Finance is so indispensable today that it is rightly said to be life hood of an enterprise. The
subject finance has been traditionally classified into two classes
1. Public finance: - it deals with the requirements, receipts and disbursements of
funds in the government institutions like state local self governments and central
government.
2. Private finance: - it concerned with the requirements and disbursement of funds in case
of an individual, a profit seeking business organization and non profit organization.
Approaches of finance
1. The finance approach views finance as to providing of funds needed by a business on
most suitable terms this approach confirms finance to the raising of funds and to the study
of financial institutions from where funds can be procured.
2. The second approach relates finance to cash.
3. The third approach views finance is being concerned with raising of funds and their
effective utilization.
Definition of F. M.
Financial management refers to that part of the management activity which is
concerned with the planning and controlling of firms financial resources. It deals with

Objectives of Financial Management
Financial management is concerned with procurement and use of funds. Its main
aim is to use business funds in such a way that the firm's earnings are maximized. There
are various alternatives available for using business funds. The pros and cons of various
decisions have to look in to before making a final selection. F.M provides a frame work
for selecting proper cause of action and deciding a viable commercial strategy. The main
objective of a business is to maximize the owner economic welfare. These objectives can
be achieved by
1. Profit maximization 2. Wealth maximization
Fixed assets
Fixed assets are those assets which are required and held permanently for a pretty
long tine in the business and are used for the purpose of earning profits. The successful
continuance of the business depends upon the maintenance of such assets, they are not
meant for resale in the ordinary long as they are in work order, so they are also known as
capital assets. Land and buildings, plant & machinery, motor vans, furniture and fixtures
are some examples of these assets.
Financial transactions are recorded in the books keeping in view the going
concern aspect of the business unit. It is assumed that the business unit has a reasonable
expectation of continuing business at a profit for an indefinite period of time. It will
continue to operate in the future. This assumption provides much or the justification for
recording fixed assets at original cost and depreciating them in a systematic manner
without reference to their current realizable value.
It is useless to show fixed assets in the balance sheet at their estimated realizable
values if there is no immediate expectation of selling them.
The market value of a fixed asset may change with the passage of time, but for
accounting purpose it continues to be shown in the books at its bulk value I. e, the cost at
which it was purchased minus depreciation provided up-to-date

Management of fixed assets
The selection of various fixed assets require creating the desired production,
facilities and decision as regards determination o the level of the fixed assets is primarily
the task at their production/technical people. The decision relating to fixed assets involve
huge funds for a long period of time and are generally of irreversible nature affecting the
long term profitability of a concern. An unsound investment decision may prove to be
total very existence of the organization thus management of fixed assets is of vital
importance to any organization.
The process of fixed assets management involves:
1. Selection of most worthy projects or alternatives of fixed assets
2. Arranging the funds/capital for the same
First important consideration to be acquire only that amount of fixed assets
which will be just sufficient to ensure smooth and efficient running of the business. In
some cases it may be economical to buy certain assets in lot size.
Second consideration to be kept in mind is possible increase in demand of the
firm's product necessarily expansion of its activities. Hence a firm should have that much
amount of fixed assets, which could adjust to increase demand.
Third aspect of fixes assets management is the firm must ensure buffer stocks of
certain essential equipments/ services to ensure uninterrupted production in these events
of emergencies. Sometimes, there may be a breakdown in some equipment or services
affecting the entire production. It is always better to have some alternative arrangements
to deal with such situations but at the same time the cost of carrying such buffer stock
should also be evaluated. Efforts should also be made to minimize the level of buffer
stock of fixed assets be encouraging their maximum utilization during learn period,
transferring a part of peak period and living additional capacity.

Need for valuation of fixed assets
Valuation of fixed assets is important in order to have fair measure of profit or loss
and financial position of the concern.
Fixed assets are meant for use for many years. The value of these assets decreases
with their use or with time of for other reasons. A portion of fixed assets reduced by use is
converted into cash through charging depreciation. For correct measurement of income,
proper measurement of deprecation is essential as depreciation constitutes a part of the
total cost of production.

