1 CHAPTER-V HUMAN ASSET VALUATION METHODS OF SELECTED COMPANIES 5.1 INTRODUCATION This chapter presents a detailed benchmarking of the valuation model used to measure Human Assets by the selected companies and the quantitative data concerning Human Assets as disclosed in the financial reports in the annual reports of each organization. The quantified Human Resource Value data that is required for this study and the other variables included in this study were disclosed in the annual reports of the selected companies. 5.2 WHAT VALUATION METHOD IS BEING USED TO MEASURE HUMAN ASSETS? Infosys Ltd. (IL) Infosys is an international consulting and technology organization. The company was established in 1981 and successfully completed an Initial Public Offering (IPO) in An IPO is the activity of selling the organization s shares of stock to the public investors. In 1999, Infosys became the first Indian Organization to be listed on the National Association of Security Dealers and Automated Quotation (NASDAQ). Infosys justifies the human resource valuation as: the dichotomy in accounting between human and non- human capital is fundamental. The latter is recognized as an asset and is therefore recorded in the books and reported in the financial statements, whereas, the former is totally ignored by accountants. The definition of wealth as a source of income inevitably leads to the 901

2 recognition of human capital as one of several forms of wealth such as money, securities and physical capital. Infosys provide additional information of the firm from intangible assets score sheet, Value-Added statement and Human Resource Accounting statement. Infosys provide the information regarding particular of employees under the provision of Section 21 7 (2A) of the Companies Rules, The Lev and Schwartz model has been used by Infosys to compute the value of the human resources (Sveiby, 1997). The Lev and Schwartz formula used by the company measures the present value of the employees future earnings. The calculation is as follows: Vr = l (t) / (l + r) t-r Where, Vr = the value of an individual r years old 1(t) = the individuals annual earnings up to retirement t = the retirement age r = the discount rate specific to the cost of capital to the firm It considers all direct and indirect benefits earned both in India and abroad for the valuation purpose. The incremental earnings based on age and groups are taken into consideration. Balance sheet with intangibles is also disclosed by the company in its reports. The future earnings have been discounted at the cost of capital for Infosys. Infosys calculates cost of capital by using Beta. Beta has been assumed at 1.54 based on average beta for software stocks in the US. From the year onwards [ ], and Beta is calculated based on Indian stock market prices. Infosys reports Number of employees, value of human resources, total revenue, software revenue, Employee cost, value added excluding extraordinary 990

3 income, Net profits excluding extraordinary income, total revenue/human resources value (ratio), total revenue/ human resources value (ratio), Value-added/human resources value (ratio), value of human resources per employee (Rs. In Crores), Employee cost/ human resources value in per cent and Return on human resources value in per cent. Behavioral analysis: Two important variables from the study point of view are: Human Resource Value The index based time series behavioral analysis has been carried out to observe the movement of each of these variables. This section studies the movement of these two variables which are considered for the study. The values of these variables have changed during the last seven years of the study. The researcher has also constructed the index of these variables with as the base year for comparative growth analysis. Human Resource Value Table 5.1 Indices for Human Resource Value of Infosys Ltd.

(ROLTA) ROLTA established in 1989,and employs around 5000 professionals and has a countrywide infrastructure and international subsidiaries across the globe. Rolta India Limited is ranked No. 12 in IT companies and overall ranked No. 365 in India in Fortune India 500 list in Forbes Global has ranked Rolta amongst the "Best 200 under a Billion" four times in six years while the company was included by Standard and poor on their 2008 Global Challengers List, which identifies 300 midsize companies worldwide with a total market capitalization between US$1 5 Billion. ROLTA is leader in Geo special Market in India. ROLTA follows the model proposed by Lev and Schwartz for the valuation of human resources. The calculation is as follows: 991

