PREFACE
In today’s era of globalization and competition, coping up with technological advancement, which is
undergoing evolution at a very fast rate, holds the key to the survival and growth of any organization.
Installing technology, well-equipped facilities or going for modification in the existing ones are the means
to attain better performance efficiency and hence further the value addition.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
IOCL is the country’s largest commercial enterprise with a sales turnover of Rs. 88725.36 crores and
profits of Rs.7485.55 crores for fiscal year 2007-08. As premier National Oil Company, Indian oil’s
endeavor is to serve the national economy and people of India and fulfill its vision of becoming “an
integrated, diversified and transnational energy major”
With the global competition to maintain strategic edge in the market place, Indian oil has given
importance for capital budgeting because capital investment decisions often represent the most important
decisions taken by an organization, and they are extremely important, they sometimes also pose
difficulties. In the given sample project the process by which company studies the different aspects of
proposal, and decides about feasibility and viability of the project. Here we can see the different phases,
process of analysis, etc of capital budgeting.
An important step in raising capital is estimating the capital requirements. Some of the capital raised will
likely be used to increase working capital. Capital budgeting is the process of identifying and ranking
which of these capital investments add the most value to the business. Capital budgeting decisions are not
unlike the personal budgeting decisions we make everyday. Consider these common features
CONSTRAINT
The amount of capital one can raise is limited, imposing a constraint on the choices. As one
increases the firm’s debt, its debt equity ratio and debt-servicing requirement increase, making it
harder to raise additional debt.
PROJECT RANKING
How one chooses to allocate the investment capital raised depends on the set of
investment opportunities. Project ranking is a means of allocating the investment capital to those
projects that contribute the most value to the business.

MEASUREMENT
There is variety of methods available for measuring the firms return on an investment
project. Three major methods useful in measuring a project value are the pay back, net present value,
and IRR methods
METHODS ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
PAY BACK Simplest method to use Ignores subsequent cash
outflows
IRR Ranks projects by rate of
return. Can compare to hurdle
rate to make accept – reject
decision.
Projects can have more than
one IRR. Need to measure
your hurdle rate.
NET PRESENT VALUE Ranks projects by net present
value.
Negligible.
Hurdle rate is an important part of using either the IRR or NPV method. The hurdle rate is the most
appropriate interest rate to use when evaluating investments. Often times, the hurdle rate is the
opportunity cost of investment capital, the rate of return that can be earned on the next best alternative
investment.

MATHURA REFINERY
“Blending Technology with Ecology”
Mathura Refinery also know as “The Modern Temple”, was commissioned in 1982 as the sixth Indian oil
Refinery. Nestled between the historic cities of Delhi & Agra. The Mathura refinery was commissioned
with an original capacity of 6.0 MMTPA. The capacity was increased to 7.5 MMTPA by debottlenecking
and revamping. With its fluid catalytic cracking units, the refinery mainly produces middle distillates and
supplies them to Northern India though a product pipeline to Jalandhar, Punjab via Delhi. The company
commissioned a two-stage desalted in 1998 for improving the on-stream availability of the crude
distillation unit and a CCRU for production of unleaded Motor Spirit. A DHDS Unit was commissioned
in 1999 for production of HSD with low Sulphur content of 0.25% wt (max). A hydro-cracker for
increasing middle distillates was also completed in 2000. The present capacity of the refinery is 8
MMTPA.
In order to meet future fuel requirements, facilities for improvement in quality of MS & HSD are under
installation and planned to be completed by 2005.
ENVIRONMENT
Mathura Refinery becoming the first refinery in Asia and third in the World whose environment
management system has been certified for ISO 14001/ Marching ahead on the growth path, refinery is
implementing Eco-friendly projects like catalytic reforming unit, hydro cracking unit and diesel hydro-
sulphurisation unit. These units will not only help in producing cleaner fuels but that also result on
substantial reduction in refinery emulsions to a level of 200 kg/hr.
In addition to this commitment towards preserving ecological balance and national heritage has always
been the top of the agenda for the refinery. Ecological park and mini bird sanctuary frequented by 70
species of birds are a living testimony of harmony of refinery operations with ecology apart from the
management techniques adopted for human resources, strategic planning, quality assurance. The major
work has been done in the area of ecology preservation particularly for TajMahal.

Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery PROJECT ON ASSET ACCOUNTING
Meaning of asset accounting
Asset accounting encompasses the entire lifetime of the asset from purchase order or the initial
acquisition (possibly managed as an asset under construction) through its retirement. The system
calculates, to a large extent automatically, the values for depreciation, interest, insurance and other
purposes between these two points in time, and places this information at your disposal in varied form
using the Information System. There is a report for depreciation forecasting and simulation of the
development of asset values.
POLICY OF IOCL REGARDING TO THE FIXED ASSET
FIXED ASSETS
1. Land
Land acquired on perpetual lease as well as on lease for over 99 years is treated as free hold land.
Land acquired on lease for 99 years or less is treated as leasehold land.
2. Construction Period Expenses on Projects
Revenue expenses exclusively attributable to projects incurred during construction period are
capitalized. However, such expenses in respect of capital facilities being executed along with the
production/operations simultaneously are charged to revenue.
Financing cost incurred during the construction period on loans specifically borrowed and utilized
for projects is capitalized on quarterly basis up to the date of capitalization.
Financing cost, if any, incurred on General Borrowings used for projects is capitalized at the
weighted average cost.
The amount of such borrowings is determined on quarterly basis after setting off the amount of
internal accruals.
SCHEDULE
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”28
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
Depreciation/Amortisation
Cost of lease hold land for 99 years or less is amortized during the lease period.
Depreciation on fixed assets including LPG Cylinders and Pressure Regulators is provided in
accordance with the rates as specified in Schedule XIV to The Companies Act, 1956, on straight
line method, upto95% of the cost of the asset other than Insurance spares which are depreciated up
to 100%. Depreciations charged pro-rata on quarterly basis on assets, from/up to the quarter of
capitalization/sale, disposal and dismantled during the year.
Assets, other than LPG Cylinders and Pressure Regulators, costing up to Rs. 5,000/- per item are
depreciated fully in the year of capitalization.
Capital expenditure on items like electricity transmission lines, railway siding, roads, culverts etc.
the ownership of which is not with the Corporation are charged off to revenue. Such expenditure
incurred during construction period of projects is accounted as unallocated capital expenditure and
is charged to revenue in the year of capitalization of such projects.
CONCEPT OF ASSET ACCOUNTING
Concept of asset accounting can be understand from the following -----
1-For all items of fixed assets such as buildings, plant & machinery, furniture & fixtures etc. asset register
shall be maintained by the Finance Department for complying the various accounting provisions under
the Companies Act and the Income Tax Act.
2- Adequate depreciation on the cost of fixed assets shall be charged to the Profit & Loss Account before
ascertaining the profit. The acquisition cost of assets should include all expenses for bringing the asset
into existence. Such cost, therefore, includes purchase cost, erection cost, supervision cost etc. incurred
up to the stage the asset is ready for commissioning
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”29
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery 3- The Companies Act prescribes the minimum quantum of depreciation which should be charged to the
profits of limited company before such profits are distributed as dividend, Keeping in view the statutory
requirements and the effective life of the assets, the Board of Directors have prescribed the rates of
depreciation for various categories of assets on straight-line method.
4-The rates of depreciation admissible under the Income Tax Act are based on written-down value

INTRODUCTION OF CAPITAL BUDGETING
The basic characteristic of a capital expenditure is that it generally involves the current outlay or near
future outlay of funds expected to yield a flow of benefits in future. The benefits may be monetary or
non-monetary. A capital expenditure, from the accounting view point, is an expenditure, which is shown
as an asset in the balance sheet. This asset, except in case of non –depreciable asset like land, is
depreciated over its life.
“CAPITAL BUDGETING IS THE PROCESS BY WHICH FIRM DECIDES WHICH LONG
TERM INVESTMENT TO MAKE.” The decision to accept or reject a capital budgeting project
depends on an analysis of the cash flows generated by the project and its cost. Due to capital budgeting
one can know about the risk and return of the project also the viability and feasibility of the project by
doing different analysis. So in today’s world for any company capital budgeting becomes necessary,
because of long-term effects, irreversibility of the investment, substantial outlays, uncertainty about
future, etc.
In this large commercial organization we could get kind support of every person of finance department
and got experience of making capital investment decisions. We have tried to put here by this project that
how this company decides on investments, how the capital budgeting process can be done and what are
the important aspects of capital budgeting that should be considered in depth and for that what type of
analysis is done. So we have also put here one sample proposal or project, to give an idea about how
different analysis can be done, making decision and how an investment proposal translates into a concrete
project.
