide costs while satisfying service<br />

level requirements. According to the Council of<br />

Supply Chain Management Professionals (CSCMP),<br />

supply chain management encompasses the planning<br />

and management of all activities involved in sourcing,<br />

procurement, conversion, and logistics management.<br />

It also includes the crucial components of coordination<br />

and collaboration with channel partners, which can<br />

be suppliers, intermediaries, third-party service<br />

providers, and customers. In essence, supply chain<br />

management integrates supply and demand<br />

management within and across companies.<br />

Supply Chain Management (SCM) and Target<br />

Cost : An integration<br />

The management decides whether increased<br />

functionalities are to be provided at the same cost or<br />

same functionalities are to be provided at a reduced<br />

cost. If the firm has positioned itself as a cost leader,<br />

then the firm will have to focus on attaining target<br />

cost. But if the firm has positioned itself as a<br />

differentiator, then it will focus more on functionalities<br />

than on cost. Once target cost is decided, then it cannot<br />

be achieved without incorporating it in each step of<br />

supply) chain. As can be seen that all supply chain<br />

management have three components: suppliers,<br />

producers and customers. As the various components<br />

of supply chain are integrated, increase of costs of a<br />

portion of the chain will increase costs of other<br />

components too and, as a result, overall cost of the<br />

product/service will increase. Therefore, cost<br />

management must be done in all the components of<br />

the supply chain and, it must be ensured that cost<br />

management is done—and also value is added—in<br />

each activity of the chain. Thus SCM takes into account<br />

every facility that has an impact on cost and ensures<br />

that the product conforms to customer requirements.<br />

The objective of SCM is to be efficient and cost<br />

effective across the entire system—taking into account<br />

total system-wide costs from transportation and<br />

distribution to inventories of raw materials, work in<br />

process, and finished goods. SCM strategies are directly<br />

affected by the development chain which is defined as<br />

the set of activities and processes associated with new<br />

product introduction. It includes decision on product<br />

design, i.e., product architecture, what to make<br />

internally and what to outsource, supplier selection,<br />

early supplier involvement and strategic partnerships.<br />

Thus decisions taken during the development chain<br />

would impact the supply chain and the characteristics<br />

of the supply chain would impact product design<br />

strategy and thus the development chain.<br />

Though SCM and development chain are closely<br />

linked and affect each other, organization structures<br />

limit the scope for an integrated approach. For<br />

example. Vice President (VP) of engineering would<br />

be responsible for the development chain, VP of<br />

manufacturing for the production chain, and VP of<br />

supply chain or logistics for the fulfillment of customer<br />

demand, leading to a misalignment of product design<br />

and supply chain strategies as there would be<br />

conflicting objectives and trade-offs which would not<br />

be resolved. The VP for a manufacturer of a car model<br />

might not wish to increase the production run in times<br />

of excess demand putting a strain on dealers who<br />

would face increased waiting times and stock outs<br />

leading to cancellations and/or poor word of mouth<br />

publicity affecting the VP of supply chain’s<br />

performance. Similarly, while designing a new car<br />

model, the development team may reduce certain<br />

features to reduce product cost requiring without<br />

taking into account its impact on the logistics or supply<br />

chain leading to higher costs of transportation or<br />

storage. The same approach also overlooks<br />

opportunities for cost reduction in the supply chain<br />

which may give the design team more flexibility in<br />

meeting their cost targets. A decision may be taken<br />

whether to outsource a particular part or to<br />

manufacture it in house.<br />

Thus, integrating the supply chain, the development<br />

chain and the production chain while practicing<br />

target costing would be much more effective in<br />

meeting the company’s strategic objectives. Coordination<br />

is extremely important here. Therefore,<br />

while target costing may serve as a solution when<br />

developing new products, minimizing costs through<br />

the optimal use of all resources along the entire supply<br />

chain would be a better strategy. The current practice<br />

involves use of Target costing to reduce costs by<br />

involving suppliers and manufacturers as contributors<br />

to the design process, thereby focusing the entire chain<br />

toward the overarching goal of eliminating costly<br />

waste, excess, and unevenness. The supply chain<br />

partners can also consider costs of reclamation and<br />

disposal of products after their useful life in a total,<br />

closed-loop life cycle costing model.<br />

Thus, adoption of target costing approach across<br />

the supply chain would involve selecting the most<br />

appropriate product development and process<br />

technologies, minimizing the complexities of productlines,<br />

eliminating cost overruns, limiting design<br />

problems and delivering the lowest priced highest<br />

valued product to the final customer. Other trends<br />

prevalent in the industry include value engineering,<br />

parts standardization, and a sharing of knowledge<br />

along the supply chain.<br />

To take the example of People’s car—Tata Nano<br />

in which Cost and waste was driven out of supply<br />

chains by reducing inventory, eliminating waiting<br />

times and delays, increasing utilization of warehouse<br />

and trucks, optimizing location of warehouses and<br />

plants, drawing up the optimum transportation<br />

network, utilizing backhauls etc. Reducing inventory<br />

reduced the working capital cost, warehousing costs<br />

and obsolescence costs. To reduce inventory, demand<br />

fluctuation was reduced, reliability of inventory<br />

replenishment was increased, supply chain length was<br />

reduced.<br />

Reducing supply chain times reduced inventory<br />

and increased responsiveness. To eliminate waiting<br />

times and delays the complete supply chain process<br />

was mapped. For this a lead time map was used.<br />

Delays like waiting for loading or unloading and<br />

waiting for documents was minimized. Transit time<br />

was reduced. Truck utilization was improved by using<br />

truck optimization software. Similarly, warehouse<br />

space was utilized more efficiently by increasing<br />

storage height—by increasing the rack heights or<br />

having a mezzanine.<br />

On a strategic level, Supply Chain Network<br />

Design-locating plants, contract manufacturers,<br />

Distribution Centres and warehouses—all are<br />

important because 70% of the cost of a supply chain<br />

is fixed at the design stage. So Tata Nano has created<br />

a breakthrough in car manufacture by reducing the<br />

cost of a car significantly by strategically managing<br />

cost at each level of supply chain.<br />

Conclusion<br />

It is known that strategic cost management contains<br />

supply chain analysis, strategic positioning analysis<br />

and cost driver analysis. By evaluating each of these,<br />

management will be able to better manage and<br />

understand costs. Supply chain analysis manages the<br />

flow of information and products from earliest supplier<br />

to the ultimate consumer. Strategic positioning analysis<br />

analyses the value proposition of the company, i.e., cost<br />

leadership and product differen-tiation. Cost driver<br />

analysis decides what processes or transactions create<br />

costs in the supply chain. After deciding on the strategic<br />

positioning, the firm can integrate cost driver analysis<br />

along with supply chain analysis to achieve sustainable<br />

competitive advantage. ❐<br />

PROJECT PROJECT MANAGEMENT<br />

MANAGEMENT<br />

Preparing the Basis of Estimate for a Project<br />

On the Monday morning meeting Subimol’s<br />

boss, the Project Manager, commented—”Do<br />

you remember the estimate you prepared for<br />

me a few months ago? Well the project is way over<br />

budget.” Subimol’s immediate reaction is one of<br />

anguish as his estimates are always carefully prepared<br />

and contain appropriate details, supported by history,<br />

and accompanied by a well-documented basis of<br />

estimate.<br />

Later on Subimol discovered that instead of being<br />

months old, the estimate in question was actually<br />

prepared over a year before the meeting; and with a<br />

little effort he located all of the documentation that<br />

was saved in a project estimate file. Everything is<br />

there, including all of the technical documents,<br />

applicable project plans and schedules, and, of course,<br />

the basis of estimate. A meeting was conducted to<br />

review the basis of estimate and to reconcile the<br />

estimate with the project’s actual execution and costs.<br />

It was found that scope has changed and different<br />

drawings were used for construction, alternate<br />

subcontractors were employed, and the quotation for<br />

a major equipment significantly differed from that<br />

used in the estimate. All of this had been well<br />

documented in the basis of estimate, but had been<br />

ignored or deviated during project execution.<br />

Keeping in mind that projects vary in scope, time,<br />

value, complexity, intent, and nature, this article<br />

describes the content and major sections of a basis of<br />

estimate.<br />

First let us discuss the cost estimating process in<br />

brief. There are three main parts to the cost estimating<br />

process. The first part of the cost estimating process<br />

is called Project Definition. In this part, the estimator<br />

clarifies the reason for the estimate, defines<br />

expectations, and elaborates the project that will be<br />

estimated. A Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) and<br />

technical description are obtained. These items help<br />

define the project and form the basis for the estimate.<br />

These steps may be revisited as new information is<br />

obtained during the estimating process. Second part<br />

of the cost estimating process, the Cost Methodology,<br />

includes tasks that create the approach and framework<br />

for the estimate. Developing the ground rules and<br />

assumptions will be the most revisited task in this<br />

part of the process. As methodologies are selected and<br />

the data is gathered, the ground rules and assumptions,<br />

methodologies, and even the cost model may<br />

Subir Chakrabarty*<br />

be refined if found necessary. Third part of the cost<br />

estimating process, the Estimate, has tasks that<br />

include the actual conduct, presentation, and<br />

maintenance of the cost estimate. These tasks are<br />

important and critical for a complete estimate.<br />

Basis of Estimate is a method of documenting the<br />

critical aspects of a project cost estimate for the<br />

purpose of reducing project cost risk. A basis of<br />

estimate should be sufficiently complete such that cost<br />

estimating professionals can use the documentation<br />

by itself. A well-written basis of estimate will achieve<br />

those goals by clearly stating the purpose of the<br />

estimate being prepared, the project scope, pricing<br />

basis, allowances, assumptions, exclusions, cost risks<br />

and opportunities, and any deviations from standard<br />

practices. It is also a documented record of pertinent<br />

conversations that have occurred and agreements that<br />

have been made between the estimator and other<br />

members of the project team. The basis of estimate<br />

conveys to the owner and members of the project team<br />

that the estimator understands the problem, the<br />

proposed solution, and cost of that particular solution.<br />

There may be multiple solutions to the problem in<br />

which case the estimator must understand each and<br />

every alternative and the resulting costs. .<br />

The contents of the basis of estimate shall be<br />

established by the estimator and approved by Project<br />

Manager. Based on the requirement for a major<br />

feasibility study, the basis of estimate may include<br />

the following: (i) capital cost definition, (ii) scope/<br />

battery limits, (iii) estimate base date, (iv) accuracy<br />

requirement, (v) estimating responsibilities, (vi)<br />

estimate work breakdown structure and cost coding<br />

system, (vii) electronic system(s) used to compile the<br />

estimate, (viii) estimating methodology including<br />

overall philosophy, schedule basis, source documentation,<br />

contracting plan, mining, mechanical<br />

equipment, structural steelwork, plate work and<br />

liners, piping, insulation, refractory, and electrical,<br />

(ix) control & instrumentation, (x) civil works, (xi)<br />

building, (xi) corrosion (e.g. cathodic) protection, (xii)<br />

transport, (xiii) preliminary and general costs , (xiv)<br />

contractors’ camp, (xv) installation & commissioning,<br />

(xvi) current assets (consumable and insurance stores),<br />

(xvii) project insurance, (xviii) project management<br />

(xxxi) cash flow forecast, (xxxii) exclusions, (xxxiii)<br />

assumptions, and (xxxiv) comparison with earlier<br />

estimates about similar projects.<br />

As the project estimate is being developed, all<br />

potential cost risks should be recorded. During the<br />

preparation of a project estimate, the estimator may<br />

encounter a number of items that could present<br />

potential cost risk to the project. The list of cost risks<br />

may include such things as unquoted equipment,<br />

unidentified engineering or construction resources,<br />

potential labor issues (such as looming strikes or<br />

shortage of qualified labor), unknown site conditions,<br />

etc. All of these risks should be clearly identified<br />

within the basis of estimate to ensure that’all project<br />

team members are made aware of their existence.<br />

Documentation is a key element in good estimating<br />

practice. The estimate file should be a well-organized,<br />

easy to follow history from the first estimate at the<br />

beginning of the planning phase through preparation<br />

of the final estimate. The basis of estimate document<br />

contains recommended organization, topics and<br />

format. Each estimate should track changes from the<br />

previous estimate, updating the scope, assumptions,<br />

quantity and price calculations, and risks from the<br />

previous estimate. At each update the differences<br />

between the previous estimate and the current<br />

estimate should be highlighted. <strong>This</strong> contributes to<br />

transparency and accountability in estimating and<br />

promotes the consistency between estimates.<br />

Several techniques can be employed to ensure<br />

good documentation. It is recommended that<br />

estimating be specifically scheduled in the project<br />

management plan for each phase of the project. <strong>This</strong><br />

ensures that adequate time and resources are allotted<br />

for performing the estimate. A specific schedule<br />

should be developed for each estimate. As part of the<br />

estimate review process, someone external to the<br />

project team should perform a review of the estimate<br />

file. <strong>This</strong> external review will help ensure that the<br />

estimator has clearly recorded the assumptions and<br />

decisions made in the estimating process.<br />

A well prepared basis of estimate will (i) document<br />

the overall project scope, (ii) document the items that<br />

are excluded from the project scope, (iii) document<br />

the key project assumptions, (iv) communicate the<br />

estimator’s knowledge of the project by demonstrating<br />

an understanding of scope and schedule as it<br />

relates to cost, (v) alert the project team to potential<br />

cost risks and opportunities, (vi) provide a record of<br />

key communications made during estimate<br />

preparation, (vii) provide a record of all documents<br />

used to prepare the estimate, (viii) act as a source of<br />

support during dispute resolutions and for bid<br />

analysis, (ix) establish the initial baseline for scope,<br />

quantities and cost for use in cost trend evaluation<br />

throughout the project, (x) provide the historical<br />

relationships between estimates throughout the<br />

project lifecycle, (xi) facilitate the review and<br />

validation of the cost estimate.<br />

The following sections should be included in the<br />

basis of estimate document :<br />

i. Project objective and overview: <strong>This</strong> initial<br />

section provides a brief and concise description of the<br />

project. We may include all the following project<br />

information within that description - the purpose, the<br />

physical location, the position of the project within<br />

the organizational structure, the sponsors of the<br />

project, and the expected start and finish dates.<br />

ii. Project scope description : <strong>This</strong> section should<br />

be organized to correspond with the project’s work<br />

breakdown structure (WBS). A brief description of<br />

the scope of work should be provided for the major<br />

segments of the project. We should select the major<br />

WBS items that will apply to the estimate to be<br />

