Even though your financial analysis complete there is still a lot of work to be done. Let me give you an overview of what you need to do. I’d like you to:

• Review your analysis of each project and decide which one to recommend.


• Create an outline of the presentation you will give to the client.


• Prepare and give the client presentation.

Make a Decision
As you’ve done your analysis, you may have been noticing how profitable each option might be, when their payoff points are and you may have even started forming some opinions about which one you think is best for the hospital. However, before you make a final decision, you should:

• Spend some time carefully going over each piece of your analysis. Which of the four options best fits the framework you developed after the stakeholder meeting?


• Decide if you are going to recommend that option based on your client’s framework or if you feel there are compelling reasons to make a different choice.

Once you decide which option you will recommend, spend some time outlining the reasons that support your decision, your reasoning will need to be clear when you present to the Hospital.

Prepare a Presentation
Next, you’ll need to prepare a presentation highlighting your choice. Your presentation should include:

1. The option you are recommending, including its:
   
   
   1. Revenue
   
   
   2. Costs
   
   
   3. Net Income
   
   
2. The demand figure on which you based your calculations


3. The Net Present Value – this part of the presentation should include a discussion of the Cost of Capital, as well as how the NPV of this option compares to the other investments


4. The Payoff Point – again be sure to present how the payoff point of the project you are recommending compares to the other options.

You’ve been putting together components of your final presentation all along; now it is just a matter of pulling them together. I look forward to seeing your presentation.
