INTRODUCTION
Accounting is often referred to as the language of business. It records prepare
transaction taken place during the accounting period with a view to prepare financial
statements. One of the important objectives of accounting is
1. To measure the profit of the business and
2. To ascertain the financial position of the business.
The former is done through the preparation of Profit and Loss account and the
later on the requires the preparation of Balance sheet. All according is done and
designed to prepare these financial statement periodically, usually once a year. These
statements provide vital information to several groups of affected parties like
shareholders, creditors, employees and other like researches, economist and
FINANCIAL ANALYSIS.
Definition: Before attempting to define accounting, it may be added that there is no
unanimity among accountants as to its precise definition. Out of the various
definitions, the most acceptable one is that given by AICPA committee on
terminology this is under.
Accounting is The art of recording, classifying and summarizing in a significant
manner and in terms of money, transactions and events which are, in part at least, of
financial character and interpreting the results therefore.
The length of operating cycle of a manufacturing firm is the sum of the
financial manager should determine the optimum level of current of shareholders to
be maximize
In our present day economy, finance is defined as the provision of
money at the time when it is required. Every enterprise, whether big, medium or
small, needs finance to carry on its operations and to achieve its targets. In fact,
finance is indispensable today that is rightly said that it is the life-blood of industry.
Without adequate finance, no enterprise can possibly accomplish its objectives.

Since finance is viewed as the most important factor in every enterprise,
therefore, the management requires special mention and attention. The conventional
approach to finance function in business highlights the procurement of funds on most
economic and favorable terms to the concern, but it ignores the efficient and proper
use of the successful of the enterprise. In very originations funds are needed for
ventures and project. How much to allocate when to allocate and how to allocate the
required funds to a particular project deserves special attention in very concern. The
management has to look into nook and corner of each project, the amount of funds
necessary for them and the source from which to attune. Financial management plays
a vital role in procurement allocation control of funds.
The basics for financial planning and analysis information. Financial
information is needed to predict, compare and evaluate the firms earning ability. It is
also required to aid in economic decision making investment and financing decision-
making. The financial information of an enterprise is contained in the financial
statement or accounting reports. It contains summary information of the firms
financial affairs, organized systematically. They are the means to present the firms
financial situation to owners, creditors and general public. Preparation of these
statements is the responsibility of top management.
FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
DEFINITION:
According to I.M.PANDEY financial management is that managerial
activity which is concerned with the planning and controlling of the firms financial
resources. Before we begin our odyssey, let us get a birds eye view of financial
management, also referred to as corporate finance or managerial finance,
beginning with its evolution, goal, its system and the statements.
EVOLUTION OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Financial management emerged as a distinct field of study at the turn of
20th century its evolution may be divided into three broad phases the traditional
2
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
3/69
phase, the transitional phase and the modern phase. The traditional phase lasted
for about four decades. The features are the focus of financial management was
mainly on certain episodic events like formation, issuance of capital, major expansion,
merger, liquidation; etc. The approach was mainly descriptive and institutional. The
outsiders point of view was dominate financial management was viewed mainly from
the point of view of the investment bankers, lenders, and other outside interests.
The transitional phase began around the early 1940 and continued through the
early 1950s. Though the nature of financial management during this phase was similar
to that of the traditional phase, greater emphasis was placed on the day-to-day
problems faced by financial manages in the area of funds analysis, planning and
control. The focus shifted to working capital management.
The modern phase began in the mid 1950s and has witnessed an
accelerated pace of development with the infusion of ideas from economic theory and
application of quantitative. The central concern of financial management is
considered to be a rational matching of funds to their uses so as to maximize the
wealth of current shareholders.
Since the beginning of the modern phase, many significant and seminal
development have occurred in the field of capital budgeting, capital structure theory,
efficient market theory, option-pricing theory, financial modeling etc. many more
exciting developments. There are mainly three broad areas of financial decision
making viz. capital budgeting, capital structure and capital structure and working
capital management.
IMPORTANCE OF FINANCE FUNCTIION
The role of the finance manager in a modern economy is ever changing. His
responsibilities are broadening and becoming more vital to the companys over-all
3

development. Once, these responsibilities were confided mainly to keeping accurate
financial records, preparing reports, managing the firms cash position and providing
the means for the payments of bills. When liquidity was insufficient for the firms
prospective cash needs, the financial manager was responsible for procuring
additional funds. However, this procurement often included only the mechanical
aspects of raising funds externally on either a short or intermediate, or long-term
basis.
In recent years, the influence of the financial manager has expanded for
beyond these limited functions. Now this concern with
(1) Allocating funds to specific assets and
(2) Obtaining the best mix of financing in relation to the over-all valuation of the
firm.
The former determines the size of the firm, its profits from operations, its
business risk, and its liquidity while the later determines the firms financial charges
and its financial risk. The financial manager needs to have a much broader out-look
than ever before, for this influence reaches into almost all facts of the enterprise and
into the enterprise and into external environmental as well.
Financial management is in many ways an integral part of the jobs of
managers who are involved in planning, allocation of resources and control. The
responsibilities for financial managers are dispersed throughout the organization.

The marketing analyst provides inputs in the process of forecasting and
planning.
The purchases manager influences the level of investment in inventories.
The purchase manager has a say in the determination of the receivables policy.
Departmental managers, in general, are important links in the financial control
system of the firm
There are, however, many tasks of financial management and allied areas, like
accounting, which are specialized in nature and which are attended to by specialists.
Financial management can be viewed as a form of applied economics that
draws heavily on economic theory. Financial management also draws certain data
from accounting, another area of applied economies.
ROLE OF FINANCIAL MANAGER
Until the early 1990s, the financial manager in India functioned n a highly
regulated environment and enjoyed very little latitude in designing key financial
policies.
After that, however, the complexion of the economic and financial
environment has changed in many ways. Those may be described as follows:
The industrial licensing framework has been substantially relaxed, leading to
considerable expansion in the scope of private sector investment.
The Monopolies Restrictive Trade Practices Act has been virtually abolished
and the Foreign Exchanges Monetary Act has been substantially liberalized. Freedom has been given to companies in designing and pricing the securities
issued by them.
They system of cash credit has been replaced by a system of working capital
loans.
Stable and administered interest rates have given way to volatile and market-
determined interest rates.
The scope for foreign direct investment has expanded considerably and
foreign portfolio investment has assumed great significance.

