I. EXCUTIVE SUMMARY
The purpose and scope of this proposal study is to introduce the subject matter
and provide a general idea and information on the said area. All the material
included in this document is based on data gathered from various sources and is
based on certain assumptions. Although, due care and diligence has been taken to
compile this document, the contained information may vary due to any change in
any of the concerned factors, and the actual results may differ substantially from
the presented information.

Total land requirement for the envisaged plant is 2,300 square meters. Total
built-up of the project is 1500 square meters. Total cost of building at the rate of
Birr 3550 per square meter is estimated to be Birr 5,324,800

The total investment requirement is estimated at about Birr 10,400,000, and the
firm will create employment opportunities for 7 persons.

The project is financially viable with an internal rate of return (IRR) of 23% and a
net present value (NPV) of Birr 15 million discounted at 8.5%.The project has a
forward linkage effect with food industries.

The project is expected to be financed 25% (birr 2,600,000 mil. by owners equity
of the total investment cost and the remaining 75 (birr 7,800,000 mil.) will be
covered from the bank loan to be repaid within five years of operation in 12
months repayment. The loan is expected to be released on January 1, 2023 with
one year grace period.
Based on the projected profit and loss statement, the project will generate a profit
beginning from first year of operation. Annual net profit after tax will grow from
birr 40 million to Birr 62 million during the life of the project. Moreover, at the

end of the project life the accumulated cash flow amounts to Birr 4 bil.

In financial analysis the financial ratios and efficiency ratios are used as an index
or yardstick for evaluating the financial position of a firm. It is also an indicator
for the strength and weakness of the firm or a project. Using the year-end balance
sheet figures and other relevant data, the most important ratios such as return on
sales which is computed by dividing net income by revenue, return on assets
(operating income divided by assets), return on equity (net profit divided by equity)
and return on total investment (net profit plus interest divided by total investment)
has been carried out over the period of the project life and all the results are found
to be satisfactory.
The break-even analysis establishes a relationship between operation costs and
revenues. It indicates the level at which costs and revenue are in equilibrium. To
this end, the break-even point of the project including cost of finance when it
starts to operate at full capacity (year 10) is estimated by using income statement
projection. Therefore it accounts to be 12%.
The payback period, also called pay – off period is defined as the period required
recovering the original investment outlay through the accumulated net cash flows
earned by the project. Accordingly, based on the projected cash flow it is estimated
that the project’s initial investment will be fully recovered within 4 years.

1. INTRODUCTION
Ethiopia is now becoming more and more investment friendly country. The
Government is creating favorable condition that would highly encourage the
private Sector to be engaged in almost all areas of the economy. The country with
population of come 103 million offers significant domestic market for locally for
locally produced goods and service the country is also a member of the common
Market for eastern and southern Africa Comesa offering huge benefit of Exporting
commodities in preferential tariff rates to a wider regional market.
Privet investment should be encouraged to increase form year to year and
Investment constraints have to be alleviated in order to pave Development ways so
that investment sector happens to be Determinant about factor of economic
development of the country like Ethiopia. It is usually considered as the engine of
the economy .both private and government Bodies in many ways have commonly
agreed this idea .economic development in Any case needs both efforts of the
privet as well as the public sector. There are Investments that could not be
undertaken by privet sector due to its difficult nature I .e high initial capital and
long gestation period.
However, the passed command economy system and the lack of experience
between both sides have made it so hard for a private sector to flourish. But now a

day as Ethiopia follows free market economy ‘the roll of private sector for the
achievement of the economy policy. Accordingly, the Ethiopia federal democratic
government is encouraging investors to invest their records to contribute to the
development of the country in all sectors by avoiding all barriers and facilitating
all the mince for the investment

