Calculate Interest on Saving Account with New Method of RBI

If you are listening finance news on your TV, You would listen that RBI has changed the calculation method for calculating interest on your saving account. From 1st April, 2010, your interest is calculated on daily base. I am explaining this new method of calculating interest on saving account in bank.

1st April

Cash balance is 100,000 in your saving account in bank = you will receive 3.5% on Rs. 100,000 for 1st April = Rs. 9.7

2nd April

You deposits 100,000 more and now balance is Rs. 200,000 = you will receive 3.5% on Rs. 200,000 for 2nd April = Rs. 19.4

So, with this,  each day investment will give you return on your saving fund in banks in India.

I think, this is good news because it will increase overall earning of customers who are depositing their money in saving account. After using this method, investors who has invested their money in saving accounts of banks will receive 20% to 22% higher interest return than pervious method for calculation of interest.

Inspirational Message to Students on My 30th Birthday



Dear Students,

Yesterday (30-03-2010) was my birthday. My age is now 30 years. First of all, I am thankful to God, who provides me power to live and to do work of humanity. I think, large numbers of people are dead before 30 years due to any reasons. Before reaching this age, I have faced many dangerous accidents, but I saved. If I try to analyze the reason beyond this, I can only one argument that God has given me one opportunity to live more than 30 years and to provide educational services. Today, I want to give some inspirational message to those who are my students.

1. I have wasted some of my time in past and I feel sad why did I waste my time without any work or gaining education. Please don’t waste time. Use it for getting more and more education. Only education can make your career. Give time to your all subjects. I remembered that in my school and college time, I wrote time of study on the books and I was used to study on that time. You can also your time table. Follow this time table and live in disciplined life.

2. I don’t know some of my online student but when I read their email letter in which they write their negative approach regarding accounting study. Never think with negative approach. You can get inspiration from me. When I started accounting education blog in Jan. 2008, I earned nothing about nine month. But, I always think positive and now, I succeeded. Like me, fix you goal. You need to have extraordinary perseverance to attain them. You should faith in your abilities. Never become double minded regarding your goal.

3. To equip my online students with multifarious skills, I will start to conduct special online conferences. Today, you can live talk me via Gmail or yahoo massager. My email is Vinod@svtuition.org  . Conference time 10:00 A.M. to 12.00 A.M. (Indian time). I future, I will fix time for my foreign students. Please don’t only chatting with me. Without any purpose chatting is waste of time. You can do this conference for solving your accounting and finance problems. Please, first send me your introduction to my email Vinod@svtuition.org  before 10 A.M. (31-03-2010)

4. I know that some of Indian students face the financial hardship and unable to pay high tuition fees for professional course. I will make special course like C.A., ICWA and MBA and you can freely study at http://www.svtuition.org/  .

5. These days, finance is becoming a hot issue in the world after financial crisis. A lot of debate is generating in blogsphare also. So, solving finance problems, there will be needed large number of professionals in future. I have studied your finance books. Many of major topics are not covered in it. So, be practical and regular study latest on Google.

6. Keep your eyes on amendments, government and RBI guidelines and notification of any changes in law. It will become you perfect.

7. Never think that you are studying merely to clear examinations, but to get knowledge.

8. Remember, a student of the course has to remain a student lifelong. If you do not update yourselves, you will die.

9. You should develop also leadership quality, ethical conduct, creative thinking and integrity.

10. I believe that there is no substitute for personally experiencing. Soon, I will organize educational quiz contest for your development and enrichment. I hope you will participate

Financial Disaster































Financial disaster is that state of company in which there is no possibility of inflow of cash due to decreasing the value of shares in stock market, decrease the numbers of customers. It is the point where company is going to become bankrupt. In economics, economic collapse is the substitute word of financial disaster. Many other words like financial crisis, economic crisis, financial meltdown and fund crisis can be used on the place of financial disaster.

Liquidity Risk

In finance, liquidity means cash or cash inflow and liquidity risk means risk of not receiving cash at the time when we need it. Its other name is cash risk. We can understand this risk in two ways.

#1 No value of Asset

When, you want to sell the asset and you receive nothing. It means there is no value of asset. If your asset have some value but it may possible that it can become worthless in future. The risk of this loss will be liquidity risk. Because after becoming nil market value assets, you will not able to get cash or liquid.
For example, you have bought 500 shares any company but after downfall in share market, it may possible that next day, your shares will not be bought by any body. So, this risk will be liquidity risk.

# 2. No enough cash in pocket

If you did not manage and cash properly, it may possible that in future you have to pay your expenses but there is no money in your pocket. At that stage your business may bankrupt.