Investors have become more discerning, demanding and assertive.
The pace of merger, acquisitions, and restructuring has intensified.
Derivative instruments such as options and futures have been introduced.
Thanks to these changes, the job of financial manger in India has become
more important, complex and demanding. More so in the wake of global competition,
technological development, volatile financial prices, economic uncertainties, tax low
changes, ethical concerns over financial dealings, and shareholder activism. The
following are the areas in which a financial manager needs to face some key
challenges.
1. Financial structure
2. Mergers, acquisitions and restructuring
3. Working capital management
4. Performance management
5. Risk management
6. Corporate governance
7. Investor relations.
GOAL OF FINANCIAL MANAGEMENT
Much of the theory in corporate finance is based on the assumption that the goals of
the firm should be to maximize the wealth of its current shareholders.
Mr. ALFARED RAPPARPORT says in his book Lets Let Business Be Business.
in a market-based economy which recognizes the rights of private property, the only
social responsibility of business is to create value and do so legally with integrity. It is
a profound error to view increases in a companys value as concern just for its
6

7/69
shareholders. Enlightened managers and public officials recognize that increases in
stock prices reflect improvement I competitiveness an issue which affects everyone
who has a stake in the company or economy.
Besides the goal of maximizing shareholders wealth, several alternative goals
were suggested, such as maximization of profit, earnings per share return on equity.
INDUSTRY PROFILE
Indian aquaculture has demonstrated a six and half fold growth over the last two
decades, with freshwater aquaculture contributing over 95 percent of the total
aquaculture production. The production of carp in freshwater and shrimps in
brackishwater form the major areas of activity. The three Indian major carps, namely
catla (Catla catla ), rohu (Labeo rohita ) and mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala ) contribute the
bulk of production with over 1.8 million tonnes (FAO, 2003); followed by silver carp,
7

grass carp and common carp forming a second important group. Average national
production from still water ponds has increased from 0.6 tonnes/ha/year in 1974 to 2.2
tonnes/ha/year by 20012002 (Tripathi, 2003), with several farmers even
demonstrating production levels as high as 812 tonnes/ha/year. The technologies of
induced carp breeding and polyculture in static ponds and tanks virtually
revolutionised the freshwater aquaculture sector and turned the sector into a fast
growing industry. The research and development programs of the Indian Council of
Agricultural Research (ICAR) as well as the development support provided by the
Indian Government through a network of Fish Farmers' Development Agencies and
Brackishwater Fish Farmers' Development Agencies have been the principal vehicles
for this development, additional support has been provided by several other
organisations, departments and financial institutions. The farming of gian river prawn
(Macrobrachium rosenbergii ) has gained increased interest in recent years, due to its
high economic value and an annual production of over 30 000 tonnes has been
achieved through the use of monoculture practices. In addition, the sector has been
witnessing increased interest in diversification with the inclusion of high-valued
species, including medium and minor carps, catfishes, murrels etc. While carp and
other finfishes are grown for the domestic market, a large proportion of freshwater
prawn production is exported. In contrast, the development of brackish water
aquaculture has been confined to a single species, Penaeus monodon , the scientific
farming of which began only recently during the early 1990s. The area devoted to
shrimp farming extends to as much as 152 000 ha producing approximately 115 000
tonnes, the majority of which is destined for export.
Aquaculture in India, in general, is practised with the utilisation of low to moderate
levels of inputs, especially organic-based fertilisers and feed. India utilises only about
40 percent of the available 2.36 million hectares of ponds and tanks for freshwater
aquaculture and 13 percent of a total potential brackishwater resource of 1.2 million
hectares, in other words there is room for both horizontal and vertical expansion of
these sectors. With over 8 000 km of coastline there is immense potential for the
development of mariculture which has taken roots only in recent years with culture of
mussels and oysters. Considering the substantial contribution aquaculture makes
towards socio-economic development in terms of income and employment through
the use of unutilised and underutilised resources in several regions of the country,
8

environmentally friendly aquaculture has been accepted as a vehicle for rural
development, food and nutritional security for the rural masses. It also has immense
potential as a foreign exchange earner. Greater R&D support with strong linkages
between research and development agencies, increased investment in fish and prawn
hatcheries, establishment of aquaculture estates, feed mills and ancillary industries
have all been identified as important areas for maintaining the pace of growth of the
sector.
History and general overview
Aquaculture in India has a long history, there are references to fish culture in
Kautilya's Arthashastra (321300 B.C.) and King Someswara's Manasoltara (1127
A.D.). The traditional practice of fish culture in small ponds in eastern India is known
to have existed for hundreds of years, significant advances were made in the state of
West Bengal in the early nineteenth century with the controlled breeding of carp in
bundhs (tanks or impoundments where river conditions are simulated). Fish culture
received notable attention in Tamil Nadu (formerly the state of Madras) as early as
1911, subsequently, states such as Bengal, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Baroda, Mysore and
Hyderabad initiated fish culture through the establishment of Fisheries Departments.
Freshwater Aquaculture
The development of freshwater aquaculture in the country only finally became
established following the establishment of the Pond Culture Division at Cuttack in
1949 under the name of the Center of Central Inland Fisheries Research Institute
(CIFRI), West Bengal. Significant developments took place thereafter with the
standardisation of induced breeding techniques and the development of hatchery
systems and composite carp culture with the three Indian major carps and three exotic
carps, including silver and grass carp, forming the basis for carp polyculture systems.
An All India Coordinated Research Project (AICRP) on 'Composite Culture of Indian
and Exotic Fishes' initiated by the CIFRI during 1971 virtually laid the foundation for
scientific carp farming in the country by demonstrating high production levels of 810
tonnes/ha/yr. Subsequently, three more AICRPs on 'Spawn Prospecting', 'Air-
breathing Fish Culture' and 'Brackishwater Fish Culture' were launched. With the
9
-