1.1. HOTEL AND TOURISM SECTOR IN ETHIOPIA


Ethiopia has vast potential for development of various economic sectors and
agriculture is the mainstay of the country’s economy the opportunity to invest in
other sectors especially in Hotel, Tourism and various recreation activities are
there. Although Ethiopia is endowed with many natural and manmade tourist
Attractions, these resources have not been sufficiently exploited. The Country’s
geographical location and the remarkable physical features and climate have
endorsed it with rich and varied natural heritages. Despite considerable demand,
tourism sector remains at relatively low stage of development.
The Hotel and recreation service facilities in Ethiopia have been found at a lower
level of development. The number of Hotel service establishments in the
country has remained insignificant to respond to the customer’s demand.
Only few Hotels have the capacity or quality to provide good
accommodation and catering facilities to fulfill tourists need. There are only few
hotels in the capital, Addis Ababa, and other big towns of the region states
that organized on international standard to fulfill the consumer’s Needs.

The government of Ethiopia has devised a long term strategy that gives due
regard to the preservation, development and promotion of the country’s
tourist attraction. This includes plan for expansion of tourist facilities and the
necessary infrastructure.

Indeed in the wider sense the country has a good potential for the
development of high standard hotels, recreation and market center and there
is a growing realization that this sector holds a significant development
perspective, which should be fully exploited in the planned and controlled
manner.

Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
In adopting a planned and regulated approach the country is in a position to
expand its hotel and tourism sector in a way that emphasizes environmental
conservation and enhances the quality of the overall tourist experience. This will
contribute substantially towards improving the standard of living and the
quality of life of the population.

The past trend shows that most of the high standard hotels and recreation
centers are concentrated in the capital, Addis Ababa. The number of hotels and
recreation service facilities in other regions of the country has remained
insignificant to respond to the customers demand. Only few hotels and
recreation centers out of Addis Ababa have the capacity to provide
Accommodation for mid or high-class guests.

By taking this encouraging as an opportunity the promoter project plan to


establish 3 star international/tourist Hotel service in sendafa bake town
administration for the benefit of the promoter, the district community as well
as the country as a whole.

According to the preliminary market research, the demand for hotel service is
very high and yet the supply is limited leaving a huge service gap to the
customer. Unfortunately there is no saturated standard hotel (3 stars) in the
area. Although few less than five star hotels have already working in the area,
but still huge gap is there in between demand and supply in the town. The
service (3 star hotels) is widely accepted in Sendafa Government employees,
Private employees, Tourists, local customers, and to some extent even in rich
house-holds. So there is good scope for establishing the units for establishing and
maintain 3 star standard /international and tourist hotel service in the town as
well as in the country. Due to this, it has become imperative to build and
maintain 3 star standard hotels service for the mankind in prevailing conditions.

1.3. THE PROJECT


1.3.1. PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION

International standard tourist hotel is high class hotel (from three to five- star

level) where services like bedroom, catering, meeting rooms,
multipurpose assembly hall, swimming pool, Spa (Hot Spring), gymnasium,
sauna and massage, other sports facilities like tennis or squash court, min- golf
or badminton, bowling, table tennis and children playground, night club with
dancing to live music or discotheque or cabaret etc.

A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging on a short-term basis.

Facilities provided may range from a modest-quality mattress in a small room


to large suites with bigger, higher-quality beds, a dresser, a refrigerator
and other kitchen facilities, upholstered chairs, a flat screen television and en-
suite bathrooms. Small, lower-priced hotels may offer only the most basic guest
services and facilities. Larger, higher-priced hotels may provide additional guest
facilities such as a swimming pool, business center (with computers, printers and
other office equipment), childcare, conference and event facilities, tennis or
basketball courts, gymnasium, restaurants, day spa and social function
services. Hotel rooms are usually numbered (or named in some smaller hotels
and B&Bs) to allow guests to identify their room. Some boutique, high-end
hotels have custom decorated rooms. Some hotels offer meals as part of a room
and board arrangement. In the United Kingdom, a hotel is required by law to
serve food and drinks to all guests within certain stated hours. In Japan,
capsule hotels provide a tiny room suitable only for sleeping and shared
bathroom facilities.