LONG TERM CAPITAL BUDGATING WITH AN EXAMPLE
(UNDEREXPANSION CATEGORY.)
Stage III-1 X 500 MW was started recently in Ramagundam. This is taken as an example
in studying how the investment decision is made. Construction itself took 5-6years. Its
benefits are enjoyed for several years. For this purpose, estimating cash outlay for 5-6
year period of construction and estimating cash inflows for 20-30 years is very critical in
practice. Into peep in to such critical, this example has been taken up.
Introduction:
RSTPS was originally conceived for an ultimate capacity of 2100 M W, consisting of
3units of 200MW & 3units of 500 MW each. This capacity has already been
commissioned and is under operation Recently one additional unit of 500MW. Capacity
was commissioned thus increasing the station capacity to 2600 MW.
Project-Highlights:
Location: Ramagundam, Karimnagar District, Andhra pradesh.
Land requirement: 10,000 Acres of land for three stages and 100Acres for railways.
Capacity: Stage I: 3 X 200 MW
Stage II: 3 X 500 MW
Stage III: 1X 500 MW
Fuel: Coal
Coal Linkage: Peak coal requirement is 9400 tones per day, based on designed calorific
value of 3200 kcal/kg. Linkage is granted by Ministry of Coal from western coalfields,
coal is also received from WCL & SCCL.
Beneficiary States: States in southern India.
Project Financing: Overall Debt-Equity Ratio is 70:30. Debt is means of domestic
borrowing carrying an overall Interest Rate of 16.5%.

Project cost: Power plant & facilities cost Rs.1229.38 millions including IDC, WMC/3rd
Qtr.'98 price level. (IDC-Interest During Construction). (WCM-Working Capital Margin).
Cost of Generation: 259.31 paise /KWH.
Environmental aspects: No objection certificate from APSPCB (Andhra Pradesh State
Pollution Control Board) & MOEF (Ministry of Environment and Forest).
Commissioning Schedule : 56 Months.
Demand Analysis and Justification:
RSTPS stage III is expected to yield to the southern region during 10 th plan (2002-2007)
& beyond. Southern region has experienced peaking shortage of 3226 MW (19.5%),
energy shortage of 13,349 MW (17.3%) during 19971998 it is expected to continue during
1998-1999 also. If proper steps are not taken Southern region has to face major demand &
supply gap by the end of 10th plan period. In view of above, RSTPS stage III is fully
justified in the angle of required augmentation to neutralize the shortages. This RSTPS
stage III is of 500 MW.
Usually in case of power projects, the feasibility study is conducted in terms of the
following:
Site selection
Location
Road Approach
Road Distance
Railway
Airport

Importance of Investment Decisions :
They influence the firm's growth in long run.
They effect the risk of the firm.
They involve commitment of large amount of funds.
They are irreversible, or reversible at substantial loss.
They are among the most difficult decisions to make.
Types of Investment Decisions :
Expansion of existing business, Expansion of
new business. Replacement & Modernization.
Evaluation criteria :
Estimation of cash flows.
Estimation of the required rate of return.
Application of a decision rule for making the choice.
Consideration of cash flows is to determine true profitability of the project and it is an
unambiguous way of identifying good projects from the pool. Ranking is possible it
should recognize the fact that bigger cash flows are preferable to smaller ones & early
cash flows are referable to later ones I should help to choose among mutually exclusive
projects that which maximizes the shareholders wealth. It should be a criterion which is
applicable to any considerable investment project independent of others.
There are number of techniques that are in use in practice. The chart of techniques
can be outlined as follows :

Non-discounted Cash Flows Disconnected Cash Flows
Pay Back Period (PB) Net Present Value (NPv)
Accounting Rate of Return (ARR) Internal Rate

Profitability India (PI)
Discounted Payable period
NPV :
It is classic economic method of evaluating the investment proposals. It explicitly
recognizes the time value of money. Correct postulation of cash flows arising at different
time periods improving that they differ in value are comparable only when their
equivalents present values are found out.
Steps :
1. Cash flows should be forecasted based on realistic assumptions.
2. Appropriate discount rate (that is firms opportunity cost of capital) should be identified.
3. Present value of cash flows should be calculated using
opportunity cost.

4. NPV is calculated by subtracting present value of cash outflows form present value of
cash inflows.
Acceptance Rule :
Accept if NPV > 0
Reject if NPV < 0
May Accept if NPV = 0
One with higher NPV is selected.
IRR :
It takes into account of the magnitude & timing of cash flows. IRR is called so
because it depends solely on the outplay & proceeds associated with the investment & not
on any rate determined outside the investment. IRR is the discount rate that make NPV =
0.
Acceptance Rule :
Accept if r > k where r = rate return
Reject if r < k k = opportunity cost of capital
May accept if r = k
Value additivity principal does not hold when IRR methods is use - IRR of projects do not
add.
Profitability Index (PI) :
It is benefit cost ratio. It is ration of present value of cash inflows at the required
rate of return, to the initial cash outflow of the investment.
PI = PV of cash inflows

Initial Cash outlay
Acceptance Rule :
Accept if PI > 1
Reject if PI < 1
May accept if PI I
PI is a relative measure of projects profitability.
Pap Back :
It is defined as the number of years required to recover the original cash outlay
invested to recover the original cash outlay invested in a project.
If project generates constant annual cash inflows, the pay back period is completed
as follows.
Pay Back = Initial Investment
----------------------
Annual cash inflow
In case of unequal cash inflows, the payback period can be found out by adding up
the cash inflows until the total is equal to initial cash outlay.
Acceptance Rule :
Accept if calculated value is less than standard fixed by management otherwise
reject it.
In case of ranking method, accept the lowest rank.

