Abstract
The study aims to demonstrate the feasibility of the project of installing a solar photovoltaic system with a capacity of (2kw/h) from a technical and financial point of view, and for the purpose of achieving this goal, a technical feasibility study was prepared, through which it was found that the system should consist of (6) solar cell panels and an inverter with a capacity ( 2.2kw/h) and (4) gel batteries with a capacity of (200A/h) to ensure that the house is equipped with electric power for a period of (4) continuous hours during periods of national electrical power outages, in order to ensure the best performance of the system. The technical study indicated that The project is technically feasible, as it is possible through the system to generate a total daily electrical energy of (21.6 kw/day). In order to demonstrate the financial feasibility of the project, a financial study was prepared and some financial standards were applied, such as (the payback period standard, the accounting return standard, the net present value standard, the return / cost standard, and the internal rate of return standard). By calculating the results, it was found that the payback period for the invested capital is two years and three months , which is an acceptable period, and the accounting rate of return is 42.8%, which is a higher rate than the interest rate on depositing funds in banks, which ranges between (10-8%) and the net present value of the project is ($5305), which is an acceptable value. The rate of return / cost is (1.77), which is greater than one, and this indicates that the project is profitable, while the internal rate of return is (38%), which is a rate higher than the interest rate on funds deposited in banks, and through these results it becomes clear to us that the project is feasible financially speaking.
The study reached a number of conclusions, the most important of which is that there is no government support for solar photovoltaic projects in Iraq, which prevented their widespread dissemination.
The most important thing that the researcher recommends is to provide government support for solar energy projects in Iraq, whether the support is through financial facilities or through the enactment of laws and legislation that motivate citizens to resort to solar photovoltaic systems to fill the shortage of electrical energy as the enactment of a law or legislation that allows the citizen to sell electricity The surplus of its needs and generated from the state's solar energy systems for a reasonable financial consideration.
Key words: feasibility study, photovoltaic solar energy, off-grid system, grid-connected system, Hybrid solar photovoltaic system .
Abstract
The research addresses two main topics: the International Public Sector Standard (IPSAS 24) relating to the presentation of budget information in financial statements, and the Government Financial Management Information System (GFMIS).
In relation to IPSAS 24, the research focuses on clarifying how budget information is presented in public sector financial statements. The standard aims to achieve transparency and reliability in providing financial information to governments and government institutions. The research addresses various aspects of the standard, such as defining financial terms, basic principles, and requirements that must be met in submitting the budget.
For GFMIS, the research reviews and evaluates this system that is used in managing financial information for governments. GFMIS aims to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of government financial resources management, and facilitate financial planning, monitoring and evaluation processes. The concept of GFMIS, its components and benefits are reviewed, as well as the challenges of its implementation and future preferences for its development and improvement.
Overall, the research aims to provide previous researchers with an overview of IPSAS 24 and its importance in presenting budget information in public sector financial statements, as well as reviewing GFMIS and its role in improving government financial information management. This research can contribute to raising public sector awareness of the importance of adhering to international accounting standards in the public sector and using advanced financial information management systems to enhance transparency and effectiveness in managing the financial resources of governments.
The main reason for linking these two variables is to enhance transparency, accountability, and financial control in the public sector and ensure that government financial information complies with international accounting standards in the public sector. Therefore, reviewing these two variables and analyzing their role will provide an important theoretical and applied framework for understanding the relationship between them to rationalize the budget. The most important conclusions reached for the review research are that the main goal of applying the (IPSAS) standards is to achieve compatibility in accounting policies at the global level by providing guidance and directives to develop a comprehensive theoretical framework for government accounting. Evaluating government performance is achieved through commitment to applying the (24 IPSAS) standard., which allows the preparation of a variety of financial statements detailing the approved budget and actual expenditures, the final budget (adjusted allocation), and achieving the qualitative characteristics of accounting information. The government unit did not disclose in the financial statements the extent of compliance with legislative and regulatory laws and other regulations imposed by external parties. (The State) As for the recommendations, the researchers suggest that government institutions should commit to implementing the IPSAS 24 standard completely and accurately to ensure compliance with international accounting standards. Government institutions should analyze their actual needs and conduct a feasibility study before making any transfers in the original budget, in order to ensure a strong scientific basis and improve the institution’s performance in adhering to budget directives. Government institutions should fully and effectively implement GFMIS in all government units to enhance transparency and financial control. The GFMIS should also be configured in a way that meets the needs of the government unit in a way that enables it to record and track financial transactions and prepare financial reports in an accurate and timely manner.
Abstract
The results of the feasibility studies are affected by many factors, including internal and external, and here the investment climate factors represent the external factors that affect the amount of costs and profits of the investment project, which is based on the investment decision, either by rejecting or continuing the project; And through the results of the research, it was found that the cement project is considered a successful project, but the deterioration of the investment climate has hindered its implementation, and because of the difficulties faced by the investor, it contributed to the delay in the implementation of the project. The most important thing recommended by the research is the development of investment policies with achievable goals in addition to the development of clear and applicable laws in order to contribute to creating a good investment climate and contribute to the success of feasibility studies, and reduce administrative red tape and other investment obstacles that cause an increase in the costs of the investment project and thus are reflected in the results Feasibility studies.
