PREFACE

As per requirement to complete MBA (Finance) at IMS (Institute of Management


Sciences) I completed my Internship Program at “Pak Elektron Limited (PEL). This
was 6 weeks internship program which prepared me to better understand the
practicality of different tools of finance and accounts.

At the end of training program, it is required to submit an Internship report in


university. The Internship report has been completed, which is a result of one’s time
taking efforts. I prepared this report as what I observed and what so ever I learnt here
in PEL. I also got the help of company’s published material. For instance,
introductory part of this report is mostly taken from “Company Profile”, all raw
financial figures from “Annual Report” of PEL and knowledge of finance from
Finance department.

Major portion of this report has been devoted to Company’s introduction and
particularly to its management system. Efforts were to explore their hierarchies and to
identify the channels of workflow here in PEL. Financial analysis is conducted to
oversee company’s financial position. Finally, I drew conclusions and suggestions for
the betterment of company’s performance. At the end of report I added appendixes to
cover those areas, which were required for further details.

INTERNSHIP REPORT

History

PAK ELEKTRON LIMITED was set up in 1956 as a joint venture with one of the
largest and renowned manufacturers of electrical equipment Messrs. AEG of West
Germany for manufacturing Transformers, Switchgears and Electric Motors etc. The
entire job of machinery requirements and layout of the factory building was planned
and implemented by AEG who produced very well balanced facility for the design
and manufacture of the above equipment and the commercial production was
commenced on 22 November 1956.

Up to 1962, when AEG finally phased out, the designing and manufacturing of all
equipment was carried out jointly by AEG experts and PEL personnel. PEL staff, in
the meantime, had received specialized training in USA and West Germany which
enabled PEL to establish itself as the leading manufacturers of electrical equipment in
the country with an excellent reputation for high quality and thus PEL came to be
known as "THE QUALITY CONSCIOUS COMPANY".

After conclusion of agreement with AEG, total share holding of AEG was purchased
by the then sponsors - Malik Brothers. The production continued with AEG designs
with much greater emphasis on the quality and reliability of the products which
earned unique distinction of supplying electrical equipment to projects of paramount
national importance like Mangla Dam and Tarbela Dam Projects. PEL equipment was
approved by consultants of international repute including Preece Cardew & Rider
(England), Binnie & Partners (England), Harza Engineering International (USA) and
Miner & Miner International Inc. (USA).

The majority shares were acquired from Malik Brothers by Saigol Group on 11
October 1978 and immediately on takeover the new management chalked out both
long term and short term plans to put the company back on the path of progress. As a
part of first phase of its BMR Programmer the new management injected the
additional working capital of Rupees 8.98 million and Bridge Loan of Rupees 7.50
million (against the public issue of its shares) was provided by the ICP-led

INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCES, B.Z.U. MULTAN

INTERNSHIP REPORT

Consortium. As a part of long term plans, the manufacturing of window type Air
conditioners was taken up in 1981 and was immediately established for quality.

The company launched the second phase of its BMR and expansion of the existing
product line in the year 1987 and imported machinery for the manufacture of
Refrigerators and Deep-freezers for a total value of Rupees 22.11 million. For the
project National Bank of Pakistan - the leading bank of the company provided the
financing. Like Air conditioners these products have also been well received by the
local market which speaks highly of the confidence the consumer has developed in
the quality products manufactured by the company.

During the year 1990 the company had signed an agreement with Messrs HITACHI
of Japan for the manufacture of Vacuum Circuit Breakers.

The company has entered into an agreement with Pakistan Industrial Credit and
Investment Corporation (PICIC) for a foreign currency as well as local currency loan
of Rupees 25 million for the expansion, balancing, modernization and replacement of
the existing plant. The machinery has come into operation in October 1991 and with
the balancing, modernization and replacement of machinery, the production capacity
of Refrigerator Section will reach a level of 252,450 cubic feet.

The management of the Company decided to further expand its operation by


establishing a plant for the manufacture of compressors for refrigerators and deep
freezers. The technical know-how agreement has been signed with M/S NECCHI
Compressors, Italy for the assembly and progressive manufacturing of compressors
for refrigerators and deep freezers.