1.3.2. PROJECT OBJECTIVE


The main objective of the project is aimed at to maximize the return on
invested capital in the form of profit for the promoter. However, its
implementation will benefit the employee, the consumer society and the
government at different levels. In this respect the project is aimed to
promote the following main objectives:-

2. MARKET STUDY AN PLANT PROSPECT

2.1. GENERAL OVERVIEW


The economic vitality of the market area and neighborhood surrounding the
subject site is an important consideration in forecasting lodging demand and
future income potential. Economic and demographic trends that reflect the
amount of visitation provide a basis from which to project lodging demand.
The purpose of the market area analysis is to review available economic and
demographic data to determine whether the local market will undergo economic
growth, stabilize, or decline. In addition to predicting the direction of the economy,
the rate of change must be quantified. These trends are then correlated based on
their propensity to reflect variations in lodging demand, with the objective of
forecasting the amount of growth or decline in visitation by individual market
segment, i.e. commercial, meeting and group, and leisure.

The hotel industry consists of many different services, including


accommodation, restaurants, and cafes and catering. The market for the hotel
industry, especially classified hotels in a developing country like
Ethiopia, is closely linked to the tourism industry, because a majority of
consumers for the sector services come from international tourists.

According to the United Nations Statistical Commission, Tourism

11
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
comprises the activities of persons traveling to and staying in places
outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year and
staying at least 24 hours in the country visited.

The total number of international tourists arriving in Ethiopia is steadily


increasing. The highest number of tourist arrival is in 2005 i.e. 227.4
thousand. As can be seen from Table 3.3, during the period 1991-2005 except
for the decline observed in year 1998, the number of tourists visiting the
country was consistently growing. The growth rate registered varies from year
to year; the lowest was in 1992 (2%) and the highest in 1997 (27.7%). However,
on average during the period under consideration tourist arrivals have been
increasing by about 8 % per annum.

According to the information obtained from the Ministry of Culture and Tourism,
the total number of hotels in Ethiopia is 373 and rooms and beds are computed to
reach 10,930 and 14,535, respectively in year 2019.

In case of star hotels, the total number at national level is 58 with the capacity of
3,405 rooms and about 5,116 beds, while in Addis Ababa there are 28 star hotels
and 2,282 rooms and 3,294 beds. The remaining 29 hotels in Addis Ababa are
recommended - to - tourist hotels that may be grouped in the near future to the
star rating system upon upgrading their services to the level of the required
international standard.
Regarding existing hotel capacity, projected and unsatisfied demand
projection, in passengers Arrival in 2019 and 2020 are expected to reach 667,912
and 1669780 respectively whereas, Room Night Demand will be reached 1803363 in
2020.but Existing Hotels Capacity is estimated only 597,140 rooms.
Therefore, Un Satisfied Demand=1,803,363(room demand) less 597,140
(existing rooms capacity) =1,930,175 rooms shows demand gap in the country
and according to the information gathered it indicate that in Lega Tafo, and its
surrounding there are inadequate of hotels , rooms and beds.

2.2. MARKETING STRATEGY


As discussed earlier the major target groups of hotel sector are tourists who
12
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.

Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
arrives the country for business, leisure, conference and other purposes.

Providing quality services and consistently improving with the changing


situations should be the promoters’ objective. Hence, according to the
feasibility study, the promoter has the following marketing strategies:

Contacting government and private agencies affiliated with tourism on a


regular basis, informing them of any corporate rate, discount
programs, availability of services, etc.
Emphasizing the access of the proposed hotel to support client’s
attractions, as well as the services and amenities available.
Special effort will be made to emphasize the price-value relationship of the
service available.
Actively marketing the hotel prior to the completion and opening.
An aggressive local marketing effort and promotion of the hotel market to
enable the hotel to capture a more than proportionate share of support
within the market.
Working with local people to establish a competitive amenity package
responsive to specific requirements.

