Various cost indices, William’s sixth tenth rule, methods of estimation of fixed capital, product cost estimation, Financing, Interest and investment cost, present worth and discount annuities, Source of capital, Depreciation, Taxes and Insurances, Balance Sheets, Perpetuity, Inflation.

UNIT V      
 PROFITABILITY: ALTERNATIVE INVESTMENTS AND REPLACEMENTS                                                                                                     Alternative investments and replacements, profitability standards, discounted cash flow, rate of return, capitalized cost, payment period, alternative investments, analysis with small investments, increments and replacements, Break Even Analysis.

OUTCOME: Students gain the knowledge on cost and asset accounting, time value of money, profitability, alternative investments, minimum attractive rate of return, sensitivity and risk analysis.
