Chapter Chapter 12 in Project Analysis in Developing Countries, 2023, pp 367-386 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The techniques discussed in the earlier chapters apply to analyses in both economic and financial terms and both types of analysis are required. While this book focuses principally on economic analysis, the economic viability of projects depends on the financial sustainability of the management unit implementing and operating the project. The economic benefits will occur only if the financial resources are available to undertake the investment and maintain project operations. Project analysis at economic prices to judge whether an investment is worthwhile must be accompanied by an analysis at financial prices. For revenue generating projects, the financial return of the project must be compared with its financial obligations in order to assess its financial sustainability. Financial sustainability is taken up in the first section of this chapter.
