Development Feasibility Calculator

Why Development Feasibility Matters

A Development Feasibility Study helps determine whether a project — real estate, product, or business — is worth pursuing before significant resources are committed.

How to Use This Calculator

Enter the estimated Net Present Value (NPV), Return on Investment (ROI), and a Market Demand score (1–10). The tool combines these factors into a single feasibility score to guide your decision.

The Feasibility Formula

Each input is normalized to a 1–10 scale to ensure balanced weighting. A score above 7 suggests high feasibility, while below 5 indicates high risk.

Example Use Cases

• Real Estate: Assess if a new housing development will be profitable.
• Product Launch: Evaluate if a tech product will succeed in the market.
• Business Expansion: Decide whether to open a new location.

Key Considerations

• NPV: Higher values indicate better long-term profitability
• ROI: Should exceed cost of capital and alternative investments
• Market Demand: Subjective but critical — validate with research
• Risk Adjustment: Consider volatility, competition, and execution risk
• Sensitivity Analysis: Test different assumptions for key variables

Next Steps After Evaluation

• ✅ Conduct detailed market research
• ✅ Perform competitive analysis
• ✅ Create a comprehensive business plan
• ✅ Secure necessary funding or approvals
• ✅ Develop a phased implementation strategy