10/69
ready availability of hormone formulations, the production of carp seed through
induced breeding led to a tremendous fillip and subsequently riverine seed collection
and bundh breeding became obsolete. The late 1980s saw the dawn of aquaculture in
India and transformed fish culture into a more modern enterprise. While the focus was
on the development of breeding and culture technologies for different species of carp,
other species such as catfish, murrels and prawns were also addressed.
The culture systems adopted in the country vary greatly depending on the input
available in any particular region as well as on the investment capabilities of the
farmer. While extensive aquaculture is carried out in comparatively large water bodies
with stocking of the fish seed as the only input beyond utilising natural productivity,
elements of fertilisation and feeding have been introduced into semi-intensive culture.
The different culture systems that have been standardised with optimum achievable
production rates are:
Composite carp culture (46 tonnes/ha/yr).
Sewage-fed fish culture (35 tonnes/ha/yr).
Weed-based carp polyculture (34 tonnes/ha/yr).
Biogas slurry-fed fish culture (35 tonnes/ha/yr).
Integrated fish farming with poultry, pigs, ducks, horticulture, etc. (35 tonnes/ha/yr).
Intensive pond culture with supplementary feeding and aeration (1015 tonnes/ha/yr).
Pen culture (35 tonnes/ha/yr).
Cage culture (1015 kg/m/yr).
Running-water fish culture (2050 kg/m/yr) (Gopakumar et al ., 1999).
Successful breeding and larval rearing of the giant river prawn (Macrobrachium
rosenbergii ) and the monsoon river prawn (M. malcolmsonii ) provided scope for the
farmers to diversify their culture practices. Monoculture of M. rosenbergii has
produced production levels of 1.01.5 tonnes/ha in a 78 month production cycle.
During recent years, the freshwater prawn farming sector has witnessed quite
impressive growth, recording a production of over 30 000 tonnes in 20022003 from
approximately 35 000 ha of water. The state of Andhra Pradesh dominates the sector
with over 86 percent of the total production in India with approximately 60 percent of
the total water area dedicated to prawn farming, followed by West Bengal. Mixed
farming of freshwater prawn along with carp is also very much accepted as a
technologically sound culture practice and a viable option for enhancing farm income.

Thirty five freshwater prawn hatcheries, at present producing about 200 million seed
per annum, cater for the requirements of the country.
With a view to providing a greater boost to aquaculture research and development, the
Indian Council of Agricultural Research in New Delhi reorganised the fisheries
research institutes in 1987, which led to the establishment of three separate institutes
namely: the, Central Institute on Freshwater Aquaculture (CIFA) at Bhubaneswar; the
Central Institute of Brackishwater Aquaculture (CIBA) at Chennai and the National
Research Centre on Coldwater Fisheries (NRCCWF) at Bhimtal in Nainital. The Pond
Culture Division of CIFRI later integrated into CIFA which has been instrumental in
the development of several technologies used in freshwater aquaculture and with their
dissemination through a number of first line extension projects, namely the National
Demonstration Project (NDP), Operational Research Project (ORP), Lab-to-Land
Program (LLP), Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Trainer's Training Centre (TTC),
Institution-Village Linkage Program (IVLP) and other Mission Mode Programs. The
credit for the development of freshwater aquaculture in the country must also include
a number of other agencies and programs undertaken in different parts of the country.
With fisheries development being considered a state subject, each state has a fully
fledged Fisheries Department, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Government of India
also provides additional coordination of development programs in the different states
and provides for centrally sponsored projects. For encouraging and publicising
freshwater aquaculture, the Indian government introduced a scheme known as the
'Fish Farmers' Development Agency (FFDA)' during 19731974 at the State level,
presently there are 422 FFDAs providing cover to the districts indicating major
potential in the country.
Brackishwater Aquaculture
Brackishwater farming in India is an age-old system confined mainly to the bheries
(manmade impoundments in coastal wetlands) of West Bengal and pokkali (salt
resistant deepwater paddy) fields along the Kerala coast. With no additional input,
except that of trapping the naturally bred juvenile fish and shrimp seed, these systems
have been sustaining production levels of between 500750 kg/ha/year with shrimp
11
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
12/69
contributing 2025 percent of the total. The importance of brackishwater aquaculture
was recognised only after the initiation of an All India Coordinated Research Project,
(AICRP) on 'Brackishwater Fish Farming' by ICAR in 1973. The project developed
several technologies pertaining to fish and shrimp farming, however, scientific and
commercial culture at present is restricted to farming of shrimps.
With the development of more commercial hatcheries, a phenomenal increase in the
area under shrimp farming occurred between 19901994, the formation of
Brackishwater Fish Farmers' Development Agencies (BFDA) in the maritime states
and the implementation of various Governmental programs to provide support to the
shrimp farming sector assisted with its further development. Demonstrations of semi-
intensive farming technology with production levels reaching 46 tonnes/ha
(Surendran et al ., 1991), coupled with credit facilities from commercial banks and
subsidies from the Marine Products Export Development Authority (MPEDA) helped
boost the shrimp farming sector. Farmed shrimp production increased from 40 000
tonnes in 19911992 to 115 000 tonnes in 20022003. Currently about 91 percent of
the shrimp farmers in India own less than 2 ha, 6 percent between 2 to 5 ha and the
remaining 3 percent have an area of greater than 5 ha. Out of the total area of 0.152
million ha presently being utilised for shrimp farming in the country, Andhra Pradesh
alone provides 47 percent of the area and contributes 50 percent of the total
production.
Studies on maturation and the breeding of shrimps were initiated by the Central
Marine Fisheries Research Institute (CMFRI) in the early 1970s. In the late 1980s
MPEDA established the Andhra Pradesh Shrimp Seed Production and Research
Centre (TASPARC) and the Andhra Pradesh and Orissa Shrimp Seed Production and
Research Centre (OSPARC) based in Orissa which provided assistance for the
establishment of a number of private hatcheries. At present about 237 shrimp
hatcheries operate in the country providing a total production capacity of 11.425
billion PL 20/year (Anon, 2002).
In India, commercial cultivation of brackishwater finfish is almost non-existent,
though experiments on monoculture as well as the polyculture of milkfish, pearl-spot,
mullets and sand whiting have shown their potential for farming.

