Help with this Debt Schedule for Project Finance

How do I go about this making a debt schedule given these sets of assumptions?


Financing Details

A bank will provide a project finance loan of up to 60% of the total project cost. The drawdown will be based on the actual project construction.

The loan tenor is up to 7 years from the drawdown date, inclusive of 16 months grace period on principal.

The principal repayment is payable in 30 equal quarterly amortizations with 25% balloon repayment due at maturity date. Principal repayment to commence after the grace period.

The company has to renew the ballooned balance for the remaining economic life of the project.

Cost of money for the loan and equity are 5% p.a. and 15% p.a. respectively.


Questions:

  1. How do I incorporate the drawdown in the model's debt schedule
  2. How do I amortize the principal repayment given the balloon repayment?
  3. How will the balloon repayment affect the cash flow and balance sheet.
  4. How would you go about making this schedule?
  5. Any online resources where I could learn how to make this

Thanks guys!

Revenue to net income is consolidated at holdco level. In CFFO you reverse net income contribution of opcos then add in distributions received from opcos (only impact they will have to CF statements). CFFI and CFFF exclude opco level capex/debt service. Then you just model like you would a normal company. Unlikely you would be investing cash in an opco that previously distributed you money. Also doesn't happen often between opcos that have entity-level debt (no cross guarantee) via parent holdco due to bankruptcy laws that might reverse or collapse those transactions.

First, I would suggest reducing cash dividends paid from the opcos to the holdco by a minimum cash balance needed on an opco level to sustain business / keep up with working capital requirements. The minimum cash balance of each opco can be calculated as a percentage of sales.

After debt on the holdco level is paid off your further actions really depend on whether or not the opcos are able to finance operations and capex on their own or need funding from the holdco. If your opcos can finance themself on their own I would think about starting to pay cash dividends to the holdcos shareholders.

Details, however, are deal specific. I hope this helps nevertheless.

Not sure what the issue is here. If you're looking to keep things driven by your monthly schedule then your annual schedule is really just a summarized reflection of your monthly schedule. Just pull beginning balance (Jan 1) and ending balance (Dec 31) and then sum your monthly principal and interest payments to show those on an annualized basis.

 

This is hardcoding the result which is pretty much a simple exercise - so for example, you are summing up all monthly interest amounts in 2016.

However, the trick here is to make it dynamic (not hardcoded) so for example interest in 2016 January is based on beg. balance Jan x interest rate Interest February is based on beg balance on February x interest rate So my question is, which i feel is impossible, is how to i make annualized debt schedule that will is dynamic and would calculate the total interest in 2016 Hope you got my point and the issue.

 

Lol not impossible and you're not hardcoding anything in the way I explained it. You keep your monthly schedule as is and reference it in your annual schedule. If you just want a standalone annual schedule that doesn't reference a monthly schedule, your best bet is to just use an average balance (of beg. and end balance) to calculate interest expense for the year.