IMPORTANCE
Capital expenditure decision often represents the most important decisions taken by an organization.
Their importance stems from 3 inter related reasons.
1) Long term effects - The consequences of capital expenditure decisions extend far into the future.
Current capital expenditure decisions provided the framework for future activities.
2) Irreversibility - A wrong capital investment decision often cannot be reversed without incurring
substantial loss.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”59
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery 3) Substantial outlay - Capital expenditures usually involves substantial outlays.
DIFFICULTIES
While capital expenditure decision is extremely important, they also pose difficulties. These difficulties
stem from 3 principle sources given below:
1) Measurement problems - Measuring the costs and benefits of a capital expenditure proposal is
difficult, particularly when they are somewhat intangible in nature.
2) Uncertainty - The benefits of capital expenditure decision occur in the future. The future is
characterized by uncertainty. Hence analysis of capital expenditure proposal is difficult.
3) Temporal spread - The costs and benefits relating to capital expenditure proposal occur at
different points of time. A rupee received now is not the same as received a year hence.
CAPITAL BUDGETING
“Capital Budgeting is the process by which the firm decides which long-term investments to make.”
Capital budgeting projects, i.e., potential long-term investments, are expected to generate cash flows over
several years. The decision to accept or reject a Capital Budgeting project depends on an analysis of the
cash flows generated by the project and its cost. The following four capital budgeting decision rules or
tools are considered for measuring financial feasibility of project:
Payback period
Average Rate of Return (ARR)
Net Present Value (NPV)Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”60
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery Internal Rate of Return (IRR)
A Capital Budgeting decision rule should satisfy the following criteria:
Must consider all of the project’s cash flow.
Must consider the Time Value of Money.
Must always lead to the correct decision when choosing among Mutually Exclusive Projects.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”61
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery PHASES OF CAPITAL BUDGETING:
Capital budgeting is a complex process, which may be divided into the following phases:
1. The capital budgeting process begins with the identification of potential investment opportunities.
The planning body develops estimates of future sales that serve as the basis for setting production
targets which in turn, is helpful in identifying required investment in plant and equipment.
2. A system of rupee gateways usually characterizes capital investment decision-making. Under this
system executives are vested with the power to okay investment proposals up to certain limits.
3. Before undertaking projects involving larger outlays are usually required an appropriation orders.
The purpose of this check is mainly to ensure that the funds position of the firm is satisfactory at
the time of implementation.
4. Translating an investment proposal to a concrete project is a complex, time-consuming, and risk-
fraught task. Delays in implementation, which common, can lead to substantial cost overruns for
that the following are helpful. (1) Adequate Formulation of Projects, (2) Use of the principal for
responsibility Accounting, (3) Use of Network techniques.
5. Performance review is a means for comparing actual performance with projected performance. It
is useful in several ways; (1) it throws light on how realistic were the assumptions underlying the
project. (2) It provides a documented log of experience that is highly valuable for decision
making. (3) It helps in uncovering judgmental biases. (4) It includes a desired caution among the
project sponsors.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”62
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery PROJECT DEVELOPMENT CYCLE:
The development cycle consists of three broad phases:
1. Pre investment phase which consists of several stage of identification of investment opportunity,
preliminary analysis, feasibility study, and decision-making.
2. Implementation phase involves setting up of manufacturing facilities, consists of several stages
(1) project and engineering design, (2) negotiation and contracting,(3) construction, (4) training ,
(5) plant and commissioning.
3. Operational phase is the longest phase in terms of time span begins with the project
commissioned and ends with the project wound up.
Aspects of Appraisal :
Broadly four types of appraisal may be conducted while evaluating an investment proposal:
(1) Market appraisal requires a wide variety of information and appropriate forecasting methods.
(2) Technical appraisal needs to determine with respect to location, size, process, etc.
(3) Financial appraisal seek to ascertain whether the project will be financially viable or not with respect
to servicing debt and return expectations.
(4) Economic appraisal concerned with judging a project with respect to social cost and benefits
of project to the firm in non-monetary terms.
Basic considerations are Risk and Return factors of financial analysis. Higher the return, ceteris paribus,
higher the market value, higher the risk, ceteris pair bus, lowers the market value. In financial analysis the
trade-off between risk and return needs to be carefully analyzed.
