Wirtschaft/Finanzwesen
Wirtschaftswissenschaften
Das Konzept basiert auf erste Arbeitswerte und steht insbesondere unter dem Vorbehalt der noch festzulegenden endgültigen Zahlen. Die Berechnung der Mieten ist vorläufig. Sollten sich die Investitionssummen, die Laufzeiten oder die Refinanzierungs-zinssätze ändern, müssen die Mieten neu berechnet werden.

Another argument to support my opinion that original text is not dealing with work already performed:
- a common way of interpreting the term \"Arbeitswerte\" is also to see it as denoting *values*/figures/estimates which one can *work* with on a preliminary basis
- response to Hamo\'s point: likelihood has it that contracts are set up before works commence, and the whole text *is* a contractual document afaik, which is usually written in present tense

: work does not seem to have been performed already - see DE-EN question "Generalübernehmervertrag" relating to the same text

Your observation may or may not be correct, as the entire text that you have suggested is in present tense and the true nature of the entire document is not known. Let's wait and see.
