Does a small electric fleet create enough cash to justify the investment?

The case connects the fleet’s operating capacity to sales, material costs, direct labor, permits, tax incentives, depreciation, and free cash flow. It is a practical investment decision with both financial and operating constraints.

The value comes from the timing: a heavy initial outlay, followed by recurring FCFF and a modeled salvage value. NPV makes that timing visible at an 8.5% WACC.

Builds a bridge from unit economics to NPV.

The budget sheets feed the NPV schedule, giving the investment committee a path to challenge volume, price escalation, labor, permit cost, tax credit timing, and terminal assumptions one by one.
