New World Economy

Terrible Things
Day 1,299 of the New World
"I like beautiful melodies telling me terrible things."
— Tom Waits
Here is a snapshot of the new economy atm. Glory in the stupidity.
The Following Model uses a snapshot of the current market rate of .14/Raw for Weapons, .09/Raw for Food, and a current Job Market Salary of 52USD/Day. It also takes into account current Country Bonuses and Taxes. The cost of 10 health/click for work as manager has NOT been factored in.
In Raw Materials,
Production is in Units and Retail Market Value is in USD.
There is no profit in hiring a worker in Raw Materials.
In Manufacturing,
Production is listed in Units.
Raw Cost is the cost of buying Raws per worker in USD.
Retail Value is the total revenue in USD (Taxes have been taken out).
Manager Profit is in USD after Raw Cost is subtracted.
Manager + Staff x10 is total profit after paying Raws and salaries, and adding Manager profits. Figure is in USD.
# of days until break even is at current Company cost divided by daily profit. The first figure is working only as manager, the second is fully staffed.
Before everyone goes out a buys a Q3 Food Manufacturing Company, remember that within 46 days Plato is almost guaranteed to change something.
Welcome to the New World.

I can't help but feel this game is becoming a rage machine.

ouch
guess I am glad i never care for the business aspect of this game, though I am curious how much did I produce at minimum wage, that month or so I worked for you? I feel kinda stupid giving you back those 170 Q5 tanks you mistakenly gave to me.
Gee whiz George, want something?
Your heart, Gnilraps. Your heart.
While you're at it, give me some of your damn subscribers.
But if you buy the company, you still have the asset of having the company, which you can sell at any time. So really, every dollar you're making as a profit each day, will count as your overall profit once/if you sell the company.
Zqym, that's what we thought about raw companies too, not that long ago. We were right, until Plato changed the game.
Plato is the worst. I miss Admin.
OmegWar, while Raw Material companies can't be sold, Manufacturing companies can. I thought it was a given that everyone knew Raw Material companies couldn't be sold, so I didn't mention it, but you're right. My previous post only applies to Manufacturing companies.

Zgym There was a point where you could sell raw materials companies.
holy crap! i glanced at your article's title and thought it read "New World Order." after my double-take i thought it would be about the federal reserve conspiracy. then after reading between the lines i realized that... BANG! (dead and bleeding on the floor)
LOL SPC91X, why don't you have a newspaper? Srsly, always enjoy your comments.
Q3 food is way overpriced with 0.57/unit. Q1 costs 0.1/unit at the moment (which is even less than FRM!!) and there is just no reason why Q3 food should be more worth than 3 times the price of Q1.
I would be curious what it is for managers who work only for themselves. That is what I have been doing for the past 6 months or so. As far as production cost before the changes RM costs to manufacturer were less than a penny each which makes food produced much cheaper. I am pretty sure that I have huge profit margins with my only real cost is losing fights where my influence doesn't really make that much of a difference vis a vis the tanks anyways.
Before, we were all complaining that there was underproduction, and things were too expensive. We all shopped around different countries markets, prepared to convert currency looking to save even the smallest amount of money.
I think admin has listened to us, and made it easier for us to supply ourselves, and others.
It's easy now, and who want's it to be hard again ?
Let the admin have some time to analyze, and he will make it a little harder for you, if you beg him enough, I'm sure about that 😉
I do think that the formula needs to be changed again, so we can try and get our currencies back to 1 USD = 0.02 Gold.
