Hi Michael,
There are a couple of of metrics indicating that the project is not economically feasible given your assumptions:
Developer IRR = NaN
Debt percent > 100%
Host NPV < 0
You can explore the cash flow details on the Cash Flow tab to better understand what the financial model is doing.
I would review the inputs on the Financial Parameters page to see if they are what you expect.
- Discount rate represents value of alternative investment and is used to calculate the NPV.
- DSCR (debt service coverage ratio) -- this value is typically one required by the loan provider. The DSCR option automatically sizes debt based on revenue available for debt service. If you aren't sure about DSCR, you can use the debt percent option to size the debt as a percentage of the total installed cost.
The following assumptions add cost to the project:
- Debt closing cost, up-front fee, and construction financing cost are in addition to the total installed to calculate the total capital cost.
- Reserve accounts are funded and disbursed throughout the analysis period.
Best regards,
Paul.
