Financial Feasibility Studies

Prospectus’ research and writing team is recognized as a world leader in financial feasibility study preparation. Consisting of lifelong entrepreneurs, our team is dedicated to the success of our clients’ goal. We have assisted hundreds of companies in writing their finance and economic feasibility reports and prepared vital studies for a business’s initial launch. From real estate to high tech to economic development to refineries of all kinds, there is not an aspect of the feasibility study process that our staff is not intimately knowledgeable about. The financial aspect of such studies is one of our strengths.

A financial feasibility study, or FFS, should assess the viability of a project based on major pivotal component: will the project or business have enough cash to complete the project (and generate a profit). One of the bottom lines of any business is whether a company can sustain itself, pay its employees and of course make a profit. A financial study can help in this assessment. Components to considers include:

  1. Company Expenses
  2. Revenues.
  3. Assets
  4. Liabilities
  5. Cash flow (money in, and money out).

An economic or finance feasibility study is developed for companies that seek to understand the amount of capital they need to procure to successfully start and complete any given project. While a business plan may have a section called the “CBA” or cost-benefit-analysis, in an economic feasibility study it will be greater in detail and have more statistics and numbers in the financials.

Importance of a Financial Feasibility Study

There are many important factors that any feasibility study should address, and in the financial or economic studies this is equally true. A financial feasibility study can concentrate on a variety of projects or developments or can focus one specific area or study. In any finance study, particularly if one is seeking to raise capital from a bank or private backers, the basic minimum of any financial report (and business plan as well) should be to cover the following:

  • How much capital ones needs to begin the business;
  • How much capital ones needs to operate the business;
  • ROI or return on investment, i.e. when will investors see their money back with a return.

Why Write a Financial Feasibility Study?

Writing a financial feasibility study is good business practice, especially for companies that are planning on raising many millions of dollars and want to have the knowledge readily available to make an educated decision about a project’s viability. It is hard to image a bank or investor infusing capital in a company raising tens of millions of dollars that does not have such a report.  By creating such a real estate financial study or for any product study, for example, you will be able to navigate potential pitfalls during development and save needed capital in the process, as well as possibly discover new opportunities in the market.

Benefits of Writing a Feasibility Study:

  • Prepares the companies for up to date information regarding statistical information on any project, i.e. market for products, real estate development, demographics, income streams, etc.
  • Creates a knowledge of how much capital, if any, is needed for the project’s launch and success. Again, this can be for any business, high tech, real estate, oil, energy etc.
  • Helps with strategies. Since the financing needs are known this can help with strategizing next moves or first mover advantage for new areas.
  • Identifies areas for growth.
  • Inspires confidence in the management team since obtaining the numbers can strengthen a business and its leadership belief in the company’s success.
  • Feasibility studies provide intelligence, statistics for the management team.

A feasibility study is essentially written prior to a project’s undertaking for a simple reason: Directors of companies and their investors want to ensure that any given project they plan on developing is actually “feasible”, and preparing a study showing this feasibility is the main point of writing such a report (which of course will help save needed capital and time in the long run). A feasibility study includes such vital information and data as the funding needs to complete the project, the market opportunity, government regulations, risk factors, strength and weaknesses, the management team and the financials of the company. While a feasibility study somewhat sounds like a business plan, such reports tend to be many times longer with more details on the market and financials.
