PROBLEM
Company wants to increase its profitability. To extend the profit company has two options one is to buy new equipment , other is to replace the old equipment . To fulfill both options company has to take loan from outside.Now the problem is that , from where company should take loan for witch company has to pay less rate of interest.
Q :- What is the minimum amount of saving from the replacement that would justify the expenditure ? Ans :- S=50000000 ,N=10 ,I =0.14,R=? S=R[(1+i)n-1] =50000000=R[(1+0.14)10-1] I 0.14
Let X=(1.14)10 ,then logX=10log1.14=0.569 X=antilog0.569 =3.707 50000000= R(3.707-1) 0.14
Qg :-What is the annual installment of the SBI loan AnS :S=200000000,n=10,i=0.14,R=? S= R[(1+i)n-1] ,200000000=R[(1+0.14)10-1] I 0.14 Let X=(1.14)10, logX=10log1.14=0.569 X=antilog0.569=3.707 200000000=R[3.707-1] 0.14 R=10343554
Q :- Calculate the quarterly installment of the financial institution loan ? Ans :-S=200000000, n=40,i=0.0337,R=? S=R[(1+i)n-1], , S=R[(1+o.o337)40-1] I 0.0337 LetX=(1+0.0337)40,logX=40log0.0337=2.1104 X=antilog2.1104=1.289 200000000= R[1.289-1], R= 200000000(.337) 0.o337 0.289 R=23321799
Q :- Should the company borrow from the SBI or the financial institution ?
Ans :-The company should borrow from
Financial institution because in the financial institution, company has to pay quarterly interest and due to the payment it has to pay less interest and the interest rate is also low from SBI.
Q :- Would you recommend borrowing from the financial institution or get the equipment on lease ? Ans :-As per the case ,we will recommend borrowing from financial institution; because the annual lease rent is 52million which is very high value it’ll be better to borrow from financial institution. In the case if company borrow then it has to pay less interest & less amount as compare to take it on lease.
CONCLUSION
The conclusion is that if the company wants to extend its profit it has to take loan from outside to buy new equipment or to replace the equipment. If the company decide to buy new equipment then it should take loan from the financial institution. It will be beneficial for the company.