Mariculture
The earliest attempt at mariculture in India was made at the Mandapam centre of
CMFRI in 19581959 with the culture of milkfish (Chanos chanos ), over the last
three decades, CMFRI has developed various technologies for a number of species
including oysters, mussels and clams among sedentary species, as well as for shrimps
and finfish.
The CMFRI initiated a pearl culture program in 1972 and successfully developed the
technology for pearl production in Indian pearl oysters, success in controlled breeding
and spat production of the Japanese pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata ) in 1981 and the
blacklip pearl oyster (P. margaritifera ) in 1984 was another important breakthrough.
CMFRI also took the lead in the development of the technology required for edible
oyster farming during the 1970s. Intensive research on various aspects of the culture
of the Indian backwater oyster (Crassostrea madrasensis ) have been made and the
technology has also been developed for the hatchery production of seed.
In India, two species of marine mussels namely the green mussel (Perna viridis ) and
the Indian brown mussel (P. indica ) are found in rocky coastal areas. Investigation of
the culture possibilities for mussels was initiated in early 1970s by the CMFRI which
resulted in the development of a range of practices for the culture of these species.
Among maritime states, Kerala was the first to recognise the advantages of utilizing
mussel farming technology in rural development, from a meagre production in 1997
cultured mussel production rose to 1 250 tonnes in 2002 with over 250 mussel farms
being established in the estuaries of Kerala.
Human resources
Although aquaculture in India has reached the status of an industry, a database with
details of human resources in aquaculture and allied sectors is lacking due to the
dispersed nature of aquaculture resources and non-availability of a suitable
mechanism for data collection. In a study conducted in six major aquaculture
producing Indian states (Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Karnataka, Orissa, Uttar Pradesh
and West Bengal), Bhatta (2003) reported the age of fish farmers ranged from
13
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
14/69
between 38 years in Andhra Pradesh to 58 years in Haryana with a national average of
47 years. The educational status of these fish farmers varied from 010 years of
schooling, a large percentage of these fish farmers practice aquaculture on a part time
basis with their involvement in the activity ranging from 17 man-days per annum in
Karnataka to the highest of 75 man-days in West Bengal. This study also inferred that
fish farming, though a part time activity, contributes a major share of the income of
these fish farmers, ranging from 14.98 percent in Orissa to 95.26 percent in Andhra
Pradesh, with an average of 79.66 percent.
With the development of shrimp farming the employment opportunities in coastal
areas has increased greatly. The average labour requirement in shrimp farming has
been estimated at about 600 labour days/crop/ha as against 180 labour days/crop/ha in
the case of paddy field cultivation (Rao and Ravindran, 2001). Case studies carried
out at a sea-based farm in the Nellore District of Andhra Pradesh showed an increase
of 215 percent employment and 622 percent income for farm labourers following
the establishment of shrimp farms (CIBA, 1997). In the brackishwater sector,
hatcheries and feed mills are also providing excellent employment opportunities and it
has been estimated that over 300 000 jobs have been generated in the main and
supporting sectors of the shrimp aquaculture sector in rural areas.
Farming systems distribution and characteristics
Aquaculture resources in India include 2.36 million ha of ponds and tanks, 1.07
million ha of beels, jheels and derelict waters plus in addition 0.12 million km of
canals, 3.15 million ha of reservoirs and 0.72 million ha of upland lakes that could be
utilised for aquaculture purposes. Ponds and tanks are the prime resources for
freshwater aquaculture, however, only about 0.80.9 million ha is used for
aquaculture currently. Ponds in eastern India are typically homestead ponds of less
than 1 ha in size, while the watersheds in Western India are larger covering expanses
of between 1525 ha each. In Northern India, open waters with in-flows are common,
while southern India has watersheds, termed as tanks, largely used for crop irrigation.
In several parts of the country ponds and tanks are state-owned or communal and are
leased out for periods of 35 years.
It has been estimated that about 1.2 million ha of potential brackishwater area
available in India is suitable for farming, in addition to this, around 8.5 million ha of
14
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
15/69
salt affected areas are also available, of which about 2.6 million ha could be
exclusively utilised for aquaculture due to the unsuitability of these resources for
other agriculture based activities. However, the total area under cultivation is only just
over 13 percent of the potential water area available. The farming of shrimp is largely
dependant on small holdings of less than 2 ha, these farms account for over 90 percent
of the total area utilised for shrimp culture, while large holdings of over 10 ha account
for only 1.54 percent of the total. Many of the farm holdings located in Kerala and
West Bengal belong to the traditional systems of shrimp farming.
Carp hatcheries in both the public and private sectors have contributed towards the
increase in seed production from 6 321 million fry in 19851986 to over 18 500
million fry at present. There are 35 freshwater prawn hatcheries in the coastal states
producing over 200 million seed per annum. Furthermore, the 237 shrimp hatcheries
with a production capacity of approximately 11.425 billion post larvae per year are
meeting the seed requirement of the brackish water shrimp farming sector.
Freshwater aquaculture activity is prominent in the eastern part of the country,
particularly the states of West Bengal, Orissa and Andhra Pradesh with new areas
coming under culture in the states of Punjab, Haryana, Assam and Tripura.
Brackishwater aquaculture is mainly concentrated on the coasts of Andhra Pradesh,
Tamil Nadu, Orissa and West Bengal. With regards to the market, while the main
areas of consumption for freshwater fish are in West Bengal, Bihar, Orissa and north-
eastern India, cultured brackishwater shrimps are destined mainly for export.
Cultured species
While carp form the most important species farmed in freshwater in India, it is the
shrimp from the brackishwater sector which contributes the bulk of the production.
The three Indian major carps, namely, catla (Catla catla ), rohu (Labeo rohita ) and
mrigal (Cirrhinus mrigala ) contribute as much as 87 percent of the total Indian
aquaculture production. Introduced during the 1970s into the carp polyculture systems
in the country, three exotic carps namely, silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix );
grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idellus ) and common carp (Cyprinus carpio ) now
form a second important group, together constituting as much as 0.169 million tonnes
(2002). In spite of the fact that the country also possesses several other cultivable
medium and minor carp species which show high regional demand, including, Labeo
15
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
16/69
calbasu , L. fimbriatus , L. gonius , L. bata , L. ariza , Cirrhinus mrigala , Puntius
sarana , Hypselobarbus pulchellus , H. kolus and Amblypharyngodon mola as well as
several others, commercial farming of these species has been almost non-existent
(Ayyappan and Jena, 2003).
Among the catfishes, walking catfish, 'magur' (Clarias batrachus ) is the only species
that has received much attention. Stinging catfish, 'Singhi' (Heteropneustes fossilis ) is
another air-breathing catfish species being cultured to a certain extent in swamps and
derelict water bodies, especially in the eastern states. In recent years, attempts have
been made to develop the culture of non-air breathing catfishes like Pangasius
pangasius , Wallago attu , Sperata seenghala , S. aor and Ompok pabda . The other
finfish species of importance include climbing perch (Anabas testudineus ), murrels
(Channa striata and C. marulius ) and tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus and
Oreochromis niloticus ). Among the freshwater prawns, the giant river prawn
(Macrobrachium rosenbergii ), is the most important species followed by the monsoon
river prawn, M. malcolmsonii .
Introduced in 1952, tilapia posed a serious threat to aquaculture systems due to its
prolific breeding capabilities which forced the country to ban the species for farming
in 1959; however, tilapia is still available in most parts of the country.
In an effort to develop the species positive or useful traits a large number of hybrids
were produced by crossing between Indian major carps, between Indian major carps
and Chinese carps and among Chinese carps, however, no significant advantages have
been able to be established from these hybrids. Selective breeding programs in rohu
based on the combined selection method taken by CIFA at Bhubaneswar in
collaboration with AKVAFORSK from Norway during the last ten years has led to
the production of a genetically improved strain (known as Jayanti ) which has shown
over 50 percent higher growth rates in three generations. This improved strain has
already become available in different parts of the country.
The brackishwater aquaculture sector is mainly supported by shrimp production as
well as giant tiger prawn (Penaeus monodon ), which are responsible for the bulk of
production followed by the Indian white prawn, P. indicus . Although India possesses
16
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
17/69
several other potential species of finfish and shellfish, production of these is still very
low key. In seawater the major farmed species are the green mussel (Perna viridis ),
brown mussel (Perna indica ), Indian backwater oyster (Crassostrea madrasensis ),
Japanese pearl oyster (Pinctada fucata ) and seaweed species like Gracilaria edulis .
Practices/systems of culture
Freshwater Aquaculture
Culture of carp
Carp culture is based around the 'polyculture' of the three Indian major carps (catla,
rohu and mrigal) as well as 'composite carp culture' of the three Indian major carps
with the three exotic carps (silver, grass and common carp). Standard practices in carp
culture include:
The stocking of carp at combined densities of between 4 00010 000 fingerlings/ha.
Pond fertilisation with organic manures from cattle or poultry as well as inorganic
fertilisers like urea and single super phosphate.
Provision of supplementary feeds mainly in the form of a mixture of rice bran/wheat
bran and groundnut/mustard oilcake in equal ratio.
The technology for such semi-intensive carp culture has demonstrated production
levels of 35 tonnes/ha/year, several farmers have even demonstrated higher
production levels of 812 tonnes/ha/year. The technologies involved in carp culture
virtually revolutionised freshwater aquaculture, ultimately raising the average Indian
production from still-water ponds from 600 kg/ha/year in 1970s to over 2 200
kg/ha/year at present.
Culture of catfish
The pond culture of catfish involves mainly magur (Clarias batrachus ) and singhi
(Heteropneustes fossilis ) and is practised in states like Bihar, West Bengal and
Orissa. Though modern farming techniques for these species advocates monoculture
at stocking densities of 20 00050 000 fingerlings/ha, inadequate availability of
juveniles has restricted these as a component in carp polyculture systems. Considering
the high market demand for catfish and the availability of a huge potential resource in
17

