Critical Negative Variables and Risks
• Wages and benefits may change as new bills come into play.
• Inflation is a factor, having been higher than usual in 2011 with escalation of fuel prices.
• Weather patterns – rains, less clients especially the mariner when it rains.
• Competition when it builds up.
• Political situation – elections 2016/7
Critical Positive variables
• Lakefront and people’s love for water
• Investment license:
- 5 year tax break with investment license- purchases (a percentage of VAT (currently at 18%) is reimbursed
• Tourism figures steadily and significantly increasing as are expatriate staff working and living in country.
• The Oil industry – more jobs = more people with income to spend
• Enthusiasm for spa and leisure (including mariner)
Return on Investment
• Though with initial loss in the first year because of initial investment costs and fewer running days, it will start to generate profit the second year
• Profit momentum builds in the third year and the original investment can be paid off by the fourth year.
• High IRR allows for contingencies that are still being looked at. Having this buffer makes the feasibility of the project good.
In conclusion…
• Like anything, there are conditions and hard work that must be met, and challenges that must be overcome, but….
• From the base business plan: a promising venture, and good investment.
• Good charismatic outlook.
• A definite potential winner!