6 Vr = l (t)/ (l + r) t-r Where, Vr = the value of an individual r years old 1(t) = the individuals annual earnings up to retirement t = the retirement age r = the discount rate specific to the cost of capital to the firm The company considers all direct and indirect benefits earned by employees as a basis for calculation both in India and abroad. Average increment is based on the increment paid during last three years. Retirement age is taken as per company s policy. Based on these assumptions Human Resource Value was calculated considering different discount rates for different years to arrive at the present value of future earnings. Company reports total value of HR, total revenue of the company, total employee cost, net profit after tax, revenue per employee, HRV per employee, net profit per employee and total revenue/ total HRV, company does not report Discount rate. Behavioral analysis: Two important variables from the study point of view: Human Resource Value The index based time series behavioral analysis has been carried out to observe the movement of each of these variables. This section studies the movement of these two important variables which are considered for the study. The values of these variables have changed during the last seven years of the study. The researcher has also constructed the index of these variables with as the base year for comparative growth analysis. 991

26 Figure 5.8 and HRV indexes fluctuation of Indian Oil Corporation TOTAL HRV INDEX TOTAL FIRM VALUE INDEX Source: Compiled from tables 5.15 & 5.16 of the enterprise under consideration Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd. (BHEL) Bharat Heavy Electricals Ltd. (BHEL) is a public sector organization set up with the aim of manufacturing heavy electrical equipment, in the country. BHEL was set up in November 1956 to meet and develop the country s infrastructure. BHEL was established in Heavy Electrical (India) Ltd. was merged with BHEL in BHEL had initiated publishing information related to HRA in its annual report for the financial year , by using the Lev and Schwartz model, for the first time in India. BHEL also started considering efficiency factor for the purpose of human resource valuation from the year Moreover, this company has 911

27 consistently used a particular model for the valuation of its human resource from onwards. The model adopted by BHEL is given below: HRV = P 12 N E I/F Where, HRV Human Resources Value of the group of employees in the particular salary grade. P 12 =Annual compensation (including DA, CCA, HRA, PF contribution by employers etc). N = Total Number of Employees in the grade. E= Efficiency Factor (The factor varies with the amount of experience. It decreases at about5% for each accounting period of five or six years). I = Incremental Factor (It is 5% for five years period. The period of 5 years has been taken as the basic in the assumption that people with five experiences are normally promoted to the next higher grade). F = It has been taken at 12% per annum which is the weighted average cost of capital to the company. BHEL divides total employees of the organization according to age, grade and category for the purpose of valuation and reporting information related to human resource accounting. The company followed the discount rate at 12 per cent considering the weighted average cost of capital. BHEL became the first Indian company to provide the highest information under the head human resource accounting. It took a lead in calculating and communicating the ratios measuring the productivity and performance of human resources. 911

28 BHEL was reporting number of employees, Value added, Employee Remuneration and benefit, value added per employee, turnover per employee and also Human Resource Value-age wise, group wise and in total. It also communicated the ratios like Human Resources (HR)/Total Resources (TR), HR/fixed asset (FA), turnover/hr, PBT/HR, HR/VAD. The company has classified its employees into six categories based on skill, type of work, experience and qualifications. In each category ten to fifteen salary grades have been identified to facilitate the valuation of Human Assets. The number of employees have increased from 42,601in to 49,390 in Behavioral Analysis: The data used in the study has been collected from the annual reports of BHEL from the year to Two important variables from the study point of view: Human Resource Value The index based time series behavioral analysis has been carried out to observe the movement of each of these variables. This section studies the movement of these two important variables which are considered for the study. The values of these variables have changed during the last seven years of the study. The researcher has also constructed the index of these variables with as the base year for comparative growth analysis. Human Resource Value (HRV): 911

31 hydrocarbon aggregates in India and Contributes over 79 per cent of Indian s oil and gas production. ONGC follows the Lev and Schwartz model by accepting the modifications suggested by Flamholtz and Jaggi and Lau. ONGC divides total employees into four categories as under: Managerial and supervisory; Clerical; Skilled workers; and Unskilled workers. ONGC considers the rate of interest, at which the Government of India advances them loans, as the discount rate. ONGC reports the present value of future expected return of the employees by discounting it at 10.5 per cent constantly. ONGC reports HRV category wise as well as in total. Behavioral Analysis: The data used in the study has been collected from the annual reports of ONGC from the year to Two important variables from the study point of view: Human Resource Value The index based time series behavioral analysis has been carried out to observe the movement of each of these variables. This section studies the movement of these two important variables which are considered for the study. The values of these variables have changed during the last seven years of the study.
