Background背景
Babushka’s Baubles的产品都是一些中看不中用的物品——珠宝和时尚配饰,他们成立于1975年。他们凭借低廉的劳动力成本,主要在区域和全球范围内生产和销售。最近出现了问题,制造由几个分包商导致了质量的不同,从而导致供应最终中断。
Babushka’s Baubles is an international manufacturer of jewellery and fashion accessories, established in 1975. They manufacture mainly in a region with low labour costs and sell worldwide. Recently there have been problems with the quality of manufacturing by several sub-contractors, leading to disruption in supply.The current share price is 380 pence per share.And Benny’s Bling plc was established in 2004 by a highly regarded young designer. Manufacturing is in a country with higher costs but more reliable quality. Both businesses are highly seasonal with the main manufacturing period being July to September and sales peaking at Christmas.
Revenue this year was $42million, anddecrease of 7per cent,on last year, and operating profit after tax was $81 million,an increase of 86 per cent.The increase in revenue is being passed on to shareholders,as a dividend of 8 cents per share, fully franked, making cents per ordinary share fully franked for the year
Babushka’s Baubles is an international manufacturer of jewellery and fashion accessorieswith an increasingly strong financial and shareholder focus during the year,
The main user groups and their needs主要用户群和他们的需求

The nature of the company’s activities
The principal activities of the Group during the financial year were the provision of jewellery and fashion accessories.
Babushka’s Baubles offer specialised and fashionableprograms to young man mainly. The company‘s aim is to ensure young manbegin and continue to make notable and fashionable choices, as well as developing and enhancing their fashion favourite.
The productionand the activities offered in this building block are based on the individual young man and lady. Each ladyis able to get favourite production according to their own unique abilities and special service.
This year it wasbeyond 2.2% ofnet sales. Finance and servicing fee income includes jewellery and fashion accessories. I would question why this wasincreased (as a percentage of sales) for 2008. A possible explanation could be a significant change which had a higher percentage of servicefinanced or possibly theyincreasesfinance charges (i.e.bellowed interest rates to their customers or gave cash terms which resulted in collecting morefinance charges.)
What is more, this year, cost of serviceand occupancy costs were less. General and administrative expenses have also decreased both in terms of real dollars and as a percentage of service.
Balance review平衡回顾
Babushka’s Baubles has inclined from last year and is upindustry averages. The Current Ratio which measures a company's ability to meet its current obligations has increased .The Quick Ratio (a more liquid measurement which compares only cash plus receivables to current liabilities) has also inclinedReceivable turns (net servicedivided by receivables) has been increased. This is a faster turn than the industry average probably due to the financing arrangement whereby the company servicetheir receivables to an outside company. The change from 2005may have something to do with changing to a different factoring company and probably also increased due to the servicing of receivables to an outside party (receivables are actually held on the books until collected.)
When a company generates a profit, management has one of two choices: they can either pay it out to shareholders as a cash dividend, or retain the earnings and reinvest them in the business(Joshua kennon,, 2006).
Fixed assets and other long term assets remained relatively changed from 2005.
Cash and cash equivalents is 57.641, trade and other receivables is 36.675, other financial assets, inventories and the total current assets is 216,800.Fixed Assets module handles all transactions related to fixed assets, for lease as well as for own use. It also provides for information like asset enhancement, physical verification, insurance and asset tracking(net, 2007).
The companyhas re-invested 95.495 million into earlyproduction-developingover the last threeyears. Current tax payables of the company are 3,061,Non-current liabilities is Deferred tax liabilities is 57, 539, Current Operating lease liability is 999, Non-current Operating lease liability is 16,480. And we know that this is a timing issue due to the timing of payables or the general need for increased cash. The borrowing rate on the line of credit is less than the prime.
Stockholder's equity incline was due to the net saleson the income statement and the repurchase of treasury stock. The purchase appears to be in relation to the repurchase of stock from former participants in the Company's ESOP plan (employee stock ownership plan.) The study was guided by an advisory board that included policy makers, academics, labour representatives and private equity executives(Andrew ross sorkin, 2005).
Operation efficiency review操作复习效率
Operations grew significantly through the year. The total number of factories increased from 660 to 933 (905 in Australia, 28 in New Zealand), a growth of 41 per cent. The Company continued to acquire high quality groups and excellent sites and centres in outstanding locations. A strengthening of operational structure has enabledthecompany to focus on and measure quantitative and qualitative performance indicators more effectively. Systems have continued to improve and have reduced the administrative burden for theirstaff, enabling them to spend additional time with the sale. Marketing has been enhanced this year,with a number of major campaigns boosting occupancies. The breadth and scale of operations now means that company have also moved into the ASX Top 100 list of companies. The Company and its operations are now attracting the attention of a new set of institutional shareholders and one of our priorities is to engage with this market to build understanding. The reduction was primarily the result of the increase in notes payable (which I believe is the credit line) and is not an indication of a more efficient use of corporate assets. The equity turnover (net sales/stockholder's equity) has increased which is the result of increased equity (due to the company expansion).
Cash and cash equivalents is 57.641, trade and other receivables is 36.675, other financial assets, inventories and the total current assets is 216,800.This shows the stability on the asset side and indicates that the increasingof stockholder's equity from net income was funded by decreased liabilities.

The long term debt to equity ratio has decreased slightly from primarily due to the increasingin equity (due to the income profit.) Long term debt to total capital has improved slightly, two factors showed this - the decreased short term borrowing and the increasing stockholder's equity. Total debt to total capital has decreased from .73to .64,which is also a factor of the decreased borrowing and a increasingin stockholder's equity. Total liabilities to net worth (or stockholder’s equity) have decreased from 2.73to 1.75. This is an important indication of the decreased leverage of the company.
The comparison analysis between Babushka’sBaubles plc Finance and Benny’s Bling plcfinance
In the analysis of corporate financial, the analysis of the key ratio is more important through which can evaluate the financial situation, business results and cash flow, as well as find and solve business problems.

COGS = (.7)($430,000) = $60,000
365 days/60 days per payment period = 6.08 for the payables turnover ratio
$60,000/6.08 = $0.958

Conclusion 结论
Babushka’sBaubles plc has experienced a substantial profit for the year ended 2008. Babushka’sBaubles has consolidated its position in the giant market with the recent acquisition of jewellery and fashion accessories in Texas giving us a total of 417 owned centres and 108 franchised canters in the US. The profit was funded through less short-term debt and lower payables, thus making the company stronger. The Company is also in the process of changing the company's make-up by expanding division. All of these factors lead to concern below the long term health of the company. And at this point, the equity position of the company, is substantial at the consolidated profit t of the Group for the financial year after providing for income tax amounted to $110,000 (2005: $34,000 AIFRS).
If there are quarterly compliance issues with the bank, are they in compliance or have they been waived? This will indicate whether the bank and the Industrial Revenue Bond holders are working with the company.In addition, security in your inventory should be requested, if possible.