Market and Technical Appraisal:
Before a detailed study of a project is undertaken, it is necessary to know, the types of information
regarding size of market because viability of the project depends upon the level of sales exceeds a certain
volume. The information for this purpose can be gathered from past record of demand and present,
breakdown of demand, price statistics, methods of distribution, and government policy by primary
sources and secondary sources.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”63
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery Technical analysis is concerned primarily with materials and inputs, production technology, plant
capacity, location and site, machinery and equipment, structures and civil works, projects charts and
layouts and work schedule. An important aspect of technical analysis is concerned with defining the
materials and inputs require to proximity to raw materials and markets, availability of infrastructure
facilities and other factors.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”64
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
FINANCIAL ESTIMATES AND PROJECTIONS:
Costs and benefits from the financial angle:
In defining the costs and benefits of a capital expenditure proposal from financial angle the following
principles must be borne in mind: cash flow principle, post-tax principle, incremental principle. Cash flow
associated with a project may be divided into three parts: initial flow, operational flows, and terminal
flows. When a project is viewed from the total funds points of view, the net cash flow operation and
winding up is the cash flow left after meeting all expenses.
Time value of money :
Money has time value. A rupee today is more valuable than a rupee a year hence. There are different
aspects of equations by which we can calculate the future value of money they are Annuity, Differed
annuity, Perpetuity, Annuity due, present value etc.
Appraisal criteria:
There are two broad categories of appraisal criteria: non-discounting and discounting criteria. The non-
discounting criteria are: urgency, payback period, accounting rate of return, an debt service coverage
ratio, while discounting criteria are: net present value; benefit cost ratio, internal rate of return and capital
charge.
According to the urgency criteria, projects, which are deemed to be more urgent, get priority over project,
which are regarded as less urgent. The payback period represents the amount of time that it takes for a
capital budgeting project to recover its initial cost. The use of payback period specifies that all
independent projects with a pay back period less than a specified number of years should be accepted.
The Internal Rate of Return of a capital budgeting project is the discount rate at which the Net Present
Value of a project equals zero. Projects with an IRR greater than the cost of capital should be accepted.
Average rate of return is a measure of profitability, which relates income to investment, so a project is
deemed to accept if ARR exceeds a certain cut off rate of return, the net present value of a project is equal
to the sum of the present value of all the cash flows associated with the project. A wide variety of
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”65
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery measures are used in practice for appraising investment but most commonly used method for small size
investment is payback period and for large investment ARR and discounted cash flow methods.
Cost of capital :
The firms cost of capital is the discount rate, which should be used in capital budgeting, the cost of capital
reflects the firm’s cost of obtaining capital to invest in long term assets. Thus it reflects a weighted
average of the firm’s cost of debt, cost of preferred stock and cost of common stock.
Risk analysis:
Risk analysis of capital investment is one of the most complex controversial and slippery areas in finance,
risk refers to variability, several measures of variability have been used to denote risk like Mean,
Standard Deviation, Coefficient of variation etc, the methods of risk analysis commonly used in practice
are: (1) conservative estimation of revenues, (2) safety margin in cost figures, (3) flexible investment
yardsticks, (4) acceptable overall certainty index. The analysis of risk factor in practice can be improved
if the profitability distribution of the key factors underlying an investment project is developed and
information is communicated in this form.

CAPITAL BUDGETING PRINCIPLES AND PRACTICES IN IOCL
( Guidelines as issued by HO - IOCL)
TYPES OF PLANS/ BUDGET:
The corporate objective, as approved by the board of Directors, forms the basis of long term/ short-term
budgets so as to obtain the desired objectives.
LONG TERM PLAN
PERSPECTIVE PLANS
Perspective plans covers duration of 10 to 15 years. This plan sets the long term goals to be
attained by the corporation in line with the corporate objectives. The corporate objectives are
further divided into divisional goals and unit goals. The purpose of perspective goals is to achieve
efficiency and supremacy in the existing operations and also to diversify into other areas of
operations as may be possible taking into account the opportunities thrown by the environment.
The perspective plan is updated once in 2 years so that at any point of time, perspective for a
period of 10 to 15 years is available. The corporate planning department based on the inputs
received by the divisions prepares the perspective plan.
LONG RANGE PLAN
Long range plan covers duration of 5 years. Long range planning is aimed to achieve the broad
objectives envisaged in the perspective plan by fixing specific targets and action plans for various
functions. The long range planning department at all units and HO coordinates the long-range plan
and the same is updated every year so as to have a detailed plan for 5 years at any point of time.