Discounted Pay Back Period :
One of the serious objections to pay back method is that it does not discount the
cash flows. Hence discounted pay back period has come into existence. The number of
periods taken in recovering the investment outlay on the present value basis is called the
discounted pay back period.
Discounted pay back rule is better as it does discount the cash flows until the
outlay is recovered.
ARR :
It is also known as return on investment ( ROI). It was accounting information as
revelated by financial statements, to measure the profitability of an investment. ARR can
be computed as follows:
ARR = Average Income
----------------------------
Average Investment
Average Income = Average of after tax profit. Average Investment = Half of Original
Investment.
Acceptance Rule :
Accept if calculated rate is higher than minimum rate established by the management.
Otherwise reject.
Incase of raking, highest ARR is given number one rank.

CAPITAL BUDGETING METHODS IN PRACTICE
In a study of the capital budgeting practices of fourteen medium to large size
companies in India, it was found tat almost all companies used by back.
With pay back and/or other techniques, about 2/3rd of companies used IRR and
about 2/5th NPV. IRR s found to be second most popular method.
Pay back gained significance because of is simplicity to use & understand, its
emphasis on the early recovery of investment & focus on risk.
It was found that 1/3rd of companies always insisted on computation of pay back for
all projects, 1 /3rd for majority of projects & remaining for some of the projects.
Reasons for secondary of DCF techniques in India included difficulty in
understanding & using threes techniques, lack of qualified professionals &
unwillingness of top management to use DCF techniques.
One large manufacturing and marketing organization mentioned that conditions of
its business were such that DCF techniques were not needed.
. Yet another company stated that replacement projects were very frequent in the
company, and it was not considered necessary to use DCF techniques for evaluating
such projects. techniques in India included difficulty in understanding & using
threes ..,techniques, lack of qualified professionals & unwillingness of top
management to use DCF techniques.

PROCESS
CAPITAL BUDGETING PROCESS:
At least five phases of capital expenditure planning & control can be identified:
Identification (or Organization) of investment opportunities.
Development of forecasts of benefits and costs.
Evaluation of the net benefits.
Authorization for progressing and spending capital
expenditure.
Control of capital projects.
Investment Ideas :
Investment opportunities have to be identified or created investment proposals
arise at different levels within a firm.
Nature of Ida Level
Cost reduction Plant Level
Replacement ( 50% in India cover this level)
Expansion Top management
Diversification (in India, it is insignificant)
New Product Marketing department (or) Plant Manager
Replacing an oldMachine ( or)
Improving the Factory Level.
Production techniques.
Enough investment proposals should be generated to employ the firm's funds fully well &
efficiently.

FORECASTING :
Cash flow estimates should be development by operating managers with the help
of finance executives. Risk associated should be properly handled. Estimation of cash
flows requires collection and analysis of all qualitative and quantitative data, both
financial and non-financial in nature. MIS provide such data.
Correct treatment should be given to :
Additional working capital
Sale proceeds of existing assets.
Depreciation
Financial flows (to be distinguished from operation flows)
EVALUATION :
Group of experts who have no ake to grind should be taken in selecting the
methods of evaluation as NPV, IRR, PI, Pay Back, ARR & Discounted Pay Back.
Pay Back period is used as "Primary" method & IRR/ NPV as "Secondary"
method in India. The following are to be given due importance.
For evaluation, minimum rate of return or cut-off is necessary.
Usually if is computed by means of weighted Average cost of Capital (WACC)
Opportunity cost of capital should be based on risky ness of cash flow of
investment proposals.
Assessment of risk is an important aspect. Sensitivity Analysis & Conservative for
costs are two important methods used in India.