3. TECHNICAL STUDY

3.1. DESIGN AND PARTICULARS


The project owner interest, as regards to how the overall building design looks
like and the level of service to be rendered by the envisaged project, is dependent
on the area at which the buildings to be placed. The owner has already decided
to commit himself to construct a three star hotel having the full knowledge what
is required by the national and international standard of Hotels in Ethiopia. The
standard by the way its exhaustiveness as well as being explicitly specific on
the level of the service expected under the selected category, determines also
the physical and financial requirement of the project. Hence, in effect the
contents of project components to be described below are the derivatives of the
requirements mentioned above.

3.2. PHYSICAL APPEARANCE


The hotel would have G + 8 building placed on an area of 6000 m2. The
architecture of the buildings are influenced by the modern design setting
holding the characters of attracting customers from out ward and allowing the
maximum comfort it can provide from service point of view. Apart from the need
to add a new look within the locality, exterior of the building will be dominated by
a glass panel at the strategic corners to provide a maximum opportunity for

14
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
guest to have, a look at the important land escape/scenery of the area.

The outer space is allocated to have an open garden, children’s playing


ground, parking area, fountains and inter campus paving with a medium size
swimming pool adjoining the front side of the buildings.

3.3. CORE FACILITIES


The envisaged hotel should have sufficient and comfortable space to
accommodate the core services as per the requirements of the three star
hotels. Actually this has been considered seriously at the design stage of the
building along with the allocation of appropriate area and placement of each
components with the building accordingly. On the other hand, it is also
important to figure out the layout of each component not only from the
perspective of having compliance for the standard but for the benefit
exploring possibilities of bringing complementary services under the same
location and allow maximum convenience in the work processes. The size (area) of
each service, which will be explained below, determine the holding capacity of
guests as it determines the level and quality of service. Other than the critical
factors mentioned above the market aspect i.e. Customers need and resource
availability is considered in which case they are the determinants to give the final
set up of the facilities.

(a) Bed rooms


A total of 80 classes are allotted for room services with options to avail two
different types of Accommodations. In the interest of following the
trend in the Industry single and double Bedrooms. Actually the
Standard requires allowing Maximum 30% from the total while the rest
can remain with double bed rooms or any other smaller rooms. On the bases
of the above considerations under this component, the hotel will have 50 single,
20 double and 10 suit king bed rooms.

(b) Bars
Standard three star hotels must have at least one bar with a superior

15
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
comfort and service quality. The furniture and equipment’s, as being the basic
sources of customer’s attractions, need to be fashionable of higher quality
commensurate with the expectation of guests who happen to prefer is class.
Therefore, the envisaged hotel, having the requirements considered too,
will have one main bar at the ground floor adjoining the reception area.
Another bar preferably with smaller space but furnished with cozy furniture will be
placed at top floor of the building. This is just to add another attractive look for
the hotel as it will be placed at a strategic location for customer to have a
panoramic view of the area. The minimum carrying capacity of the bars is
estimated 200 persons per day.

(c) Main restaurant


Technically a hotel to be classified under Five stars of as such this one must
have at least two dining places having the size proportional to the guests who
have checked in as normally customers do not prefer to worry about going out
once they have settled. The area determination has to take into account this.
Hence, the hotel must provide the maximum range of varieties at all times.

The hotel will have the capacity entertaining 200 guests and allow
maximum efficiency in the service by having the restaurant located nearer to the
main kitchen.

(d) Banquet/Conference hall

A hotel with three stars needs to have a conference/banquet hall of larger area
which can be used for banquet or conference interchangeably. This project
considers this component as the second important function next to the room
services as this area has a higher potential for such services. The holding
capacity of the main conference hall will be 500 persons.

E .Business center (mini market shop)


A three star hotel needs to have also a business center with the service that
would the customers need. For such a service, the envisaged project will
allocate a relatively bigger area preferably separate rooms at the ground floor.