Two Major Reasons of Liquidity Risk

1. No Proper Cash Management

It is first major reason of liquidity risk. If your cash management system is not good, it is sure that you will face this risk. I can take example of bank. If bank manager does not keep some reserve for immediately withdrawal of money, bank also suffers liquidity risk.

2. No Proper taking of Investment Decisions

Few days, ago, I have given many tools of investment analysis like NPV, IRR and MIRR and P.I. and real asset analysis. If an investor invests his money with selection of good investment proposal, these risks are become uncontrollable.

Liquidity Risk Management

Like wise man, if you have to manage liquidity risk, you should keep good understanding of the tools of liquidity risk. If you learn better control on cash and fund, you can save your organization from liquidity risk. If we do not properly manage liquidity risk, it becomes major financial disaster. There are many testing with this you can measure your liquidity risk and after this we can quantify using stochastic modeling techniques.

Government Investment

>> March 28, 2010

Like education, politics has converted into business. In politics, government of every country has become businessman or investor. Like businessman, it wants to return on each and every expenditure. In past, we had selfless and experienced leaders in India like Lal Bahadur Shastri whose main aim of expenditures are to do the duty of society. Now, in this commercial age, you should know what is government investment?

Government expenditures can be divided into two part, one part is for consumption for only one aim of public welfare. Other part of government expenditure which is paid for the aim of getting return that part of government expenditure is called government investment. Suppose, government has expended Rs. 100 for feeding for poor Indian, this is not government investment. But government has spent Rs. 100, 00,000 for making highway. After this, government starts to get toll tax or transport tax from public. A government expense for making highway is government investment. For commerce student, above is simple example which explains the difference between government spending and government investment, if you are asked by someone. First of all, Goverment analyzes the investment projects with capital budgeting techinques, after this which projects gives high yield, government invest in that project.

Major Ways of Government Investment

  • Through financial collaborations.
  • Through joint ventures and technical collaborations with MNC.
  • Through capital markets.

Fiscal Policy

>> March 27, 2010

We are discussing public financing. Earlier, we have discussed income tax, VAT, Government budgeting and government bonds. Today, we have taken the concept of fiscal policy. Fiscal policy is that policy which is made by government for controlling the government expenditure, supply of money and taxes. Fiscal policy is great equipment in the hand of any country’s government to make better tax system and to manage the public loan and expenditures.

We all know that if government budget shows that estimated expenditures are more than estimated incomes. At that time, it is very necessary to make fiscal policy to bring this adverse situation to balance level where will be total expenditure will equal to total income of government. For this government can use following five techniques of fiscal policy.

Techniques of Fiscal Policy


1. Taxation Policy

By amendment in Indian tax law 1961, government of India has power to make new taxation policy according to the current Indian economic situation. Either government can increase the tax rate or decrease exemption for collecting more tax for previous year income.

2. Public expenditure policy

Public expenditure policy is very useful to reduce the government expenditure. Government divides total expenditures into two major categories one is development expenditure and other is non development expenditure. With this policy, government encourages only development expenditure and tries to reduce non development expenditure.

3. Deficit financing policy

If above two equipment does not work to create balance in government budget, government can get loan from central bank to adjust deficiency or deficit. For this RBI has to issue new currency notes. But this decision should be taken very carefully because increasing trend of deficit financing will decrease the value of currency in world market and it will increase the prices of commodities in commodity market.

4. Seigniorage

Seigniorage is also technique to take benefits by issuing new notes and it is important role to make fiscal policy.

5. Public Debt Policy

Public debt means, loan is taken by government to fulfill government expenditures. Government should make this policy very seriously. If there any other source, then government should use to pay government expenditure or reducing expenditure is better than taking loan. Sometime, under the pressure of foreign creditor, government of India has to take many decisions which are against public interest. So, government of India’s minister should live in simple life and think high. They should use internet for doing all work. With this, India can save Rs. 500,000 per month/ per minister for travelling expenditure.

Government Debt

The concept of Government Debt is extensive than government bonds. When government expenses are more than its income, then its difference is called deficiency of deficit and this deficit can cover either issuing new notes or getting debt from public. Government debt’s other name is public debt.

Types of Government Debt

If I talk  about Indian government debt, then types of government debt are divided into two parts:-

1. Internal Debt

Government of India collects this debt from Indian people by promoting small saving and public deposits in villages and cities post office and banks. It should be collected without disturbing personal finance.

