2. Quick Ratio:
The quick ratio also known as the acid-test ratio - is a liquidity indicator that further refines the current ratio by measuring the amount of the most liquid current assets there are to cover current liabilities. The quick ratio is more conservative than the current ratio because it excludes inventory and other current assets, which are more difficult to turn into cash. Therefore, a higher ratio means a more liquid current position. The quick ratio is a more conservative measure of liquidity than the current ratio as it removes inventory from the current assets used in the ratio's formula. By excluding inventory, the quick ratio focuses on the more-liquid assets of a company. The basics and use of this ratio are similar to the current ratio in that it gives users an idea of the ability of a company to meet its short-term liabilities with its short-term assets. Another beneficial use is to compare the quick ratio with the current ratio. If the current ratio is significantly higher, it is a clear indication that the company's current assets are dependent on inventory.

Inference: As we can see here all of the companies have high cash ratio. In case of Meghna Life
Insurance Company it is most. They have cash ratio of around 7:1. This means to satisfy of one taka current liabilities they have seven taka of cash or cash equivalent. Popular Life insurance has also high cash ratio. But this kind of very high ration indicates that the firms have not invested in long term fields of earning and so they have lower return from their cash. But as an insurance company it also necessary to hold enough cash or cash equivalent so that they can meet the insurance claims quickly.

When calculating, it is more accurate to use a weighted average number of shares outstanding over the reporting term, because the number of shares outstanding can change over time. However, data sources sometimes simplify the calculation by using the number of shares outstanding at the end of the period. Earnings per share is generally considered to be the single most important variable in determining a share's price. It is also a major component used to calculate the price-to-earnings valuation ratio. For example, assume that a company has a net income of $25 million. If the company pays out $1 million in preferred dividends and has 10 million shares for half of the year and 15 million shares for the other half, the EPS would be $1.92 (24/12.5). First, the $1 million is deducted from the net income to get $24 million, then a weighted average is taken to find the number of shares outstanding (0.5 x 10M+ 0.5 x 15M = 12.5M). An important aspect of EPS that's often ignored is the capital that is required to generate the earnings (net income) in the calculation. Two companies could generate the same EPS number, but one could do so with less equity (investment) - that company would be more efficient at using its capital to generate income and, all other things being equal, would be a "better" company. Investors also need to be aware of earnings manipulation that will affect the quality of the earnings number.

Debt Ratios
1. debt-equity ratio
The debt-equity ratio is another leverage ratio that compares a company's total liabilities to its total shareholders' equity. This is a measurement of how much suppliers, lenders, creditors and obligors have committed to the company versus what the shareholders have committed. To a large degree, the debt-equity ratio provides another vantage point on a company's leverage position, in this case, comparing total liabilities to shareholders' equity, as opposed to total assets in the debt ratio. Similar to the debt ratio, a lower the percentage means that a company is using less leverage and has a stronger equity position.
Formula:
Variations: A conservative variation of this ratio, which is seldom seen, involves reducing a company's equity position by its intangible assets to arrive at a tangible equity, or tangible net worth, figure. Companies with a large amount of purchased goodwill form heavy acquisition activity can end up with a negative equity position.
Commentary: The debt-equity ratio appears frequently in investment literature. However, like the debt ratio, this ratio is not a pure measurement of a company's debt because it includes operational liabilities in total liabilities. Nevertheless, this easy-to-calculate ratio provides a general indication of a company's equity-liability relationship and is helpful to investors looking for a quick take on a company's leverage. Generally, large, well-established companies can push the liability component of their balance sheet structure to higher percentages without getting into trouble. The debt-equity ratio percentage provides a much more dramatic perspective on a company's leverage position than the debt ratio percentage. For example, IBM's debt ratio of 69% seems less onerous than its debt-equity ratio of 220%, which means that creditors have more than twice as much money in the company than equity holders (both ratios are for FY 2005).

After calculating Debt Equity Ratio of Eight company we reach a decision that among the company Progressive life Insurance Company has less Debt-equity ratio that indicate they used less leverage and has a stronger equity position.
2. Debt ratio:
Debt Ratio is a financial ratio that indicates the percentage of a company's assets that are provided via debt. It is the ratio of total debt (the sum of current liabilities and long-term liabilities) and total assets (the sum of current assets, fixed assets, and other assets such as 'goodwill') . A low percentage means that the company is less dependent on leverage, i.e., money borrowed from and/or owed to others. The lower the percentage, the less leverage a company is using and the stronger its equity position. In general, the higher the ratio, the more risk that company is considered to have taken on Debt ratio of six life insurance company for the year 2006 to 2010 : Company Popular Meghna Pragati Prime Islamic Progressive Delta Fareast Islamic 2006 14% 17% 18% 12% 13% 16% 11% 2007 13% 14% 10% 10% 9% 14% 10% 2008 11.5% 11% 9% 8.5% 8% 10% 9.5% 2009 9% 9% 8.5% 8% 7% 9% 8% 2010 8.5% 8% 7% 7% 6.5% 8% 7.5%
4. Capitilization Ratio:
Capitalization ratios, also known as financial leverage ratios, are used to determine a companys stability by comparing its long-term debt with its current equity and assets. A capitalization ratio provides investors and analysts with information about the extent to which a company is using its equity to finance its operational costs, and to what extent it is incurring new debt to do so. Capitalization ratios provide an indication of the companys solvency and viability over the long term and allow more accurate risk assessments for prospective investors. Typically, a companys capitalization ratio is calculated by dividing the companys long-term debt by the sum of the long-term debt and the shareholders equity, as follows:
Calculation:
Company Popular Meghna Pragati Prime Islamic Progressive Delta Fareast Islamic 2006 90.16% 96.26% 85.47% 74.72% 96.07% 99.85% 95.75% 2007 85.41% 94.03% 79.47% 83.26% 67.99% 99.83% 62.44% 2008 89.65% 52.47% 87.72% 87.30% 78.50% 99.97% 68.07% 2009 91.26% 97.36% 92.77% 87.61% 92.04% 99.99% 94.81% 2010 95.90% 97.26% 94.82% 93.59% 94.47% 99.99% 95.47%
There is no exact number that determines whether a company is doing a good job of generating revenue from its investment in fixed assets. This makes it important to compare the most recent ratio to both the historical levels of the company along with peer company and/or industry averages. Before putting too much weight into this ratio, it's important to determine the type of company that you are using the ratio on because a company's investment in fixed assets is very much linked to the requirements of the industry in which it conducts its business. Fixed assets vary greatly among companies. For example, an internet company, like Google, has less of a fixed-asset base than a heavy manufacturer like Caterpillar. Obviously, the fixed-asset ratio for Google will have less relevance than that for Caterpillar.

Inferences: A stock with a high P/E ratio suggests that investors are expecting higher earnings
growth in the future compared to the overall market, as investors are paying more for today's earnings in anticipation of future earnings growth. Hence, as a generalization, stocks with this characteristic are considered to be growth stocks.