16
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
Rooms are allocated to secretarial service, executive rooms for business
meeting and shopping corners. The secretarial service will be furnished with
all the machines and equipment to handle any business enquiry that may be
raised by hotel guests. The shopping corner also accommodates mini
boutique, cosmetics and d/t type of shop

F. Supports

Kitchen

Two kitchens, with the processes of multiple varieties of food preparation and a
proportional capacity to handle the maximum guests to be served in the main
restaurant as well as in banquet hall, is the critical requirement for the
proposed hotel. It should be large enough also to accommodate the working
areas of cold and hot meals on the one hand and pastries and bakery on the
other.

In order to allow reasonable space for workers to move around as well as to avoid
the possibility of contamination and spoilage, the pastries and bakery will be
placed at the nearest door joining the main buffet at the gate of the restaurant.
On the other hand, the kitchen should be provided with a space to add a small
store with a flexible structure to contain butchery and cold rooms. These are
critical for easy facilitation of cooking’s. Moreover, the kitchen will have a well-
connected washing corner with at most margin of clearance to make the area
safe and clean.

h. Power House

For the service of the hotel to continue uninterrupted, a power house is


already planned to be placed in the underground or back to the building.
Hence, the power house will be supplied with a genera l planned to be fixed for
emergency service.

g. store

Alike the capacity projection made on the kitchen, the envisaged project

17
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
requires a store as big as the varieties of items that are needed to be kept as stock.
The store will need to have a systematic management for stocks properly
placed and identified at the time of delivery and inventory. Hence, it is the required
procedure to organize the stock items in separate sections so that the pro per
handling of stocks shall be maintained. In view of this, the hotel requires a
number of stores with sections for food items, beverage, glass wares, silver
wares, soft furnishings, cleaning and sanitary materials, stationery materials all
placed according to their physical appearances. The store will be placed in
locations nearer to kitchen or leisure service.

Car Parking

The hotel must provide the service of car parking with 24 hours protection at
least for those customers who have checked in. Again, it should be large enough
to accommodate as many vehicles as the hotel is going to entertain a large crowd.
In view of this, a parking space for about 17 vehicles I planned to be
allocated with the standard width and height of the drive in routes.

3.4. Hotel Furniture and Equipment’s


Furniture and equipment required to furnish the envisaged hotel depend on the
space to be available as well as on the quality and volume of service to be
rendered. Normally the quantity required will also depend on the standard
of the hotel i.e. Five star hotel. To the extent that the engineering design of the
building align with the requirements of the standard, the projection of
furniture and equipment’s has to be consistent with the size and number of
rooms, bars, restaurants and leisure center. However, one has to be realistic in
the sense that the forecasting trend to link with the technical feasibility
particularly with that of the envisaged service capacity.

Moreover, the balance to be between image building and income generation


capacity has the same level of influence as said above.

Therefore, for this particular category of forecasting two levels of


considerations are taken into account. One, by the fact that the design of

18
TEAM: business and investment project consultancy service plc.
Email.dinkuabera4@gmail.com
Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
building directly determines the space available for every item, size will be
governed by this and again the quality required furniture will determine base
on the kinds of facilities available. In any case the required quantities are
forecasted based on the components stated below:

80 bed rooms,

o 10 king size luxury bed rooms

O 20 standard Double bedrooms

o 50 standard Single bed rooms

Special Bar and cafeteria

Traditional and international restaurant

conference rooms,

Massage room

Sauna and steam bath room

Physical fitness room

Night club (dancing area)

Indoor and outdoor game facilities,

Management office and store,


Other civil works including land escaping, parking area,
fountains and inter campus paving.
Secondly, in order to fulfill the basic requirements of hotel service, the
quantities forecasted for the above facilities have to be reviewed against the
national standard. Such consideration gives the benefit of consciously
sorting out what item goes with what kind of facility or service. Once this is
determined the forecast of quantity will follow accordingly. The project detail
design work has already been undertaken and the planned facilities of the
project and the required quantities are forecasted in section 5.

