Most people think WRM is not a profitable business model, your'd be wrong, It can compete against any sort of business, and sometimes even more profitable than those who make Q5 tanks.

The Maths is here to tell you the rest:

Small WRM Business:

Small companies are going to buy the cheaper infrastructures on average and have some higher grade buildings, so this is my example model for a Small WRM Business.

3 x Iron Mines ( 3 Achieved Via Grant, 1 by Default, land not paid for.)

2 x Oil Rig (Land and Buildings paid for) - 2 x 2,000 = 4,000 GBP 2 x 1,000 = 2,000 GBP 4,000 + 2,000 = 6,000 GBP

So far you have spent: 6,000 GBP on your Business. But what's the money like, is probably what you want to know, here it is:

(WRM = 0.34 for this example)

Iron Mines = 35 WRM each.
Oil Rigs = 70 WRM each.

35 x 4 = 140 WRM
70 x 2 = 140 WRM
140 + 140 = 280 WRM.
280 x 0.34 = 95.20 GBP Daily, 666.4 GBP Weekly.

So 6,000/666.4 = 9 Weeks to repay the 6,000 GBP. (Too long I say, the reason for this is, you never got an investor or a enough starting buildings.)

What a Small WRM Company Should look like is this:

4 x Iron Mine: 0 GBP
5 x Oil Rig: 15,000 GBP

35 x 4 = 140 WRM
70 x 5 = 350 WRM
140 + 350 = 490 WRM
490 x 0.34 = 166.6 GBP Daily, 1166.2 GBP Weekly.

15,000/1,166.2= 12.8 Weeks to repay (Same Length, but a much bigger company, but I would advice you work too.)

So plus 150 GBP (on average to both examples)

First Small WRM Business:

95.20 + 150 = 245.20 GBP Daily or 1716.40 GBP Weekly
6,000/245.20= 25 Days or 3.5 weeks to repay.

Second Small WRM Business:

166.6 + 150 = 316.60 GBP Daily or 2216.20 GBP Weekly.
15,000/316.60= 47 Days 6.7 Weeks to repay.


Now for Medium WRM Businesses:

4 x Iron Mines = 35 WRM each.
6 x Oil Rigs = 70 WRM each.
2 x Saltpeter Mines = 175 WRM each.

35 x 4 = 140 WRM
70 x 6 = 420 WRM
175 x 2 = 350 WRM
140+420+350=950 WRM
910 x 0.34 = 309.4 GBP

Overall cost for Buidlings and lan😛
8 x 1,000 = 8,000 GBP
6 x 2,000 = 12,000 GBP
2 x 7,500 = 15,000 GBP
8,000+12,000+15,000=35,000 GBP

Daily income: 309.40 GBP + 150(work) = 459.40 GBP Daily
Weekly Income: 459.40 x 7 = 3215.80 GBP Weekly

35,000/459.40= 76 days or 11 weeks to repay.

Now for the Industrial size WRM Company:

4 x Iron Mines = 35 WRM each.
8 x Oil Rigs = 70 WRM each.
6 x Saltpeter Mines = 175 WRM each.
1 x Rubber Plantation = 250 WRM each.

Overall Cost of Buildings and Lan😛
15 x 1,000 = 15,000 GBP
8 x 2,000 = 16,000 GBP
6 x 7,500 = 45,000 GBP
1 x 31,500 = 31,500 GBP (1 gold = 900 GBP, 35 gold = 31,500 GBP)
15,000+16,000+45,000+31,500=107,500 GBP

Daily/Weekly income:

4 x 35 = 140 WRM
8 x 70 = 560 WRM
6 x 175 = 1,050 WRM
1 x 250 = 250 WRM
140+560+1,050+250 = 2,000 WRM

2,000 x 0.34 = 680 GBP

680 + 150(work) = 830 GBP daily or 5,810 GBP weekly.

107,500/830= 130 days or 18.5 weeks.

I would reccomend a Medium WRM Company size for those new to the WRM production and selling world.

If you need anymore help, post below, or contact me in-game, I am happy to help.
I also offer investments to help one of these company models come a reality, but I do charge a 10% interest and weekly instalments and not a one-payment at the end.(please check the investments thread in the Trade Federations Organisation thread in the forums, for more details on Atlas Industries Investment Scheme's - must be a Trade Federation Member to gain Investment grants.)

I hope this has been helpful, if so/not feel free to get in contact with me.