Long Term Capital Budgeting In NTPC
PRE - INVESTMNET STAGE
In a planned economy, as in India, the identification of public sector projects needs
to be done within the overall framework of national the sectoral planning. All projects of
every sector need to be identified scientifically at the time of plan formulation. In actual
practice, however, it is observed that `identification' stage is the most neglected stage of
the project planning.
The five year plans indicate the broad strategy of planning economic growth rate
and other basic objectives to be achieved during the plan period. The macro level planning
exercise undertaken at the beginning of every five year plan indicates broadly the role of
each sector's physical targets to be achieved and financial outlays, which could be made
available for the development of the sector during the plan period.
The identification of a project in the Five Year Plan is not the sanction of the
project for implementation. It provides only the `green signal' for the preparation of
feasibility report (FRO for appraisal and investment decision. A preliminary scrutiny of
the FR of the project is done in the Ministry and thereafter copies of the feasibility report
are submitted to the appraising agencies, viz., Planning Commission, Bureau of Public
Enterprises and the Plan Finance Division of the Ministry of Finance.
Thus the organizational responsibility for identifying these projects rests with the
concerned administrative ministry, in consultation with its public enterprises.
The essential steps for project identification and preparation relates to studying (i)
imports (ii) substitutes (iii) available and raw material (iv) available technology and skills
(v) inter-industry relationship (vi) existing industry (vii) development plans (viii) old
projects etc.

It may be mentioned that in actual practice, these steps are hardly scientifically
studied and followed by the administrative ministry public sector undertaking at the time
of project identification. The public sector projects many a time come spontaneously on
the basis of ideas and possibilities of demand or availability of some raw materials and not
an outcome of scientific investigation and systematic search for feasible projects.
PROJECT FORMULATION :
The second stage of "Project Cycle" viz. Project Formulation, is a pre-investment
exercise to determine whether to invest, where to invest, when to invest and how much to
invest.
The project/ feasibility reports are meant to provide required information for assessing
technical, financial, commercial, organization and economic viability of the project
planning in India, mainly because of relatively late realization of its importance. As a
result, the investment decisions for large projects in the past were taken on half-baked and
illconceived projects and time-over runs and cost-over runs of public sector projects have
become a regular feature rather than exception.
In early seventies along with the setting up of the Public Investment Board (PIB)
the Government created a new project Appraisal Division in the Planning Commission.
This Division prepared and circulated "Guidelines for preparing Feasibility Reports of
Industrial Projects" in 1974. This guidelines, unlike earlier manual, indicates all the
information and data required to be presented and analysed in the feasibility report, so as
to enable the appraisal agency to carry out (i) technical analysis - to determine whether the
specification of technical parameters are realistic, (ii) financial anaylsis - to determine
whether the proposal is financially viable, (iii) commercial analysis - to determine
soundness of the product specifications, marketing plans and organization structure and
(iv) economic analysis, to determine whether a project is worthwhile from the point of
view of nation and economy as a whole.
37

7/29/2019 PRINT Updated

The guidelines describes in details, the information required to be given and
analysed on the following issues : (a) general information of the sector, (b) objective of
the proposal, (c) alternative ways, if any of attaining the objectives and better suitability
of the proposed project,(d) project description - gestation period, costs, technology
proposed, anticipated life of the project etc., (e) demand analysis, total demand /
requirements of the country, including anticipated imports and exports and share of the
proposed project, (fl capital costs and norms assumed, activity wise and year wise, (g)
operating costs and norms, (h) revenue and benefits estimation etc.
PROJECT APPRAISAL :
The appraisal of the project follows the formulation stage. The objective of the
appraisal process is not only to decide whether to accept or reject the investment proposal,
but also to recommend the ways in which the project can be redesigned or reformulated so
as to ensure better technical, financial, commercial and economic viabilities.
The project appraised which is an essential tool for judicious investment decisions
and project selection is a multidisciplinary task. But many a times this is considered
doubt, have played an important role in contributing systematic methods for forecasting
the future and evolving appraisal methods to quantify socials costs and benefits, but they
alone can not carry out complete appraisal of an investment proposal.
The need for project appraisal and investment decisions based on social
profitability arises mainly because of the basic characteristics of developing countries
limited resources for development and multiple needs - objective of planning being
`Economic Growth with Social Justice'. The project appraisal is a convenient and
comprehensive fashion to achieve, the laid down objectives of the economic development
plan. The appraisal work presupposes availability of a certain minimum among of reliable
and up to date data in the country, as well as the availability of trained persons to carry out
the appraisal analysis.

