Financial Feasibility Indicators
► As Matson (2000) sees it, the feasibility study refines the initial
business idea, while the business plan uses information from the
feasibility study to further prepare the project to evolve into an
operating business.
Criteria for Financial Feasibility
3. Ratio methods;
4. Payback methods;
5. Accounting methods.
Net Present Value
N
NCFt
NPV = t
t =0 (1 + r )
NCF=Net Cash Flows
(Cash inflows – Cash Outflows)
r = Expected rate of Return
For Real Estate Project in Micro-market, assuming 50% Loan (Debt)
and 50% Personal Investment (Equity) we get:
Kd = Cost of Debt = 11.20% (SBI Project finance interest rate, Dec 2020)
Ke = Cost of Equity = 25% (Assuming Current market risks and other alternative
investment options)
∴ WACC = 15.34%
► Personal Down payment = 5 Lakhs
► Bank Loan = 45 Lakhs
► Bank Loan interest rate = 9%
► The benefit-cost method is often used for public projects. The method compares
project benefits to the cost of the project, and for the project to be viable, the
benefits have to be greater than the cost. By definition, project benefits are the
favorable consequences of the project to the public, and project cost is the
monetary disbursement required of the government (Sullivan et al., 2006).
Internal Rate of Return
► This measures the length of time required for the net cash
flows generated during production to cover the cash
outflows during exploration and development.
► This occurs where the cumulative cash flow is zero.
► The option with the shortest payback is most preferred.