prepared and list for each the WBS number, task/<br />

item title, period of performance, and detailed<br />

description including related trades.<br />

iii. Estimate base sources : The base sources i.e.<br />

the design basis, planning basis, and cost basis are<br />

the referenced documentation that forms the<br />

foundation for the estimate. For short items, we may<br />

copy the information to the BOE. For larger items,<br />

we should provide references to documents. The<br />

listing against each item may include its name, brief<br />

description, and document number. We should also<br />

mention the primary estimating methodology that will<br />

be used to prepare the cost estimate.<br />

iv. Design basis : In this section, the estimator will<br />

identify the types and status of engineering and design<br />

deliverables that were provided to prepare the<br />

estimate including any design basis assumptions. We<br />

should record the items that will be used to form the<br />

estimate e.g. drawings, requirements, operational<br />

concept documents, specifications, equipment and<br />

tools, and the deliverables.<br />

v. Planning basis : <strong>This</strong> section documents the<br />

project management, engineering, design, procurement,<br />

fabrication, and construction approaches to the<br />

PROJECT PROJECT MANAGEMENT<br />

MANAGEMENT<br />

project. The contracting and resource strategies<br />

should be identified, as well as any assumptions that<br />

were made with regard to the workweek schedule<br />

(hours worked per day, days worked per week, shifts<br />

worked per day, night/day work, etc.) and planned<br />

use of overtime. Any assumptions made regarding<br />

constructability, modularization, use of specialized<br />

construction equipment should also be noted here.<br />

vi. Cost basis : <strong>This</strong> section describes the methods<br />

and sources used to determine the cost for each listed<br />

item e.g. pricing source and methodology for all<br />

contracting agency costs (project management,<br />

engineering, design, etc.); mobilization costs and<br />

percentage used; tax rates as applicable; escalation<br />

indices used, and the method of calculation; allowance<br />

development and basis; location factors used and the<br />

basis for these factors; influence of local market<br />

conditions; and any other pricing factors or external<br />

influences that may have a significant impact on<br />

project cost. The cost methods typically used are<br />

catalogue price, vendor’s quotation, parametric<br />

estimate, detailed breakdown of time, labour,<br />

materials & other heads, analogy estimate, and<br />

“engineering judgment”.<br />

The project cost estimating techniques that are<br />

commonly used are (a) analogous estimation,<br />

(b) resource cost rates estimation, and (c) bottom-up<br />

estimation.<br />

Analogous Estimation: In this type of estimation,<br />

estiihates from a closed project are used to determine<br />

the estimates for the new project. The accuracy of<br />

analogous estimates is dependent on the similarities<br />

between the two projects.<br />

Resource Cost Rates Estimating: Resources are<br />

required in every project. By applying the resource<br />

cost rates to the estimate activity resources process,<br />

we can determine the total cost for the resources on a<br />

project. <strong>This</strong> type of estimation is often used in<br />

projects.<br />

Bottom-up Estimating : In the bottom-up<br />

estimation technique, we aggregate individual<br />

estimates for each task in the work breakdown<br />

structure (WBS) up till the summary node on the WBS.<br />

We then perform this calculation for all activities.<br />

Bottom-up estimation is fairly accurate and is possibly<br />

the most often used estimation technique for deriving<br />

the cost estimates.<br />

vii. Allowances : <strong>This</strong> section describes any other<br />

costs that have not been detailed in the body of the<br />

estimate, such as lump sum allowances for specific<br />

areas of the scope or any other factored costs not<br />

described elsewhere in the estimate basis. Allowance<br />

funds are typically meant to cover a variety of possible<br />

events and problems that have been identified but not<br />

specifically quantified. They can also be used to<br />

account for a lack of project definitions during the<br />

preparation of planning estimates. Typical allowances<br />

include intentional overbuying to make-up<br />

contingencies, expected advances for equipment,<br />

technology or process that is over specified for<br />

predicted changes.<br />

viii. Assumptions : Any assumptions made by the<br />

estimator but not documented elsewhere in the<br />

estimate basis should be included in this section. <strong>This</strong><br />

ma/ include raw materials costs such as petrol, diesel,<br />

cement, steel, etc. <strong>This</strong> should also include the effect<br />

of job site conditions on labor rates and productivity,<br />

and material/equipment costs; crew/equipment<br />

compositions for major items of work that are<br />

considered “cost drivers” to the overall estimate and<br />

how these composition assumptions translate into unit<br />

rates; sequence-of-work assumptions that may not be<br />

obvious in the accompanying project schedule; traffic<br />

management assumptions; and work calendar<br />

assumptions, to include whether certain work must<br />

be performed at night or on weekends and why this<br />

is the case. Small assumptions can change into major<br />

assumptions throughout the life of a project.<br />

Therefore, it is best to document all assumptions.<br />

ix. Exclusions : In this section, the estimator should<br />

document al! potential items of cost that a reviewer<br />

might associate with the project, but for which no costs<br />

have been included in the estimate. Removal of<br />

hazardous wastes etc. is an example of this. Where a<br />

third party is providing materials or other scope items<br />

to the contractor this should be noted.<br />

x. Exceptions : In this section the estimator should<br />

identify any anomalies or variances to the contracting<br />

agency’s standard estimating practices. The estimator<br />

should document any significant deviations from the<br />

project and/or engineering deliverables normally<br />

required for the applicable level of estimate.<br />

xi. Threats and opportunities : In this section any<br />

areas of the estimate containing significant risks<br />

(threats or opportunities) should be identified. If a<br />

formal risk analysis study has been prepared then it<br />

should be included. In particular, this section should<br />

identify those cost elements that have been identified<br />

with high or very high risk (threat or opportunity)<br />

values. The risk analysis report should be provided<br />

as an attachment to the basis of estimate.<br />

xii. Estimate quality assurance : Since estimate<br />

reviews are the means for testing the quality of the<br />

estimate, this section of the basis of estimate should<br />

identify all estimate reviews that have taken place to<br />

date and any additional reviews that are scheduled<br />

MANAGEMENT<br />

to take place. All review comments or analysis should<br />

be included as an attachment to the basis of estimate.<br />

xiii. Reconciliation : <strong>This</strong> section should provide<br />

an overview of the major differences between the<br />

current estimate and the last published estimate<br />

prepared for this project. Identify the cost impacts due<br />

to scope changes, pricing updates, labor productivity<br />

adjustments, estimate refinement, etc. Also provide<br />

a reconciliation of all reviews preformed and how they<br />

were incorporated into the estimate. A more detailed<br />

reconciliation or cost trending report can be provided<br />

as an additional attachment if necessary.<br />

xiv. Benchmarking : <strong>This</strong> section should document<br />

any comparisons of overall estimate metrics, ratios,<br />

and factors with similar projects, historical data, and<br />

industry data. Projects used in the benchmark<br />

comparisons should be similar in process type and<br />

overall value. If significant variations of the estimated<br />

project costs versus the benchmarks exist, those<br />

inconsistencies should be identified and commented<br />

upon. A more detailed benchmark analysis report may<br />

be included as an attachment to the basis of estimate.<br />

xv. Estimating team : In this final section, all<br />

members of the estimating team should be identified<br />

and their roles and responsibilities defined.<br />

xvi. Attachments : Several supporting documents<br />

will generally be included with the basis of estimate -<br />

(1) estimate deliverables checklist to support<br />

preparation of the estimate in accordance with its<br />

associated estimate classification, and to document<br />

whether certain deliverables were in fact available<br />

during preparation of the estimate; (2) reference<br />

documents e.g. the drawings, manuals, texts, notes,<br />

specifications, and other references used in developing<br />

the estimate; (3) schedule documents e.g. design and<br />

construction schedule, including working days, shift<br />

assumptions, key milestones and critical path<br />

activities, and (4) include any other attachments that<br />

may be necessary or required e.g. reconciliation<br />

report, benchmarking report, risk analysis report,<br />

escalation calculations, etc.<br />

Estimates are prepared at various stages of a<br />

project. While a more detailed estimate will generally<br />

require a more detailed basis of estimate; this is not<br />

always the case. A conceptual estimate will probably<br />

be based on a limited amount of scope definition but<br />

it may require a more detailed basis of estimate. It’s<br />

not uncommon for a basis of estimate for a conceptual<br />

estimate to be more thorough than one prepared for<br />

a more detailed estimate because there are often more<br />

assumptions made at the conceptual stage of a project<br />

that require greater documentation. Conversely, there<br />

may be times when the project definition is so<br />

complete or simplistic that a basis of estimate does<br />

not require a great amount of detail. In the latter case,<br />

a three or four page document may be sufficient to<br />

convey the basis of estimate. Other factors that may<br />

affect the level of detail in a basis of estimate are the<br />

projects work breakdown structure, consideration for<br />

new technologies, contracting strategy, etc. The basis<br />

of estimate should contain a concise level of detail to<br />

fully support the review of the estimate by those that<br />

have not been a part of the preparation of the estimate.<br />

The basis of estimate provides a definition of the scope<br />

of the project as estimated, and should establish the<br />

basis for change management subsequent to<br />

publication of the estimate. ❐<br />

Introduction<br />

CAPITAL CAPITAL MARKET<br />

MARKET<br />

Since time immemorial, an investment option has<br />

been most discussed. When the world was<br />

exploded with many investment options, Indian<br />

market is still lagging far behind. The option available<br />

in Indian investment market is very less as compared<br />

to other foreign markets. In other financial countries,<br />

Investment Banking and Asset Management<br />

companies have catered many options to the investors.<br />

In the mist of debt instrument there are many<br />

securities linked instrument which has come lately.<br />

One among the other options which need to be<br />

explored and should be an integral part of the<br />

investments is the Exchange Traded Fund (ETF).<br />

In India, most investors opt for shares, which are<br />

ownership interest in a corporation, or financial asset<br />

which can be traded on stock exchanges like NSE, BSE<br />

etc. and can be traded through the brokerage firm, as<br />

one of the major options. According to Wikipedia—BSE<br />

is “the equity market capitalization of the companies<br />

listed on the BSE was US$1.63 trillion as of December<br />

2010, making it the 4th largest stock exchange in Asia<br />

and the 8th largest in the world. The BSE has the largest<br />

number of listed companies in the world.”<br />

Objective<br />

The objective of this paper is to introduce ETF<br />

along with understanding the composition of an ETF<br />

with couple of examples and to explore the<br />

opportunity of the untapped market of ETF in India.<br />

Exchange Traded Fund is security with basket of<br />

stocks that tracks an index, a commodity or a basket<br />

of assets like an index fund, but trades like a stock on<br />

an exchange. ETFs are traded on the net asset value<br />

(NAV value) of the underlying stocks they represent.<br />

It can be traded on the real time.<br />

Literature Review<br />

In 1893, when the first closed-end fund was started<br />

in Belgium no one knew that their will be a massive<br />

change in a century’s time.<br />

Closed-end fund is an investment option with a<br />

limited number of shares. As there are no new shares<br />

issued once the fund is launched reason being there<br />

is normally no redemption of shares until the fund is<br />

liquidated.<br />

Time changed; in 100 years of time closed end fund<br />

evolved to exchange traded fund and the first fund<br />

was launched in 1993.<br />

The first ETF was launched in 1993 by State Street<br />

Global Advisors with SPDR. In Indian market the<br />

presence of ETF is limited to only Gold ETF which was<br />

launched in India in 2007 which tracks the price of gold.<br />

According to the ETF Landscape Global Handbook<br />

from Blackrock Q1 2010 “ETF possess characteristics<br />

that make them an alternative to futures and portfolio<br />

of shares for investors who are seeking to gain or<br />

reduce country, regional, sector and style as well as<br />

fixed income and commodity exposure.”<br />

Commonly traded Index ETFs can be subcategorized<br />

in the following way :<br />

1. Broad Based Equity Index shares : These ETFs<br />

replicates any particular index like NASDAQ<br />

composite index, S&P 500, as well as large/mid or<br />

small cap indices.<br />

2. Sector/Industry Equity Index shares : These ETFs<br />

track indices that are centric to sectors like consumer<br />

goods, energy, financial service, technology, etc.<br />

3. Global/International Equity Index Shares : These<br />

ETFs track indices which are focused on a specific<br />

county or region.<br />

4. Bond Index Shares : These ETFs tracks US<br />

Treasury Bond and corporate indices.<br />

5. Currency Index Shares : <strong>This</strong> type of ETFs<br />

replicated the movement of any particular currency<br />

like Dollar, Yen etc.<br />

6. Bullion/Commodity Index Shares : These ETFs<br />

are used to invest in bullions and so they track the<br />

movements of bullions. Gold ETF is one of the<br />

examples for it.<br />

According to one of the articles ‘‘by IBD staff in<br />

INVESTOR’S BUSINESS DAILY, Liquidity, transparency,<br />

low expenses, breadth of offerings and<br />

favorable tax treatment have helped fuel ETF growth.<br />

ETFs are available that invest in stocks, bonds,<br />

commodities and currencies — even market volatility.<br />

Some are leveraged, geared to move two or three<br />

times as much as their underlying index. Some are<br />

set to move inversely to their index.”<br />

Understanding the creation of ETFs :<br />

Definitions<br />

a. Authorized Participant<br />

Authorized participants (AP) are the entity chosen<br />

by ETF sponsor to undertake the responsibility of<br />

obtaining the underlying assets needed to create an<br />

ETF. These are mostly large institutional organizations<br />

such as market-makers and specialists.<br />

They play a critical role in the construction of an<br />

ETF’s creation unit. After acquiring the underlying<br />

stocks for the creation of ETF, the AP will often need<br />

to transfer the shares to the custodian. Also, AP only<br />

can create or redeem the shares of the ETFs.<br />

b. Creation Unit<br />

It is a set of shares/securities that make up one<br />

unit of a fund held by the trust that underlies an<br />

Exchange Traded Fund (ETF). One creation unit is<br />

the denomination of underlying assets that can be<br />

redeemed for a certain number of ETF shares.<br />

Creation units can vary in size; with most<br />

containing between 25,000 and 600,000 ETF shares<br />

each. The use of creation units in the construction of<br />

ETF shares is critical because they allow for the<br />

representation of the underlying assets—the ETF<br />

shares, which represent a tiny chunk of a creation<br />

share—to be traded intra-day. The ability to trade<br />

ETFs on an exchange gives them a significant<br />

advantage over comparable investment vehicles, such<br />

as mutual funds.<br />

c. Net Asset Value<br />

It is ETFs per share value.<br />

It is calculated by dividing the total value of all<br />

the securities in its portfolio, less any liabilities, by<br />

the number of fund shares outstanding.<br />

d. ETF Sponsor<br />

ETF sponsors are the companies or financial<br />

institutions which create and administers an ETF.<br />

e. Creation Process of the ETF<br />

● The creation process with filing of a plan with<br />

Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to create<br />

an ETF by ETF sponsor or Manager. (In India, the filing<br />

of the plan would typically will be with Securities<br />

Exchange Board of India (SEBI).<br />

● After the plan is approved by SEC, sponsors<br />

