"Key Figures" tab

Premises

The calculation of the investment key figures is based on the premises defined in the project. The following premises are shown in FACTON:

SOP - Start of production
EOP - End of production
SOI - Start of investment
EOI - End of investment
Total quantity
Net present value date
Interest rate
Conform interest rate
Interest periods

Static Investment Calculation

Key Figure (Abbreviation)	Description
Revenue (R)	The revenue is determined by the monthly sales prices and is converted into the project currency.
Product costs (PC)	The product costs are determined by the monthly product costs. They are converted into the project currency. The monthly product costs are constant throughout the considered year
Profit (P)	The profit equals the difference from revenues and costs.
Investments (INV)	Investments represent the sum of all defined expenses over additional costs and machines over project lifetime. They are converted into the project currency.
Return on investment (ROIs)	Return on investment equals the quotient of profit and investment in %.
Total pay in (TPI)	The total pay in represents the sum of revenue and direct payments.
Total pay out (TPI)	The total pay in represents the sum of investments and costs.
Free cash flow	The free cash flow represents the difference between cash revenue and cash expenses. Investments are already taken into account in the cash expenses.
Static amortization (AmoDs)	The static amortization period equals the average overplus amount of periods divided by the investments without considering the interest on capital. Is specified in years [a].

An amortization period under 0 is not shown. A line is shown instead.

Dynamic Investment Calculation

Key Figure (Abbreviation)	Description
Net present value (NPV)	The net present value (capital value) is calculated based on the net present value and the period overplus amount which are discounted by the conform interest rate. No discount is made within the period that is directly defined by the net present value.
Internal nominal interest rate	The internal interest rate is the interest for which the capital value is 0. Monthly and annual interest periods are considered.
Internal rate of return (IRR)	The internal rate of return is a discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash flows equal to zero.
Dynamic amortization (AmoDd)	The dynamic amortization period equals the number of periods from SOI until the present value is 0 or until the cumulated overplus number of periods changing from negative to positive. Is specified in years [a].

Description

Net present value

(NPV)

The net present value (capital value) is calculated based on the net present value and the period overplus amount which are discounted by the conform interest rate. No discount is made within the period that is directly defined by the net present value.

Internal nominal interest rate

The internal interest rate is the interest for which the capital value is 0. Monthly and annual interest periods are considered.

Internal rate of return

(IRR)

The internal rate of return is a discount rate that makes the net present value of all cash flows equal to zero.

Dynamic amortization

(AmoDd)

The dynamic amortization period equals the number of periods from SOI until the present value is 0 or until the cumulated overplus number of periods changing from negative to positive.

Is specified in years [a].

Table for Key Figures and Cash Flow

The multi-level table comprises all key figure and cash flow data of the individual projects. The table is equal to the table in the Batch Data Administration > Table of projects (level 1).
