Dear Shweta,

Per Annum Capacity of Each Machine – 1000 bottles

Let’s divide the year in 6 months of Winter & 6 months Summer Season i:e 500 bottles in each season. Hence Annual Production will be as under –

Summer = Capacity x 100% = 500 x 100% = 500 bottles

Winter = Capacity x 50% = 500 x 50% = 250 bottles

Total Production is 750 bottles.

PV Factor @ 10%

Present Value

Outflow

Purchase of 1 Machine

 

Rs. 6,000

 

1

 

(6,000)

1 to 5

Inflow

Tax Saving on Depreciation

= Cost x Rate of Depreciation x Rate of Tax

 

6,000 x 20% x 40%

 

ð   480

 

3.79 (Annuity For Year 1 to 5 @ 10%)

 

= 480 x 3.791

 

ð  1,820

1 to Infinite

Inflow

Savings in Operation Expenditure  (Net of Tax)

= Production x Savings/Bottle x (1-Tax Rate)  

 

 

750 x (3-1) x (1-40%)

ð  900

PV factor of infinite/Perpetual annuity = 1/Rate

 = 1/.10

ð  10

 

= 900 x 10

ð  9,000

 

NPV of 1 Machine

 

 

= (6,000) +1,820 +9,000

ð  4,820

 

NPV of 2 Machines

 

 

= 4,820 x 2

ð  9,640

how did u calculated the 1 to infinity thng

 

i got it

Dear Shweta,

Savings in Operation Expenditure  (Net of Tax) = Production x Savings/Bottle x (1-Tax Rate)  

                                          = 750 x (3-1) x (1-40%)

This 3-1 = 2 is the saving which u r talking... (3rd Row in the Table Above)
