Abstract

The feasibility study describes the capacity of a project to produce economic benefits through the realization of a financial analysis that includes the evaluation of the demand, the cost, expense and expected benefit in order to determine the viability. The general objective of the work was to evaluate the feasibility of creating a maxillofacial surgery and pain management clinic in the city of Portoviejo. The methodology used had a quantitative approach, non-experimental cross-sectional design, descriptive scope and deductive method. Among the results obtained from the survey were that a large proportion of people have public and private social security with a preference for care at night. With regard to the factors that influence the decision to choose the service, there was the price, infrastructure and equipment. Therefore, the level of satisfaction is adequate for the centers they currently attend. For the creation of the clinic, an investment was needed in personnel, external services, equipment and working capital equivalent to $121,360.3, which, when projecting future cash flows and bringing them to present value, concluded that the feasibility is adequate when reaching a IRR of 54.0% and NPV of $120,486.0 with payback in two years and nine months.