2. External Debt

Government of India also collects debt from foreign governments. This loan is used for purchasing foreign currency, technical knowledge and capital equipments.

Government Bonds

Government Bonds is special type of debt which is taken by government by issuing bonds. It is the document which is given to those people who gives loan to government. In this bonds government promises to repay at its maturity with interest. In other words, these are fixed-income debt securities issued by the government. It is included in Public finance because indirectly its repayment burden will be on public.

Let’s me explain:-

Suppose, Govt. of India has taken loan from USA $1 Million Dollar for productive work. In local currency, its value is Rs. 4500,000. At the time of repayment, Government of India can take further loan from public or issuing new loan or increase the rate of tax. All these will increase the financial burden on public of India. Yesterday, you have read “what is seigniorage?” In this content, I have explained how can government earn money by issuing new notes and create more burden on public. Same thing is for government bonds.

Obama Rejects Public Financing

>> March 26, 2010


Democratic candidate Barack Obama announced Thursday he won't take part in the public-finance system for the presidential campaign. Obama becomes the first candidate in a general election to opt out of the primary system.

Month after month, Barack Obama has shattered campaign fundraising records. Today he's brought in more than $260 million. And with enthusiasm building, new donors to tap, Hillary Clinton's supporters, for example, and with many of those who've given before eager to give more, the $84 million he'd be eligible for, if he's stuck with public financing, was starting to seen like small change. Which brings us to today's not-so-surprising Obama announcement, contained in a video e-mailed to supporters first thing this morning.

It's not an easy decision, especially because I support a robust system of public financing of elections. But the public financing of presidential elections, as it exists today, is broken and we face opponents who've become masters of gaming this broken system.


America is a country of strong families and strong values. My life has been blessed by both. I was raised by a single mom and my grandparents. We didn't have much money. But they taught me values straight from the Kansas heartland where they grew up...
Democratic Sen. Barack Obama said Thursday he will forgo public money to help finance his general election campaign, a move that frees him to raise unlimited funds from private and corporate donors.


Obama, who has raked in more than $265 million so far, shattering presidential campaign fundraising records, will forgo some $84 million that would have been available to him in the general election. Link

What is Seigniorage?

Seigniorage is part of public finance and government's meagre earning source like income tax and VAT. If we have to define seigniorage, we can say,"Seigniorage is earning of government for issuing new notes."

Explanation

# Case One
Suppose Govt. of India issued Rs. 100000 new notes and it was given for purchasing Gold of any other company. After one year, govt. of India sells this Gold and receives Rs. 200000 due to inflation and increasing the price of gold. Then Rs. 100000 is seigniorage. In seigniorage, govt. receives profit due to decreasing the value of currency.

Formula of Calculating Seigniorage

= Net profit on producing of new notes and coins.

# Case Second

Suppose Govt. of India produced  Rs. 500 one note and its cost for printing was just Rs. 100. If govt. of India pays Rs. 500 for repayment of his loan, then  Rs. 400 net profit on producting of new note will be the seigniorage of govt. of India.

Value Added Tax in Public Finance



Main source of public finance are direct tax and indirect tax. In direct tax, we have already discussed income tax. Now, we are explaining value added tax. It is the revenue source of the state. Value added tax is tax which is chargeable on the value added in price. It means when a buyer buys any commodity, he has to pay VAT input and after this when he sells the same commodity by adding different charges, receives VAT output on the sale of commodities. Now, he has to pay the tax to state govt. up to the excess of VAT output over VAT input.

VAT payable to Govt. = VAT output - VAT input

The Concept of VAT is a very popular system of Taxation which emerged in European Countries. The VAT system is adopted by most of the countries to bring about user-convenience and transparency in the entire system of taxation. The working system of VAT is simple to follow, implement and administer.

If the tax paid on purchases (Input tax), is more than the tax payable (output tax), the same can be either carried forward to next return period or claimed as refund. The tax amount carried forward will be accounted as Input tax credit for the next return period. In the subsequent periods, this credit can be utilized for payment of any liability to the department like output tax, Interest, penalty etc., subject to the provisions or restrictions as specified in VAT Rules. In India, VAT applied on 1st April 2005.

Government Budget

In finance, Government Budget is the part of public finance. In simple words, Government budget is that legal document which shows the estimation of government expenses and incomes. Main source of government income is tax. But there are large numbers of expenditures which has to be incurred by government. In these expenses, we can include salary and pension of government employee, expenses for making schools, colleges, universities, railways and roadways. ForAll these, need money. Government budget also shows difference of estimated incomes and expenses. This difference can be adjusted by increasing revenue, decreasing expenses, issuing of new notes and taking of loan. Government budget is base of making family budget and every citizen wants that it should be made for Garib Aadmi not Aam Aadmi . In India government budget is made under union budget by finance Minister.

