create a simple financial plan to buy cores within the budget mentioned in the description. Job Description: You have been hired to explore a gold deposit in Rock City, USA. You are competing with several geologic consulting firms (the other groups in your class) to provide the most accurate representation of the ore body. You will have a budget of $350,000 to purchase additional data in the form of drill cores (drilling costs about $15 per foot) and an optional consultation with a Senior Exploration Geologist for $50,000. As with any real geologic problem, more data is better, but it comes at a price.
