Table 6.1 Purchased Equipment Cost
68
The total direct cost can be calculated from the following table,
The total indirect cost can be calculated from the following table,
69
Fixed Capital Investment = Direct cost + Indirect cost + Purchase
Equipment cost
= 1510.571 crores
= 825.037 crores
The cost for operating plant and selling the products is called total
product cost.
70
This value is obtained from using the following formula.
Total product cost = Total direct product cost + Plant overhead cost
Total direct product cost = Raw material cost + Direct product cost
71
Table 6.5 Direct Product Cost
= 14.473 crores
72
Total product cost = Total direct product cost + Plant overhead cost
= 14.473 + 1.3351
= 15.8081 crores
x Production rate
This is the amount remaining after paying the income tax from the cost
obtained from the difference between annual income and total product cost.
Net profit NP = (annual income - total product cost) x (1- income tax)
Np = 518.10 crores

This is the length of the time necessary for the total return to equal the
capital investment. It intuitively measures how long something takes to pay for
itself. It is popular due to its ease of use despite the recognized limitations. It as

Indirect cost are costs that are not directly accountable to a cost object.
Indirect costs may be either fixed or variable. Indirect costs include
administration, personnel and security costs. The total indirect cost can be
calculated from the following table,
76
Fixed Capital Investment = Direct cost + Indirect cost + Purchase
Equipment cost
= 1261.804 crores
= 660.506 crores
The cost for operating plant and selling the products is called total
product cost.
77
This value is obtained from using the following formula.
Total product cost = Total direct product cost + Plant overhead cost
Total direct product cost = Raw material cost + Direct product cost
78
Table 6.12 Direct product Cost of SRS
= 13.513 crores
79
Total product cost = Total direct product cost + Plant overhead cost
= 13.513 + 1.227
= 14.74 crores

NP = 523.63 crores