the form of swamps and derelict waters, commercial farming of these species are
being given important attention at present.
Culture of giant river prawn
The giant river prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii ) is the largest and fastest growing
species being farmed and possesses considerable demand both in domestic and
international markets. M. rosenbergii is cultured either alone (monoculture) or in
combination with carps (polyculture). The monoculture of giant river prawn is mostly
confined to earthen ponds with moderate stocking densities of between 20 00050
000/ha, fertilisation and supplementary feeding can result in a moderate yield of 600
1 000 kg/ha/8 months using single stocking and both single/multiple harvesting. The
polyculture of freshwater prawn juveniles as densities at 10 00015 000/ha alongside
carp at 3 0004 000/ha has also been demonstrated to be economically viable.
Non-conventional culture systems
Sewage-fed fish culture and rice paddy-cum-fish culture are two important culture
systems practiced in certain areas of the country; sewage-fed fish culture in bheries in
West Bengal is an age-old practice. About 5 700 ha is presently utilised for fish
culture using the input of primary-treated sewage and produces over 7 000 tonnes of
fish per annum, mainly consisting of the major and minor carps. The culture system
usually involves multiple stocking and multiple harvesting approaches, with harvest
size usually in the range of 300500 g. Though stocking densities of 10 00020
000/ha are common, densities as high as 50 000/ha has also been reported from
several farms. Experimental results have shown high potential productivity from these
systems with the record production reaching over 9 tonnes of fish/ha/year. Recently
aquaculture has also been employed as a major option for the treatment of domestic
sewage.
Paddy-cum-fish culture is undertaken in medium to semi-deepwater rice paddy fields
in lowland areas with fairly strong dykes to prevent the escape of cultivated fish
during floods, trenches and pond refuges in the paddy fields provide shelter for the
fish. The system mostly relies on natural stocking, however, modern farming
techniques involving major and minor carps stocked at the densities of 5 00010
18

000/ha alongside freshwater prawn are also practiced in several areas. Production
levels of 3.5 tonnes of rice and 0.51.0 tonne of fish/ha can be achieved in a well-
managed paddy-cum-fish farming systems within a year.
Brackishwater Aquaculture
Brackishwater aquaculture in India is restricted to shrimp farming utilising semi-
intensive culture practices mainly with giant tiger prawn at stocking densities of 0.1
0.3 million/ha. With the provision of a high protein diet, water exchange, aeration and
improved health management, production levels of 46 tonnes/ha have been
demonstrated in a production period of 45 months. However, the presence of white
spot syndrome during 19941995 drastically reduced prawn farming activity in the
late 1990s. The adoption of a more cautious approach including moderate stocking
densities and good management practices has helped in the revival of the sector and in
sustaining shrimp production of the country.
Mariculture
The status of mariculture is still low key, involving only a few shellfish species such
as green mussel (Perna viridis ) and brown mussel (P. indica ) using raft or longline
culture methods; Indian backwater oyster (Crassostrea madrasensis ) using rack and
ren, and the rack and tray method; and the farming of Japanese pearl oyster (Pinctada
fucata ) by raft culture.