The targets set in the long-range plan are reviewed periodically at units/ HO with reference to
actual performance.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”67
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
SHORT TERM PLANS
In the short term the corporation prepares revenue and capital budgets indicating the revised estimates for
the current year and the budget estimate for the next year. These budgets are more detailed and indicate
the expected physical/ financial performance of operations and projects for close monitoring and control.
In addition to these budgets, the purchase budget, the working capital/ cash budget are also prepared to
know the position of availability of internal resources for financing projects and for further funds
management in case of surplus/ deficit. The foreign exchange budget is also prepared for submission to
the government our requirements of foreign exchange.

CAPITAL BUDGETING AT IOCL
The capital budget is a plan of expenditure over a period of time on a chosen set of projects, which results
in acquisition of assets to the corporation and helps in generating income over a period of years in future.
Such projects are expected to generate income and improve efficiency over a period of time in future.
The capital budget plays a very vital role for the growth and financial health of any organization. it is
necessary to continuously update the technology, removal of operational bottlenecks, and improvement in
efficiency and productivity, enhancement of capacities , fulfillment of social objectives, etc..
The quality of investment and success of project in regard to its fulfillment of objectives, depend largely
on the quality and content of the proposals seeking approval for capital investment. Further, the proposal
seeking approval of the board are emanating from the different departments of the units. It may be
possible that these different departments are making different, even conflicting assumptions and
exercising different degrees of care while formulating capital budgeting proposals. In view of above it is
imperative that a central group at the corporate office subjects capital investment decision seeking
approval of the board to an overall, impartial and scientific appraisal. The primary function of this group
is to apprais e all capital investment proposals seeking approval of the board.
The foremost issue that need to be described in the capital budgeting process pertains to identification of
basic objective or need which is sought to be fulfilled by implementation of proposed project. The
proposal shall present the complete prospective, rational and background of need for project.
The need for the project may be broadly justified on account of:
Technical / operational necessity
Improvement in existing operations through removal of constrains/ updating of technology.
Capacity enhancement due to demand and supply imbalances.
Investment on account of government/ strategic policy decisions
Investment on account of marketing considerations.
Safety/environmental and statutory requirements.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”69
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery The financial analysis in capital budgeting is a vital for accessing the viability of each non plans
scheme ( encompassing wide spectrum of activities covering safety, statutory requirements
technology up gradation etc.) and hence provides valuable information to the top management.
Financial analysis produces an estimate for the financial gains, which will accrue to the corporation
after the implementation of scheme. The financial analysis entails determination of year wise cash
flows of the project, computation of internal rate of return (IRR), each scheme is financially
evaluated.
The budgeting in Mathura Refinery follows the Zero Base Budgeting (ZBB) concept in which each
requirement is required to be justified after evaluating al the possible alternatives and ranking them in
order of importance by systematic analysis. The allocation of funds is not to be on the basis of the
same activity being carried in the past. In this process, the objectives are to be established with
alternative ways of achieving these objectives and carrying out the cost benefit analysis and
ascertaining the consequences of disapproval.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”70
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery CLASSIFICATION OF CAPITAL BUDGET
In IOCL, Mathura Refinery capital budget is classified in 2 categories:
Plan schemes
Non- plan schemes viz. Additional Facilities (AF)
PLAN SCHEMES:
Plan schemes are those schemes which are required to be included in the annual plan documents for
submission to Government / Planning Commission for approvals. These schemes ultimately form part of
the government’s annual plan. they are important from national point of view and involve substantial
expenditure, generally above 100 crores on items relating to capacity improvement of primary or
secondary units. While non-plan schemes generally cover capital investments on additional facilities like
buildings, off site, utilities, furniture, vehicles, etc.
They are generally developed in line with action plan drawn on Long Range Plan (5 years) / Perspective
plan (10-15 years) of the corporation. No expenditure on plan schemes is incurred unless the scheme is
included in the approved annual plan document with a budget allocation for the year and also the scheme
is approved by competent authority as per the delegation of powers. The annual plan is required to be
submitted to the Government by mid September every year.
It is essential that the revised outlay for the current year and the outlay required for the next year are
assessed realistically in order to ensure that the total actual expenditure would be close to the proposed
outlay.
NON- PLAN SCHEMES (AF):
The AF schemes encompasses wide spectrum of activities covering safety, statutory requirements,
technology up gradation, welfare, replacements/addition of assets, operational necessities, etc.
