FINANCIAL Capacity Pages
This section of WATER Power Tools™ contains tools and programs to help you manage the financial operations of your water system. These tools have been selected and designed to help you better measure, analyze, and understand the financial resources and capacities within your system. You will also gain new insight into current and future fiscal demands as WPT™ guides you through a systematic analysis of important monetary elements of your municipality. A sample of some of the questions you will be able to answer include -
How much amortization should I record for various system elements? What would be the impact of using different depreciation methods?
What is the cost of the water my system provides? How does that cost change if elements in my system change?
What is the value of my spare parts and equipment inventory? How can I plan for the replacement of major pieces of equipment?
What elements should I include in an impact fee, and what should the overall amount of the impact fee be?
WATER Power Tools™ will help you answer these questions and many more as you input your system information into the WPT™ Financial Capacity pages. A summary listing of the individual pages within this section follows this paragraph. Where there are sections with similar pages, only one representative example may be shown. |
