COST OF PROJECT
Cost of Project represents the total of all items of outlay associated with a project which are supported by long-term funds. It is the sum of the outlays on:

Margin Money for Working Capital The principal support of working capital is provided by commercial banks and trade creditors. A certain part of the working capital requirement has to come from long-term sources of finance. It is referred to as the margin money for working capital.
11
Initial Cash Losses Most of the projects incur cash losses in the initial years. Promoters typically do not disclose the initial cash losses. A provision should be made for the estimated initial cash losses in the project cost. Failure to do so affects the liquidity position and impairs the operations.

BREAK-EVEN ANALYSIS
Break-even analysis determines how much should be sold to ensure that the project does not lose money Sales revenues and total costs are analysed for each different level of production
15
BREAK-EVEN POINT
Minimum quantity at which loss is avoided Point where total revenue equals to total costs TR = TC No profit, no loss situation
16
Fixed costs- Costs that do not change in response to changes in sales volume. executive salaries lease payments depreciation
Variable costs- Costs that change in response to changes in sales volume. hourly wages raw materials cost

= Fixed Costs______________________ Selling price per unit Variable Cost per unit

CONTRIBUTION MARGIN
The contribution margin is the amount of money that is available from the sale of each unit to cover the fixed costs of the firm. Once those fixed costs are covered, any further units that are sold will result in profit.
Contribution Margin=Selling Price-Variable Cost

EXAMPLE
A teddy bear manufacturing company sells its bears to retailers for an average price of Rs.180. The variable costs are Rs.30 per bear. The companys fixed costs are Rs.1,50,000. To calculate the break-even point, we first need to find the contribution margin: Contribution Margin =Selling Price Variable Costs =Rs.180 Rs.30 =Rs.150 We can now calculate the break-even point: BEP = Fixed Costs Contribution Margin = Rs.150,000 Rs.150 = 1,000 bears
