Financials: Planning/ Spans

Revenue, Cost & Funding spans tools including funding allocation and split funding for costs.

Updated over 2 months ago

Feasly has reimagined how you apply cashflow spans. Instead of entering spans when running a first cut feaso, you can complete the revenue, costs and funding spans in the financials section.

This streamlined approach saves time and powers Feaslyโ€™s automated financial reports.

๐Ÿ“Œ The revenue, costs & funding section in finacials must be completed to unlock and generate your reports.


๐Ÿ” How it Works

In each section:

  • Red fields = missing start month, span, or allocation.

  • Green fields = complete and ready.

  • Known dates will auto-fill.

  • Actual dates? Use the calendar icon to enter specific dates.

Example: Red fields = missing start month, span or funding allocation.
โ€‹

Example: Green fields = complete and good to go.

๐ŸŸฉ Planning: Revenue


Step 1: Enter Revenue Spans

Enter the start month and span for each revenue item.

  • Feasly auto-fills known spans where possible.

  • You can update or override any time.

  • Agent fees and conveyancing costs remitted on settlement will auto-align with the related lot sale.

  • ๐Ÿ“Œ Red = missing information. Green = complete.

Step 2: Check Sales-to-Debt Coverage

This tool helps you confirm that sales proceeds (and timing) are sufficient to cover debt repayments.
โ€‹

Feasly automatically includes all debt facilities and any loans set to โ€œrepay from net sales proceeds.โ€
โ€‹
It applies the debt waterfall and calculates:

  • Sales Proceeds to Repay Debt:
    Sales revenue minus sales costs due at settlement (e.g. Agent Fees, Conveyancing).
    โ€‹

  • Repayment Timing:
    The estimated month debt can be repaid from available proceeds.
    โ€‹

  • Outstanding Balance:
    Should equal $0 if proceeds fully cover repayment obligations.


๐ŸŸจ Planning: Costs

Step 1: Enter Cost Spans

Enter the start month, span and funding allocation for each project cost item.

  • Feasly auto-fills known spans where possible.

  • ๐Ÿ“Œ Red = missing information. Green = complete.

In Funding Allocation, you can split funding sources โ€” helpful when debt funding begins partway through.
โ€‹

Example: Progress Payment 2 is the point where debt funding begins

Step 2: Check Cost-Funding Coverage

This tool helps you confirm that all project costs are fully covered by available debt or equity funding.
โ€‹

Feasly automatically compares your cost allocations against available funds:

  • Costs Allocated to Debt
    Total project costs assigned to be funded by debt.

  • Available Debt Funds
    Total debt funds available to cover those allocations.

  • Surplus / (Shortfall)
    Shows if debt funding is over- or under-allocated.


  • Costs Allocated to Equity
    Total costs assigned to be funded by developer or third-party equity.
    โ€‹Includes sales costs not remitted at settlement.

  • Available Equity Funds
    Total equity funds available to cover those allocations.

  • Surplus / (Shortfall)
    Shows if equity funding is over- or under-allocated.
    โ€‹

Example:

Over-allocated $163,636 of project costs to available debt funds.

๐Ÿ’ก Tip: Use this section to rebalance if debt or equity funds donโ€™t fully cover the costs you've allocated to them.

โœ… Solution:
Apply a funding source split to share the cost between debt and equity.

๐Ÿ” Recheck:
Run the check again โ€” once balanced, Costs-to-Funding coverage is balanced.


๐ŸŸฆ Planning: Funding

Step 1: Equity Funds

Set the start month and span for each equity source (Developer or Third-Party Equity).

If equity allocations are correct, the Surplus / Shortfall will show a $0 balance.
โ€‹

Equity Investor Schedule(s)

๐Ÿ’ก Tip: Once you know the timing of equity required, head back to the Funding section to amend the injection schedule. You can download the full schedule in the Equity Investor Report.


Step 2: Debt Funds

  • Set the start month and span for each debt facility.

  • Feasly offers two smart features to simplify setup:
    โ€‹

๐Ÿงฎ Auto-Distribute Debt Funds

Click Auto-Distribute and Feasly will allocate available debt funding using your debt waterfall.

  • You can manually update drawdown amounts.

  • If your feasibility changes, click to redistribute anytime.

๐Ÿ“‰ Interest Variance Wizard

After drawdowns are allocated, Feasly recalculates estimated interest for the facility.

  • Select Add Variance to offset the difference against the interest provision in your cashflow.

  • Select Remove Variance to remove the offset.


Step 3: Check Funding-to-Costs Coverage

This check assesses whether total funding is sufficient to cover all cost allocations โ€” and whether any surplus or shortfall exists.

Feasly automatically calculates:

  • Total Costs Allocated
    The total dollar value of project costs assigned to each funding source.

  • Total Cumulative Funds
    The total funds available (by source) based on your funding spans and allocations.

  • Surplus / (Shortfall)
    Identifies gaps between funds and costs โ€” so you can rebalance before running reports.
    ๐Ÿ“Œ Note: Surplus or shortfall values are not carried through to the cashflow.