Aims and Challenges of Indian Government Budget 2010-2011


  •  To quickly revert to the high GDP growth path of 9 per cent and then find the means to cross the ‘double digit growth barrier’.
  • To harness economic growth to consolidate the recent gains in making development more inclusive.
  • To address the weaknesses in government systems, structures and institutions at different levels of governance.


Plus Points of Indian Government Budget 2010-2011

  1. India among the first few countries in the world to implement a broad-based counter-cyclic policy package to respond to the negative fallout of the global slowdown.
  2. The Advance Estimates for Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth for 2009-10 pegged at 7.2 per cent. The final figure expected to be higher when the third and fourth quarter GDP estimates for 2009-10 become available.
  3. The growth rate in manufacturing sector in December 2009 was 18.5 per cent – the highest in the past two decades.
  4. A major concern during the second half of 2009-10 has been the emergence of double digit food inflation. Government has set in motion steps, in consultation with the State Chief Ministers, which should bring down the inflation in the next few months and ensure that there is better management of food security in the country.
  5. The Income Tax department has introduced “Sevottam”, a pilot project at Pune, Kochi and Chandigarh through Aayakar Seva Kendras, which provide a single window system for registration of all applications including those for redressal of grievances as well as paper returns. The scheme will be extended to four more cities in the year.
  6. Current surcharge of 10 per cent on domestic companies reduced to 7.5 per cent.
  7. Accredited news agencies which provide news feed online that meet certain criteria, exempted from service tax.

Minus Point of Indian Government Budget

  1.  In India, Central govt. makes budget but is not acted upon due to corruption. You can see that govt. fixes the prices of commodity in budget but in the middle of year, these expenses are dramatically increased. No authority has any answer for this.
  2. One side govt. says that our income sources are limited and we should decrease our expenses but on the other side, each minister’s per month cost is more than Rs. 500000 which is provided in budget. Why?
  3. Like last year budget, Govt. has made planning to expand Rs. 300 crore to organize 60,000 “pulses and oil seed villages” in rain-fed areas during 2010-11 and provide an integrated intervention for water harvesting, watershed management and soil health, to enhance the productivity of the dry land farming areas. I think that after this, price of pulses will reach at Rs. 200 per kg. Because I have read last year budget in which govt. had made same planning and today all pulses are touching Rs. 100 per kg.
  4.  In union budget 2009, Government of India had estimated Rs. 26800 crores for education and this year govt. of India had estimated Rs. 31036 crores. After this, I am sorry to say that there is no quality education at school level in India.
  5. Rate of Minimum Alternate Tax (MAT) increased from the current rate of 15 percent to 18 per cent of book profits.
  6. Fiscal deficit for BE 2010-11 at 5.5 per cent of GDP, which works out to Rs.3,81,408 crore.
  7. Plan allocation to Ministry of Health & Family Welfare increased from Rs 19,534 crore in 2009-10 to Rs 22,300 crore for 2010-11. No need to pay on heath. Govt. should care and expend for the health of their ministers, others will protect with zero cost natural way.

>> March 25, 2010

Problem

Sir can u answer these problems....Please !

Financial accounting

Part 1

Rockhampton Ltd has acquired a new machine, which it had installed in its factory. Which of the following items should be capitalized into the cost of the building?
(a) Labor and travel costs for managers to inspect possible new machines and for negotiating for a new machine
(b) Freight costs and insurance to get the new machine to the factory
(c) Costs for renovating a section of the factory, in anticipation of the new machine’s arrival, to ensure that all the other parts of the factory will have easy access to the new machine
(d) Cost of cooling equipment to assist in the efficient operation of the new machine.
(e) Costs of repairing the factory door, which was damaged by the installation of the new machine
(f) Training costs of workers who will use the machine

Provide a one sentence explanation giving the reason for capitalizing or expensing, in each case.

Solution:

a) It is revenue expenditure because, it is routine duty of purchase manager to see and negotiate for new machine. It will not be the part of capital expenditure.
b) It must be capital expenditure and also be the part of machine’s cost.
c) It is also revenue expenditure because there is no increment in fixed asset.
d) It is capital expenditure due to increasing the fixed asset in factory.
e) It is general expense and be revenue expenditure.
f) It is also revenue expenditure. You can ask me why and I can answer, training costs is part of salary of worker not the part of asset. After installing machine by labor, no other charges will add except purchasing of new part of machine. You should also read "Difference between revenue and capital items."

