Budget: 18000 UAH Deadline: 5 days
We will create a dynamic financial model in Excel or Google Sheets. The timeline is 5 working days, and the budget is 18,000 UAH for a working model with drivers, scenarios, P&L, Cash Flow, NPV, IRR, and monthly payback period.
There is an important nuance regarding the task - the model should not just calculate 1, 3, and 10 pods, but should properly account for the economies of scale in operating expenses. Therefore, I would include a separate assumptions block where one can change land rent, load, hourly rate, CAPEX, dollar exchange rate, variable and fixed costs. Without this, the table quickly turns into a makeshift calculator rather than a tool for the investor =)
I will clarify 2 points to avoid guessing:
> Is the CAPEX of one pod already known in dollars, or should a field be created for several configuration options?
> Are the operating expenses already listed, or do they need to be structured as part of the model - land rent, maintenance, cleaning, electricity, acquiring, marketing, depreciation?

The output will not just be a table, but a neat model where key parameters can be changed and the economics of the network can be seen. Overall, this is a normal first step before presenting to an investor or making a decision on a pilot, although I would also check the model's sensitivity to load and the dollar exchange rate - that’s usually where the most interesting insights are hidden.
