amounts of investment required are:
Project Investment required Present value of Future Cash- Flows

1 2,00,000 2,90,000
2 1,15,000 1,85,000
3 2,70,000 4,00,000
If projects 1 and 2 are jointly undertaken, there will be no economies; the investments required and present values
will simply be the sum of the parts. With projects 1 and 3, economies are possible in investment because one of the
machines acquired can be used in both production processes. The total investment required for projects 1 and 3
combined is ₹4,40,000. If projects 2 and 3 are undertaken, there are economies to be achieved in marketing and
producing the products but not in investment. The expected present value of futire cash flows for the projects 2
and 3 is Rs 620000. If all the three projects are undertaken simultaneously, the economies noted will still hold.
However, a Rs. 125000 extensions on the plant will be necessary, as space is not available for all three projects.
Analyze which project/projects should be chosen?
20. Cello Limited is considering buying a new machine which would have a useful economic life of five years, a cost of
₹1,25,000 and a scrap value of ₹30,000, with 80 per cent of the cost being payable at the start of the project and 20
per cent at the end of the first year. The machine would produce 50,000 units per annum of a new product with an
estimated selling price of ₹3 per unit. Direct costs would be ₹1.75 per unit and annual fixed costs, including
depreciation calculated on a straight- line basis, would be ₹40,000 per annum.
In the first year and the second year, special sales promotion expenditure, not included in the above costs, would
be incurred, amounting to ₹10,000 and ₹15,000 respectively.
ANALYSE the project using the NPV method of investment appraisal, assuming the company’s cost of capital to be
10 percent.

The finance Manager who feels perturbed suggests that the company should at least break-even in the second quarter
with a drive for increased sales. Towards this the company should introduce a better packing which will increase the
cost by ₹ 0.50 per unit.

increased to the extent of ₹ 5,000 and a profit of ₹5,000 can be aimed at for the period with increased sales.

The board of directors plan to introduce more mechanisation into the department at a capital cost of ₹ 40,000. The
effect of this will be to reduce the number of employees to 120, but to increase the output per individual employees
by 40%. To provide the necessary incentive to achieve the increased output, the board intends to offer a 1% increase
on the piece of work price of 25 paise per article for every 2% increase in average individual output achieved. To sell
the increased output, it will be necessary to decrease the selling price by 4%. Calculate the extra weekly contribution
resulting from the proposed change and evaluate for the board’s consideration, the worth of the project.
