“GAI’s estimates of taxable sales and applicable sales tax revenue generated by the project are an integral part of bond analysis. Not only are GAI’s estimates used by the underwriter to determine the size of the ultimate bond issue, they give prospective bond buyers confidence that a qualified third-party has analyzed the project and provided estimates independent of the developer. Over the years, the financing community has relied significantly on GAI’s documents due to our consistent track record of providing estimates that are very close to actual results.”
