Critical Negative Variables and Risks Wages and benefits may change as new bills come into play. Inflation is a factor, having been higher than usual in 2011 with escalation of fuel prices. Weather patterns – rains, less clients especially the mariner when it rains. Competition when it builds up. Political situation – elections 2016/7
11
Critical Positive variables Lakefront and people’s love for water Investment license: - 5 year tax break with investment license - purchases (a percentage of VAT (currently at 18%) is reimbursed Tourism figures steadily and significantly increasing as are expatriate staff working and living in country. The Oil industry – more jobs = more people with income to spend Enthusiasm for spa and leisure (including mariner)

Return on Investment Though with initial loss in the first year because of initial investment costs and fewer running days, it will start to generate profit the second year Profit momentum builds in the third year and the original investment can be paid off by the fourth year. High IRR allows for contingencies that are still being looked at. Having this buffer makes the feasibility of the project good.

In conclusion… Like anything, there are conditions and hard work that must be met, and challenges that must be overcome, but…. From the base business plan: a promising venture, and good investment. Good charismatic outlook. A definite potential winner!
