Modern Enterprises Ltd is considering the purchase of a new computer system for its Research and Development Division, which would cost Rs 35 lakh. The operation and maintenance costs (excluding depreciation) are expected to be Rs 7 lakh per annum. It is estimated that the useful life of the system would be 6 years, at the end of which the disposal value is expected to be Rs 1 lakh. The tangible benefits expected from the system in the form of reduction in design and draftmanship costs would be Rs 12 lakh per annum. The disposal of used drawing office equipment and furniture initially is anticipated to net Rs 9 lakh. As capital expenditure in research and development, the proposal would attract 100 per cent write-off for tax purposes. The gains arising from disposal of used assets may be considered tax free. The effective tax rate is 35 per cent. The average cost of capital of the company is 12 per cent. After appropriate analysis of cash flows, advise the company of the financial viability of the proposal.
