SOLUTIONS :
the Liquidated damages for delay for some of the days is as follows :
Day 20 : 200000 (10000*20)
Day 40 : 440000 (200000+ 1,2000*20)
Day 60 : 740000 ( 440000+ 15000*20)
Day 65 : 840000 (740000 +20000*5)
Day 66 : 860000 (740000 +20000*6)
Day 70 : 940000 (740000 +20000*10)
Day 85 : 1265000
Similarly the penalty for other days can be calculated.
Consider option 1:
Total penalty for delay will be the sum of penalty of 85 days, 65
days, 45 days= 1265000 + 840000 + 515000 =2620000
Implementation cost = 350000
So Total loss = 2620000+350000= 2970000
So profit of company if this option is select = 9950000-2970000=
6980000
It is given that if all the projects were delivered on time the profit
would be 99.5 lakh. (1st paragraph)
If the company gets bonus of 2 lakh for each project delivered on
time in option 1 the bonus received will be 6 lakh as 3 projects
will be delivered on time. Then the loss when implementing this
option would be 2970000- 600000= 2370000 and the profit
would be 9950000-2370000= 7580000
If the implementation cost is reduced to half the cost of
implementing this option will be : 2620000+ (350000/2)=
2795000 and thus profit would be 9950000-2795000= 7155000
Similarly it can be solved for other options as well.
