This thesis assesses whether or not the procedure for calculating the Medium-Term Cost (CPM, in Spanish) of one m3 of drinkable water and sewage, as established by the regulatory body (SUNASS) for each of the companies providing these services (Service Provider Companies, or EPS in Spanish) is correct. To this end, the SEDAPAL Tariff Study for the period 2015-2020 is subjected to analysis. According to the practice commonly applied to the economic assessment of projects (public or private), it is necessary to identify and quantify both the costs and benefits generated for society as a whole during the life of a project, in order to determine its profitability and/or feasibility. The regulatory body (SUNASS) applies a standard cost estimation methodology to all EPS, in order to establish the cost of one m3 of drinking water and sewage, making it possible to directly define the rate for the service and indirectly the level of subsidy for different user categories. In our assessment, we question the use of a “Single Discount Rate” for the updating of cost flow, given that SEDAPAL is a leveraged company with a capital structure that will undergo modifications during the period of validity of the Tariff Study. Therefore, an adjustment will be required in that rate. The consequences of incorrect use of this rate are reflected in the value of the Tariff and the amount of subsidy. In essence, the importance is demonstrated of the discounted tariff in the evaluation of projects, since, even if other variables are correctly projected, the use of an inappropriate discount rate may lead to the approval of projects which destroy value, while those which are viable may be rejected.
