Abstract
A parametric model is presented for the evaluation of financing cost in a construction project. The cost can be assessed at a very early stage of the project's design. The main parameters that are examined are the duration of the project, its pattern of cost and sales distribution, the cost of owner's equity capital and of external debt. Three financing options are examined and their effect on the financing cost is evaluated. The influence on the cost of financing of the main decision variables, such as the construction duration or the profit margin, is also examined.

N.B. Descriptive scope is a count of how many of the five facets of empirical research are indicated by the words used in title, abstract and keywords. It is not intended as a judgement on the research; merely a count of the kind of word we would expect to indicate Phenomenon, Concepts, Theoretical framing, Empirical techniques, Analytical techniques. If all five are present, then a code of “5 PCTEA” will indicate this. If you feel the coding for this record is questionable, we welcome discussion around the terms we matched or the way we categorized them. The facet you would expect may not be coded, or a facet may be coded inappropriately. This can also bear on a larger question, of which facets should be treated as defining in construction management research. Please get in touch, and we will look at it. More details here