4.5. Plant capacity and production program
As the number of population increase the need to use resort service will increases.
The demand for social service will be satisfied by the establishment of the modern
recreational center. In addition, the availability of hotel the proposed area and it is
surrounding is not satisfactory compared to the high demanded service. On the
other hand, the availability of electricity, road and water in the area will encourage
investors to involve in such development activities. This is one of the reasons that
the project owner is interested to invest in resort development.

From the market study, it is observed that there is a great demand gap between
the demand and supply of standard hotel service. Therefore, taking in to account
the market study and economic scale of service provision the envisaged hotel will
have capacities of hotel bed rooms, and supermarket.

4.6. Promotion
The promotion policy aims to communicate and present the hotel, value it and
create interest in the customers, building a customer relationship as well as gain
some notoriety in the market. At the beginning, the hotel will invest in the
meaningful and necessary means of communication, in order not to incur in
unnecessary costs, adapting its strategy to future potential needs.
Thus, there will be defined some communication actions both above the line
(media)and below the line. For the first group – publicity/communication in the
media – the hotel will invest in its presence in internet, since this is an immediate,
simple, customizable, and accessible tool that has been increasingly used by
travelers to find information and book hotels. Concerning the actions below the line,
they will be done mainly at a Public Relations level.
Furthermore, communication actions will be used through Direct and Relationship
Marketing that intends to communicate directly to the customer through
personalized emails or newsletters, presenting a set of contents that are related to
customers’ preferences. It will be sent to customers according to the database
analysis and the conducted surveys, in order to understand the identified needs

and challenges of the market while striving to incorporate customer feedback in
order to improve its products and services.

4. MATERIALS AND INPUTS


4.1. Utilities
The utilities required for the service provision are electricity for lighting, for
running of facility and equipment, and cold water for all services available,
gardening, drinking, etc. The hotel also needs telephone for both local and
international communication including Internet service and LPG gas for various
kitchens, diesel and petrol fuel for diesel generators and for running vehicles.

4.2. Electricity
Since no machinery will be used in the firm, the consumption will be only for
obtaining light and some office work. Thus the consumption is estimated at 3
kWh, and the total energy requirement for 8 hours a day is estimated at 24 kWh
per day. Hence, in 365 days the total annual consumption will be 8,760 kWh.

4.3. Water
Water is used for cleaning and drinking in the project. The total water
consumption will about 425 m3 annually.

achieve greater uptake of potential customers. Thus, it is vital to minimize the
initial investment, being the cost of the building a factor to take into consideration
in decision-making. On the other hand, it is important to take into account the
features of the building, such as the net internal area and the number of rooms.

5.2.2.. Construction costs


The establishment of the project is initiated by the cost of building and
construction. This is started by land preparation and site clearing up to
construction. The estimated cost for this work including utility connections and
disposal structures 5,324,800

Even if the initiation of the project is from building and construction, the most and
backbone of the project is equipment. The costs of this equipment are not fixed. It
depends on the world market price, because the cost of equipment is always
fluctuating. In the table 4 it can be seen the chosen equipment as well as their
prices, suppliers and life cycle. It is crucial to underline that the suppliers are
selected based on their price, quality and credibility. The following table 4 shows

to be repaid within three years of operation in 12 months repayment. The loan is
expected to be released on january1, 2022 with one year grace period.
 5% Depreciation for building accounts.
 10% furniture and equipment depreciation
 20% for the vehicle depreciation
Tax holiday is considered for the first operating years.
35% taxi income from net income starting from the first year.
Interest rate on bank loan is considered to be 8.5%.

7.5.2. Profitability
Based on the projected profit and loss statement, the project will generate a profit
beginning from first year of operation. Annual net profit after tax will grow from

Birr 406419948 million to Birr 6.2 million during the life of the project. Moreover,
at the end of the project life the accumulated cash flow amounts to Birr 4 million.