form an agreement with an AP—who are typically<br />

the market maker, specialist or large Institutional<br />

Investor—who is able to create or redeem the ETF<br />

shares.<br />

● AP then borrows shares of stock and places them<br />

in a trust to form creation units of the ETF.<br />

● The trust provides shares of the ETF that<br />

represent legal claims on the shares held in the ETF.<br />

The transaction is an in-kind trade where securities<br />

are traded for securities, which means no tax<br />

implications, since there was no cash changing hands.<br />

● Finally, the AP receives the ETF shares, and the<br />

shares are then sold to the public as stocks in the open<br />

market. (Refer Figs. 1 & 2)<br />

Step One<br />

A fund sponsor sets an<br />

investment objective<br />

(e.g., create an ETF that<br />

tracks the S & P 500<br />

index) and develops the<br />

list of the basket<br />

securities that can be<br />

exchanged for ETF<br />

shares.<br />

FUND COMPANY<br />

Step Four<br />

In return for the basket<br />

of securities, the fund<br />

sponsor provides the<br />

participating entities<br />

with a ‘‘creation unit,’’<br />

which can contain<br />

thousands of individual<br />

ETF shares.<br />

Step Two<br />

The fund sponsor forms<br />

participation agreements<br />

with entities that want to<br />

become creation unit<br />

holders (e.g., securities<br />

firm or institutional<br />

adviser).<br />

Step Three<br />

The participating companies<br />

assemble a basket<br />

of securities that contains<br />

shares of every company<br />

listed on the S&P 500<br />

based on their relative<br />

weighting and deposit<br />

the basket of securities<br />

with the fund sponsor.<br />

Step Five<br />

The creation unit holder<br />

can either hold the ETF<br />

shares or sell all or part<br />

of them.<br />

→<br />

Step Six<br />

Retail investors can<br />

purchase the individual<br />

ETF shares through a<br />

MARKET<br />

f. Redemption Process<br />

There are a few ways of redemption of ETF<br />

shares :<br />

● For redemption of ETF, investors may sell shares<br />

on the open market—the more common option for<br />

investors.<br />

● The second option is to hoard enough ETF shares<br />

to form a creation unit and then exchange the creation<br />

unit for an underlying security—the option more<br />

generally associated with institutional investors<br />

because of the large volume of shares required.<br />

● When investors redeem, the creation unit is no<br />

more and the securities are handed over to the<br />

redeemer.<br />

How do ETFs generate returns for investors?<br />

ETFs, as earlier mentioned, are like stocks and are<br />

traded like a stock. So the price of an ETF share<br />

depends on the forces of supply and demand in the<br />

market and on the performance of the underlying<br />

index.<br />

In order to understand ETFs better we tried to give<br />

a brief about couple of ETFs traded in different<br />

exchanges and are a replica of Indian index.<br />

Methodology<br />

The methodology used for was to study the<br />

difference of mutual fund and ETFs. <strong>This</strong> will help<br />

passive investor to make the investment decisions.<br />

Also, a comparative analysis of ETF and shares will<br />

help us know how well are ETFs for active investors.<br />

During the study a sample of two ETF iShares S&P<br />

India Nifty 50 Index Fund and PowerShares India<br />

Portfolio ETF is also taken to understand the<br />

composition of ETFs. The samples taken are the ETFs<br />

traded in US market but are fund based in Indian<br />

Index.<br />

Analysis<br />

Precisely, ETFs are like mutual fund which trades<br />

like a stock. It can be used for speculative trading like<br />

short selling and trading on margin. It has low expense<br />

ratio. Just like a stock it can be traded through<br />

brokerage firm. A commission charge is incurred in<br />

each trading. It gives the opportunity to an investor<br />

to diversify its portfolio.<br />

In mutual fund, whose pool of money is invested<br />

by the fund manager is based on the goals of the funds.<br />

The trading of the different positions is done throughout<br />

the year but the information is published quarterly<br />

i.e. the fund is not transparent but ETFs mention the<br />

details like the sector they have invested and the<br />

equity they are holding—this information is available<br />

at all times.<br />

Second major differencde between mutual fund<br />

and ETFs are that MF can be valued at that day’s<br />

closing price so it cannot be traded throughout the<br />

day unlike ETFs which are constantly valued on their<br />

underlying holdings and are traded on the real time<br />

basis. The last major difference between them is the<br />

annual fee charges. MF tends to charge tentatively<br />

between 1-2% but ETF’s annual charges may be as<br />

low as 0.1%.<br />

Comparative analysis of Shares, ETFs and<br />

traditional managed fund shows that Exchange traded<br />

Funds has the benefit of a stock and a traditional<br />

managed both :<br />

● It has high level of diversification which is<br />

lacking if an investment is done in shares and<br />

is dependable on the type of securities in case<br />

of traditional funds.<br />

● It can be traded on intra-day pricing like a<br />

share, unlike a traditional fund which is traded<br />

on the market close value.<br />

● Liquidity is comparatively high as compared<br />

to shares and funds.<br />

● The ETFs information is very transparent. At<br />

any given point of time an investor can know<br />

all the related information of the ETFs from the<br />

sectors it has invested into to the shares it is<br />

holding.<br />

● It can be used in short selling and limit order<br />

just like a share.<br />

bill because of its diversification it is a less risky<br />

To understand the composition of the ETF we have<br />

taken two ETFs.<br />

iShares S & P India Nifty 50 Index Fund<br />

It is the fund issued by iShares. It seeks investment<br />

results corresponding to price and the yield<br />

performance, before expense and fees, of S&P CNX<br />

Nifty Index.<br />

It is traded in NASDAQ. The inception day of the<br />

fund is 18th November 2009. It has a total of 51 holdings<br />

and the NAV value as on 5th May 2011 was $28.25<br />

and the total Share outstanding is 7,650,000<br />

A detailed overview in terms of its holding and<br />

the sector allocation is mentioned below :<br />

With the help of Fig. 3, we can understand the top<br />

holding of iShares S&P India Nifty 50 Index Fund. The<br />

fund has invested in almost all the good companies or<br />

the companies which are referred to as blue chip<br />

companies. These companies have less risk involved.<br />

Fig. 5<br />

Referring to Fig. 5, we can infer that the fund has<br />

invested mostly in Banks and Automobile Sector<br />

which is the growing industry/sector in India.<br />

As we see from the allocation, the fund has<br />

invested in growing sector like banks, computersoftware<br />

and its top holdings include shares like<br />

Infosys and Reliance—giving the benefit of the all the<br />

good stock with lesser risk.<br />

One of the other examples is Power Shares India<br />

Portfolio ETF.<br />

PowerShares India Portfolio ETF<br />

<strong>This</strong> fund is issued by Powershares. It is based on<br />

Indus India Index. It invests almost 90% of its total<br />

assets in securities that comprise the Index and ADRs<br />

based on the securities on the index. It replicates the<br />

Indian equity markets as a whole. It has a group of 50<br />

Indian stocks selected from the list of largest listed<br />

companies listed on National Stock exchange and<br />

Bombay Stock exchange.<br />

<strong>This</strong> ETF is traded in almost all US stock markets.<br />

The inception date of the fund is 3/5/2008. Its NAV<br />

value and share outstanding as on 5/10/2011 is 23.7MM.<br />

As the above figure compares the movement of<br />

that the movement of the fund Powershares India<br />

Conclusion<br />

Worldwide, there are 2,557 ETFs with 5802 listing<br />

and assets of USD 1,367.4bn from 140 providers on 48<br />

exchanges around the world according to BlackRock’s<br />

latest report. The growth of an ETF has been<br />

Source : BlackRock ETF Landscape 2010<br />

Fig. 9<br />

tremendous since it was first launched in 1993. <strong>This</strong><br />

number is a significant increase from just 130 ETFs in<br />

2002.<br />

In India, first gold ETF was launched by<br />

Benchmark Asset Management Fund in 2007. Since<br />

then there were several companies which issued<br />

variety of gold funds focused on ETF market. India<br />

has eight gold ETFs currently listed with a total<br />

collection of more than 11 tonnes, nearly double<br />

compared to last year.<br />

According to recently released report by BlackRock<br />

ETF Landscape, ETFs have grown by 33.2%, compounded<br />

annually, globally in the past 10 years and<br />

26.1% in the past five years. But India ETFs have not<br />

taken off well till date. Accoding to Association of<br />

Mutual Funds of India (AMfi) ETFs comprise 0.3%<br />

of total industry assets whereas in US it is 9% of<br />

mutual fund Industry. As the commission in ETFs is<br />

comparatively low as compared to shares and mutual<br />

funds, probably that can be cited as major reason of<br />

ETF being not very common in India.<br />

With continuous reforms by SEBI in order to<br />

protect retail investors and to give further investment<br />

avenues, hopefully, Indian market will see a flood of<br />

ETFs pouring in near future.<br />

India is one of the fastest emerging economies<br />

which have seen continuous reforms in stock market<br />

by its regulator Securities Exchange Board of India<br />

(SEBI) giving Indian market a new horizon of investment<br />

avenues. Hopefully, we might see some reforms<br />

for the betterment of the retail investors by SEBI. ❐<br />

774 The Management Accountant |September 2011


INCOME INCOME TAX<br />

TAX<br />

Amalgamation—Whether tax avoidance?<br />

Amalgamation is a procedure, which is a legitimate<br />

means of reorganisation of business<br />

recognised under company law and subject<br />

to conditions under the income-tax law. The<br />

Authority for Advance Ruling ruled that amalgamation<br />

could not be treated as tax avoidance in Star<br />

Television Entertainment In re (2010) 321 ITR 1 (AAR).<br />

However, where it was inferred that the objective<br />

was solely for avoidance of tax, approval was denied<br />

by the Court in Wood Polymer Limited In re [1977]<br />

109 ITR 177 (Guj), a decision endorsed by the Supreme<br />

Court in McDowell and Co. Ltd. vs CTO [1985] 154<br />

ITR 148 (SC).<br />

Revenue continues to entertain the suspicion that<br />

amalgamations or demergers and generally all<br />

reorganisations are intended to avoid tax as is evident<br />

from a recent decision of the Delhi High Court in<br />

M/s Vodafone Essar Limited in Company Petition<br />

No. 334/2009 dated 29th March 2011 on a scheme of<br />

arrangement constituting a merger between Vodafone<br />

Essar Group Companies. The Income-tax Department<br />

rather unusually impleaded itself before the High<br />

Court to resist approval. Apart from objections raised<br />

by the Regional Director, the Income-tax Department<br />

filed a formal petition again to the scheme before the<br />

High Court on the ground that the taxable profits<br />

would get reduced lowering the tax burden on the<br />

transferor, adversely affecting revenue. It would<br />

enable the transferee company to claim deductions<br />

as an infrastructure provider, so as to affect the revenue<br />

further. There was a give-away by some companies<br />

constituting gifts. It was even suggested that transferor<br />

companies may be so affected by fall in their net worth<br />

reducing their capacity to meet existing as well as<br />

contingent liabilities so as to be against public<br />

interest. The High Court found that objections of<br />

revenue were not relevant for considering an<br />

arrangement under Section 391 of the Companies Act,<br />

1956. In a case, where the shareholders of all the<br />

companies have given their consent with no member<br />

objecting to the same, the allegation that the proposed<br />

Tax Titbits<br />

S. Rajaratnam*<br />

scheme is confiscatory could not also be lightly<br />

entertained.<br />

The High Court observed “according to my mind<br />

the Income-tax Department is also not in any sort of<br />

loco parentis to the shareholders of the transferor<br />

companies ... nor are they the guardians of their<br />

interests.” At the same time, it has been recorded by<br />

the High Court that the petitioners have fairly admitted<br />

that any question of tax liability is within the purview<br />

It was added that “It is agreed that the Scheme may<br />

be sanctioned whilst relegating the parties to the<br />

that may arise. No action which may be violative of<br />

skill. It was argued that the treatment had a dual<br />

purpose, not only for saving his finger, but also for<br />

retaining his professional income. But it was still<br />

not found deductible, since a dual purpose by itself<br />

cannot justify expenditure in an English decision in<br />

Prince vs Mapp (Inspector of Taxes) (1971) 79 ITR 671<br />

(ChD). A similar view was also taken in Bowden vs<br />

Russell and Russell (1965) 42 TC 301.<br />

The law, whether an illness, which affects a<br />

professional, should not be deductible had arisen in<br />

an interesting case of an eminent lawyer, who had to<br />

undergo a coronary by-pass operation incurring a<br />

cost of Rs.1.75 lakhs which he claimed as a deduction.<br />

In an elaborate discussion, the High Court in Shanti<br />

Bhushan vs CIT (2011) 336 ITR 26 (Del) found with<br />

reference to the English decision in Norman vs Golder<br />

(Inspector of Taxes) (1945) 13 ITR (EC) 21 (CA), that a<br />

human body is not a plant and that any damage to<br />

the body cannot be allowed like repairs for any plant<br />

and machinery. He has, no doubt, used his body, but<br />

it was not as a tool. Deduction was, therefore, found<br />

inadmissible. On behalf of the assessee, the decision<br />

in Mehboob Productions Pvt. Ltd. vs CIT (1977) 106<br />

ITR 758 (Bom) was relied upon. But the High Court<br />

distinguished this case as it related to a claim for<br />

deduction of such expenses incurred by a firm on a<br />

director, when he was on an assignment on firm’s<br />

business to attend a prize giving ceremony on behalf<br />

of the firm for a film produced by the firm, so as to be<br />

deductible in the hands of employer.<br />

NOTIFICATION<br />

In fact, even where the body is used as a tool as in<br />

the case of an athlete or a sports person, a model, a<br />

dancer or a sex worker, such deduction could not be<br />

admissible, though it would cause greater hardship<br />

for those who suffer injury or loss of fitness and<br />

health over years of exercise of their profession.<br />

In fact, the High Court did refer to the case of a<br />

cricketer, guitarist, jockey or a vocalist who used their<br />

bodies as a tool. A lawyer cannot claim parity with<br />

them.<br />

It may be pointed out that the compensation<br />

received for an injury in an accident, for example,<br />

would not be taxable, so that revenue on parity of<br />

reasoning would not allow the expenses on such<br />

injuries or to the health except to the limited extent<br />

provided in the statute. It is true that the assessee<br />

would not have been put to this loss if his illness was<br />

covered by an insurance or he had taken free treatment<br />

from a Government hospital. The law probably can be<br />

more humane, so as to bring the taxpayers—who<br />

are unfortunate to meet with a serious illness like<br />

heart attack or cancer—requiring expensive treatment<br />

and those who do not have to face such health<br />

hazards.<br />

Words of wisdom<br />

As you are aware companies are required to file their Balance Sheet and Annual Return to ROC within 30 and 60 days<br />

respectively from the date of placing it in the Annual General Meeting. The companies that follow the standard FY<br />

ending up to March each year are required to convene the AGM by September of that year. However, most of the<br />

companies do not utilize the 30 and 60 days allowed for filing their documents but instead, keep waiting up to last date<br />

to file their Balance Sheet and Annual Return. The avoidable delay in filing thus creates an artificial rush and results in<br />

heavy filing on the last dates of October and November each year. Moreover, these documents being of large size take<br />

a long time to upload. <strong>This</strong> makes it difficult for others to file their documents on-line.<br />

In order to avoid heavy rush on the system due to filing of electronic forms and attachments which are of significantly<br />

large size (2MB or more), it is proposed to educate corporate and professionals so that companies can spread out their<br />

annual filings over a suitable period of time rather than rushing in on the last 2-3 days every month during peak filing<br />

season. Ministry requires your active assistance/co-operation in propagating this educational campaign.<br />

I, therefore, request you to kindly publish the enclosed notice from Ministry in your periodic publications immediately<br />

and also put up a pop up message, ticker or similar prominent message on your websites for the next few months so that<br />

a message can reach to companies to comfortably file their Balance Sheets and Annual Returns in time without having<br />

