1. Scope: Purpose of FM
• Different users have different emphasis in FM
– Developer: Total cash earning, IRR, ROE
– Lender: Debt service coverage ratio
– Construction Company: Return on construction cost
– Government: Value for Money
• FM shall explain Operating, Investing and Financing CF
results.
– CF from operating activity: Forecast Project’s operating revenue
and expense. Shall be easily adjustable for operating assumption
changes (e.g. traffic demand, tariff, operating expense and
others)
– CF from investing activity: Forecast Project’s investment cost.
Shall be easily adjustable for investing assumption changes (e.g.
construction cost)
– CF from financing activity: Forecast Project’s required funding
amount, debt and equity amount, and drawdown and repayment
schedules. Shall be easily adjustable for financing assumption
changes (e.g. interest rate, debt vs. equity)

Section 2 Understanding Numbers
1. Net Present Value (NPV)?
• NPV is “the difference between the present value of cash inflows
and the present value of cash outflows.
– To analyze the profitability of an investment or project.
– Applied discount rate is an expected rate of return from
project
n = the time of the cash flow r = Discount rate
CashIni = Cash inflow at time i CashOuti = Cash outflow at time
i
• NPV > 0: Positive net cash flow with r à Project investment
accepted
• NPV < 0: Positive net cash flow with r à Project investment
declined
åå == +

• NPV is “the difference between the present value of cash inflows
and the present value of cash outflows.
– To analyze the profitability of an investment or project.
– Applied discount rate is an expected rate of return from
project
n = the time of the cash flow r = Discount rate

i
• NPV > 0: Positive net cash flow with r à Project investment
accepted
• NPV < 0: Positive net cash flow with r à Project investment
declined
åå == +
2. Internal Rate of Return (IRR)?
• IRR is “the discount rate that makes the net present value of all
cash flows (both positive and negative) from a particular
investment equal to zero.
• NPV vs. IRR
– IRR: Expressed in percentile
• IRR > Expected discount rate (r): Project return rate is
greater than expected one à Project investment accepted
• IRR < Expected discount rate (r): Project return rate is less
than expected one à Project investment declined

3. NPV and IRR Example (3)
• Real cash flow
• Fisher effect
– (1 + Real IRR) × (1 + CPI growth rate) = (1 + Nominal IRR)

• Key sensitivity factors affecting Project IRR/Usage
fee/Government Subsidy
6. SOC Project Sensitivity Analysis(2)
• Increase in total project cost (survey, design, construction,
compensation, incidental, operation equipment, taxes) à IRR ↑ à
Government subsidy/Usage fee ↓
• Decrease in operating cost (labour, general, maintenance) à IRR ↑
à Government subsidy/Usage fee ↓
• Decrease in CPEX (# of units, unit per price) à Total project
cost ↓ à Replacement cost during operation period ↓ à IRR ↑ à
Government subsidy/Usage fee ↓
• Increase in revenue (traffic volume, tariff) à IRR ↑ à Government
subsidy/Usage fee ↓
• Increase in concession period à IRR ↑ à Government subsidy/Usage
fee ↓
è But, IRR might decrease when major replacement costs need to be
incurred.

6. SOC Project Sensitivity Analysis (3)
• Increase in CPI rate à Tax ↑ à After-tax IRR ↓ à Government
subsidy/Usage fee ↑
à If CPI growth rate is forecasted to increase from 4% to 5%, tax
on cash flow is affected.
à The portion of amortization and interest expense from total tax
base income is reduced and as such tax expense increases.
à After-tax project IRR is reduced and therefore government subsidy
increases.
• Decrease in interest rate à Tax ↑ à After-tax IRR ↓ à Government
subsidy/Usage fee ↑
à If Annual debt interest rate decrease from 10% to 9%, tax on cash
flow is affected.
à After-tax project IRR is reduced and therefore government subsidy
increases.
à Government subsidy decrease while interest rate increase.
Before-tax IRR is not changed substantially from the changes in CPI
growth rate and interest rate

Spreadsheet Design - Best Practice Top Tips (1)
1. Keep it simple! l e.g. simple formula; refer input on same
sheet, break formulae into multiple rows. l less risk of confusing
yourself and others l easier to follow the audit trail l no prizes
for complicated formulae
2. Separate Inputs/Calculations/Outputs using different sheets
& colours l so you can easily identify the assumptions l
understand the flow of the model
3. Keep the flow natural, top to bottom, left to right l e.g.
display assumptions on calculation pages before referring to them
in calculations l makes the spreadsheet easier to read and
understand l however, key outputs should be on left of the
model

4. Input data once - use it many times and link l reduces risk of
not updating all occurrences of an input
l reduces the number of inputs
5. One formula per row or column, and write them to be “copyable” l
prevents errors from copying over mid-row formulae changes
l logic is always in one place, and the same place, in each
row
l makes reviewing/testing and future maintenance easier
6. Make column headings consistent, and use the same starting
column for each time series (rule of F14) l allows for simpler
formulas and avoids referencing errors
l multiple narrative columns (A-E) allows for clear labelling

7. Use protection
l reduces the chance of accidental change
l not for prevention of malicious damage, so don’t use worksheet
passwords
8. Range names
l makes formulae more readable, particularly when referring to
another worksheet
l encourages good design and structure
l can enable a building block approach
l very useful if linking to another workbook
9. Make extensive use of error traps and cross checks, and
summarise results on a single sheet l makes Excel work to help find
mistakes
l quick view to see if errors have been introduced

11. Use repeating worksheets with identical structures or repeat
calculation blocks l reduces the work involved in repetitive
