About teachers day

About Teachers Day
A teacher is a friend, philosopher, and guide who holds our hand, opens our mind, and touches our heart. The contribution of a teacher cannot be ignored at all. In many countries across the world, teacher's day is a special day where teachers of schools, colleges, and universities are honored specially. The date varies from country to country. The universally accepted World Teacher's Day is 5th October. In India, the Teacher's Day is celebrated on 5th September and this tradition started from 1962. This is the when Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was born. He was a philosopher, scholar, teacher, and politician and his dedicated work towards education made his birthday an important day in the history of India. We remember the great work of this exemplary person on this day.

Actually, this man, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan was a friendly teacher and he was popular among his students for the example he always set in front of them. So, one day his students and friends requested him to allow them to celebrate his birthday in a lavish way. In return he said that it would be his pride and honor if they celebrate his birthday in respect of all teachers. And since then this day 5th September is celebrated as Teacher's Day.

Now, talking about the rest of the world, World Teacher's Day is celebrated on 5th October and it started form 1994. It was UNESCO who started this tradition. The focus set by UNESCO was to celebrate the engrossment and accomplishment of teachers and also the primacies that they put on the field of education. Now why 5th October is taken up as the Teacher's Day? On this day in the year 1966, a special intergovernmental conference adopted the UNESCO endorsement regarding the statuses of teachers.

Why do We Celebrate?
Teaching is the most influential job in the world. Teachers are known to shape the mind of youth and without knowledge no one can exist in this world. Teacher imparts good value in children and turn them into responsible citizens. So, almost every country celebrates Teacher's Day.

In India, we celebrate this day on the birthday of Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. He was a man of many good qualities and a favorite teacher among students. It was his request that his birthday should be celebrated as an honorable day for all the teachers in the country, in case someone is wishing to celebrate his birthday at all. So, in a nutshell, we celebrate Teacher's Day because teachers have been the architect of the society and without them no society can walk in the path of progression.

In his book titled, "Political Thinkers of Modern India", he signified the importance of teachers and education in a country like Democratic India which was still in its early years of development. According to him, there is a huge role of teachers in nation building and for that sake teachers should be respected more. Apart from being a thinker and teacher he was also a philosopher. He once wrote a book on Bhaagwad Gita and there he defined a teacher as, “The one who emphasizes on presentation to converge different currents of thoughts to the same end”.

By the time he entered politics, most of the leaders of that time like Jawaharlal Nehru, Mahatma Gandhi, or Dr. Rajendra Prasad were his fans for this thinking in nation building. His skills were proven in the arena of politics also. He had the political insight to recognize the impediments well in advance and also carried the required courage to scold party leaders for their procrastination and delinquency. Way back in 1947, he warned the former Congress people about the alarming consequences of nepotism and corruption. We are dealing with it now!

Such a man of course requires a standing ovation. So, to promote the values and principles of a true teacher, this day is celebrated.
No matter how old we grow, the lessons taught by our teachers can never be forgotten. They build the foundation for our moral values and nurture children with their love and care. This Teachers day, tell your lovable teachers how much you adore them. Feel proud and honoured to celebrate Teacher’s day.

"If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher." - Dr APJ Abdul Kalam
"Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire." -William Butler Yeats
"Good teaching is more a giving of right questions than a giving of right answers." - Josef Albers
"Let us remember: One book, one pen, one child, and one teacher can change the world." - Malala Yousafzai
"You are the bows from which your children as living arrows are sent forth." - Khalil Gibran


The best teachers teach from the heart, not from the book. Thank you for being a wonderful teacher. Happy Teacher's Day!
Teaching is the one profession that creates all other professions. Thank you for helping me become the person I am today. Happy Teacher's Day!
A teacher nourishes the soul of a child for a lifetime.
A Teacher presents the past, reveals the present, and creates the future.
Teacher, you have always challenged me to work hard and get good grades. I will always remember you. Happy Teacher's Day!
Thanks teacher for making my world so perfect. Happy Teacher's Day!

