Capital, Revenue & Capital Charge Costs

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance

Dear All,

I'd welcome any advice on the following please. I have to do a relatively
quick scheduling and costing exercise on a 40-50 project portfolio. I have
MS Project Professional but we are not a server environment yet.

I am going to use just a single line for each of the projects and give each
a (very rough I appreciate) estimate for their duration cost and then link
the dependencies between them to get a view of relative scheduling.

I know that the (very rough again) cost of all of them running in parallel
will be above budget for a single year but through some judicious
dependencies and scheduling across financial years they may be acceptable to
my sponsors.

An issue I have is that each project has an estimate for 3 cost types:
revenue
capital
capital charges (the cost of the loan on the capital - apologies if teaching everyone to suck eggs - not intentional)

I'll assume that the costs are pro rata'd but am happy to be advised
otherwise.

I'm just wondering what the best way to do this might be to set this up so
that I get a relatively simple view on the overall programme costs for
revenue, capital and capital charges in each financial year.

Any advice will be heartfully received.

Cheers
Chris