CAPITAL BUDGETING
It is a process of investing funds. Current funds which are long term activities
with view to earn more profits. Over a series of years.
CONCEPT OF CAPITAL BUDGETING
Efficient allocation of capital is one of the most important function of the
financial management in modern times. This function involves the firm decision to
commit its funds in long-term assets and other profitable activities. The decision to
invest funds in the long term assets of a firm are quite significant and they will
influence the firms wealth, determine the size, get the pace and direction of its growth
and also affect the business risk.
The capital investment refers to the investment in various fixed assets whose
returns would be available only after a year. The investment in fixed assets will be
quite heavy and to be made immediately, but the returns will be available after a
period of one year. The investment decision of a company is commonly called as the
capital budgeting decisions of capital expenditure decisions.
In Authors View Capital Budgeting Means
Charles T. Horngren:
Capital Budgeting is a long term planning for making and financing proposed
capital outlays.
Robert N. Anthony:
The capital budget is essentially a list of what management believes to be
worth while projects for the acquisition of new assets together with the estimated cost
of each project.
Features of Capital Budgeting
The following are the features of the capital budgeting

The exchange of current funds for future benefits.
The funds are invested in long-term assets.
The future benefits will occur to the firm over a series of years.
TYPES OF INVESTMENT DECISIONS
There are many ways to classify the investment decisions. One classification is
as follows.
Expansion of existing business
Expansion of new business
Replacement and modernization
Expansion of existing business: A company may add capacity to its existing product
lines to expand existing operations. The firm may makes investment in the
expectation of additional revenue. This is also called Related Diversification.
Expansion of new business: A firm may expand its activities in a new business.
Expansion of new business requires investment in new products and a new kind of
production activity with the firm. This is also called as Unrelated Diversification.
Replacement and Modernization: The main objective of modernization and
replacement is to improve operating efficiency and costs. Replacement decisions helpto introduce more efficient and economical assets and therefore, are also called Cost-
Reduction investments. However, replacement decisions that involve substantial
modernization and technological improvements expand revenues as well as reduce
costs.
CAPITAL BUDGETING PROCESS

27/69
The Capital budgeting process involves generation of investment proposals,
Estimation of cash flows for the proposals, evaluation of cash flows, selection of
projects based on acceptance criterion, and finally the continual revaluation of
investment after their acceptance. The steps involved in capital budgeting process are
as follows.
1. Project generation
2. Project evaluation
3. Project selection
4. Project execution
SIGNIFICANE AND PRESENTATION
Capital budget decisions are among the most crucial business decision. A
number of factors are responsible for capital budget decisions. Care must be taken
while making capital budget decisions influence all the departments of the company
such as production, marketing, personal etc. the other reasons for keeping more
attention include the following.
1. Investment of huge funds
2. Long-term implications
3. Irreversible decisions

NEED FOR THE STUDY
It is a significant to emphasize that expenditures and benefits of an investment
should be measured in cash. In the investment analysis it is cash flow which is
important not the accounting profit. It may also be pointed out that investment
decisions affect the firms value. The firms value will increase if investments are
profitable and to the shareholders wealth. That investment should be evaluated on the
basis of criterion which is compatible with the objective of the shareholders wealth
maximization. An investment will add to the shareholders wealth. If it yields benefits
in a excess of the minimum benefits as for the opportunity part of capital.

DATA ANAYSIS AND INTERPRETATION
METHODS OF CAPITAL BUDGETING
The capital budgeting appraisal methods or techniques of evaluation of
investment proposals will help the company to decide upon the desirability of an
investment proposals depending upon their relative income generating capacity and
rank them in proposal depending upon their desirability. These methods provide the
company a set of norms on the basis of which, either it has to accept or reject the
investment proposal. Therefore, a sound appraisal method should enable the company
to measure the real worth of the investment proposal.
All Capital Budgeting Techniques Divided in to Two Types
1. Traditional (or) Non Discounted Cash Flow Techniques
A. Pay Back Period Method (P.B.P)
B. Accounting Rate of Return Method (or) Average Rate of Return
Method (A.R.R)
2. Modern (or) Time Adjusted (or) Discount cash flow TechniquesA. Net Present Value Method (N.P.V)
B. Internal Rate of Return Method (I.R.R)
C. Profitability Index Method (P.I.M)
1. Non Discounted Cash Flow (or) Traditional Methods
These methods are based on principles to determine the desirability of an
investment project on the basis of its useful life and expected returns. These methods
33
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
34/69
depend upon the accounting information available from the books of accounts of the
company. These will not take into account the concept of time value of money,
which is a significant factor to determine the desirability of a project in terms of
present value.
A) Pay Back Period Method (P.B.P)
Pay Back Period Method is one of the used popular methods in Traditional
cash flow techniques. Here pay back refers The number of years required recovering
the original cash outlay invested in a project.
According to Weston and Brigham The pay back period is the number of
years it takes for the firm to recover its original investment by net returns before
depreciation, but after taxes.
Pay back period method cab be calculated with the help of the following
formula
Acceptance Rules
You should accept the project it pay back period is less
You should reject the project it pay back period is high
Merits of the Method:
1. Easy to understand
2. Easy calculation
3. Less cost
4. Easy availability of information
5. More useful to small sector6. Possibility for quick decision making

Demerits of the Method:
Here time value of money is not consider
Maximization of market value not possible
Failure in considering time value of money
Non-consideration of interest factor
Failure in taking magnitude and timing of possible
B) Accounting (or) Average Rate of Return Method (A.R.R)
It is an accounting method, which uses the accounting information revealed by
the financial statements to measure the profitability of an investment proposal. It can
be determined by dividing the average income after taxes by average investment that
is the average book value after depreciation. According to Solomon, according to rate
of return on an investment can be calculated as the ratio of accounting net income to
the initial investment.
Accounting (or) Average rate of return method can be calculated with the help of the
following formula
Average Income
Average Rate of Return (A.R.R) = ------------------------- X 100

