Scenario:
An oil and gas company is developing a new offshore drilling platform. The estimated construction cost is $1 billion, and the company plans to finance 80% of the project through debt. The interest rate on the construction loan is 6%, and the construction period is 3 years.
Task:
1. **IDC Calculation:** * Debt Financing: $1 billion * 80% = $800 million * IDC: $800 million * 6% * 3 years = $144 million 2. **Impact on Profitability and ROI:** * The $144 million IDC adds to the project's initial investment, increasing it to $1.144 billion. * This higher initial investment will require higher revenue generation to reach profitability. * The ROI will be lower as the initial investment has increased, reducing the overall return on the investment. 3. **Strategies to Manage IDC:** * **Negotiate lower interest rates:** The company could negotiate a lower interest rate on the construction loan, directly reducing the IDC. * **Accelerate construction:** Reducing the construction period from 3 years to, for example, 2.5 years, would lower the overall interest accrued and, consequently, the IDC.
