Is a Q7 weaps factory a good investment?

In this game, a lot of people think that the best way to be “rich” is with a Q7 weapons factory. Let’s see if this is economically real. This is not possible to calculate because is a long period and our market fluctuates a lot. But let’s taking the data today.

Q7 factory= 1220 golds with the 45% discount 671 golds.
1 gold = 175 cc so, a Q7 factory costs 671*175= 117425cc

Now, I want to separate the full bonus countries and the non bonus countries.

In a non bonus country, we produce 10 weaps with 2000 wrm. That means that today, we produce 62,1 cc (10*6,21) with 40 cc (0,02*200), but we have to add 0,73 of Work Tax and 0,25 of consuming food (0,05*5) at the product costs. And finally we have to deduce the VAT in the selling price. Now is at 1%. That means we will earn 61,485 ((61,2*100)/101) yes, erepublik calculates taxes in a strange way.

Let’s calculate this 61,485-40-0,73-0,25= 20,5 cc per day that means that we only can work as manager, the salaries are too high ( I suppose the other businessmen don’t count the food and wrm costs because they also produce them)

Remind the investment was 117425 cc that means we will need 5728 days to pay back our investment ( with the prices like now, that is impossible to assure).

5728 days means 15,7 years (5728/365) assuming a year has 365 days.

Judge yourself if it is good investment XD

Now I will count the same in a country with full bonus.

Taking Poland, you will produce 20 weps, that means 118 cc each day, and if you deduce the taxes, 116,82 (118*0,99). The work tax in Poland is 1,31 cc and the food costs is 0,2 (0,04*5). As you have double production, you need more raw, the double. That will cost you 80 cc (0,02*4000).

Now, let’s count it

116,82-1,31-0,2-80= 35,31 and one more time you can’t contract workers.

Talking about the time, that means 3325,5 days (117425/35,31) that's 9,1 years (3325/365).
One more time, judge yourself if it is a good investment.