7.5.3. Ratios
In financial analysis financial ratios and efficiency ratios are used as an index or
yardstick for evaluating the financial position of a firm. It is also an indicator for
the strength and weakness of the firm or a project. Using the year-end balance
sheet figures and other relevant data, the most important ratios such as return on
sales which is computed by dividing net income by revenue, return on assets
(operating income divided by assets), return on equity (net profit divided by equity)
and return on total investment (net profit plus interest divided by total investment)
has been carried out over the period of the project life and all the results are found
to be satisfactory.
7.5.4.. Break-even Analysis
The break-even analysis establishes a relationship between operation costs and
revenues. It indicates the level at which costs and revenue are in equilibrium. To
this end, the break-even point of the project including cost of finance when it
starts to operate at full capacity (year 10) is estimated by using income statement
projection.

Breakeven point analysis (BEPA) = Fixed Cost = 12 %
Sales – Variable Cost
7.5.5. Payback Period
The payback period, also called pay – off period is defined as the period required
recovering the original investment outlay through the accumulated net cash flows
earned by the project. Accordingly, based on the projected cash flow it is estimated
that the project’s initial investment will be fully recovered within 4 years.
7.5.6. Internal Rate of Return

The internal rate of return (IRR) is the annualized effective compounded return
rate that can be earned on the invested capital, i.e., the yield on the investment.
Put another way, the internal rate of return for an investment is the discount rate
that makes the net present value of the investment's income stream total to zero.
It is an indicator of the efficiency or quality of an investment. A project is a good
investment proposition if its IRR is greater than the rate of return that could be
earned by alternate investments or putting the money in a bank account.
Accordingly, the IRR of this porject is computed to be 23 % indicating the
vaiability of the project.

7.5.7. Net Present Value

Net present value (NPV) is defined as the total present ( discounted) value of a time
series of cash flows. NPV aggregates cash flows that occur during different periods
of time during the life of a project in to a common measuring unit i.e. present
value. It is a standard method for using the time value of money to appraise
long-term projects. NPV is an indicator of how much value an investment or
project adds to the capital invested. In principal a project is accepted if the NPV is
non-negative.

Accordingly, the net present value (NPV) of the project at 8.5% discount rate is
found to be Birr 15 million which is acceptable.
7.5.8.. Economic Benefits

Mob.0911445382/0947379692/0937638691
The project will generate 21.to 33 million in terms of tax revenue in consecutive
production years. The project creates employment for 7 persons. In addition to
supply of the domestic needs, the project will generate Birr has a forward linkage
effect with food industries.

7.5.9. Environmental and Social Impact Assessment

The protection of environment gives significant attention in Ethiopia’s major policy


and legislative document including the constitution and the national
environmental policy. The new economic policy adopted by the government is
envisaged to encourage the acceleration of local and foreign industrial, agricultural
as well as service economic sectors of the country. Having these in mind the
project promoter will prepare detail environmental impact assessment with the
mitigations as soon as the land is permitted.

In addition, proper monitoring and follow up mechanisms will be made during


construction and production as far as impact of the project is concerned.

7. Conclusion

The current investment code of Ethiopian government is facilitating and


encouraging private investment through provision of a package of incentives
including import duty exceptions, availing of land for investment activities and
legal protection of property rights. Mr. Shibiru Gurmu is planning to establish his
own three stars hotel in Oromia Regional state, special zone of surrounding
Finfnnee in Sendafa bake town administration.

Based on financial, economic and marketing analysis, the project is found to be


operationally profitable and has significant socio-economic benefits for the country
in general and the promoter in particular. In addition, it is considered to create
employment opportunity for a number of citizens and generate income for the
project owner and contribute to government tax revenue. Therefore, the promoter
of the project has made necessary preparation to establish the project hopping
