Financial feasibility

If financially feasible, suggest the use of commerdally available drug organizers. If the patient cannot afford drug organizers, egg cartons or a muffin tin can be labeled and used as drug organize s. 

The scenarios that have been selected as most optimal in terms of technical and environmental criteria finally have to be assessed with respect to financial consequences. Capital costs and operating costs have to be compared with the costs that are considered financially feasible. 

Before Dr. Brouchard can begin providing these services, he wants to make sure that his program is financially feasible. To do this, he needs to explore ways to be compensated for his services. He is familiar with being compensated for durable medical equipment, so he knows the pharmacy can bill for blood glucose meters, but he has never tried to bill third-party payers or patients for other types of services. 

While value-added services can enhance existing pharmacy services, to be maintained long term, they also must be financially feasible. Adequate compensation for these services is essential. Numerous compensation strategies are available, but they vary based on the insurance carrier and the physical setting where the service is provided. In addition to payment for direct patient care, compensation can also occur for laboratory tests and procedures. One continuing challenge for the... 

In the feasibility analysis, extensive research is performed on the product/service, industry, market, organizational feasibility, and financial feasibility of the opportunity. This is an extremely important component... 

Note that the financial feasibility depends on having a sufficient utility buyback rate. For instance, if the buy-back rate had been 0.04 instead of 0,064 per kilowatt-hour, then the revenue per tire would have been only 0.98. This would yield a profit of only 0.95 per tire. Under this lower buy-back rate the annual gross profit would be only 9 million, and the payback period would be over 11 years. 

With such a long payback period the plant would have difficulty attracting investors. Therefore, the utility buy-back rate is the critical economic barrier in determining whether a plant is financially feasible. 

This payback period is fairly attractive for a commercial facility, since it is less than three years. However, it is dependent on a relatively high tipping fee and a continuing demand for tdf at 20 per ton. If either of these decreased significantly, the venture would not be financially feasible. 

Next, the technical, economic, and financial feasibility of proposed processes must be demonstrated. Unless the project shows considerable promise when matched against other potential projects, it may be abandoned. Any particular coiT5)any will have several projects to invest in but limited financial resources so that only the most promising projects will be continued. The research engineer should estimate the capital investment required and the production cost of the product. No matter how crade or incon jlete the process data may be, the research engineer must estimate the profitability of the process to determine if further process development is economically worth the effort. This analysis will also uncover those areas requiring further research to obtain more information for a more accurate economic evaluation. 

The objective is to evaluate the technical, economic, and financial feasibility of a process. 

Even if insufficient technical information is available to design a plant completely, we must still make an economical evaluation to determine if it is economically and financially feasible. A project is economically feasible when it is more profitable than other competing projects, and financially feasible when management can raise the capital for its implementation. Although calculations may show that a given project could be extremely profitable, the capital requirements may strain the financial capabilities of the organization. In this case, the project may be abandoned imless partners can be found to share the risk. The economic evaluation of a process proceeds in several steps [1]. These are ... 

Usually, there is more than one solution to an engineering problem that is technically feasible, and socially, environmentally, and even esthetically acceptable. Among these solutions, the engineer selects the solution that is the least costly and is financially feasible. Even though a project may appear profitable, there may be insufficient capital available to iir ilement the project so that financial feasibility is also an important consideration. Assuming that a particular solution meets all the... 

To limit instrument downtime, and if financially feasible, it is a good idea to have an extra ion source which can be exchanged after venting the instrument. This encourages more frequent source maintenance and provides more consistent analytical results.

In addition to yearly burning, beehives are kept in the palmetto groves to insure pollination, which improves the crop s yield. One company, Plantation Botanicals, is experimenting with tme cultivation of Serenoa in Guatemala, but because of the easy availability of wild material, actual farm cultivation is not currently financially feasible. 

In 1999, DOE issued a solicitation seeking proposals to evaluate the technical and financial feasibility of projects known as EECP (early entrance coproduction plant). These plants are aimed at demonstrating the operations of advanced CTL technologies in integrated mode at pre-commercial or commercial scale units. The study was structured in three phases Phase I (concept definition and research/development and testing planning). Phase II... 

Nakamoto and co-workers have shown, however, that the magnitudes of metal isotope shifts are generally of the order of 2-10cm" for stretching modes and 0-2 cm for bending modes, and that the experimental error in measuring the frequency could be as small as 0.2 cm if proper precautions are taken. They have also. shown that this technique is financially feasible (see Table I-ll) if the compounds are prepared on a milligram scale. Normally, the vibrational spectrum of a compound can be obtained with a sample less than 10 mg.

For many financial feasibility studies it is appropriate to consider interest periods of one year. However, financial agreements may call for interest to be compounded or paid more frequently, say quarterly, monthly, or even daily. Interest rates associated with more frequent compounding, say of quarterly interest periods, are usually stated as 8% compounded quarterly. ... 

Medical imaging interest which has increased the market and made large arrays financially feasible. Typical prices are now - 50- 100 per detector of size 1 cm x 1 cm X 2 mm thick (for large orders). 

Appointment of consultants for getting basic engineering document (the fees will be about 2.5. 0 % of project cost). The decision to go ahead can be taken if the BED indicates technical and financial feasibility,...