Acceptance Rules:-
Accept the project if calculated average rate of return is greater than the cost
of capital.
Reject the project if calculated average rate of return is less than cost of
capital.
Merits of the Method:
1. Easy to understand
2. Easy to calculate
3. It can be readily computed with the help of the available accounting data
4. It uses the entire stream of earnings to calculate the ARR
5. It is better method when we compare with pay back period method because
here the entire cash in flow values generated by the project were considered.
Demerits of Method:-
1. Time value money is not considered
2. It is not based on cash flows generated by a project.
3. It does not take into account the fact that the profits can be reinvested.4. It ignores the time value of money.
5. This method does not consider the objective of wealth maximization.
2. Modern (or) Discounted Cash flow methods
The discounted cash flow methods provide a more objective basis for
evaluating and selecting an investment project. These methods considered the
magnitude and timing of cash flow methods enable us to is late the differences in the
timing of cash flow of project by discounting them to know the present value. The
36

present value can be analysed to determine the desirability of the project. These
techniques adjust the cash flow over the life of a project for the time value of money.
The discounted cash flow methods are:
a. Net Present Value Method
b. Internal Rate of Return Method, and
c. Profitability Index Method.
A) Net Present Value Method (N.P.V)
Net Present Value method is the wildly used and more sophisticated project
Evaluation methods under discounted cash flow method. It is a superior method
because the value of cash in flow are taken at discounted value of one rupee. Net
present value is calculated by sub stating present value of cash in flow from present
value of cash out flows. It recognizes the importance of time value of money.
According to Ezra Solomon, It is a present value of future returns, discounted
at the required rate of return, minus the present value of the investment. Net present
value method can be calculated with the help of the following formula,
Net Present Value (N.P.V) = Present Value of Cash In Flows Present Value of
Cash Out Flows
Acceptance Rules:-
The present value of investment out lays and cash inflows are to be calculated
using present value table. The decision criteria for accepting or rejecting.
A project a given under:NPV>Zero Accept the proposal
NPVC Accept the proposal
NPV
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
38/69
Here
NPV = Present value of cash in flows
C= Present value of cash outflows
Zero NPV implies a situation where the
firm can only recover the original investment.
Merits of the Method:-
It consider time value of money, it consider all cash in flow values generated
by the project, it considers the cost of capital for discounting rates of one Rupee
which is more appropriate method it is considered as true method of profitability.
1. Recognition to the time value of money: This method explicitly recognizes the
time value of money, which is inevitable for making meaningful financial decisions.
2. Consideration to total cash in flows: The NPV method considers the total cash in
flows of investment opportunities over the entire lifetime of the project unlike the
payback period method.
Demerits of the Method:
1. Difficult to understand
2. Difficult to calculate
3. The concept of discounting factor may not suttees for all projects in a similar
way
4. The NPV calculated by using the cost of capital as a discount rate. But the
concept of cost of capital it self is difficult to understand and determine.

B) Internal Rate of Return Method (I.R.R)
The Internal Rate of Return is to be determined by trial and error method. The
following steps can be used for its computation.
1. Compute the present value of the cash flows from an investment, by using an
arbitrarily selected interest rate.
2. Then compare the present value so obtained with investment cost.
3. If the present value is higher than the cost, then the present value of inflows is
to be determined by using higher rate.
4. This procedure is to be continued until the present value of the flows from the
investment are approximately equal to its cost.
5. The interest rate that brings about this equality is the Internal Rate of Return.
If the Internal Rate of Return exceeds the required rate of return, then the
project is accepted. If the projects IRR is lower than the required rate of return, it will
be rejected. In the case of ranking the proposal, the technique of IRR is significantly
used. The projects with highest rate of return will be ranked as firs, compared to the
lowest of return projects.
Internal Rate of Return method can be calculated with the help of the following
formula
Positive Value Investment
I.R.R=Lower Discount Rate+ ------------------------------------- X
Positive Value Negative Value
Difference Between Positive and Negative Constants

Merits of the Methods:-
1. Consideration of time value of money
2. Consideration of total cash flows
3. Easier appeal to the users
4. Maximization market share possible
5. Provision for risk and uncertainty
6. Elimination of pre-determined discount rate
Demerits of the method:
1. It is very difficult to understand and use
2. It involves a very complicated computational work
3. It may not give unique answer in all situations
4. The assumption re-investment of cash flows may not be possible in
practice
C). Profitability Index Method (P.I)
This method is also known as Benefit cost ratio, According to van Horne,
The profitability index of a project is the ratio of the present value of future net cash
flow to the present value of initial cash out flows.
Profitability index method can be calculated with the help of the following
formula.
Present Value of Cash In Flows
Profitability index(P.I)= --------------------------------------------
Present Value of Cash Out Flows
Acceptance Rules:-
We will accept the project it profitability index is >1
We will reject the project if profitability index is
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
41/69
Merits of the Method;-
1. It takes into account time value of money
2. It requires less computation work than IRR method
3. It helps to accept/reject investment proposal on the basis of the value of index
4. It is useful to rank the proposal on the basis of the highest/lowest value of the
index
In this work cash inflow values are not given directly. In order to calculate cash in
flow values we will use the following formula
Cash In Flow Values=Depreciation
A number of capital budgeting techniques are used in practice. They may be
grouped as follows
1. Net Present Value Method
2. Internal Rate Of Return Method And
3. Profitability Index method

1. PAY BACK PERIOD METHOD
Pay back period method is a traditional method of evaluation of capital
budgeting decision. The term pays back out or payoff refers to the period in which the
project will generate the necessary cash and recoup the initial investment or the cash
out flows.
MBP is case, to calculate the pay period, the cumulative cash flows will be
calculated and by using interpolation the exact period my be calculated.
The MBP of AQUADEV INDIA LTD has Rs. 1546.60 lacks and the initial
investment (as shown in the capital expenditure table of MBP and the annual cash
flows for the year 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006 and 2007. Then the pay back period may be
calculated as follows.

The above table shows that, the pay back period lies in second and third year
with Rs. 1470.85 and 1850.55 i.e initial investments 1546.05.
The amount has been recovers in the second year and the remaining amount in
third year (1546.05-1470.85=75.20) recovered in 3 years. This means the pay back
period lies between second and third year. The pay back period is computed below.

= 2 + 0.19
= 2.19 years
Pay back period (PBP) = 2.19 year.
ACCEPT-REJECT CRITERION
PBP can be used as criterion to accept or reject an investment proposal. A
proposal whose actual pay back period is more than what is pre-determined by the
management.
PBP thus is useful for the management to accept the investment decision on
the AQUADEV INDIA LTD and also to assist management to know that the initial
investment is recorded in 2.19 years
MERITS:
This method makes it clear that no profit arise till the pay back period is over
This method is simple to understand and equal to calculate.
This method prefers investment in short-term periods therefore it reduces the
possibility of loss on account of obsolescences
DEMERITES:
This method does not take into account the time value of money. A rupee
today is definitely worth more than a rupee after a year. This basic fact
ignored by this method.
Hazy as long term out look when future is uncertain is uncertain on account
conditional, this method may be appropriate but not always suitable.