to pay penal fees.<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

Impairment in IFRS—A Process of<br />

Evaluating Business Shantonu Moitra*<br />

The True and Fair representation of a business is<br />

to be reflected in the Financial Statements and<br />

all the accounting jargon, regulations, standards<br />

are an effort to ensure proper reflection of state of<br />

affairs of the business in the Financial Statements.<br />

Impairment is an interesting set of test and adjustment<br />

effecting the Assets of the Company. The reason for<br />

this is that Assets which are carried in the books of<br />

the Company, generally at the book value and the<br />

book value in some cases may not representative of<br />

the value of the Asset in the market, in such cases the<br />

test and adjustment for impairment in the accounts<br />

brings the books of the company more representative<br />

of the market conditions. The question is also there<br />

why there is need for accounting of impairment of an<br />

asset when we have already a system of depreciation<br />

in place which takes care of the depletion in value of<br />

the asset due to wear tear obsolescence usage etc. The<br />

logic is that depreciation is a planned process of<br />

writing down a asset ,whereas impairment is a process<br />

which takes care of the changes in post-acquisition of<br />

the asset in an effort to ensure that assets are not<br />

carried in the books of account at a value which is<br />

excess of it’s recoverable amount. The impact of<br />

rapidly changing economic, regulatory, and<br />

technological forces on asset value is a critical issue<br />

for business today. Thus impairment of an Asset is<br />

an important accounting tool process and test which<br />

enables us to adjust the value of an asset on a regular<br />

basis to make accounting more true and fair, reliable<br />

and transparent.<br />

IAS 36 deals with impairment of all tangible and<br />

intangible assets unless covered by other IFRS<br />

● Impairment of Assets<br />

● <strong>Issue</strong>d in June 1998<br />

● Revised in March 2004<br />

● Recent amendment : by IFRS 3 revised in<br />

January 2008.<br />

When Impairment has to be tested<br />

Impairment testing is time intensive and includes :<br />

● the identification of impairment indicators;<br />

● assessing or reassessing the cashflows;<br />

● determining the discount rates;<br />

● testing the reasonableness of the assumptions;<br />

and<br />

● benchmarking the assumptions with the market.<br />

Companies should plan ahead. Market capitalisation<br />

below net asset value is an impairment trigger,<br />

and calculations of recoverable amount are required.<br />

If the market capitalisation is lower than a value-inuse<br />

calculation, then the VIU assumptions may need<br />

challenging, as the cashflow projections might not be<br />

as expected by the market, and the reasons for this<br />

must be determined.<br />

Whenever there are enough indications or events<br />

confirming impairment loss of an asset that particular<br />

asset needs to be tested for impairment and<br />

adjustments need to be carried out in the books of<br />

account.<br />

Assets are generally subject to an impairment<br />

review only if there are indicators of impairment.<br />

IAS 36, Impairment of Assets, lists examples of<br />

circumstances that would trigger an impairment<br />

review :<br />

External sources<br />

a. market value declines<br />

b. negative changes in technology, markets,<br />

economy, or laws<br />

c. increases in market interest rates<br />

d. company share price is below book value.<br />

Internal sources<br />

a. obsolescence or physical damage<br />

b. asset is part of a restructuring or held for<br />

disposal<br />

c. worse economic performance than expected<br />

However, in the case of undermentioned assets the<br />

process has to be carried out on annual basis whether<br />

there is any indication of impairment or not.<br />

● intangible assets with indefinite useful lives<br />

● intangible assets not yet available for use<br />

● goodwill acquired in a business combination.<br />

The process of impairment test may not be carried<br />

out at the year end but has to be carried out same time<br />

once a year. Thus different assets or cash generating<br />

units can be tested for impairment at different times<br />

during a year. Intangible assets recognized during the<br />

year need to be tested for impairment at the close of the<br />

year.<br />

What is Impairment<br />

IAS 36 impairment is a process of continuous<br />

revaluation of assets to account for any loss or gain in<br />

the value of an asset where carrying amount of an<br />

asset in the books of account is greater than its<br />

recoverable amount.<br />

Impairment When<br />

= Carrying Amount of Asset > than recoverable<br />

amount and impairment loss taken in books of<br />

account.<br />

GeneratingUnit = Greater of<br />

Value in Use Fair Value less Cost to Sell<br />

The rationale behind taking the higher of the Value<br />

in use or Fair Value less cost to sell is likely the<br />

economic value of the asset. An making rational<br />

choices would sell an Asset if the Fair Value less Cost<br />

to Sell is more than Value in Use and would continue<br />

to use the asset if Value in use if greater than Fair<br />

Value less cost to sell.The economic value of the Asset<br />

is meaning fully represented with reference to higher<br />

of the above since the entity will either dispose or use<br />

the asset based on what appears highest and best in<br />

use.<br />

Impairment Test on Whom<br />

INDIVIDUAL ASSETS/CASH GENERATING<br />

UNITS(CGU)—The recoverable is calculated for<br />

individual Assets. However, if the Asset does not<br />

generate cash inflows that is largely independent of<br />

those from other Assets the recoverable is calculated<br />

for the Cash Generating Unit to which the Asset<br />

belongs.<br />

Cash Generating Units is the smallest identifiable<br />

group of assets that generate cash inflows that are<br />

largely independent of the cash inflows from other<br />

assets or group of Assets.<br />

Value in Use<br />

Value in Use = PV of future Cash Flows expected<br />

from the Asset or CGU. As PV is to be calculated we<br />

have two variables 1) Discount Rate 2) Cash Flows.<br />

Cash Flow represents the future cash flows the entity<br />

expects from the Asset/CGU and expectation about<br />

possible variations in the amount and timing of the<br />

cash flows. It should represent —<br />

1. Management’s best estimate of the set of<br />

economic conditions of the asset over its life.<br />

2. Should be based on management assets of<br />

current Budget,Cash flows, forecasts approved by<br />

the management, any action like restructuring where<br />

final decision is pending with the management should<br />

not be factored in estimating the cash flows.<br />

3. Should exclude borrowing costs, income tax<br />

receipts or payments etc.<br />

4. IAS 36 required that the previous estimates needs<br />

to be compared with the actual cash flows as part of<br />

establishing the reasonableness of the estimates/<br />

assumptions.<br />

Discount Rate—Normally the PreTax discount rate<br />

is representative of the time value of money and risks<br />

associated with the asset for which the future cash<br />

flows have not been adjusted.<br />

A Present Value can be calculated either by<br />

‘Traditional’ or “Expected Cash Flow” Methodology.<br />

Under Traditional method a single set of Cash flows and<br />

a commensurate discount rate is used and the discount<br />

rate also factoring in the Risk. The Expected Cash Flows<br />

different Probabilities are assigned to different<br />

expected cash flows in different scenarios and the PV is<br />

calculated on the expected outcomes based on the<br />

probabilities and expected cash flows. As also<br />

indicated in IAS36, Expected Cash Flows, in many cases<br />

gives a more effective tool than the Traditional method.<br />

The calculation of the Value is subject to variables<br />

and is not standardised which may lead lack of<br />

congruity of the financial statement—the primary<br />

objective of any standard.<strong>This</strong> means that companies,<br />

though applying the same standards, may not be<br />

calculating the valuation approaches or discount rate<br />

in the same way. For example, Probabilities assigned<br />

for different scenarios in calculating the Expected<br />

Cash Flow may be different in two different comparable<br />

companies leading to different standards of<br />

impairment test being adopted by the companies.<strong>This</strong><br />

needs attention and a process needs to be standardised<br />

and valuation standards established. International<br />

Valuation Standards Council (IVSC) develops and<br />

maintains the standards for reporting the valuation<br />

and disclosure of valuations. Valuation Standards<br />

exist in many countries but an effort is urgently<br />

required for converging the valuation standards<br />

similar to that of IFRS.<br />

However, in the present day scenario, the<br />

Management, for calculating the value in use, needs<br />

to integrate its decision making process into other<br />

business processes and should not keep an isolated<br />

exercise only for arriving at the impairment.<br />

Fair Value less Cost to Sell<br />

Amount obtainable from sale of asset in an Arms<br />

Length transaction between knowledgeable and<br />

willing parties less cost to sell —<br />

1. The Best evidence of Fair Value is a price in a<br />

FINANCIAL FINANCIAL ACCOUNTING<br />

ACCOUNTING<br />

binding agreement at an arm’s length transaction less<br />

cost to sell.<br />

2. If no binding agreement exists then the estimate.<br />

should be based on Asset Prices in an active market<br />

less cost of disposal.<br />

3. If both are not available it is based on the Best<br />

Estimate available on what will be the realisations<br />

from the asset at the end of the reporting period less<br />

cost to sell.<br />

4. If market price is not available then Discounted<br />

Cash Flow can be used for calculating the Fair value.<br />

Treatment of Impairment Loss in Accounts<br />

1. For non-revalued assets<br />

* impairment loss is recognized in profit or loss.<br />

2. For revalued assets<br />

* impairment loss is recognized in other<br />

comprehensive incomes reducing the revaluation<br />

surplus for that Asset.If the Impairment Loss exceeds<br />

the Revaluation Surplus the remaining loss is<br />

recognised as an expense in the Profit & Loss Account.<br />

3. Carrying amount is reduced to recoverable amount<br />

* recoverable amount becomes new carrying amount.<br />

* depreciation will be adjusted based on new<br />

carrying amount.<br />

However, the Standard does not give any direction<br />

whether the Impairment is to be credited to the Asset<br />

A/c directly or added to Accumulated Depreciation<br />

or Treated as a depreciation in Balance Sheet<br />

separately depicted and reduced from asset there.<br />

For assets carried at historical cost, impairment<br />

losses are recognised as an expense immediately in<br />

profit or loss. If the impaired asset is a revalued asset<br />

under IAS 16 or IAS 38, the impairment loss is treated<br />

as a revaluation decrease and recognised directly in<br />

other comprehensive incomes reducing the revaluation<br />

surplus for that asset. To the extent the impairment loss<br />

exceeds the revaluation surplus it is charged in PL.<br />

Corporate Assets<br />

Corporate Assets indicate Head Quarters Building,<br />

Equipments which do not generate any Cash<br />

Flows by itself but needs to be tested for impairment<br />

as per IAS 36, otherwise these Assets will not be tested<br />

for impairment and also give a way out to companies<br />

to bypass the impairment testing. IAS 36 requires<br />

that the Corporate Assets need to allocated to the Cash<br />

Generating Units to which it is most closely associated.<br />

The most logical approach seems to allocate<br />

Corporate Assets on the basis of some objective<br />

criteria like Turnover, Unit Cash flow etc.<br />

Impairment of Goodwill<br />

Goodwill can primarily take two forms: purchased<br />

goodwill and internally-generated goodwill. Under<br />

IFRS 3 and, IFRS 10, internally-generated goodwill<br />

cannot be capitalised. Goodwill as per IAS 36 is to<br />

be tested for impairment once in a year whether<br />

impairment indicators exist or not.<br />

Goodwill of the acquirer is allocated to the CGU<br />

or group of CGU which is effected by the synergies of<br />

the acquisition—whether the assets and liabilities<br />

acquired are transferred or allocated to that CGU/<br />

Group of CGU or not. The Goodwill to be allocated<br />

for impairment Testing to a CGU or a Group of CGU<br />

but the Group of CGU cannot be larger than<br />

“operating Segments” as defined inIFRS8 . If goodwill<br />

has not been allocated to individual CGUs, as is often<br />

the case, but is monitored at a higher level, a twostage<br />

impairment test is required.<br />

Firstly, impairment testing is performed at<br />

individual CGU level, comparing individual CGU<br />

recoverable amounts with the assets that have been<br />

directly allocated to the CGU (for example, a retail<br />

store for a retailer). Any impairment identified at this<br />

level is allocated to the fixed assets being tested.<br />

Secondly, the recoverable amount of the group of<br />

CGUs to which goodwill relates is compared with all<br />

of the assets of those CGUs plus the goodwill. At this<br />

second stage, any impairment is charged against<br />

goodwill until that is exhausted.<br />

When a CGU, or group of CGUs, to which goodwill<br />

is allocated is tested for impairment, any impairment<br />

loss is allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of<br />

the goodwill. The remaining loss (if any) is then<br />

allocated to other assets of the CGU pro rata on the basis<br />

of the carrying amount of each asset in the CGU.<br />

However, in this process, the carrying amount of an<br />

asset will never be reduced below the higher of its<br />

individual recoverable amount and zero.<br />

Example for Goodwill Impairment<br />

ABC takes over 80% of XYZ Ltd on 1 May 2009<br />

Price paid by ABC Rs. 200,000<br />

Net Assets of XYZ is Rs. 150,000<br />

80% of Assets Rs.120,000 for which price paid is<br />

Rs. 200,000 ie Rs. 80,000 has been paid for Goodwill.<br />

ABC allocates Rs 100,000 Goodwill to XYZ Ltd and<br />

balance is allocated to other CGU having synergistic<br />

benefit from the takeover.<br />

On March 31, 2010, ABC Tests Goodwill for<br />

Impairment as required by Standards.<br />

The Recoverable value of XYZ as on 31, 2010, was<br />

Rs 90,000 and its Net Assets excluding Goodwill was<br />

Rs 130,000.<br />

Reversal of Impairment Loss under IFRS<br />

Reversal of Impairment Loss booked in earlier<br />

years can be reversed under IFRS for other than<br />

Goodwill. It is important to note that reversal of<br />

impairment loss of an asset, other than goodwill, need<br />

to be recognized only to the extent which in no case is<br />

in excess of its original pre-impaired value less<br />

subsequent depreciation. Thus while reversing<br />

impairment loss the first step should be to establish<br />

the pre-impaired value of the asset less subsequent<br />

depreciation. Second step should be to calculate the<br />

difference between the value calculated as per step<br />

first and the carrying amount of the asset. Finally<br />

impairment loss can be reversed to the extent of value<br />

difference as calculated under step second. In the case<br />

of reversal of impairment loss of cash generating<br />

assets the reversal is done on prorata basis with the<br />

carrying amount of the assets, excluding goodwill. In<br />

the case of goodwill reversal of impairment loss is<br />

not allowed. Illustration<br />

revaluation of fixed assets to reflect fair market values<br />

although it is compulsory to account for impairment<br />

in fixed assets (downward revaluation of fixed assets)<br />

as per FASB Statement No. 144, Accounting for the<br />

Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.<br />

The United Kingdom, Australia, and India allow<br />

upward revaluation in the values of fixed assets to<br />

bring them in consonance with fair market values.<br />

However, the law requires disclosure of the basis of<br />

revaluation, amount of revaluation made to each class<br />

of assets (for a specified period after the financial year<br />

in which revaluation is made), and other information.<br />

Under US GAAP, no impairment loss is recognized<br />

—(since the carrying amount of Rs 3,000,000 is less than<br />

the sum of the undiscounted cash flows of Rs. 3,100,000.<br />

Few issues for Management<br />

From the above discussion it is fairly clear that<br />

Impairment testing and its requirements under IFRS<br />

is a management’s task and not solely an accountants<br />

job.The Management systems needs to be synchronised<br />

and adapted for all the issues of impairment<br />

and for all the issues emanating from impairment.<br />

Impairment is a process of evaluating the business<br />

itself—hence involvement of Senior Management is a<br />

must firstly for assessing impairment and evaluating<br />

its strategic dimensions.<br />

Scenario Relevance<br />

Large Indian companies could report a sharp fall<br />

in the valuation of their assets as new accounting<br />

norms prompt these firms to reassess the fair value<br />

of their units, a mandatory condition under globalised<br />

reporting standards. Adoption of the International<br />

Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS), a modern<br />

accounting system that Indian companies have to<br />

migrate to from next year, could see local firms<br />

publicly admit to any erosion in the value of their<br />

subsidiaries or other assets — like Vodafone that<br />

recently shaved off $3.2 billion (about Rs 14,600 crore)<br />

from its Indian unit due to adverse market conditions.<br />

Impairment of Assets for Consolidated Accounts for<br />

Tata Chemicals is Rs 119.22Cr in 08-09 and Rs 34.90<br />

Cr in 09-10 as per Annual Report—a variance of more<br />

than 300%. Impairment for Fixed Assets for Dabur<br />

India Ltd Rs 2.58Cr 09-10 and Rs. 1.59Cr for 09-10. In<br />

2005-06 Hindalco had written off Rs. 336.29 million<br />

as per AS 28 as impairment of different Assets. The<br />

above figures has been given to emphasise that<br />

impairment is an important component in assessing<br />

the business and has strategic implications. An<br />

accountant merely records it but the figures of<br />

impairment are emanated from decisions taken at the<br />

strategic level for the company as a whole. A wrong<br />

acquisition, a new product in the category with new<br />

technological dimensions are some of them. Again,<br />

market when in a downturn or recession, will lead to<br />

increase in reported impairment figures of corporates<br />

which, in turn, will affect the bottomline, in addition<br />

to the decrease in sales or market size affecting the<br />

bottomline. Impairment is a subject which needs<br />

attention of Highest levels of Management as it is—<br />

in one way —Evaluation of the Business itself. ❐<br />

Industrial Sickness in India : Magnitude and<br />

Intensity<br />

Growing incidence of industrial sickness in the<br />

small, medium and large scale sectors has<br />

become the cause of considerable concern for<br />

all quarters. Incidence of industrial sickness is no<br />

doubt a global phenomenon. But then, can our country<br />

accept such a situation? Developed country’s economy<br />

has the resilience to absorb the economic imbalance<br />

brought about by the closure of industrial units. The<br />

problem of industrial sickness has, however, adverse<br />

repercussion on the economy of our country as it can<br />

neither afford unemployment nor loss of production<br />

by keeping the capital assets idle. With opening up<br />

of Indian economy in the global market, Indian<br />

industries have been finding it very difficult<br />

to compete under the changed environment.<br />

Globalization—which is the centrepiece of process of<br />

change in the 1990s followed by liberalization and<br />

privatization—led the Indian industries to much<br />

better interdependence in the world economy.<br />

Process of globalisation has provided tremendous<br />

opportunities to the Indian industries with respect to<br />

trade, inflow of foreign investment, technology, skills,<br />

and market access. On the other hand, however, it<br />

has pushed Indian industries to greater risk of being<br />

marginalized as they may not be able to integrate fully<br />

into the global economy and enjoy its benefits. In such<br />

a situation, one needs to assess the actual magnitude<br />

and economic impact of sickness in Indian manufacturing<br />

industries.<br />

Objective<br />

The aim of this paper is to present a comprehensive<br />

assessment of actual magnitude of industrial<br />

sickness on the basis of official data available from<br />

the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) and the Board for<br />

