Components of Feasibility Study

First of all I would like to define what is feasibility study? Well, a feasibility study is written to find out if the chosen project is feasible before investing money. Feasibility study will determine if the proposed venture is profitable and viable and also to study the possible risk that will encounter during the implementation.

The following are some of the components of feasibility study.
