[Dáil Éireann] Preliminary Investigation Into Commune Investment

Day 2,239, 09:08 Published in Ireland Ireland by Seanan


Citizens of The Republic,
(Sounds officially official)

Last term when I managed to wiggle into the Dáil thread, despite not being elected, where I volunteered to look into the potential for the rental money to be invested into the Nation's commune systems. At present, I have found only 4 commune systems and all are military communes;

✯ Irish Army & Bootcamp (State)
✯ Labour People's Army (Private)
✯ Clerics (Private)
✯ CrOmega Ireland (Private)

This was a preliminary investigation to look at potential for investment. With permission from the commune operators, I will give more detailed layouts of the systems to the Dail, if investment is considered an option - however, for public consumption, I will tactically illustrate using my own methodology which represents the capacity of these systems without compromising worker counts, production or anything of particular strategic worth.



Method
Commune operators provided me with worker counts, the Production Companies involved in their system and the Raw Material Companies involved in their system. Information about about additional inputs, such as donors, State or private investment was not collected. Information on offered supply was not collected.

My methodology looks to create a comparable factor between the systems. For this reason, I set the standard baseline supply of each military organization at 10 Q7 Tanks per worker - information about offered supply was not collected nor additional inputs, so not reflective of actual supply of all organizations but it should be considered an aim when looking at the need for investment.

Next Stage:
✯ What production bonuses does the Operator have?
✯ Is there 1 Q7 Weapon Company Placement per Worker?
✯ Does the production of Weapon Raw Material Companies involved in the System meet the RM demands needed to provide each Worker with 10 Q7 Tanks?
✯ What is the highest Q Raw Material Company?

The method expresses the answers to these questions in a percentage under "Capacity" - this indicates the ability of the commune system to provide all its Work Force 10 Q7 Tanks each.

Worked Example
# If 0% bonus Weapon Bonus; each Worker requires 2,000 WRM to create their 10 Q7 Tanks.
# Hence a System which has 10 Workers with a Q7 Company Placement Each
# And WRM Production from the Operator equaling 20,000
= Has a Capacity of 100%

This means without any additional inputs, the system in its current form is capable of providing each worker 10 Q7 tanks. A percentage below 100%, such as 50%, means the system is only capable of providing half its Work Force 10 Q7 tanks each without additional inputs. A percentage above 100%, means the system is able to provide more than 10 Q7 tanks per worker without any additional inputs.

In systems where there are more Workers than Q7 Placements, I substitute their Work Clicks into WRM production. I also factor in high bonus systems, that the Operator might allocate only some of the Work Force to Q7 Placements and the rest to WRM Production, for example if has 10/10 Weapon Bonuses - Hence each worker produces 20 Q7 tanks, so 10 for themselves and 10 another - that another then works in WRM Company.



Results


Remembering this is based on my model of Baseline Supply = 10 Q7 tanks. Others may believe an acceptable baseline supply is below 10 tank, so the capacity would be higher.

This also only takes into account the 'Operators' characteristics and inputs. 'Additional inputs' are not considered, and would require further investigation if the Dail wished to pursue this pathway; The operator is unlikely to be the only input into a system, others will likely add to the system by donating currency from their own production to the Operator to buy more WRM - this becomes more prominent in large systems where if the Operator had to provide all WRM from own General Manager clicks, the Operator may have to buy EBs or Gold Health just to complete Daily Clicks.

Without proper investigation into additional inputs its difficult to know the 'true' capacity, however as a preliminary investigation this sets the tone. Under current figures I'd estimate a rise in capacity by 1% under my Baseline Supply: Irish Army & Bootcamp (6,000-11,000 IEP), Labour People's Army (2000-4,000 IEP), Clerics (1,000-3,000 IEP) - however the room for error without further investigation should be abundantly clear.