Industrial and Financial Reconstruction (BIFR). Statewise<br />

and industry-wise distribution of industrial<br />

Dilip Kumar Datta*<br />

sickness as reflected from the BIFR data has also been<br />

described in this paper, besides constructing an index<br />

of intensity of sickness for making a comparative<br />

analysis.<br />

Magnitude of Industrial Sickness<br />

According to the Reserve Bank of India, the total<br />

number of sick industrial units in this country was<br />

24,550 in 1980-81. By the end of 2002-03, the number<br />

of sick units has increased to 1,71,376; thus, over a<br />

period of twentytwo years, the number of sick<br />

industrial units has increased, on year-on-year basis,<br />

by 12.49% per year; the compound growth rate is<br />

calculated to be about 9.23% (Table 1). During this<br />

period, the total amount of blocked bank credit (WPI<br />

adjusted) increased from Rs. 1,809 crores to<br />

Rs. 8,418.30 crores. Table 1 indicates that the real (WPI<br />

adjusted) non-performing bank credit blocked by the<br />

sick units increased at a rate of 7.90% per year (the<br />

compound growth rate is 7.24%), which is higher than<br />

the average growth rate of the GDP of this country<br />

during this period. In terms of numbers, the smallscale<br />

industrial (SSI) units account for 98.79% of the<br />

sick industrial units. Out of 1,71,376 sick industrial<br />

units, number of SSI units had been as high as 1,67,980<br />

in 2002-03. In terms of growth also, the number of<br />

sick SSI units outperformed the Non-SSI units. Over<br />

the last two decades, the number of sick SSI units,<br />

increased at the rate of 12.86% on year-on-year basis;<br />

the Non-SSI units on the other hand, increased only<br />

at the rate of 4.27% per year. The other noteworthy<br />

feature is that the fluctuation in the number of sick<br />

SSI units had been much higher than that of the Non-<br />

SSI units—a fact reflected in a higher value of<br />

coefficient of variation in the time series data on the<br />

number of SSI units, as reported in Table 1.<br />

If the economic consequence of sickness in SSI units<br />

is measured in terms of the non-performing bank<br />

credit blocked by the sick industrial units, one should,<br />

however, note that the negative contribution of the<br />

SSI units in this regard is much lower than that of the<br />

large and medium scale units. The amount of bank<br />

credit that remained non-performing in sick SSI units<br />

was Rs. 306 crores in 1980-81 whereas the amount<br />

that remained blocked by the non-SSI units was<br />

Rs. 1,503 crores in 1980-81. Over the period, the share<br />

of the non-SSI units did not decline significantly; on<br />

an average, the share of the non-SSI units in non-<br />

MANAGEMENT<br />

performing bank credit had been 76.5%. The<br />

fluctuation in the time series data on outstanding bank<br />

credit in both the sectors had been almost the same<br />

(Table 1). It appears that over the last two decades<br />

the scenario as regards the trend of the distribution<br />

of non-performing bank credit in these two sectors<br />

might have maintained a systematic pattern. Fig. 1<br />

and Fig. 2 capture this reality. It shows that there was,<br />

of course, a systematic pattern, but the pattern was<br />

somewhat a rising share of the sick non-SSI units in<br />

the bank credit blocked by all the sick industrial units;<br />

the share of the SSI units were however, falling during<br />

the same period. <strong>This</strong> was evident from the linear<br />

trend fitted to the data which indicated that the share<br />

of the SSI units have fallen to some extent (p-coefficient<br />

being almost zero but has a negative sign) and that of<br />

non-SSI units have shown an increasing trend (Pcoefficient<br />

being 0.019) over time during the entire<br />

period.<br />

Fig. 2 : Trends in Outstanding Bank Credit (WPI<br />

Adjusted) Block Per Unit of SSI and Non-SSI Sick<br />

Units<br />

Source : Table 1<br />

The same truth is captured if we normalise the data<br />

and consider bank credit blocked per unit of SSI, non-<br />

SSI and total sick units. The average percentage<br />

growth per unit of sick SSI units for the entire period<br />

was about (–) 0.73% per year and, on the other hand,<br />

the average percentage growth per unit of the non-<br />

SSI units was about 3.47% per year. The bank credit<br />

blocked per unit of non-SSI unit had been 81.27 times<br />

higher than that of SSI units in 1980-81. By the end of<br />

2002-2003, the ratio has increased to 252.76.<br />

Zonewise Distribution of Industrial Sickness as<br />

Reflected from the BIFR Data<br />

Considering now the zonewise distribution of the<br />

sick Non-SSI industrial units, as given in Table 2, we<br />

observe that the number of cases registered with the<br />

Board for Industrial and Financial Reconstruction<br />

(BIFR) had been 5,689 as on 6.08.2010. As the data<br />

indicates, the southern and the western zones account<br />

for the higher percentage of the units registered under<br />

the BIFR; these two zones account for as high as 63%<br />

of the total cases registered with the BIFR. The<br />

percentage of sick units in the eastern zone is only<br />

eleven. <strong>This</strong>, however, blurs the fact that the intensity<br />

of sickness (ratio of accumulated losses to networth)<br />

as measured in Table 2 is the highest in eastern zone<br />

(2.02). Again, in terms of the number of workers<br />

involved per unit of sick industrial units, the eastern<br />

zone tops the list with 1,534 workers per unit of sick<br />

companies. Based on these observations, one may<br />

conclude that the severity of the problem is most<br />

pronounced in the eastern zone of the country,<br />

although this is not reflected in the number of cases<br />

registered with the BIFR.<br />

Industrywise Distribution of Industrial Sickness<br />

as Reflected from the BIFR Data<br />

Considering the industrywise distribution of the<br />

non-SSI sick industrial units as given in Table 3, we<br />

observe that the industry with the highest intensity of<br />

sickness is the jute industry (705). The industry with the<br />

highest number of cases registered is the textile industry<br />

(957). In terms of the number of workers involved per<br />

unit of sick industrial units, jute industry tops the list<br />

with 2,829 workers per unit of sick companies.<br />

Economic Impact of Sickness in Various Regions<br />

Table 4 explores the reality of the economic impact<br />

of sickness in various regions of the country. The<br />

indicator here is the distribution of blocked bank<br />

credit due to industrial sickness in various regions of<br />

the country. As one can observe from Table 4, the<br />

highest percentage of blocked bank credit was in the<br />

southern zone; this was followed by the northern<br />

zone. Compared to these two zones, the responsibility<br />

of the eastern zone appears to be different. In fact, the<br />

percentage of non performing bank credit blocked by<br />

the Non-SSI units in the eastern zone appears to be<br />

the lowest (15.9%). The units in the southern zone<br />

and western zone together account for as high as<br />

62.03% of the bank credit blocked by the Non-SSI<br />

units. The economic consequence of such a<br />

phenomenon can be discussed in terms of the ratio of<br />

the non-performing bank credit with the Net Domestic<br />

Product (NDP).<br />

Note: (i) Figures are as on end of March 1998.<br />

(ii) NDP is the sum of SDPs of the states in a zone.<br />

(iii) In case of zonal data the comparable<br />

information has been collected by adding the values<br />

of the State Domestic Product at current prices for<br />

the provinces in the concerned regions in 1997-98.<br />

As we observe from column 7 of Table 4, the funds<br />

blocked by sick units which could have been used<br />

otherwise for expanding the output base of a region,<br />

had been the highest in the southern zone. As ratio to<br />

NDP, it was 1.15% in that region. In the other zones,<br />

the ratio varied from 0.82 to 0.85%. One thus<br />

understands that the macroeconomic impact of nonperforming<br />

bank credit was most intense in the<br />

southern zone. In other three zones, the fund blocked<br />

by the sick units in an unproductive way, as a<br />

percentage to NDP, is found to be lower than that in<br />

the southern zone.<br />

Conclusion<br />

During the period from 1980-81 to 2002-03 (i.e.,<br />

the first ten years when strict regulatory regime was<br />

being gradually replaced by deregulatory measures<br />

followed by first ten years of New Industrial Policy<br />

and economic reformatory regime), total number of<br />

sick industrial units in India increased by about seven<br />

times. During this period, total amount of bank credit<br />

blocked (WPI adjusted) increased by about five times.<br />

In terms of numbers and growth, the number of sick<br />

SSI units outperformed the Non-SSI units. However,<br />

in terms of non-performing bank credit blocked by<br />

ECONOMIC ECONOMIC MATTERS<br />

MATTERS<br />

Black Money in parallel existence with<br />

legitimate economy<br />

V. Gopalan*<br />

As stated in the editorial of a national<br />

newspaper recently, since the time of<br />

Dadabhai Naoroji (1880s), Indians have<br />

always been captivated by the idea that our national<br />

wealth is slowly being drained abroad. It is therefore<br />

the Supreme Court’s decision to set up a Special<br />

Investigation Team to ensure the return of money<br />

stashed abroad is widely welcomed.<br />

Black money is generated by the desire to evade<br />

taxes and hide assets disproportionate to known<br />

sources of income. Black money, after all, refers to<br />

the sum total of unaccounted income, and not just<br />

the funds spirited away to Switzerland, Lichtenstein,<br />

or some other foreign safe haven.<br />

As reported in media many times, the property<br />

transactions to a major extent add to the national stock<br />

of unaccounted money. It is by the buyers and sellers<br />

colluding in under-reporting the true value of the<br />

transaction. Major part of sale price is paid in cash,<br />

depriving the state of capital gains tax and stamp duty.<br />

The cash received is often recycled back into the<br />

property market, where the returns are extremely<br />

high.<br />

Black money, also described as tainted money, has<br />

presence everywhere and is posing a great threat to<br />

the stability of real economy. Black economy, if not<br />

tackled in time, will ruin the country’s economy. Black<br />

money in economic terms means ‘unrecorded gains’.<br />

In other words, it is income which has escaped<br />

taxation. The black-money has now assumed vast<br />

dimensions and menacing proportions.<br />

The causes of Black-money are :<br />

1. Unrealistically high rates of taxes;<br />

2. Complicated tax-laws in a country that a<br />

layman fails to understand it;<br />

3. Numerous controls, licenses and other governmental<br />

regulations in a country;<br />

4. Political activities such as elections where huge<br />

money to is be spent;<br />

5. Illegal activities like smuggling, drug-peddling;<br />

6. Deterioration in the moral and civic standards<br />

of the people.<br />

It is common that large amounts of black-money<br />

are generated through the sale of fixed assets and<br />

scrap; or firms sell licenses at cash premiums; or over<br />

or under invoices of transactions; or large scale<br />

smuggling of precious items etc.<br />

Since money generated out of black money is<br />

re-invested in such activities as hoarding and<br />

smuggling, it fetches still higher returns. Once blackmoney<br />

is converted into black wealth it is very difficult<br />

to track it down.<br />

The genesis of black money can be attributed to<br />

several factors. However, the most widespread cause<br />

of black money is associated with World War II (1939-<br />

1945). The supply of industrial goods to the Allies was<br />

cut during the War from their traditional suppliers,<br />

leading to a severe shortage of vital necessities. <strong>This</strong><br />

prompted the British Government to indulge in<br />

excessive inflationary finance tactics for its war efforts,<br />

leading to a sharp rise in the prices of commodities.<br />

Tax rates on higher incomes and excess profits were<br />

also raised, prompting many to resort to black<br />

marketing and tax evasive measures.<br />

People made huge profits by dealing in items in<br />

short supply giving rise to a psychology that more<br />

money could be made from shortages than from<br />

production and expansion of business. The government<br />

has been unable to prevent the administrative<br />

powers from amassing wealth in black money by<br />

misusing the controls and regulations still in place<br />

today. Price controls in the absence of an adequate<br />

system of distribution and an effective arrangement<br />

for increasing supplies can potentially generate huge<br />

amounts of black money. The licensing system<br />

equires a large number of inspectors to execute<br />

various formalities and where controls cannot be<br />

implemented, one sees a lot of harassment and black<br />

money generation.<br />

As Indian tax system has a wide range of tax laws<br />

in place for segments such as income tax, sales tax,<br />

service tax, customs duty, stamp duties, excise duty<br />

etc. the controls have been very difficult, thus<br />

providing adequate scope for corruption. Adding to<br />

this, high levels of tax rates have prompted<br />

businessmen to evade taxes at any possible situation.<br />

As stated in Financial Literacy Agenda for Mass<br />

Empowerment, a healthy economy thrives, to a large<br />

extent, on the money that comes to that country’s<br />

government as tax revenue. The floating of black<br />

money causes great losses to the country’s exchequer.<br />

The following are some of the other ways in which<br />

black money can affect a country’s economic and<br />

social progress : Black money in an economy tends to<br />

cripple the free flow of a country’s resources in the<br />

right direction. It also widens the income gap. Salaried<br />

individuals, especially those in the lower rung of the<br />

the sick industrial units, non-SSI units outperformed<br />

the SSI units. We observe that while the southern and<br />

the western zone account for the higher percentage<br />

(63 per cent) of the total cases registered with the BIFR,<br />

intensity of sickness is the highest in the eastern zone.<br />

In terms of the number of workers involved per unit<br />

of sick industrial units, the eastern zone tops the list.<br />

Amongst the industry groups, while the jute industry<br />

is having the highest intensity of sickness, textile<br />

industry tops the list in respect of number of units<br />

registered with BIFR. One may thus conclude from<br />

the trend of growing sickness that various measures<br />

adopted by our Central Government for tackling the<br />

problem of industrial sickness has not been effective<br />

in controlling the situation. It may be due to lack of<br />

any robust quantitative indicator of industrial sickness<br />

in our country.<br />

BIFR defines a manufacturing unit as sick when<br />

its accumulated losses in any financial year exceed its<br />

net worth. <strong>This</strong> definition given in the SICA can at<br />

corporate ladder, do not see their incomes rising<br />

unlike those in the higher echelons as it can be safely<br />

assumed that the latter group has huge sources of<br />

unaccounted income. The presence of unaccounted<br />

money acts as a block on the right assessment of a<br />

country’s progress.<br />

The assessment of a country’s progress is<br />

dependent on the accurate calculation of the savingsto-income<br />

ratio and sector-wise composition of<br />

national income. Black money is usually parked in<br />

so-called safe tax havens overseas, which is a huge<br />

drain on the national exchequer. <strong>This</strong> way, a country<br />

also unwittingly becomes a ‘de facto’ lender of capital<br />

to more advanced and wealthier nations. Finally, black<br />

money needs ‘muscle power’ for its protection and<br />

proliferation as well as accounting experts, liaison<br />

officers who negotiate between black money operators<br />

and political leaders, threatening to corrupt the entire<br />

social and political fabric of a country.<br />

India will be on top of the world if and when it<br />

becomes a ‘black money’ free economy. It is difficult<br />

but possible—only if the Indians decide to end this<br />

menace! ❐<br />

best identify industrial companies as sick only at their<br />

terminal stage, when, in most of the cases, they are<br />

beyond redemption. <strong>This</strong> study of growing incidence<br />

of industrial sickness may motivate for further study<br />

to trace sickness of an industrial company at a much<br />

earlier stage, when the unit was morbid, on the basis<br />

of a few well-defined financial indicators. ❐<br />

INDIRECT INDIRECT TAXATION<br />

TAXATION<br />

Taking the horse to the water : Refunds run<br />

thin at the tax credit trough<br />

P. Ravindran*<br />

It is well known that the defining idiom of any<br />

Value Added Tax is the provision of input tax<br />

credits. It is equally axiomatic that it is not enough<br />

that tax credits are just provided for. What counts is<br />

the extent of the tax credits allowed. In an earlier<br />

issue of Management Accountant we analyzed the<br />

comparative features of tax credits between CENVAT<br />

credit and VAT credit. We also saw that these two<br />

tax input systems crucially vary in several important<br />

aspects and noted that such divergences tend to<br />

impact negatively on the time value of tax credit<br />

money. It was also hoped that such undesirable<br />

diversity in input tax credit systems will be a thing of<br />

the past when the anticipated Goods and Services Tax<br />

(GST) actually arrives on the scene. In this article let<br />

us examine the provisions in the Central Excise/<br />

Service tax Credit law regarding the way accumulated<br />

and unutilized input tax credits are dealt with.<br />

Factors inducing input tax credit build-up :<br />

The aggregation and accumulation of input tax<br />

credits without corresponding exhaustion against<br />

output tax could arise due to any or all of the following<br />

factors :<br />

● Mismatch between input and output tax rates.<br />

● Pile-up of unsold inventory.<br />

● Absence of just-in-time production practices.<br />

● Preponderance of high-tax import content in<br />

the raw material.<br />

● Unit operation as a cost centre in the corporate<br />

group hierarchy rather than as a profit centre.<br />

● Additional and unanticipated purchasing and<br />

warehousing needs and requirements.<br />

● Competitive pressures forcing down the price<br />

of the final product.<br />

● The huge investment in capital stock used for<br />

business, especially Greenfield projects.<br />

● Distress sales.<br />

Tax credit refund as a governing philosophy of<br />

value-added tax system<br />

The fundamental feature of the Value Added Tax<br />

System is that unutilized credit should be returned<br />

or refunded. The VAT System is a multi-point levy<br />

of tax with the benefit of set-off for the tax paid up to<br />

the previous stages. Since the levy of tax is essentially<br />

on the value addition, the negative net difference<br />

between credit available for adjustment and credit<br />

actually offset signifies excess tax held by the tax<br />

administration. The question of what to do with this<br />

excess tax credit naturally arises. Neither the<br />

MODVAT Credit Rules nor the successor CENVAT<br />

Credit Rules answers this question in any convincing<br />

manner. The Tax Policy behind such aggregationcum-accumulation<br />

of input tax credits is opaque and<br />

does not lead to clear understanding. In the context<br />

of CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004, if there is any<br />

