phase 1 2017, npv 3.8b usd.
phase 2 2019, npv 1.24b usd (in 2017 dollars)
npv phaswe 1 & 2. 5.1b usd(in 2017 dollars)
15years
future value investment.
10% is the opportunity cost(ie, t-bills) - base year is 2017.
if 5.1b had been invested in t-bills ; is the opportunity cost.
5.1b at 10% would have future value of 21.3b usd in 15yrs.
5% would have fv of 10.6b usd in 15yrs.
at 5% annual payment would need to be 486m usd (total 7.3b usd).
at 10% annula payment 671m usd (total 10.1b usd).
revenues:
2021: total(133m usd)
2022: passenger(25m usd), cargo(148m usd), total(173m usd)
2023: total(187m usd)
but at 10% loan rate, we need 671m usd, but revenue is only 187m usd.
reveneu per tonne:
2021: 26.05usd/ton
2022: 26.43usd/ton
2023: 26.23usd/ton
soda-ash: 30% of tonnage.
What do we need to do to catch-up.
to meet 671m usd, tonnage required is;
(a) at 30usd/ton, (you need 10m tonnage to fund only the mombasa-nai phase) (u need you need 22.37m tonnage to cover whole mombasa-naivasha phase)
(b) at 50usd/ton, (u need 6m tonnage for phase 1) (u need 13.42m tonnage for both phases)
This means raising cost by 96%(26->50) and also raising tonnage by 96%(->13.42m tonnage).
saudi-arabia: is 70usd/tonnage. 50usd/tonnage is unexpected for a country at KE's scale.
