INTERNAL RATE OF RETURN

Sophisticated clients are most interested in these results. Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") takes into account the time value of money including how construction time impacts profitability.  Clients are better able to make a yes or no decision from these numbers.

Satisfy Structural Feasibility Requirements

Buildings must also satisfy structural feasibility requirements. If there are structural limitations the text "OVER-STRESSED MEMBERS = " will become bold red. If it does this should be explained to the client and action taken to correct the problem.
 

 FINANCIAL RESULTS 
COST SUMMARY and INVESTMENT ANALYSIS

The client knows best the business of marketing a building's space while the architect's expertise is design. This solicits the input and presence of both during use and the speed with which it responds makes it possible. The only result will be rapport and confidence.

The Financial Results form will excite the client. It enables a modeling of business or cost aspects of a building while the architect's preference is in physical shape. Together they maximize profitability.

Text boxes marked with a yellow background on the Financial Results form are particularly in the client's field of expertise.