Part 2

Maryborough Ltd has acquired a new building for $500000. It has incurred incidental costs of $10000 in the acquisition process for legal fees, real estate agent‘s fees and stamp duties. Management believes that these costs should be expensed because they have not increased the value of the building and if the building was immediately resold, these amounts would not recouped. In other words, the fair value of the building is considered to still be $500000.

Required:

Explain how Maryborough Ltd should account for the $510000 it has expended with respect to the building.

Solution:

Maryborough ltd should not sell building even for $ 510000 because, he should earn minimum 20% margin. But if Maryborough ltd is providing free services like me, then it should clearly say to purchaser who is purchasing your building

1. Do you eat bread or wheat? He will surely say bread not wheat. In India, the cost of bread is Rs. 20 just two pieces and cost of wheat is Rs. 15 per kg. It means the person who gives you bread in plate calculate the full price of 2 bread after adding following fees.

a) Salary of worker
b) Wheat cost
c) Fire cost
d) Furniture depreciation
e) Lighting cost
f) Rent
g) Depreciation of fan
h) Owner’s profit
i) Depreciation of plate
j) Owner’s Mobile expenses
k) Owner’s petrol expenses
l) Owner’s cable expense
m) Damage of food
n) Inflation in the prices of raw material
o) Insurance bill of employee
p) Gifts of wife
q) Fees of children
r) And many other expenses

Dear purchaser, I am taking minor cost which is the part of building and capital expenditure, so please give me $ 510000 instead of $ 500000. I think that purchaser will agree with you.

Private Equity

Few weeks ago, a financial company came to my home. It offered me some investment plans. They knew my home address from one of my old friend. I was not interested to invest. Due to my nature, I asked its plan and after studied, I found that these marketing guys are operating limited partnership and they created private equity fund and encourage people to invest in these fund by showing high return on this investment. Even, their company is neither registered under Indian company Act nor its shares are listed in any stock exchange in India. They collect money from private and personal network and then they invest either in stock market or commodity market and give share to the investors of private equity. So, we can simply say that private equity is just investment in limited partnership firms. Many countries allow investor to invest in private equity. They create venture capital or growth capital fund and any body can buy the share after paying its price.

Private Equity in India

You can see large number of limited partnership in India. They accept cash as private equity. Simple search on google by “writing private equity in India”, you can see millions limited partnerships who offer this fund in which you can invest. I have opened the sites of BPEPindia.com, iciciventure.com and some other sites and read their written contents. After reading, I can explain you that all these organization gets money from public and invest in information technology, media, manufacturing, logistics, textiles and real estate. No control , no regulation, just funda of trading on equity!

Asian private equity opportunities

Pak-Seng Lai, Asia managing director at Auda International LP, talks with Bloomberg's Bernard Lo about investment opportunities in China. Lai also discusses the outlook for the private equity industry. Link
According to Auda," Asian private equity investment has reach $ 4 billion in India and it is estimated that it will grow more from this point"

Retirement planning is relating to utilization of money and fund in consumption and investment purposes which employee receives at the time of his retirement. In this amount, he can receive provident fund, maturity amount of his insurance policy and gratuity dues.

 Employee can take dream to live in good and newly built residential house or he can plan to travel whole world or his own country. Some of employee can think to invest in residential house to realize their dreams. Other may invest their money in risky but high ROI schemes. But according to my view, retired persons should priority only invest in secured investment. They should understand that they earned their money after working life hardwork. It will become water, if they capture in bad investment schemes.

I know one retired person who invested all his money in house construction business by creating partnership. Because, he did not know housing construction business, so after making of houses, no house was sold by them after spending of 4 years. Now, their whole retirement money has bound in houses which are not generating minimum interest earning. Many of us, waste money in real estate market without knowledge. If you are going to retire in this year or next 30th year, pick the note book or google note book and write year all retirement planning.

I can help you what are your main retirement planning

1. To buy car

2. To go to travelling and fun tour

3. To use money in enjoy with family

4. To support children in their career or business setting

5. To support children in their marriage

6. To open old age home

7. To open orphan home

8. To open school where poor students are taught freely

9. To invest money on health

10. To donate all retirement money to Wikipedia, relief fund or any other NGO

11. To invest in any scheme of financial company for getting earning a satisfying income

12. To live your life on pension

13. To create Contingency reserve

After this, analyze what will be your source of earning after your retirement. Will it cover all your expenses when you will not get any salary or pension from govt. or employer.