Individually AF schemes may be lower cost, collectively they may account for significant portion of the
total capital expenditure. Therefore the handling of AF schemes with regard to their selection, accurate
cost estimates and timely completion assumes a great significance. The schemes need to be judiciously
implemented after detailed study of various alternatives available.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”71
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
PROCEDURE FOR APPROVAL OF AF (ADDITONAL FACILITES) SCHEMES
All AF proposals shall be initiated and prepared by units in the ZBB decision-making package. The AF
proposals are required to be forwarded to Secretary, Investment Review Committee, and HO for approval
only after obtaining concurrence of the local finance and endorsed by the Unit Head.
The proposals forwarded to HO for approval shall cover full details and justifications. HO would
examine the proposal and obtain the approval of the competent authority. On approval, necessary
provision will be made in the AF budget.
PREPARATION OF AF PROPOSALS
The units as per the prescribed format shall submit the AF proposals. While this is the minimum
requirement for submission of an AF proposal, additional/ supplementary date/ information needs to be
added as required for a better appreciation and evaluation of the proposal.
AF proposal shall contain the following information:
Name, objective and purpose
Background/ origin of the proposal
Generation/ evaluation of alternatives
Description of activities
Benefits / saving from the proposal
Project cost estimates
Completion schedule
Economics
NAME, OBJECTIVE AND PURPOSE
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”72
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
The name of the proposal should be brief but reflect the contents. The objective and purpose of the
proposal shall be stated clearly and unambiguously and it should be ensured that the same are specific and
not general nature.
BACKGROUND / ORIGIN OF THE PROPOSAL
Following points are of importance.
The circumstances leading to the preparation of the proposals should be explained in detail. In
case the proposal is prepared in pursuance of the recommendations of a committee, working
group, statutory bodies, ministry etc., the mere mention of this does not constitute the background
for propelling the case. The case must be presented in perspective, explaining briefly the rationale
behind particular recommendations. Full documentary evidence must be presented in support
wherever applicable.
In many cases, AF proposal are initiated to improve an existing operation by removing
constraints, updating technology, replacement/ addition of equipments, process modifications,
extension of an existing facility to new areas etc. in all these cases, it is of prime importance that
the proposal includes a brief description of existing facilities/ operations . The constraints/
limitations experienced with the existing facilities must be discussed and efforts made in the past
to overcome these problems etc. should be sufficiently elaborated. Brief description of operation
of facilities in past vis-à-vis the need for proposed modification would help to appreciate the
problem.
GENERATION / EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES
Once the objective of the proposal is firmed and the evaluation of the existing facilities have been
completed the next logical step is the generation of alternatives or options available for achieving the
desired objectives.
The following 2 points are of importance in this regard:
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”73
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery All possible alternatives should be explored and listed. This may involve different level of efforts
and cost or different ways of performing the same functions, activity or operation.
Evaluation of alternatives must also be carried out in systematic manner. While there cannot be a
uniform approach for evaluation of alternatives, some of factors to be considered are: cost-benefit
analysis, repercussion on other units/ operation, time schedule, availability of resources, down
time requirements in case of plant modifications, long – term implications, conforming to
corporate policies, legal and other statutory requirements, etc. in any case, the proposal should
clearly indicate the criteria and considerations that led to the selection of the recommended
alternative.
DESCRIPTION OF ACTIVITIES
Once the evaluation of alternatives and selection of the optimum scheme is completed the proposal should
be developed with sufficient detailing.
Some of the major considerations/ requirements at this stage are listed below:
BENEFITS /SAVING FROM THE PROPOSALS
The importance ability of the proposed scheme must be fully explored with reference to area
requirements vis-à-vis availability, extent of enabling jobs required, execution feasibility (impact
on running units, safety precautions needed, etc.), shut down requirements, utility requirements/
availability, hook up jobs, etc. these must also be documented as part of the proposal.
Efforts must be made to identify and examine the utility of redundant/-unutilized materials
available in the plant. This would help in cutting down cost and time besides ensuring the use of
idle equipment.
The proposal should include only those activities/ facilities need for meeting the objective. Each
element/ activity included in the proposal must be backed by adequate justification for its
inclusion. It is always better not to include an entirely unrelated activity/ facility in a proposal but
rather make a separate proposal with justification, etc. for the same.
In case the proposal envisages the introduction of new technology/ process/ equipments, it is
desirable to gather reliable information on the performance of similar process/ equipment
elsewhere within the country or outside, instead of relying entirely on the vendor’s claims.
