Question

Imagine that you own (250,000$) and you want to invest it in your dream plan. estimate the initial cost and the annual cash flow details (operation and maintenance costs, raw material, salaries, overheads, profits …etc.).(draw the cash flow)

Note: you don’t need to consume the 250,000$, any cheaper investments are fine. Any larger investment is allowable under loan consideration or suitable explanation.

It’s like a mini feasibility study but you only have to calculate the rate of return

Note: put your solution in two printed pages.
