Abstract
This Excel spreadsheet is designed to support evidence-based decision making in the design of a Sustainable Financing scheme to support improved waste management.

The model enables users to compare various scheme scenarios in the design of their Sustainable Finance Scheme such as: different collection network scenarios and inclusion of remote and outer island communities
physical infrastructure investment such as number of deposits and vehicles etc
various deposit levels

Once initial data is input into the yellow tabs of the spreadsheet, users can interact with the purple "Dashboard" to analyse the financial implications and return rates across the different system designs.

The model accounts for inflation, and provides for inclusion of a non-recycling penalty fee.

By evaluating costs, revenues, and material return outcomes, this tool helps stakeholders project scheme performance and determine a financially viable PSS design tailored to their local context.

This model can be used in conjunction with the Calculating Scheme Handing and Administration Fees and Tracking Scheme Performance Model which will help calculate the scheme throughout and further refine scheme costs.
