$3\mathrm{.}1$ Hiring new employees $($number of people$)$: Do you want to hire new employees?

It is written in the game that "Each worker can mount normally $2,000$ items per year." Currently, the company employs $50$ workers. So$,$ the maximum number of hairdryers that your company can produce is $100,000$ units per year $(2,000*50).$ If the quantity produced $(1\mathrm{.}1)$ is lower than $100,000$ units then it is not necessary to hire new employees. But, you can still do it$.$

$3\mathrm{.}2$ Dismissal $($number of people$)$: do you want to dismiss employees?

$3\mathrm{.}3$ Gross annual salary $($excluding employer's payroll taxes$)($in $$,$ per employee$)$: Do you want to increase the salary of your employee? I do not recommend to decrease it$.$

$4.$ Audit fees

In $2020,$ audit fees are $0.$

$5.$ Dividends and other

$5\mathrm{.}1$ distributed dividends: How much dividends you want to distribute to your shareholders? Your net income $($profit$)$ at Dec $31,2019$ was $$90,000($see income statement $2019).$

You can distribute part of this net income to your shareholders: usually between $20\%$ and $45\%$ of net income is distributed to shareholders as dividends.

The other part should be reinvested in the company $($the "retained earnings"$).$

$5\mathrm{.}2$ Retained earnings of year $2020($net income of year $2019-$ dividends$)$

The retained earnings is the other part. So$,$ it should be equal to $90,000-$ dividends $(5\mathrm{.}1).$

$5\mathrm{.}3$ Capital increase in cash $-$ upon the agreement of the shareholders

There is no capital increase in $2020.$ This is $0.$

$5\mathrm{.}4$ New loans

There is no new loans in $2020.$ This is $0.$

$5\mathrm{.}5$ Repaid loans

Your company has no loan to repaid in $2020.$ It will repay its loan next year in $2021.$ But, notice that interests have to be paid every year.

$5\mathrm{.}6$ Overdraft interests

The game assumes that you pay your interests in $2020$ on your overdraft of $2019.$ There is an overdraft when your cash is negative $($see balance sheet of $2019).$ In $2019,$ Cash is $70$ so you have $0$ overdraft interest.