Pak Electron Limited is known for its continuous research and development and
transfer of technology from abroad. The Company commissioned its plant for the
manufacture of Electricity Meters in Pakistan in June 1994 with the technical
collaboration and under license from M/S Asea Brown Boveri United State of
America (A.B.B. USA). The plant consists of most modern and latest numerically
controlled electronic machines with robotics technology and is capable to produce

The structure of the Pak Elektron Limited is Hybrid. Because the organization
combines the characteristics of functional and divisional structure in its organizational
structure. As the organization has grown large and have several products and markets
so it is organized into self contained divisions of some type. Functions that are
important to each product and market are decentralized to the self contained units.
However, some functions that are relatively stable and required economies of scale
and in depth specialization are centralized at the management level. The functions of
Accounting, Finance, Human resources, Industry relations, R&D and Information
technology are same for the both divisions but each division has its own separate
functions of sales, production and marketing.

IMPORT SECTION/FP DEPARTMENT


PEL is an engineering concerns company introducing Deep freezer, Air-conditioner,
Refrigerator, Energy meters, Transformer and Switchgears. Not even any one product
is entirely manufactured in PEL by locally available raw material. But practice is that,
company imports a large portion of raw material from foreign suppliers.

Import section plays an integral role in achieving cooperate goals, as it is responsible


for all imports concerned matters. Usually, this department imports:

• Raw-material

• Parts

• Equipment

• Machinery

Import activities are started from marketing- plan, in general. This plan is forwarded
in systematic way and finally import plan is formulated. On the bases of import plan,
import section allocates their activities.

IMPORT PLAN WORKFLOW

Marketing Plan

sales figure but environmental conditions, too. That‘s why sales plan is also
maintained on rolling bases.

Production Plan

Production department takes it critically against the crucial maters of plant capacity,
manpower and time constrains. With mutual consent of sales department, Finance
department and by the approval of higher authority, Production department formulates
“production plan” with month-wise breakup.

Import Plan

After deciding “how much units have to be produced” and confirm that “what
material would required” material planning department would carry forward this
process by checking inventory level and by deciding that what, when, and how much
quantity of material would be ordered to foreign supplier. That final requirement of
material for import is forward in documentary form of “Import plan” to commercial
department. Import section staff performs two types of activities and these activities
are needed to correlate with each other. It is a big task to deal with. Under the heads
of “Pre-shipment activities” and “Post-shipment activities”, the import activities are
grouped.

PRE-SHIPMENT ACTIVITIES

Pre-qualification of supplier(s)

Before submitting “request for quotation” import officer assess supplier(s) either they
fulfill criteria for pre-qualification or not. Supplier should be certified by ISO 9000 or
should have consistent performance regarding,

• Competitive price.

MY LEARNINGS IN PAK ELEKTRON

While working with PAK ELEKTRON LTD, I got very broader visions about
company financial and marketing activities more than those that I had learned during
my MBA program. What were those experiences? I would like to share them in this
report.

I worked in finance and accounts department for about 6 weeks and the detail of my
activities performed there were as follows

 I verified all the purchase invoices regarding the three main sectors applied
appliances, powers and electric.

 All the invoices were verified in terms of the net amount after the tax, before
tax, sales tax value, vendor verification and debit invoice. Debit invoice is a
mode to settle the amount differences of the invoices.

 After my due verification then I have to report to my supervisor the Accounts


payable head and after this the entries are recorded in the PEL electronic
software.

 With this responsibility I was assigned to take and handle all the calls of
vendors and from whole the company departments.

 After the entries are made then final cheques were made by the authorized
individuals and handled over to the concerned department.

 Reconciliation of the vouchers with different organizations relating to it.

 Reconciliation of the Raaziq international accounts with the account ledgers of


finance department.

 Check how to code the finish goods inventory.

 The two major costing methods used by the Pak elektron limited are the job
order costing and process costing. But the major use is job order costing.

 Check what types of insurance risks are handled there.

INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCES, B.Z.U. MULTAN


Pak Elektron Limited 44
INTERNSHIP REPORT

 Employees form NG to Manager Level is given some facilities e.g. medical,


traveling and mobile postpaid etc. the recording of such expenditure.

