It is an independent and a separate legal entity. The survival stability and growth of such entity within society largely depend on the wealth created by it through the collective efforts of all the stakeholders-shareholders, providers of loan capital, employees and the government. All these stakeholders are the parties to whom the result of operations of business is communicated. Therefore, present study attempts to show how and to what extent the Value Added Statement (VAS) can supplement additional financial information to satisfy all the stakeholders of the enterprise.

Hence, it is clear that ratios using Value Added (VA) indicate that the company little bit efficient in terms of utilization of materials.