provision in the statute giving a flavour of tax credit<br />

refund, it is to be seen in the Rule 5 of the CENVAT<br />

Credit Rules. <strong>This</strong> Rule provides for the refund of<br />

CENVAT credit in respect of :<br />

(a) Input or input service used in or in relation to<br />

the manufacture of final product which is cleared for<br />

export under bond or letter of undertaking.<br />

(b) Input or input service used for providing output<br />

service which has been exported without payment of<br />

service tax, subject to safeguards, conditions and<br />

limitations, set out in the Appendix to this notification.<br />

One of the conditions in the Appendix vide S.No.5<br />

states that the refund of unutilized input service tax<br />

credit will be restricted to the extent of the ratio of<br />

export turnover to the total turnover for the given<br />

period to which the claim relates. The methodology<br />

relating to Condition No. 5 is given under an<br />

Explanatory Clause as :<br />

(1) “Export turnover” shall mean the sum of total<br />

value of final products and output services exported<br />

during the given period in respect of which the<br />

exporter claims the facility of refund under this rule.<br />

(2) “Total turnover” means the sum total of the<br />

value of —<br />

(a) all output services and exempted services<br />

provided, including value of services exported;<br />

(b) all excisable and non-excisable goods cleared,<br />

including the value of goods exported;<br />

(c) The value of bought out goods sold during the<br />

given period.<br />

For other conditions, the Appendix to the<br />

Notification may kindly be referred to. Thus it can be<br />

seen that this refund provision is a limited one and<br />

does not guarantee fullest refund for inputs/input<br />

services used in export use in view of the formula<br />

restricting the refund to the proportionate export<br />

value in the turnover of the business.<br />

An important and positive provision in the refund<br />

arrangement under CENVAT Rule No.5 is that there<br />

is no requirement to link the inputs and the input<br />

services sequentially to the export of merchandise or<br />

the export of services, as the case may be. The period<br />

of the refund claim is the period of export of the goods<br />

or the services. All that is required in respect of inputs<br />

and input services is that they should have been used<br />

in or in relation to the manufacture of the export<br />

merchandise and, in the case of service exporters, such<br />

inputs or input services should have been used for<br />

providing the export service. The logical and proper<br />

inference from this scheme is that refund is granted<br />

even if the input or input services concerned might<br />

have been received and utilized prior to the period in<br />

which the exports of merchandise or services, as the<br />

case may be, have taken place.<br />

In the backdrop of the refund provisions granted<br />

under Rule 5 of CENVAT Credit Rules, 2004, the<br />

Government has put in place parallel refund provisions<br />

for service exporters, vide Notifications 41/2007 dated<br />

6.10.2007 (since superseded) and 17/2009 dated<br />

7.7.2009 as amended. These parallel refund provisions<br />

available to service exporters, while appearing to be<br />

more liberal than what is seen under CENVAT Rule 5,<br />

actually confine the refund to a restricted range of input<br />

services. There is no refund of service tax paid on input<br />

services beyond the eighteen services provided for.<br />

Service exporters whose only business is export will<br />

potentially consume a much wider range of input<br />

services than the 18 ordained for refund. Thus, this<br />

parallel benefit under Notification 41/2007 read with<br />

17/2009 does not go far enough in living up to the<br />

widely recognized principle of tax jurisprudence that<br />

only merchandise and services should be exported and<br />

not the input taxes on goods and services.<br />

There is another problem seen in the above two<br />

Notifications 41/2007 and 17/2009. Quite unlike the<br />

CENVAT Rule 5, which does not demand or slip in<br />

through subaltern means any proportionate or<br />

sequential linkage between the inputs and input<br />

services on the one hand, and the exported goods and<br />

services on the other, the above Notifications demand<br />

as a requirement of the Refund Application Form that<br />

the details of refund claim for inputs and input<br />

services should be filed separately for each shipping<br />

bill. The condition has the effect of demanding oneto-one<br />

correlation between the inputs/input services<br />

and the exported goods/services. The difficulties in<br />

meeting this condition will be obvious. Many of the<br />

inputs or input services could be used for export<br />

production or export service over a considerable<br />

length of time. The shipping bill details will likely<br />

get repeated several times in several refund claims.<br />

The Department rejects such repeat shipping bill<br />

claims for no fault of the exporting industry.<br />

Therefore, there is a sore need for a central and<br />

integrated provision for refund of input tax credits in<br />

export and other situations. Multiplicity of refund<br />

mechanisms in CENVAT Credit Rule 5 and in stand<br />

alone notifications, such as 41/2007 and 17/2009, with<br />

subtle differences leads to unhelpful interpretations by<br />

the tax administration resulting in denial of potential<br />

huge claims. It is high time that the tax administration<br />

reforms the refund provisions relating to the input tax<br />

credits in the Central Excise and Service Tax arenas.<br />

In this context, it cannot be missed that the<br />

CENVAT Credit Rules have no provision for refund<br />

of unutilized/accumulated input tax credits in<br />

situations other than for export. Such wasteful<br />

accumulation of tax credit money remitted to the<br />

Department presents an unedifying picture of<br />

unwanted additional costs adding to the woes of the<br />

business and industry. The need of the hour is the<br />

fastest turn-around in the usage of tax credit and the<br />

uninterrupted inflow and outflow of input tax credits.<br />

<strong>This</strong> will considerably enhance the tax competitiveness<br />

of Indian Industry and Business. For this to<br />

prevail, the government needs to put in place a specific<br />

provision refunding input tax credits which have been<br />

aggregated and accumulated without neutralization<br />

through adjustment against the output taxes. It<br />

appears that the government has not made up its mind<br />

regarding this aspect of tax credit policy. That the<br />

government is not in principle opposed to granting<br />

refund of unutilized input tax credits in situations<br />

other than export is evidenced by the fact that the<br />

CENVAT Credit Rules do not show any specific bar<br />

against refund of unutilized input tax credits other<br />

than for exports. Several judicial decisions, both of<br />

the High Courts and the Tribunals, have pointed to<br />

this fact and favoured refund of unutilized input tax<br />

credits. After all, the State VAT Acts have a universal<br />

provision for such refunds. The Department of<br />

Central Excise and Service Tax cannot be unaware of<br />

the divergence between the CENVAT and the VAT<br />

Credit systems in this regard. The leading case<br />

favoring Cenvat Credit Refund in situations other than<br />

export is UNION OF INDIA vs SLOVAK TRADING<br />

CO PVT LTD. — 2006 (201) E.L.T. 559 (Kar.) The<br />

Supreme Court has maintained the above decision of<br />

the High Court vide Union of India v. Slovak India<br />

Trading Co. Pvt. Ltd. — 2008 (223) E.L.T. A170 (S.C.).<br />

Conclusion<br />

The integration of procedures governing refund of<br />

unutilized or other types of tax credit, whether for<br />

export or otherwise, into a single statutory code will go<br />

a long way in reforming the tax credit system to suit the<br />

needs of the Indian Industry and Business. The cause<br />

of increasing the tax credit efficiency is important and<br />

will actually add to the price competitiveness of the<br />

Indian products and services within the country as well<br />

as in the global markets. As an urgent prerequisite,<br />

anticipating such an integrated code, the government<br />

should introduce specific provisions in the tax credit<br />

laws providing for refund of unutilized and accumulated<br />

input tax credits, bringing the CENVAT and VAT<br />

Credits on par for business competitiveness.<br />

We keep our fingers crossed on this. ❐<br />

International Merger and Acquisition : An Overview<br />

on the Cultural Clash<br />

Introduction<br />

MERGER MERGER AND AND ACQUISITION<br />

ACQUISITION<br />

In the last two decades, international mergers and<br />

acquisitions (M&A) have been a popular choice<br />

of overseas market entry (Kiessling and Richey,<br />

2005). M & A are not confined in a particular country,<br />

rather it is widely pervasive. China participated in the<br />

venture from 1978 (Kleinburg, 1990), with the rise of<br />

free trade agreements and economic growth in South<br />

East Asia. More recently, Indian companies are<br />

beginning to launch overseas takeover significantly<br />

(Financial Times, 1st July 2007). M&A allow companies<br />

to achieve greater market power, overcome barriers<br />

to entry, enter new markets quickly, and to acquire<br />

new knowledge along with resources (Vermeulen and<br />

Barkema, 2001). It is to be mentioned here that M&A<br />

are not necessarily the only way of expanding business<br />

or of entering new markets. There are also other modes<br />

of entry into international market like joint ventures or<br />

strategic alliances.<br />

International market entry through M&A has also<br />

some demerits. M&A require additional costs<br />

(premium and advisory cost) for acquiring firms<br />

(Moeller, 2007). Admittedly, the success rate of M&A<br />

is relatively very low (Quah and Young, 2005). The<br />

evidence suggests that the intended benefits of<br />

acquisition are often not realized (Pablo, 1994). The<br />

acquiring firm exhibits poor performance in terms of<br />

both accounting and stock market based measures.<br />

Failure of M&A<br />

Mergers and Acquisitions seem to appeal more<br />

business than pure organic growth. In spite of heavy<br />

risk, M & A are preferred to increase profitability and<br />

market share. According to Cartwright and Cooper<br />

(1993), only half of all mergers and acquisitions met<br />

initial expectations. Ravenscraft and Scherer (1989)<br />

found that the profitability of acquired firms declined<br />

after acquisition. Moreover, most of the acquired firms<br />

are later divested or sold off for their unsatisfactory<br />

S. M. Salamat Ullah Bhuiyan*<br />

Mohammed Shahedul Quader**<br />

Shanto Banik***<br />

performance (recent example include divestments<br />

within the automotive industry by Daimler and Ford,<br />

2006/07).<br />

The failure of M & A can be attributed to a number<br />

of factors. These attributes include : a) over inflated<br />

purchase price, b) strategical mismatching, c) poor<br />

financial management and incompetence and d)<br />

failure to achieve projected earning ratio (Cartwright<br />

and Cooper, 1992).<br />

Bettis and Prahalad (1995) identified motivational<br />

problems in M & A. They also identified that<br />

technology, rules, procedures, conventions, beliefs,<br />

culture, and knowledge of acquired firm differ from<br />

those of the acquiring firm. There are also the<br />

problems associated with planning and managing the<br />

integration process (Haspeslagh and Jemison, 1991).<br />

There are differences in organizational culture and<br />

management style and these factors lead to failure of<br />

the newly formed company (Vermeulen and Barkema,<br />

2001; Quah and Young, 2005). In case of M&A,<br />

differences in corporate culture have also been<br />

identified (Weber et al, 1996). The effects of cultural<br />

clash can decrease the commitment and cooperation<br />

of acquired employees (Buono et al, 1985). As a<br />

consequence, shareholders’ value of buying the firm<br />

is dropped (Chatterjee et al, 1992), and the performance<br />

of acquired firm is poor (Very et al, 1997;<br />

Weber, 1996).<br />

Cultural Clash in M & A<br />

Cultural clash is one of the vital elements that<br />

MERGER MERGER AND AND ACQUISITION<br />

ACQUISITION<br />

hinder the marriage of acquired and acquiring firm.<br />

So, most of the M & As could not reach the period of<br />

honeymoon. The success factors anticipated at the<br />

inception mostly go to the dogs. In the M&A,<br />

cherished goals are found to be difficult to reach.<br />

The most dreadful reasons inhabiting the M & A<br />

are outlined : below :<br />

Organizational Culture<br />

Culture is the software of human mind. It<br />

encompasses the beliefs, assumptions and values<br />

shared by the members of an organization. There are<br />

a number of groups and subgroups in the<br />

organization. Each group holds distinct attributes with<br />

its membership (Hogg and Terry, 2000), and<br />

individual’s identity is derived from that membership<br />

(Kramer, 1991). In M & A, individuals are found to<br />

loss their identity—it creates rivalry.<br />

Organizational cultures affect an individual’s<br />

commitment, satisfaction, and longevity within a<br />

group (O’Reilly et al, 1991). <strong>This</strong> culture also<br />

determines the roles of conduct, leadership styles,<br />

administrative procedures, rituals, and customs<br />

within the organization. Moreover, there might be<br />

psychological bonds within the group and these bonds<br />

are not easy to break (Larsson and Lubatkin ,2001).<br />

M & A will cut a sorry figure if the organizational<br />

culture is not properly addressed and comprehended.<br />

National Culture<br />

The national culture may cause tension during the<br />

integration process of two firms. The two firms of two<br />

countries appear to be compatible in organizational<br />

cultures. But the culture of one nation may differ from<br />

that of another. The geography, climate, economy,<br />

political system, racial mix, language, and educational<br />

system of a country may influence its nation (Very<br />

et al, 1997). As a consequence, organizations will<br />

rarely reach the depth and richness of socially shared<br />

understanding.<br />

Acculturation<br />

Berry (1980) finds that acculturation may change<br />

as result of contact between two different cultural<br />

groups. In case of M & A, acculturation process is<br />

essential. There are many individual groups along<br />

with different subcultures within these networks. The<br />

process of acculturation may vary between<br />

individuals and subgroups within an organization<br />

(Seo and Hill, 2005). The greater the cultural gap<br />

between the acquired and the acquiring firms, the<br />

lower the process of adaptation on the part of<br />

executives (Hambrick and Cannella, 1993). Therefore,<br />

poor acculturation is a significant reason for the failure<br />

of M&A.<br />

Social Identity<br />

Social identity of an individual is derived from his<br />

or her membership in group (Kramer, 1991). In the<br />

M&A, this identity was ignored and forced the<br />

executives to adapt the new organizational identities.<br />

Consequently, the employees of an organization react<br />

to the forced adaptation. These lead to serious<br />

organizational conflicts and disbeliefs at the<br />

leadership of the company. Social identity problem<br />

may create conflict between high status employees<br />

and low status employees, senior managers and junior<br />

managers, and the like. It is to be mentioned here that<br />

two blades of scissors are necessary for cutting cloth.<br />

Similarly, harmony of social identity in between firms<br />

is also essential. Due to the dearth of homogeneous<br />

social identity, M&A cannot succeed.<br />

Acculturation Perspective<br />

There are four modes of acculturation : deculturation,<br />

assimilation, separation and integration (Berry,<br />

1980). Deculturation occurs when the members of an<br />

organization do not retain their old culture or replace<br />

it with a new one. In case of assimilation, the members<br />

of an organization adopt the culture of another.<br />

According to separation, members of both organizations<br />

retain the original cultural identity. Integration<br />

ensures some degree of changes in the culture of both<br />

the organizations. The modes of acculturation may<br />

create cultural clash in communicating, planning,<br />

managerial authority, commitment, monitoring and<br />

teamwork (Marks and Mirvis, 1992). Inevitably,<br />

acculturation perspective is responsible for acculturation<br />

stress. It causes low morale, absenteeism, low<br />

turnover and decreased productivity in the<br />

organization (Cartwright and Cooper, 1993b).<br />

Effect of Cultural Clash in M&A<br />

Cultural clash fuels the fire of discontent in merger<br />

and acquisition. As a consequence, a number of pitfalls<br />

and bottlenecks creep in. Most of these hindrances are<br />

very difficult to overcome. However, the effects of<br />

cultural clash caused by M & A are identified as :<br />

General Problems<br />

The cultural clash between organizations creates<br />

some difficulties in communication, commitment,<br />

integration and resource sharing (Brock, 2005).<br />

Communication problems may result from language<br />

differences. Limited managerial and employee<br />

commitment may originate from pressure (Hambrick<br />

and Cannella, 1993, Haspeslagh and Jemison, 1991).<br />

Structural preferences complicate integration (Brock,<br />

2005). The sharing of resources is limited when skills<br />

and resources are not sufficiently pooled between two<br />

merging companies.<br />

MERGER MERGER AND AND AND ACQUISITION<br />

ACQUISITION<br />

Top Management Problems of Culture Clash<br />

Researches reveal that managers and executives<br />

in the acquired team often experience stress, distrust,<br />

and annoyance in working with the acquiring team<br />

(Weber and Schweiger, 1992). On the other hand, the<br />

acquired management team often develops negative<br />

attitudes towards the acquiring organization. The<br />

overall result of these observations is a reduction in<br />

the commitment of the managers of the acquired firm<br />

to the process of integration (Weber and Schweiger,<br />

1992). Moreover, it may shirk responsibilities, lower<br />

job commitment and stimulates voluntary turnover<br />

(Lubatkin et al, 1999).<br />

Remedial actions to resolve Cultural Clash<br />

Researchers conducted research on the postperformance<br />

of M & A. Mostly they identified flop<br />

factors rather than success factors. By analyzing the<br />

performance of firms after M & A, researchers<br />

suggested some measures in order to resolve cultural<br />

clash in between the firms. The recommendations put<br />

forward in order to minimize or eliminate the<br />

conflicting situations are :<br />

Common Identity<br />

It is important to assess the extent of attachment of<br />

employees to their identities. Consequently, necessary<br />

measures could be undertaken to make the new<br />

identities more attractive (Terry and O’Brien, 2001). As<br />

such, single group identity could be formed by<br />

stimulating interaction between the groups (Seo and<br />

Hill, 2005). It will reduce in-group or out-group biases<br />

(Gaertner et al, 1990). New identity may be helpful for<br />

the articulation of a new vision and the creation of<br />

common goals (Buono and Bowditch,1989). Identical<br />

decisions may play a role in shaping a new corporate<br />

identity (Seo and Hill, 2005). The crosscutting<br />

categorization schemes reduce intergroup biases<br />

and tension since the breaking of old categorization lead<br />

to informal interactions. It promotes a better<br />

understanding among the former out-group members<br />

(Haunschild et al, 1994; Seo and Hill, 2005).<br />

Autonomy<br />

Weber et al (1996) suggests that most of the<br />

problems in M&A could be dissolved by allowing the<br />

acquired firm a high degree of autonomy. The<br />

preservation of relative standing may foster the<br />

adaptation to a new identity. On the other hand,<br />

autonomy may make the acquiring firm more<br />

culturally attractive. Autonomy may be granted to<br />

the acquired firm as long as it functions appropriately.<br />

Achieving Acculturation<br />

In case of M & A, acculturation is not always<br />

necessary. However, integration required to achieve<br />

the goals of the acquisition may demand acculturation.<br />

The degree of acculturation may differ from firm to<br />

firm. Most of the clashes could be avoided when two<br />

organizations agree on the preferred mode of<br />

acculturation. Acculturation brings friendliness by<br />

removing hostility (Nahavandi and Malekzadeh,<br />

1988).<br />

Pre-merger Factors and Assessment<br />

The pre-merger cultural attributes play an important<br />

role in determining acculturation (Cartwright and<br />

Coopers, 1992, 1993a, 1993b). Thus it is clear that postmerger<br />

acculturation is highly determined by premerger<br />

cultural attributes. Therefore, both pre and<br />

post-merger factors are important in determining the<br />

performance after the M&A.<br />

Merger Relatedness<br />

Merger relatedness entails higher expectations of<br />

synergies and its results in an increased integration<br />

of human resources (Salter and Weinhold,1979).<br />