Topic : “Assets Accounting & Capital Budgeting at IOCL”74
Indian oil corporation Ltd. – Mathura Refinery
An assessment of the additional manpower requirements for operating the proposed facility should
be made and included as a part of the proposal.
The methodology or execution of the project should be finalized at the proposal stages itself. In
case it is felt necessary to engage a consultant, adequate justification for the same, job scope for
consultant etc. must be clearly mentioned in the proposal.
PROJECT COST ESTIMATES
Need for realistic cost estimates
The importance of making an accurate cost estimate4 cannot be over stressed. It will have a direct
bearing on the economic viability of the scheme. While over-estimation may cause blockage of
funds which otherwise could be utilized profitability for some other purpose, under estimation
would necessitate repeated approvals for cost overruns and may also affect the project completion
schedules.
Basis
It is essential that the basis adopted for cost estimation of all major components be included.

CAPITAL BUDGETING FOR SETTING UP OF FACILITIES FOR
PRODUCTION OF METHYL-TERTIARY-BUTYLETHER (MTBE) AT
MATHURA REFINERY
INTRODUCTION:
LPG produced from FCC unit at Mathura Refinery is presently supplied to IPCL. After recovering the
Propylene potential from it. IPCL return back the balance streams comprising of Propane and C4
components. C4 components consist of Isobutylene, Butane 1 & 2, Isobutene and N-butane. These
components are valuable feed stocks for various downstream petrochemicals and separation / conversion
of the same would result in high diversification, it is envisaged to produce Methyle-Tertinery-Buty1 Ether
(MTBE) from C4 components by etherification of Isobutylene content present in the C4 stream. This will
not only result in value –addition but also enable Mathura Refinery to meet the future stringent
specification of Motor Spirit (MS) in respect of Anti Knock Index and Vapor Lock Index.
With the operating capability of FCC unit to about 1.25 MMTPA against the design capacity of 1.0
MMTPA, the potential of Isobutylene present in LPG of FCC unit is around 14-15,000 TPA. The
potential can further be increased to about 18-19,000 TPA by up gradation of existing catalyst with
suitable high activity catalyst higher amount of lighter products. MTBE that can be generated from the
above Isobutylene is estimated to be further enhanced to a level of about 37,000 TPA with the revamp of
FCC unit to 1.5 MMTPA planned along with new 3.0 MMTPA. Crude Distillation Unit (stage-II approval
of revamp, potential of FCC revamp give by M/s UOP.
In view of the above it is considered to put up a MTBE plant to utilize potential Isobutylene to produce
around 27,000 TPA of MTBE. A cushion of 25% is being dept in the design to take care of additional
7,000 TPA Isobutylene to produce around 27,000 TPA of MTBE. A cushion of 25% is being dept in the
design to take care of additional 7,000 TPA Isobutylene that would be available after FCC revamp
increasing the MTBE production to a level of 37,000 TPA.

Need:
It is clear from the above that Mathura Refinery will not be in a position to meet revised MS
Specifications with the existing facilities. Therefore, there is a need to provide facilities for achieving
revised MS Specification at Mathura Refinery.
Analysis of Alternatives
Project Authorities have analyzed following alternatives for generating high octane MS component :
Alternative 1 : Reformer for generating high octane reformate
Alternative 2 : Alkylation Unit for Generating high octane Alkyl ate.
Alternative 3 : Isomerisation Unit for generating high octane Isomer ate.
Alternative 4 : MTBE Unit for generating high octane MTBE.
Alternative 1 was rejected on the problem on high Benzene content and high investment cost.
Alternative 2 was rejected due to the use of Hydrofluoric Acid (HF) as Catalyst which is not eco-friendly
and due to high investment cost.
Alternative 3 was rejected due to very low capacity of the plant (63 TMTPA against minimum economic
size of 150 TMTPA)

RECOMMENDATIONS:
In the proposed Project the process by which I study the different aspects of proposal, and decides about
feasibility and viability of the project, represents that payback, net presents value, and IRR are the
methods available for measuring the firm’s return on an investment project.
Payback Period is 4.1 years, which represents the amount of time that is takes for a Capital Budgeting
project to recover its initial cost. The Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of a project is 17% means it is the
discount rate at which the Net Present Value (NPV) of a project equals zero. The Net Present value of
Projects is $890.48 that equal to the sum of the presents value of all the cash Flows associated with the
projects.
