Why do the builders need to make a feasibility study?2. Can you name three

5、 costs of a construction project? The Costs in a Feasibility Study A feasibility study is the financial analysis of all the costs and income revenue that indicates whether a project will produce a profit. A feasibility study goes through several stages. The first stage uses approximated figures avai

6、lable at the time but further stages will require cost figures that have been confirmed and finalized.Reading A When preparing a feasibility study for a new construction project, the first point is likely to be the cost and availability of the land on which you propose to build. The tender, that is,

7、 the offer you make for the land, will also have a number of associated costs for items such as legal charges, stamp duty and utility charges, including transportation costs. There may be many other costs that will have to be considered.Reading A A further estimate will be required of the fees and a

8、ssociated costs for the building design. Bids from a number of architects will have been collected and the most cost-effective design selected. All these estimated costs must be added to the first stage of the feasibility report.Reading A The next major aspect to consider will be the construction co

9、sts. For example, if your project comprises ten town homes, you need to calculate how much it will cost for building materials, wages and insurance. Contractors will be asked for estimates and the most reliable and cost effective design selected, but it is wise, at this stage, to include an extra pe

10、rcentage, say 10%, for non-specified costs.Reading A This type of feasibility study will also include the likely estimated marketing costs, such as advertising, printing of brochures and sales commissions.Reading A Finally, depending on what percentage of the total cost will have to be borrowed, the

11、 cost of borrowing must be included. In other words, the total amount of interest on the loans will have to be paid, over the period until the buildings are sold.Reading A 可行性報(bào)告中的費(fèi)用可行性報(bào)告中的費(fèi)用 可行性報(bào)告是對項(xiàng)目的所有成本和總收入所做的財(cái)務(wù)可行性報(bào)告是對項(xiàng)目的所有成本和總收入所做的財(cái)務(wù)分析，用于判斷一個(gè)項(xiàng)目是否可以盈利。完成一份可行性分析，用于判斷一個(gè)項(xiàng)目是否可以盈利。完成一份可行性報(bào)告一般需要經(jīng)過幾個(gè)階段。

12、第一階段是利用當(dāng)時(shí)已有的報(bào)告一般需要經(jīng)過幾個(gè)階段。第一階段是利用當(dāng)時(shí)已有的大致數(shù)據(jù)，而后面的階段是當(dāng)各項(xiàng)成本數(shù)據(jù)都最終確定以大致數(shù)據(jù)，而后面的階段是當(dāng)各項(xiàng)成本數(shù)據(jù)都最終確定以后進(jìn)行。后進(jìn)行。 Reading A 當(dāng)為一個(gè)新的建筑項(xiàng)目準(zhǔn)備可行性報(bào)告時(shí)，首先要考當(dāng)為一個(gè)新的建筑項(xiàng)目準(zhǔn)備可行性報(bào)告時(shí)，首先要考慮可能是能否取得該項(xiàng)目用地以及用地費(fèi)用。投標(biāo)價(jià)格，慮可能是能否取得該項(xiàng)目用地以及用地費(fèi)用。投標(biāo)價(jià)格，即為獲得土地開出的價(jià)格，也包含其他相關(guān)費(fèi)用，如法律即為獲得土地開出的價(jià)格，也包含其他相關(guān)費(fèi)用，如法律費(fèi)用、印花稅和公共事業(yè)收費(fèi)，如交通費(fèi)等。另外可能還費(fèi)用、印花稅和公共事業(yè)收費(fèi)，如交通費(fèi)等。另外可

14、發(fā)放工資、支付保險(xiǎn)費(fèi)用。承包商需要對此進(jìn)行估算，而最可靠最合算的方案將入選。要注意的是，在行估算，而最可靠最合算的方案將入選。要注意的是，在一些階段，明智的做法是對與不確定的成本，應(yīng)留出一些階段，明智的做法是對與不確定的成本，應(yīng)留出10%10%左右的盈余。左右的盈余。Reading A 可行性研究也包括預(yù)估的營銷費(fèi)用，如廣告、宣傳冊可行性研究也包括預(yù)估的營銷費(fèi)用，如廣告、宣傳冊印刷和銷售回扣。印刷和銷售回扣。 最后，根據(jù)總費(fèi)用中的需要借貸的比例來計(jì)算借貸的最后，根據(jù)總費(fèi)用中的需要借貸的比例來計(jì)算借貸的成本。換句話說，在建筑出售前一共需要償還多少貸款利成本。換句話說，在建筑出售前一共需要償還多少