Merger relatedness should be minimized in order to<br />

increase post-merger performance when M & A are<br />

unrelated (Larsson and Lubatkin, 2001). In case of<br />

related M & A, operational synergies may be higher<br />

(Larsson and Lubatkin, 2001). Therefore, merger<br />

relatedness can have either a positive or a negative<br />

effect. These effects should be analyzed according to<br />

the specific types of synergies expected to be attained.<br />

Social Controls<br />

Acculturation in M & A may be achieved by social<br />

controls like joint socialization or shared experiences<br />

(Larsson and Lubatkin, 2001). The beliefs and values<br />

of an organization could be better achieved by placing<br />

attention on social control (Bartlett and Ghoshal ,1995).<br />

The chances of clashes could be reduced through<br />

learning and joint problem solving initiatives between<br />

the executives of both the firms (Larsson and<br />

Lubatkin, 2001; Weber and Schweiger, 1992). If the<br />

hierarchical control could be avoided one firm would<br />

consider the other as a partner (Ghoshal and Nohria,<br />

1989).<br />

Conclusion<br />

The analysis on the cultural clash in M & A clearly<br />

reveals that utmost care and sound assessment are<br />

essential for the purpose of integration. It also spells<br />

out that each firm has a unique set of variables<br />

different from others. For the purpose of synergy and<br />

the resolution of conflict, the variables must carefully<br />

be evaluated. Structural assessment is essential to<br />

make an educated guess. Factors like common<br />

identity, autonomy, acculturation, relatedness and<br />

social controls may offer significant insights in order<br />

to meet the cherished goal and to resolve the cultural<br />

conflict. ❐<br />

LEGAL LEGAL EDUCATION<br />

EDUCATION<br />

Legal Education in India—How far the<br />

Second Generation Reforms will meet the<br />

Global Challenges<br />

Since the Vedic times, dispensation of justice has<br />

been considered a sacred ‘Dharma’. Such<br />

dispenser of Justice, the King or any of his<br />

nominee, used to be one considered infallible—the<br />

integrity personified.<br />

The Regulation Act, 1772, recognized for the first<br />

time the legal profession in India. Thereafter, it was<br />

codified in Bengal Regulation VII of 1793, prescribing<br />

the scales of fee to be charged by the Vakils. It was<br />

further modified by the Legal Practitioners Act, 1846,<br />

as a subject to regulate both the Vakils and Barristers.<br />

The Legal Practitioners Act, 1853 and 1879, made<br />

suitable amendments. The Bar Council Act, 1926, was<br />

passed to unify the Bar in India and to give the legal<br />

profession measured autonomy in its affairs wherein<br />

the State Bar Councils and the High Courts were<br />

authorised to regulate the admission and the conduct<br />

of the Advocates practicing in the Courts.<br />

Rule of law became a fundamental doctrine for<br />

governance of country with the adoption of the<br />

Constitution in the post-independence era. Consequently<br />

arose the need to streamline the legal education<br />

in the country and, finally, the Advocates Act, 1961,<br />

replaced the pre-existing laws and gave autonomy to<br />

the Bar Council of India and the Bar Councils of the<br />

States. Under the Act, one of the many functions of the<br />

Bar Council of India is to promote legal education and<br />

lay down standards of such education in consultation<br />

with the Universities imparting such education, and the<br />

Bar Councils of the States. It is also required to maintain<br />

high standards in legal profession and discipline the<br />

Advocates.<br />

Section 7 (1) (h) requires the BCI to “consult the<br />

universities for the purpose of laying down these<br />

standards of legal education”. Section 7(1) (i) of the<br />

Act enables the BCI to grant recognition to universities<br />

whose law degrees shall be sufficient qualification for<br />

enrolment as an advocate. The BCI may, for this<br />

purpose, visit and inspect the universities concerned<br />

whose degrees in law may be recognized for the<br />

purpose of enrolment of law graduates as lawyers.<br />

Similar power is conferred by Section 6(1) (gg) of the<br />

Act on the State Bar Councils in regard to inspection.<br />

Section A of Part IV of the Rules made by the BCI<br />

deals with the five years’ course, Section B deals with<br />

the three years’ course and Section C deals with<br />

inspection. However, in practice, it may not be<br />

* LLB, FCS, FICWA<br />

K P C Rao*<br />

possible for the BCI to consult each and every<br />

University and there is no manner prescribed in the<br />

Advocates Act, 1961, for rendering effective<br />

consultation in this regard.<br />

Today, legal education has to meet not only the<br />

requirements of the Bar and the new needs of trade,<br />

commerce and industry but also the requirements of<br />

globalization. New subjects with international<br />

dimensions have come into legal education. There is<br />

also an enormous need for non-practising law<br />

graduates in trade and commerce. It is also necessary<br />

to allow engineers, Company Secretaries, Chartered<br />

Accountants, scientists and doctors to qualify in law<br />

for non-practising purposes. Indeed, it is gratifying<br />

that some Indian Institute of Technology (“IIT”)<br />

institutions have recently started several courses in<br />

law. The Open University system must also be<br />

allowed to cater to legal education. The Bar Council<br />

of India may, of course, still deal with the minimum<br />

standards of legal education for the purposes of entry<br />

into the Bar but there is a need to have a new regulatory<br />

mechanism that will cater to the aforementioned<br />

present and future needs of the country.<br />

Paradigm shift in conceptual thanking<br />

India currently faces the major challenges in the<br />

field of providing legal education to respond to global<br />

challenges. Although India has emerged as a leading<br />

global hub for the knowledge based service industry<br />

for the past decade, it still needs a revolution to meet<br />

and respond to global challenges in providing<br />

services—particularly by the lawyers, whether in<br />

litigation or non-litigation side.<br />

At present, professional legal education is being<br />

imparted by 913 colleges recognised by the Bar<br />

Council of India and 14 National Law Universities/<br />

Schools established under the State Acts. The Bar<br />

Council of India, under the Advocates Act, 1961, has<br />

made rules to regulate legal education but the<br />

standard of legal education does not meet the present<br />

day requirements of the legal profession. The matter<br />

relating to the legal education has been examined by<br />

the Law Commission of India in its 184th Report on<br />

Legal Education and Professional Training and<br />

Proposals for Amendments to the Advocates Act,<br />

1961, and the UGC Act, 1956 (2002). Earlier, Supreme<br />

The Management Accountant |September 2011 793


LEGAL LEGAL EDUCATION<br />

EDUCATION<br />

Court of India has already made some observations<br />

in this regard in cases like Salem Advocates<br />

Bar Association vs Union of India and V. Sudeer<br />

vs Bar Council of India. In the recent past, the<br />

National Knowledge Commission has made certain<br />

recommendations in its report—particularly in the<br />

area of research in legal education.<br />

The suggestions/recommendations made by these<br />

bodies are briefly discussed hereunder :<br />

(a) The Law Commission’s Recommendations<br />

The Law Commission in its 184th Report, (2002),<br />

(Para 5.16) has pointed out that there are revolutionary<br />

changes which have come into legal education by<br />

reason of developments in information, communication,<br />

transport technologies, intellectual property,<br />

corporate law, cyber law, human rights, ADR,<br />

international business, comparative taxation laws,<br />

space laws, environmental laws etc. and that “The<br />

very nature of law, legal institutions and law practice<br />

are in the midst of a paradigm shift”.<br />

The aim of transnational legal education is not to<br />

create individuals who can ‘practice’ law in a number<br />

of jurisdictions. Although graduates of such a<br />

program may well wish to do so, such ability should<br />

not be seen as an objective in itself, but merely as an<br />

incidental result. The aim of any new program should<br />

be to create lawyers who are comfortable and skilled<br />

in ‘dealing’ with the differing legal systems and<br />

cultures that make up our global community while<br />

remaining strong in one’s own national legal system.<br />

Our lawyers must be trained to specialize in<br />

international trade practices, comparative law, conflict<br />

of laws, international human rights law, environmental<br />

law, gender justice, space law, biomedical law,<br />

bio-ethics, international advocacy etc. They must also<br />

acquire a general knowledge of American, French,<br />

German, Chinese and Japanese law. For example, in<br />

South Korea, in the last 10 years, the curriculum has<br />

been expanded to include not only the above subjects,<br />

but also International Business, International<br />

Contracts, International Civil Procedure and laws of<br />

England, America, France and Germany.<br />

Globalization does not merely mean addition or<br />

inclusion of new subjects in the curriculum as stated<br />

above. While that is, no doubt, an important matter,<br />

the broader issue is to prepare the legal profession to<br />

handle the challenges of globalization and<br />

internationalization <strong>This</strong> obviously goes far beyond<br />

preparing graduates only for practice at the Bar or<br />

for the subordinate judiciary.<br />

(b) Observations made by Supreme Court<br />

In Salem Advocates Bar Association vs Union of India 2<br />

The Supreme Court observed that training of<br />

‘Alternative Dispute Resolution’ system should be<br />

given to law students, lawyers and judges, in view of<br />

the recent amendments to the Code of Civil Procedure,<br />

1908 (Sec.89).<br />

In V. Sudeer vs Bar Council of India, the apex court<br />

observed that a law graduate shall get training from<br />

an Advocates having 10 years’ experience in the Bar,<br />

and should also qualify Bar examination, before<br />

allowing him to be enrolled as an Advocate.<br />

(c) The National Knowledge Commission’s<br />

Recommendations (October 2007)<br />

The National Knowledge Commission, while<br />

deliberating on issues related to knowledge concepts,<br />

not only recognizes legal education as an important<br />

constituent of professional education but also<br />

endorsed the view that the vision of legal education<br />

is to provide justice-oriented education essential to<br />

the realization of values enshrined in the Constitution<br />

of India. In keeping with this vision, legal education<br />

must aim at preparing legal professionals who will<br />

play decisive leadership roles, not only as advocates<br />

practising in courts, but also as academics, legislators,<br />

judges, policy-makers, public officials, civil society<br />

activists as well as legal counsel in the private sector,<br />

maintaining the highest standards of professional<br />

ethics and a spirit of public service. Legal education<br />

should also prepare professionals equipped to meet<br />

the new challenges and dimensions of internationalization,<br />

where the nature and organization of law and<br />

legal practice are undergoing a paradigm shift.<br />

Further, there is need for original and path-breaking<br />

legal research to create new legal knowledge and ideas<br />

that will help meet these challenges in a manner<br />

responsive to the needs of the country and the ideals<br />

and goals of our Constitution.<br />

As part of a consultative process, the National<br />

Knowledge Commission constituted a working group<br />

of experts, including distinguished members of the<br />

Bar, the bench and academia under the chairmanship<br />

of Justice M. Jagannadha Rao to suggest necessary<br />

measures to improve the quality of legal education in<br />

India. After due consultations with stakeholders, the<br />

Commission has identified a few key reform proposals<br />

to bring about a qualitative transformation in<br />

legal education essential to meet present and future<br />

needs and made the following recommendations :<br />

A New Standing Committee for Legal Education-<br />

Regulatory Reform<br />

The National Knowledge Commission recommend<br />

the setting up of a new regulatory mechanism under<br />

the Independent Regulatory Authority for Higher<br />

Education (IRAHE), vested with powers to deal with<br />

all aspects of legal education and whose decisions are<br />

binding on the institutions teaching law and on the<br />

union and state governments.<br />

Prioritize Quality and Develop a Rating System<br />

The development of an independent Rating System<br />

LEGAL LEGAL EDUCATION<br />

EDUCATION<br />

based on a set of agreed criteria to assess the standard<br />

of all institutions teaching law—as a mechanism to<br />

ensure consistent academic quality throughout the<br />

country.<br />

Curriculum Development<br />

The development of contemporary curriculum,<br />

which is integrated with other disciplines and also<br />

ensures regular feedback from stakeholders.<br />

Autonomy may be granted to universities, national<br />

law schools (NLSUs) and other law schools to decide<br />

the core and optional courses to be offered.<br />

Examination System<br />

Revising the prevailing examination systems and<br />

suggest the development of evaluation methods that<br />

test critical reasoning by encouraging essential<br />

analytical, writing and communication skills. The<br />

end-semester examination should be problemoriented,<br />

combining theoretical and problem-oriented<br />

approaches rather than merely test memory. Project<br />

papers, project and subject viva, along with an endsemester<br />

examination to be considered as pedagogic<br />

methods imperative for improving quality.<br />

Measures to attract and retain talented faculty<br />

To attract and retain talented faculty, the Commission<br />

recommended better incentives, including<br />

improving remuneration and service conditions.<br />

Developing a Research Tradition in law schools<br />

and universities<br />

The Commission has emphasized that the need for<br />

creating a tradition of research in law schools and<br />

universities is imperative, if India has to transform<br />

itself from being only a consumer of available legal<br />

knowledge to being a leading producer in the world<br />

of new legal knowledge and ideas.<br />

Centers for Advanced Legal Studies and<br />

Research (CALSAR)<br />

The Commission also stated that there is need to<br />

set up four autonomous, well networked Centers for<br />

Advanced Legal Studies and Research (CALSAR), one<br />

in each region, to carry out cutting edge research on<br />

various aspects of law and also serve as a think-tank<br />

for advising the government in national and<br />

international fora.<br />

Financing of legal education<br />

It is for law schools and universities to decide the<br />

level of fees, but as a norm, fees should meet at least<br />

20% of the total expenditure in universities. <strong>This</strong><br />

should be subject to two conditions : first, needy<br />

students should be provided with a fee waiver plus<br />

scholarships to meet their costs; second, universities<br />

should not be penalized by the UGC for the resources<br />

raised from higher fees through matching deductions<br />

from their grants-in aid.<br />

Dimensions of Internationalization<br />

Building world class law schools today will require<br />

creatively responding to the growing international<br />

dimensions of legal education and of the legal<br />

profession, where it is becoming increasingly<br />

necessary to incorporate international and comparative<br />

perspectives, along with necessary understanding<br />

of domestic law. Suggested initiatives to promote such<br />

international perspectives include building collaborations<br />

and partnerships with noted foreign universities<br />

for award of joint/dual degrees; finding ways of<br />

evolving transnational curricula to be taught jointly<br />

by a global faculty through video conferencing and<br />

internet modes; as well as creating international<br />

faculty, international courses, and international<br />

exchange opportunities among students.<br />

Technology for dissemination of Legal Knowledge<br />

For maximum dissemination of legal knowledge,<br />

the commission recommended that all information<br />

available in the Indian Law Institute (“ILI”), Supreme<br />

Court Library, Indian Society for International Law<br />

(“ISIL”) as well as those of all law schools, universities<br />

and public institutions in the country, be networked<br />

and digitized. Such networking is in addition to the<br />

need for adequate infrastructure such as computers,<br />

law journals, legal databases and excellent libraries<br />

in the institutions teaching law.<br />

(d) The Vision Statement 2010-2012 of the Bar<br />

Council of India, (June 2010)<br />

The Vision Statement recognised the need to<br />

address various issues as well as the several different<br />

constituents of the legal profession in India and<br />

identified some areas such as —<br />

1. Inadequate quality of legal education and<br />

infrastructure, and<br />

2. Lack of relevant skills training to meet with the<br />

ever-changing demands of the modern world,<br />

as two of the issues affecting the image of the<br />

legal profession in India.<br />

One of the steps identified in the Vision Statement<br />

towards resolving these issues is creating clear quality<br />

standards for legal education and a common entry<br />

level standard for entering law schools across the<br />

country. In furtherance of the objective of improving<br />

the standards of legal education and the modernisation<br />

of the legal profession in the country stated in<br />

the Vision Statement, the Bar Council of India intends<br />

to implement a series of measures this year, which<br />

law schools across India must put in place by the<br />

Academic Year 2011-2012.<br />

As the things stands now, the issue as to passing<br />

the All-India Bar Examination which is mandatory<br />

for commencement of practice as advocate in court,<br />

has been challenged in writ petitions in nine High<br />

Courts, including Madras, Bombay, Punjab and<br />

Haryana, and Gujarat; and the matter came up before<br />

the apex court during 1 st week of August 2010. The<br />

EDUCATION<br />

BCI said that all these pending writ petitions involved<br />

the same/substantially the same question of law and<br />

were pending adjudication. It would be in the interest<br />

of justice that the petitions were transferred to the<br />

Supreme Court.<br />

However, a three-judge Bench of Chief Justice of<br />

India S.H. Kapadia and Justices K.S. Radhakrishnan<br />

and Swatanter Kumar told the BCI counsel that it<br />

would be desirable if the petitions were heard by one<br />

High Court. Accordingly, the counsel said it would<br />

be better if the matter was heard in the Delhi High<br />

Court.<br />

While dismissing the case 4 the Apex Court<br />

observed that a six-month waiting period to attain<br />

the license to practice was not unreasonable and<br />

remarked “Let the legal reforms begin somewhere’’.<br />

The Bench issued a notice and directed the matter to<br />

be listed for further hearing.<br />

Second Generation Reforms : National Consultation<br />

In the National Consultation, various issues<br />

relating to legal education were discussed, e.g., the<br />

objects of legal education, the priorities in legal<br />

education reform, the roles and responsibilities in this<br />

regard of the Government, Bar Council of India,<br />

Universities and Management of Law Colleges; what<br />

makes a system of legal education world class in<br />

competitive excellence and what is the agenda for<br />

educationists, jurists, judges and advocates for<br />

directing the system towards revival and rejuvenation;<br />

given the changes in the role of law-trained<br />

persons, it was also examined how can legal<br />

pedagogy teaching methods respond to the changing<br />

demands, assessed how far they fulfill the demands<br />

of knowledge, skills, attitudes and ethics required for<br />

legally trained persons.<br />

Due to unprecedented and fast changes in the<br />

society and economy, the law curriculum lags behind<br />

and is not sufficiently reflective of the knowledge and<br />

skills required of legally trained persons. Curriculum<br />

development is a continuing process for which<br />

teachers have the primary responsibility. The issues<br />

as to how does the curriculum reflect itself in syllabi<br />

and teaching plans will be the highlight of this<br />

Consultation for improving standard of legal<br />

education in the country.<br />

In order to be able to effectively implement the<br />

reforms in legal education in India, law teaching must<br />

focus on developing students’ critical and analytical<br />

abilities through classroom exercises and training<br />

designed for the said purpose. In order to develop a<br />

framework to bring about these changes, it has been<br />

considered worth to examine the experiences of law<br />

teachers in other jurisdictions and to identify the scope<br />

for implementing effective teaching and training<br />

methods employed successfully elsewhere.<br />