As stated earlier the investment decision of public sector projects are required to
be taken within the approved plan frame work. The Project Appraisal Division (PAD) that
prepares the comprehensive appraisal note of projects of Central Plans was therefore set
up in Planning Commission. The Finance Ministry issues expenditure sanction for a11
investment proposals within the frame work of annual budget. The plan Finance Division
and the Bureau of Public Enterprises of the Finance Ministry are also required to examine
and give comments on the investment proposals of public.
Based on the above assumptions, the cost of generation could be worked out discounted
cash flow basis taking 12% IRR (Internal Rate of Return). This rate has been generally
accepted by various appraising agencies of the power projects.
Feasibility Report based on above methodology and indicating site selection, coal
linkage, power distribution examined by Central Electricity Authority in all cases where
investment is Rs.l Crore and above. Since NTPC is public sector undertaking, all the
investment decisions have to be formally sanctioned by Government after PIB's (Public
Investment Board's) clearance.
SHARE CAPITAL :
The entire share capital is owned by Government of India. During the Year no
addition has been made. However the authorized capital has been increased from Rs.
80,000 million to Rs.1,00,000 million and the face value or share has been split to Rs.10/-
each from Rs.1000/- each.

CAPITAL BUDGETING IN NTPC
All finance activity commences with an investment proposal, which calls for a financial
appraisal of a project. Here, capital Budgeting has its role. Each one of the projects is
appraised on following basis.
Cost Estimates.
Cost Generations.
Cost Estimates :
Feasibility Report of the project is prepared based on the cost of similar units
prevailing at the time of preparation of projects report of the latest costs are not available,
the same should be escalated. Collection of data with regard to the cost of the various
equipment should from part of a continuous planning so tat a realistic cost estimate is
made for the project Reports for civil works are generally based on NTPC schedule of
rates with reasonable premium there on.
Cost of Generation :
The financing of public sector company is generally based on Debt Equity of 3:1
the general rate of interest chargeable by the central Government on loan components is
10.5% ( Now enhanced to 11%) . The plant life as provided under the Electricity Supply
Act, 1948 is 25 years and depreciation based on this period has to be calculated on straight
line method, on 90% of the cost fixed assets. The operation & maintenance expenses are
generally of the order 2.5% of the capital cost.

ROLE OF FINANCE MANAGEMENT IN INVESTMENT DECISIONS IN
NTPC
Finance Manager is the number of a project team. He plays an important role in
investigation stage of the project, when various alternatives are analysed & the most
optimum solution is decided upon. The soundness upon the accuracy of the data & as a
finance manager has to questing and satisfy himself on the validity of the data.
The power projects are extremely capital intensive and before large resources are
committed to a scheme a detailed feasibility study need to be prepared covering The need
of the project The demand projections The alternatives of the site locations The broad
parameters of the plant and equipment The cost estimates The viability of the scheme.
Cost Estimates :-
Cost estimates and financial justification and returns of the projects are the areas
where financial management has to play its role. Cost estimates should be prepared by the
cost engineers and vetted by the finance manager. Cost engineering is a specialized filed
& need to be developed in the contest of power projects because of insufficient cost data
on the components of the projects.
This raises an important question of the present methodology of preparing the cost
estimates without any provision for price contingencies. Because of time lag between
preparation of cost estimates and investment decisions, after its scrutiny by the
appraising agencies, these estimates are already out of data and hence would need
updating.

CONCLUSIONS
From the study of project cost estimates it has been noticed that the originally
sanctioned amount had been incurred obtaining cabinet approval with the
result the cabinet faced with a fast accomplishment.
It is aware that several projects taken up 6-7 years ago, now about to complete has
been affected considerably by inflation in the wake of the west Asia war & the
increase in oil prices.
Due to technical difficulties many of the project have taken a long time for
Commissioning resulting in considerable cost overseas.
During the examination of same of the revised cost estimates, PIB had occasion of
note that the FRs. Originally prepared were often inadequate
The cost of same of the project has gone up by 100 or more
The administrative ministries monitoring the progress of these projects were
Aware of the increased costs but in most cases no action was taken to seek revised
sanction.
There is an imperative need for enforcing greater financial discipline.

SUGGESTIONS
1. The moment the project authorities became aware of the increased casts, it is
Necessary to draw up a revised approval of the cabinet.
2. It is essential administrative ministries make full use of the existing institutions &
devote greater attention in the preparation of adequate feasibility report.
3. If detailed project report is prepared with in a reasonable time, it should be
Possible for the authorities to ascertain the cost of project
4. There should be a system of continues monitoring & close self-liason.
5. It is essential to tighten up the existing procedures 8v take a serious view of cases
when the project authorities do not came up for sanction of revised cost estimates
even when they are aware of the cost exceeding the sanction.
6. In the light of above, there should be a review of the progress in regard the
preparation of project * initiate action urgently to finalized them bring them before
competent authority as required.