Important accounts related numericals

Important accounts related numericals 

1.
Find total assets if DER = 2:1, CL = 8 lac, equity = 4 lac.

Since total assets = debt + equity + liability
=> total assets = debt + 4 + 8
=> debt = TA - 12

Since DER = debt / equity
=>2:1 = (TA - 12) / 4
so, TA = 20 lacs Ans

2.
Find equity, given assets = 200 lac, DER = 2:1, CL = 56 lac.

Since DER = debt / equity
=> 2:1 = debt / equity
so, debt = 2 × equity

Since total assets = debt + equity + liability
=> 200 = 2 × equity+ equity + 56
So, equity = 48 lacs Ans

3.
Find NWC, given CR = 2.5:1 & CA = 30 lac.

Since CR = CA / CL & NWC = CA - CL
=> 2.5:1 = 30 / CL
=> CL = 12
and NWC = 30 - 12 = 18 lac Ans

4.
Suppose CR is 4:1, NWC is Rs 30000/-, what is CA?

Since CR = CA / CL & NWC = CA - CL => CL = CA - NWC
=> 4:1 = CA / (CA - 30000)
so, CA = Rs 40000 Ans

5.
An account became NPA on 05042009. The outstanding in the account is 10 lacs. Realisable value of security is 7 lacs. The balance including Rs 50000 as recorded and suspended interest. How much provision is required to be made on 31032010?


6.
Total current assets of a company is Rs 32 crore and the NWC is Rs 8 crore. The ratio is ___.
(Note:
Current asset = stock, debtors, loans etc
Total asset = current assets + non current assets
Non Current Assets = goodwill, preliminary exp)

Sol:
NWC = CA - CL
so, CA = 32 - 8 = 24
Current Ratio = Current Assets ÷ Current Liability 
= 32÷24 =1.33:1 Ans

All the best

BFM   

The strategy for the study of Bank Financial Management which many people finds difficult to clear. If you study properly, it is easy to clear the BFM. This subject also contains 4 modules, they are;
-International Banking
-Risk Management
-Treasury Management
-Balance Sheet Management
Many people do not correlate the syllabus of the subject with day to day banking activity. So they find it difficult to score and understand this subject. But this not true, this subject is very much important which will increase your knowledge regarding top management & middle management functioning of your bank as well as banking as a whole industry.
All the modules are equally important, but you may clear the paper with three modules study also. Module A & B are relatively easy and scoring as well. Let us discuss strategy for each module.


Module A-International Banking


Important topics are Exchange Rates and Forex Business, Basics for Forex Derivatives, Documentary LC, and Facilities for Exporters & Importers


Rapid reading or bullet point reading is quite useful for this module. Practice numerical again and again.


Many numerical/case studies are asked from this module which are quite easy as compared to Module B & Module D case studies. Refer the case studies from McMillan given at the end of the topic. Also N.S.Toor book has many numerical and case studies. Questions are asked on Exchange rates, Shipment Finance etc.


Module B-Risk Management


All chapters are equally important as they are interlinked to each other. Again focus more on case studies/numericals given in Apendix at the end of chapter. Maximum case studies are asked from this module. Though short notes are useful for this module I would suggest McMillan reading for this module because some questions are twisted type for which you require details of the concept which is hard to get from short notes. RBI website contains FAQs which are quite useful for this modules, you should read them at least once.


Module C- Treasury Management


Important topics are Introduction, Types of treasury products, Treasury Risk Management, Treasury and Asset-Liability Management.


Mostly questions asked on this module are theoretical type, so through reading of McMillan is important. If you don’t get time then you can skip this module or read short notes since the weighted of this module for exam point of view is low according to me as compared to Module A&B. But those who wish to make carrier or work in treasury department, this is the best module to learn.


Module-D Balance Sheet Management


Important chapters are Components of ALM in Bank’s Balance Sheet, Capital and banking Regulation,, Capital Adequacy, Asset Classification and Provisioning Norms, Interest rate Risk management.


Though McMillan book contain sufficient material but I would suggest you to refer RBI website for this module. In this module focus more on Case Studies as compared to theoretical questions.

Q.1  X Ltd., has a current ratio of 3.5:1 and quick ratio of 2:1. If excess of current
assets over quick assets represented by inventories is Rs. 24,000, calculate
current assets and current liabilities.
Solution:
Current Ratio = 3.5:1
Quick Ratio = 2:1
Let Current liabilities = x
Current assets = 3.5x
and Quick assets = 2x
Inventories = Current assets – Quick assets
24,000 = 3.5x – 2x
24,000 = 1.5x
x = Rs.16,000
Current Liabilities = Rs.16,000
Current Assets = 3.5x = 3.5 × Rs. 16,000 = Rs. 56,000.
Verification :
Current Ratio = Current assets : Current liabilities
= Rs. 56,000 : Rs. 16,000
= 3.5 : 1
Quick Ratio = Quick assets : Current liabilities
= Rs. 32,000 : Rs. 16,000
= 2 : 1