One of the neglected areas of legal education in<br />

the country is postgraduate studies in law and<br />

research. <strong>This</strong> has resulted in poor quality research<br />

output and dearth of quality law teachers to serve<br />

the ever-expanding legal education sector.<br />

Professionalism demands learning at work or<br />

learning by doing under professional supervision and<br />

to keep abreast with professional developments. Most<br />

of the Law Colleges/Law Schools at present are not<br />

adequately equipped for the tasks involved. Recently,<br />

the Directorate of Legal Education, established by the<br />

Bar Council of India, has the challenge to organize,<br />

supervise and deliver continuing legal education to a<br />

million legal professionals, growing by ten per cent<br />

every year. Taking lessons from the Bar of other<br />

developed countries, we will consider the ways and<br />

means by which such partnership can be established,<br />

and can be made functional to the advantage of<br />

practicing professionals as well as of the Law<br />

Colleges/Law Schools.<br />

The legal profession is not a business, rather, it is<br />

a profession requiring certain standards and etiquette<br />

to be followed by its members The fundamental aim<br />

of legal ethics is to maintain the honour and dignity<br />

of the profession, to secure a spirit of friendly<br />

cooperation between the Bench and the Bar in the<br />

promotion of the highest standards of administration<br />

of justice. It includes standards of conduct both of<br />

the members of the profession and the judiciary. The<br />

Bar Council of India has laid down certain standards<br />

of conduct and etiquette of the members of the Bar. It<br />

will be discussed in this Consultation what it means<br />

to be a member of the legal profession and also reevaluate<br />

the ethical standards with a view to<br />

enhancing the level of service provided by the legal<br />

profession to the community at large.<br />

The role of law schools in social transformation—<br />

particularly of the disadvantaged sections envisaged<br />

by the Indian Constitution—will be another major<br />

highlight of this Consultation for purpose of inclusive<br />

growth. It will be examined how can law schools<br />

contribute towards law reform for the marginalized<br />

and discriminated sections of society, and what is<br />

the role of law schools in legal aid services and<br />

administration of justice; and also to make law schools<br />

partners in social transformation, social justice and<br />

inclusive development.<br />

Students in the National Law Schools, upon<br />

graduation, prefer to opt for a career in major<br />

corporate law firms in contrast to a career in litigation<br />

or the Government. At the same time, the demand<br />

for corporate lawyers in light of India’s globalizing<br />

economy is increasing at a rapid pace. The issues for<br />

consideration in this Consultation are why do students<br />

from National Law Schools seem to prefer careers in<br />

corporate law firms; how can the legal education<br />

system cater to the emerging needs of the new<br />

economy. We will also examine how to organize<br />

training and education for alternate dispute resolution<br />

systems, especially arbitration.<br />

A large number of legal education providers in<br />

India are privately administered law colleges. While<br />

National Law Schools and Government Law Colleges<br />

cater to the needs of a few in terms of legal education,<br />

the needs of the many are still met by the private<br />

sector. If legal education is to be improved, it is<br />

essential to maintain, monitor and promote standards<br />

in education throughout the range of legal education<br />

institutions in various parts of the country, including<br />

private law colleges. The quality of legal education<br />

provided in these institutions differs widely from<br />

institution to institution, and there is a need to ensure<br />

that certain minimum standards are maintained by<br />

all such law colleges, at the same time encouraging<br />

the best to compete with the State-funded institutions.<br />

After the consultations at ‘National Consultation<br />

for Second Generation Reforms in Legal Education’<br />

on May 1 and 2, 2010 at Vigyan Bhavan, New Delhi,<br />

Dr . M. Veerappa Moily presented Vision Statement<br />

for Second Generation Reform in Legal Education. The<br />

vision statement highlighted :<br />

The first generation of reforms established the<br />

National Law Schools and demonstrated that India<br />

too can have institutions that impart an affordable<br />

and world class legal education. The second<br />

generation of reforms shall focus on the three pillars<br />

of Expansion, Inclusion, & Excellence. These reforms<br />

shall be an investment in the Indian lawyer and in the<br />

Indian student of law.<br />

Expansion<br />

Expansion will focus on a multi-disciplinary<br />

approach encouraged across the board to enable<br />

more students to access affordable and quality legal<br />

education. An efficient justice system plays a vital role<br />

in our economic development. Reducing pendencies<br />

alone can add about 2% to our GDP and it is our legal<br />

education system that will provide the manpower to<br />

fuel this required efficiency :<br />

1. Establish four national level institutions at the<br />

regional level as Centres of Excellence focussed<br />

on research and upgradation of faculty skills—<br />

these may be called Institutes of Advanced<br />

Legal Studies & Research<br />

2. There will be a National Law University established<br />

in every state as a school of excellence<br />

3. Each of the 913 existing law schools to be<br />

evaluated by an empowered committee and<br />

classified as per standards and needs for the<br />

purpose of upgrading such colleges and<br />

creating and providing opportunities to the<br />

students<br />

4. PPP model for law schools with specialised<br />

focus to be encouraged<br />

5. Autonomous colleges that will meet demanding<br />

accreditation standards to be encouraged<br />

6. Continuing learning centres to be established<br />

in collaboration with the Bar Council’s<br />

Directorate of Legal Education.<br />

Inclusion<br />

Inclusion will focus on creating a system by which<br />

a first generation lawyer from a backward and<br />

poverty- stricken class can rub shoulders with the best<br />

of the best at the national level :<br />

1. Establish a National Law Library that can also<br />

be accessed by all citizens online. Law libraries will<br />

also be established in every district of the country.<br />

The Ministry will establish an online legal e-learning<br />

network where citizens can access lectures and classes<br />

on legal subjects in real-time.<br />

2. To create an overall framework of inclusive<br />

participation in opportunities, including internships<br />

in courts and like bodies for students and legal<br />

professionals, so that there is upward mobility for<br />

every legal professional to be able to access<br />

professional opportunities at the High Courts and<br />

Supreme Court.<br />

3. Scholarships and fellowships to be made<br />

available for women and students from economically<br />

and socially weaker sections in order for them to<br />

access various opportunities for a legal education and<br />

a professional career.<br />

Excellence<br />

Excellence will focus on identifying and nurturing<br />

talent by providing every opportunity to every<br />

individual wishing to be a student of law :<br />

1. An opportunity for students to specialize in<br />

various aspects of the law during their education itself<br />

in order to create a pool of talent based on domain<br />

expertise and core competence.<br />

2. A continuous focus on social responsibility and<br />

a strong professional ethic during every step of the<br />

educational process. Every practitioner should have<br />

an unfailing commitment to the integrity and working<br />

of the legal system and reinvigorate the oversight<br />

mechanism for professional misconduct in order for<br />

it to take swift action, including debarring those that<br />

violate professional ethics and standards.<br />

3. An online continuous career development and<br />

monitoring program to be established founded on a<br />

national database of all legal practitioners in the<br />

country. <strong>This</strong> will be a robust tracking system by<br />

which talent can be identified and lauded. The<br />

database will track domain expertise and professional<br />

development for lawyers and will publicly recognize<br />

excellence as well as detect inefficiencies. <strong>This</strong> system<br />

The Management Accountant |September 2011 797


LEGAL LEGAL EDUCATION<br />

EDUCATION<br />

will be the basis for identifying lawyers for various<br />

roles and appointments including law officers and<br />

judges.<br />

4. The Indian Law Institute to refocus on its core<br />

mission to promote research in law as well as conduct<br />

postgraduate specialist courses in various fields of law<br />

by recruiting faculty of global standard.<br />

5. The Delivery of Justice and Law Reform Trust<br />

of India—in collaboration with the bar, the bench and<br />

leading business schools in India—will develop<br />

courses for court administrators and managers.<br />

6. We will develop a system to create a cadre of<br />

paralegals in various sectors of legal practise who may<br />

then serve as legal secretaries and strengthen legal<br />

aid and literacy programs.<br />

A comprehensive strategy that encapsulates both<br />

“Top to Bottom” and “Bottom to Top” approaches<br />

will see lawyers at all levels participating in continuing<br />

legal education programs. We will demonstrate that<br />

the Indian legal and justice system is efficient,<br />

responsive, globally competitive, quick and orderly,<br />

with judges and lawyers who can rise up to global<br />

challenges and the future needs of the country.<br />

The way forward<br />

As early as 1917, when serious initiatives were<br />

taken to reform legal education at the Yale Law School,<br />

it was noted that the purpose of the law school should<br />

be “the study of law and its evolution—historically,<br />

comparatively, analytically, and critically—with the<br />

purpose of directing its development in the future,<br />

improving its administration and on perfecting its<br />

methods of legislation”.<br />

The central question we need to ask ourselves in<br />

India is whether our law schools are fulfilling this<br />

responsibility adequately, and if not, what we need<br />

to do, so that we are able to address the fundamental<br />

issues concerning legal education that were raised<br />

over 90 years ago in the United States. Legal education<br />

reforms in India should go along with the<br />

encouragement of global philanthropic initiatives, so<br />

that resources are available to maintain international<br />

standards to impart quality education and conduct<br />

impact-oriented research.<br />

Barring Foreign Law Firms from practsing in India<br />

as was held in Lawyers Collective vs Bar Council of<br />

India and others by the Bombay High Court is not a<br />

solution, as the judgment will be having its own<br />

ramifications in the global sphere for the legal<br />

practitioners from India who want to take up legal<br />

practice outside India. It is now imminent for the<br />

Central Government/Bar Council to legislate and<br />

frame appropriate rules in consultation with all the<br />

stakeholders, with regard to entry of foreign law firms<br />

in India and to arrive at a judicious decision to put to<br />

rest the threat being posed by the foreign law firms.<br />

Instead of wasting of time and energies on whether<br />

legal education in India is to be liberated from the<br />

dominant control of the Bar Councils or over<br />

superseding of regulatory bodies (it is immaterial<br />

whether it is Law Ministry’s domain or HRD<br />

Ministry’s) under a proposed super-regulatory<br />

authority as suggested by the National Knowledge<br />

Commission and the Yashpal Committee, let us<br />

concentrate our focus and energies to convert the new<br />

challenges into opportunities in the global arena.<br />

<strong>Issue</strong>s to be addressed to meet the Global<br />

challenges<br />

1. Curriculum and teaching<br />

The new and emerging law schools cannot afford<br />

to limit their focus to teaching and research on issues<br />

relating to Indian law. In fact, the appetite of Indian law<br />

students for understanding international and<br />

comparative law has significantly increased over the<br />

years, given their participation in international moot<br />

competitions that range from issues such as maritime<br />

law to humanitarian law to dispute resolution. The<br />

most challenging task is to strike a proper balance to<br />

ensure that students are taught a fair mix of courses that<br />

give them knowledge and training in Indian law, but,<br />

at the same time, prepare them for facing the challenges<br />

of globalisation, whereby domestic legal mechanisms<br />

interact with both international and foreign legal<br />

systems. <strong>This</strong> interaction is going to deepen in the years<br />

to come and our law schools must prepare themselves<br />

to face this challenge posed by globalisation.<br />

2. Knowledge and faculty research<br />

Hiring of good faculty has been a challenge in law<br />

schools in India and abroad. There is a need to have a<br />

global focus in hiring faculty for Indian law schools.<br />

Of course success will depend on the school’s ability<br />

to provide the right kind of intellectual environment<br />

and financial and other incentives for Indian or foreign<br />

scholars to teach and pursue research in India and to<br />

contribute to its growth story.<br />

Globalisation of legal research has become a<br />

universal trend. Legal scholars working in a particular<br />

country or researching on the law and legal systems<br />

of that country do not limit their research to that<br />

country or its neighbours. With the development of<br />

web-based research and other online research tools<br />

and databases, there has been a remarkable<br />

transformation in the development of comparative<br />

and international law research. It is important for<br />

global law schools to have or provide access to legal<br />

material from jurisdictions all over the world. These<br />

need to be constantly updated to keep up with the<br />

changing dimensions of law in all societies. There is<br />

798 The Management Accountant |September 2011


LEGAL LEGAL EDUCATION<br />

EDUCATION<br />

also a need to promote global exchanges, including<br />

bilateral and multilateral exchange of faculty and<br />

students, with a view to aid global knowledge relating<br />

to law and legal institutions. All this needs huge<br />

resources. It is not possible for the governments of<br />

developing countries, such as India, to support them<br />

through public funding. Concrete steps need to be<br />

taken to encourage global philanthropic initiatives.<br />

3. Programmes and international experience<br />

Indian law schools need to consider innovation<br />

when it comes to the degree programmes offered by<br />

them. Introduction of uniform syllabi coupled with<br />

practical aspects such as moot courts etc. on par with<br />

the international standards to meet the challenge of<br />

providing the highest quality legal education in the<br />

demanding and competitive international environment<br />

of the 21st century.<br />

4. Interaction and collaborations<br />

The law schools of the future ought to provide<br />

academic space for engaging in teaching and cutting<br />

edge research on issues of global significance. The<br />

institutions ought to constantly reinvent themselves<br />

for facing the challenges of globalisation through<br />

exchange and collaboration programmes. <strong>This</strong> has<br />

different implications for faculty, students, and for<br />

the development of teaching and research programmes.<br />

In this regard, it is important to note that token<br />

arrangements of collaboration may not be helpful to<br />

the institutions involved. There is a need to develop<br />

a shared understanding of the nature of exchange and<br />

collaborative programmes being established for them<br />

to be effective and beneficial for all the parties<br />

concerned.<br />

5. Philanthropy and non-profit initiatives<br />

Legal education in India needs reforms that would<br />

support the establishment of global law schools<br />

combining the best traditions of public educational<br />

institutions with the needed flexibility, freedom, and<br />

autonomy enjoyed by private initiatives—all within<br />

the public good framework of a non-profit endeavour.<br />

In this context, there is a need to actively seek and<br />

encourage philanthropic initiatives in the field of legal<br />

education. The system of creating endowments—both<br />

individual and corporate—has to be significantly<br />

promoted. For this, the initiatives ought to come from<br />

private individuals and institutions ready and willing<br />

to support the establishment of global educational<br />

institutions with the highest standards in teaching and<br />

research for the purpose of creating and disseminating<br />

knowledge.<br />

Reform of legal education in India requires global<br />

philanthropic initiatives that can help the country build<br />

the educational institutions of the future. Such law<br />

schools in India will be able to attract the best of faculty<br />

from India and the world. They will also be able to create<br />

world class infrastructure to attract the best students<br />

from everywhere, create internationally reputed<br />

research centres and promote research activities that<br />

are beneficial to the country and the international<br />

community, and enhance the ability to bring together<br />

brilliant minds to solve the problems of humanity. The<br />

future of legal education in India should be linked to<br />

the promotion of global philanthropic initiatives for it<br />

to be sustainable. The deterioration in standards in the<br />

quality of faculty in law schools in India and the paucity<br />

of research output have to be addressed with sincerity.<br />

There is a need to create endowments of the kind that<br />

reputed law schools of the world have managed to do<br />

with a view to involve public-spirited private individuals<br />

and corporations to support the development of<br />

law schools.<br />

6. Infrastructure and resources in law schools<br />

If Indian law schools have to meet the demands of<br />

the changing global society, the training we impart to<br />

our law students ought to be thoroughly re-examined.<br />

Our law schools need infrastructure and resources<br />

comparable to global universities, particularly when<br />

access to such universities is available to both our<br />

faculty and students. Our law schools have to seek a<br />

dramatic transformation in providing infrastructure<br />

and resources to our faculty and students.<br />

Library facilities in our law schools need to be<br />

substantially upgraded, for which huge resources<br />

have to be mobilised. The annual budget (including<br />

for library staff) for the law library at the Harvard<br />

Law School is $14 million (around Rs. 70 crore) and<br />

that of the Yale Law School is over $6 million (around<br />

Rs. 30 crore). Inevitably, the resources that are needed<br />

to reach international standards for providing global<br />

infrastructure for our law schools have to be raised<br />

through library endowments and private donations.<br />

Though it may not be possible for us to improve<br />

the situation and give overnight solutions in this<br />

regard, let us take the clue from a statement of<br />

Dr. Radhakrishnan, the then President of India, who<br />

observed over a half a century ago that “Our colleges<br />

of law do not hold a place of high esteem either at<br />

home or abroad, nor has law become an area of<br />

profound scholarship and enlightened research “ and<br />

introspect ourselves whether there is any change in<br />

our legal education system till then and put our<br />

collective wisdom and efforts to bring in the required<br />

corrections in the existing system, so that Indian legal<br />

education can face the global challenges and will ac<br />

hieve the uphill task in rewriting this statement of Dr.<br />

Radhakrishnan. ❐<br />

You said it, we did it !!!<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Recently our Institute had given awards to various corporate business houses for excellence in cost management.<br />

<strong>This</strong> is very positive step in recognizing importance of cost management in the companies.<br />

However, our students and members are may not be aware of the cost management practices implemented by these<br />

award winner companies due to which they won this prestigious award.<br />

I request you to check the feasibility of discussing such award winning cost management practices implemented by<br />

these companies in our journal “The Management Accountant” to help members and students to update their knowledge,<br />

gain ideas for cost management and also help them replicate such good practices in their organisations.<br />

I think this will also help members and students<br />

To do value addition to the company they are working.<br />

To earn and establish reputation for brand CMA<br />

To recognize distinctive space for CMA in corporate culture<br />

Thanking you in advance for your kind consideration of this suggestion<br />