 Manage the records of the company.

 I have learned about the inland letter of credit. The more preferable mode of
finance. In which the company request the party against the order.

 I have also learned that in order to get an order, a company has to follow a
participation procedure and this procedure starts from TENDER BONDS or
Guarantees given through banks to the buying party in order to assure that
certain company has a legal entity, has an ability to fulfill the desired order
within specified date and incase if the company dissolves bank will stand
liable for the fulfillment of the order.

 Similarly another important thing which I had learned over there was the
Buying procedure through leasing agreements like writing a purchase order,
asking for quotations, making comparisons of the offered features and Internal
Rate of Return and lastly the best institutional selection in order to avail
leasing facility.

assets are less than the long term liabilities. The long term liabilities increase after the
2006.

PEL is earning the profits in the last five year but the company operating and net
profit decline in 2009 as compare to the previous years. The company gross profit
remains the same in the previous years. Profit decline due to high finance cost and
share of associate.

The current figure shows that the return on the equity, asset and investment. The
return on investment is high in 2007. And decrease after that year. The return on asset
and equity are high in 2007 but it also decline due to the low sales volume and low
profits.

The inventory and accounts receivable turnover is calculated by the sales divided by
the inventory or debtors. In the 2007 the accounts receivable turnover is high. It may
have two reason high sales or low debtor. And in the inventory turnover the same case
applied that either the sales are high or inventory is low. In 2008 it decline but in 2009

Total assets turnover and fixed assets turnover is calculated by the sales divided by
the total asset or fixed asset. As the total assets are more than the fixed assets so the
denominator is high so total asset turnover amount is low and fixed assets turnover is
high. In 2007 the total and fixed asset turnover is higher due to the high amount of
sales or low assets.

Suggestions

• Increase Utilization of capacity

 One thing that I observed during my internship that PEL could not
make the freezer as they target. They have enough capacity to
make but the less or lack of utilization of capacity they fail to meet
their targets.

• Lack of advertisement

 Other competitor companies have good marketing and advertising


campaigns as I observed that near the PEL there is a great sign
board of Waves.

• System variations

 PEL should have to adopt the one system. As they are changing the
system to ERP which is very good but they have to train their
employee as well. Training procedure must be change. There
should be the presentation to all workers.

• Lack of Product range

 They should have to increase their product range as their new


competitor SAMSANG in appliances has a lot of product range so
they also have to increase their products.

INSTITUTE OF MANAGEMENT SCIENCES, B.Z.U. MULTAN


Pak Elektron Limited 64
INTERNSHIP REPORT

• To gain more competitive advantage over their competitors, PEL has


to work on their distribution network

• The company must give more incentives to the dealers so that they
remain loyal to the company and promote the products.

• PEL should open its internship programs on frequent basis so more and
more students can get the chance to work as an internee in such a huge
institute and get their relevant work experience.

• Introduction of seasonal schemes can help to boost sales

• Dressing of officers even at executive level is casual so they


have to implement the executive dressing.

• Too much favoritism in PEL so there should be control and merit


should be followed.

• There is no rotation of job work so one person is limited to his


work.

• PEL more focus should be on electronic media to get


competitive advantage over the competitors. They have to
increase their advertising expenditures.

CONCLUSION

Concluding, I found that the people while purchasing for a certain item take great
interest in the brand name, quality, and features. A very fine example is that of
Dawlance. Most of the people that I had contacted gave a lot of preference to
Dawlance. People have a strong faith in this brand name, partly due to its high quality
and features and partly due to the brand image that it has created during all these
years. All the other factors like price, advertisement, word of mouth, dealers etc. don’t
have that much importance during the buying process. PEL is not targeting through
advertising, by coordinating their marketing efforts, take advantage of synergy among
various communication tools, and develop more efficient and effective marketing
communication programs.

Even a new technologies and formats create new ways for marketers to reach
consumers, they are affecting the more traditional media Television, Radio,
Magazines and Newspapers are becoming more fragmented and reading smaller and
more selective audience.

PEL is doing some advertising efforts but problem is that there is no creativity in ads.
No doubt PEL is making excellent products, but unfortunately PEL is not realizing
creative advertising is also important part of their Marketing success.
