Most developing countries are making strenuous efforts to bridge the growing food gap resulting from the population explosion The algae cultivation and production project is considered one of the investment projects of great importance because of the production of algae biomass and the biomaterials extracted from it, as it contains effective compounds used as food additives and in the work of tablets or capsules that are of vital importance to the public health of humans, and were used for animals as feed in addition to their use Agricultural fertilizers, biofuel production and many other uses, which calls for the importance of the financial evaluation of this project and its profitability The research dealt with the undiscounted financial evaluation criteria and it was found that the break-even point is located at the production of 622 kg, which represents about 9.4% of the actual production capacity of spirulina algae, and this point achieves total revenues equal to the total costs of this production and is estimated at 2.026 thousand pounds, and thus the break-even point is It has been achieved at an economically acceptable level of operation.

The payback period amounted to about 1.1 years and a month, meaning that the invested capital can be recovered within one year and a month from the start of production, which is a shorter and more acceptable period, which reflects the positive effects on liquidity, profitability and the degree of risk.

It was also found that the rate of return on investment has reached about 57% This indicates the economic feasibility of this project.

It also dealt with the discounted financial evaluation criteria, and it was found that the net present value amounted to about 4,634 thousand pounds at a discount rate of 13%, which indicates the feasibility of investing in the cultivation of spirulina algae, and the ratio of benefits to costs about 1.4, which is greater than the correct one, which indicates the feasibility of investing in this project.

, while the internal rate of return reached about 89%, which is more than the prevailing interest rate on borrowing, which confirms the feasibility of investing in the spirulina algae cultivation and production project.

It gives a return of 3.7 pounds.

By conducting a sensitivity analysis for the project, the project’s ability to withstand unfavorable changes in case of increased costs, decreased revenues, increased costs and decreased revenues together, where the internal rate of return reached about 70%, 58%, and 44%, respectively