II. ACCOUNTING OR AVERAGE RATE OF RETURN METHOD:
It is another traditional method of capital budgeting evaluation. According to
this method the capital investment proposals are judged on the basis of their relative
profitability. The capital employed and related incomes are determined according to
the commonly accepted accounting principles and practices over the certain life of
project and the average yield is calculated. Such a rate is called the accounting rate of
return or the average return or ARR.
Accounting Rate of Return method can be calculated with the help of the
following formula
Average Income
Average Rate of Return (A.R.R) = ------------------------- X 100
Average Investment
Here
Total Profit Earned by the project in all the years

Interpretation
The Average Rate of Return of the project is 85.18% which is higher than the
rate specified by the Aquadev India ltd
ACCEPT-REJECT CRITERION
ARR method allows AQUADEV INDIA LTD to fix a minimum rate of return.
Any project expected to give a return below it will be straight away rejected. The
average rate of return is as good as 40% of MBP depicts the prospects of management
efficiency.
MERITS:
It is very simple to understand and easy to operate.
It uses the entire earnings of the projects in calculating rate of return and not
only the earning up to the pay back period and hence gives a better view of
profitability as compared to pay period.
As this method is based upon accounting concept of profit, it can be readily
calculated from the financial data.DEMERITES:
This method also like payback method ignore the time value of money as the
profits are earned at different points of time are given equal weight by
averaging the profits. It ignores the fact that rupee to day is more value than
the rupee earned a year after or so.
It does not take into consideration those cash flows, which are more importantthan the accounting profits.
This method cannot be applied to a situation where investment in a project is
to be maid in parts.
TIME ADJUSTED (OR) DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW METHOD
49
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
50/69
The time adjusted or discounted cash flow methods into accounts the
profitability time value of money. These methods are also called the modern methods
of capital budgeting.
1. NET PRESENT VALUE METHOD (NPV)
Net present value method or NPV is one of the best of evaluating the capital
investment proposals. Under this method cash flows and outflows associated with
each project are first calculated.
ROLE OF DISCOUNTING FACTOR
The cash inflows and outflows are converted to the present values using
discounting factors which is the actually discounted factor of mangampet barites
project of AQUADEV INDIA LTD is 8%. The rate of return is considering as cut off
rate or required rate or rate generally determined on the bases of cost of capital to
allow for the risk element involved in the project.
STEPS FOR CALCULATION OF NET PRESENT VALUE METHOD
50
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
51/69
Calculation of each cash flows after taxes of three years, which is arrived at by
deducting depreciation, interest and tax from earnings before tax and interest
(EBIT). This residue is profit after tax arrives at cash flow after tax.
This cash flow after tax are multiplied with the value obtained from the A-3table (the present value annuity table against the 8% actuary discount. Rate i.e.
in the case of mangampet barites project.
NPV is derived be deducting the sum of present values from the initial
investment.
Initial investments are the sum of cash flows of 5 years shown in capital
expenditure table i.e., 1546.05.

Interpretation
The Net Present Value method we will accept the project. The decision criteria
for accepting this project because the Net Present Value project is positive value. So
this project is acceptable.
ACCEPT-REJECT CRITERION
The accept reject decision of NPV is very simple. If the NPV is positive the
project should be accept and if NPV is negative the project should be accepted and if
NPV is negative the project should be rejected.
NPV > 0 (ACCEPT)
NPV > 0 (REJECT)
Hence in the case of managampet barites project it is visible that the positive
NPV shows the acceptance and importance of the project.
MERITS:
It recognizes the time value of money and is suitable to be applied in situations
with
Uniform cash outflows and uneven cash flows at different periods of time.
It takes into account the earnings over the entire life profitability of the
investment proposal can be evaluated.
It takes into consideration of objective of maximum profitability.
52
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
53/69
DEMERITES:
As compared to the traditional method, the NPV is more difficult tounderstand.
It may not give good result wile comparing projects with unequal investment
of funds.
It is not easy to determine an appropriate discount rate.
2. INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN METHOD (IRR)
The internal rate of return method is also a modern technique of capital
budgeting that takes into account the time value of money. It is also known as TIME
ADGUSTED RATE OF RETURN DISCOUNTED CASH FLOW
DISCOUNTED RATE OF RETURN, YEILD METHOD and TRAIL AND
ERROR YEILD METHOD.
IRR is the rate the sum of discounted cash inflows equals the sum of
discounted cash outflows. It equals the present value of cash inflow to present value
of cash outflow.
In this method discounted rate is not known, but the cash inflows and cash
outflows are known. It is the rate of return, which equates the present value of cash
inflows to out flows or it, is the rate of return, which renders NPV TO ZERO.
STEPS INVOLVED IN THE CALCULATION OF IRR
1) Calculation of out flow after tax.
2) Calculation fake pay back period or factor the initial investment by average cash
flows.
Initial Investment
i.e. Factor of facke pay back period = -----------------------Average cash flows
53
-
7/29/2019 Aqua Dev India LTD
54/69
3) Look for the factor in the present annuity table in the years column until arriving
at the figure, which is at the closest to the fake pay back period.
4) Note corresponding percentage.
5) Calculated NPV at that percentage
6) If NPV is positive take the higher rate and if the NPV is negative take the rate
lower and once again calculated NPV.
7) Continue step 5 until arriving at two rates, one giving the positive NPV and the one
negative
8) Using interpolation to arrive at the actual IRR i.e. actual IRR can be calculated by
using the following formula.
Present value of lower rate cash out flow
Lower rate+----------------------------------------------x Difference in rates
Present value of lower rate present value of higher rates

The cutoff rate of MBP in AQUADEV INDIA LTD is 8% which is less than
the IRR i.e. 30.72. Hence the acceptance of MBP is quit a good investment decision
taken by management.
MERITS:
It takes into account the time value of money can be usually applied in
situation with even as well as uneven cash flows at different periods.
It considers the profitability of the project for its entire economic life and
hence enables evaluation of the profitability.
It provides for uniform ranking of various proposals due to the percentage
rate of return.
It is also compatible with the objectives of maximum profitability and is
considered to be more reliable technique of capital budgeting.
DEMERITS:
It is difficult to understand and is most difficult method of
evaluating investment proposals.
The result of NPV method and IRR method may differ with the
projects under evaluation differ in the size, life and timing of cash
flows.
3. PROFITABILITY INDEX
Profitability index method is also known as time adjusted method of
evaluating the investment proposals. Profitability also called as benefit cost ratio in
relationship between present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash
outflows.
