From the above table, the cost per bricks has increase in the year 2061/62 as compared to that of 2060/61. This is the because of price high in raw materials and other expenses and more added profit percentage. And also in the following year’s price of bricks are more and more than the compare of the last year. That means the selling price of the products in higher and higher then the previous year due to the increase cost on raw materials, production cost and other expenses and increase in profit margin. In all the year in the above table same trend we can observe. Cost of the bricks are 3.2, 3.7, 4.85, 6.1 and 8.05 in the years 2060/61, 2061/62, 2062/63, 2063/64 and 2064/65 respectively.

We can recommend as following by analysis by above chapter II and data presentation:
Proper Maintenance of Kiln
The firm must timely maintain the kiln in order to increase the productivity and profit.
Motivation
From the above analysis we see in the firm we found there are no effective motivation and leadership function. Hence, the productivity of the firm is fluctuated (up and down) against of increasing. So the firms need to apply above two managerial functions to increase productivity.
Focus on Finishing
For better quality and well product the firm should focus on the finishing on the product. Only qualitative product is demanded in the market. Some portion of the total product is found not well finished. Hence, it may be harm for the reputation of the firm.
Additional Vehicle for Distribution
Available vehicle are not sufficient for distribution process. Therefore, the firm should add more mini trucks for quick and effective distribution purpose.
Team Work
Coordination between production and distribution play an important role. Which would more supported for lunching the development activity effectively. There are found lack of coordination and team work in the firm.
Marketing and Sales
The firm should promote its sales by opening more sales office in the different parts of the valley and by selling its product to big project which would be more beneficial.

Selling price 3.2 3.7 4.85 6.1 8.05
(Source: Annual Reports of SNCBF)
From the above table, the cost per bricks has increase in the year 2061/62 as compared to that of 2060/61. This is the because of price high in raw materials and other expenses and more added profit percentage. And also in the following year’s price of bricks are more and more than the compare of the last year. That means the selling price of the products in higher and higher then the previous year due to the increase cost on raw materials, production cost and other expenses and increase in profit margin. In all the year in the above table same trend we can observe. Cost of the bricks are 3.2, 3.7, 4.85, 6.1 and 8.05 in the years 2060/61, 2061/62, 2062/63, 2063/64 and 2064/65 respectively. In 2064/65 the price of the product is in the pick position (8.05). It is clear in the following figure.

From the above table, the total cost of raw materials in increasing in trend through in five years 2060/61 to 2064/65. Thus, it tells that the cost of raw materials is highly fluctuated (increasing trend) due to limit resource. From the help in the graph we can clearly see the price increasing in the price of the raw materials. We can see price in 2060/61, 2061/62, 2062/63, 2063/64, 2064/65 are 0.40, 0.500, 0.55, 0.600, 0.800 respectively, which show the increasing trend the price of the of raw materials. Hence, it plays the important role to the increase in the price of the product.

Total selling price = sales in quantity selling price per quantity
According to the above table a, it clearly show that the profit earning is rapidly growing. It means profit earning is in increasing trend. As the increase in sales then profit earning is also increasing. The highest profit earning in among different fiscal year is in 2064/65. The firm earns the maximum profit (Rs. 61, 37,500) on that year because price fluctuating in price in raw materials, production cost etc. and maximum profit margin. The profit of the years, 2060/61, 2061/62, 2062/63, 2063/64 and 2064/65 are17,16,750, 21,84,600, 31,31,000, 43,20,000 and 61,37,500 respectively. Hence, we can concluded that if quantity of sales increase then profit also increasing which is clearly explained in the above table and following figure.

3.3 Recommendations
We can recommend as following by analysis by above chapter II and data presentation:
Proper Maintenance of Kiln
The firm must timely maintain the kiln in order to increase the productivity and profit.
Motivation
From the above analysis we see in the firm we found there are no effective motivation and leadership function. Hence, the productivity of the firm is fluctuated (up and down) against of increasing. So the firms need to apply above two managerial functions to increase productivity.
Focus on Finishing
For better quality and well product the firm should focus on the finishing on the product. Only qualitative product is demanded in the market. Some portion of the total product is found not well finished. Hence, it may be harm for the reputation of the firm.
Additional Vehicle for Distribution
Available vehicle are not sufficient for distribution process. Therefore, the firm should add more mini trucks for quick and effective distribution purpose.
Team Work
Coordination between production and distribution play an important role. Which would more supported for lunching the development activity effectively. There are found lack of coordination and team work in the firm.
Marketing and Sales
The firm should promote its sales by opening more sales office in the different parts of the valley and by selling its product to big project which would be more beneficial.
