Q2 “M/s Arham Industrial Goods” is a famous name for Boiler design and manufacturing and
their model (MN-1) holds good market share at selling price of Rs. 100,000. The cost of
manufacturing N-1 is Rs.70, 000 and useful economic life is 5 years with total maintenance cost
of Rs. 40,000 in 5 years.

Transportation cost of MN-1 is approximately Rs.50, 000. The installation and setup cost is
around Rs. 20,000 and machine is disposed at the end of 5 years at a 50% of initial purchase
price. “Rahina Technicals”, a close rival, has come up with an advanced version (BL-1).

The cost of manufacturing BL-1 is Rs. 50,000 and because of its reduced size and weight,
transportation cost is reduced to one half as compared to MN-1. Due to ease of operation and
modern design, the Installation and setup of BL-1 is free of charge.

Useful economic life of BL-1 is same as that of MN-1 however BL-1 is sold as scrap at
negligible value after 5 years due to parts worn out. BL-1 requires relatively less maintenance so
total maintenance cost estimates around Rs 25,000 in 5 years. Fuel cost and output for both
models are equal.

i. What is Total Value Creation with BL-1.
