Production Costs Activity

In the table below, the first two sections have two columns Company and Industry for each segment. These are for the raw plant capacity and the maximum capacity of each product and segment. Automation Level is the product line automation and the last two sections are to calculate the costs of plant improvements, in this case doubling capacity and maximizing automation. How to complete the table using the Production Analysis page of the FastTrack

First Shift Capacity First and Second Shift Capacity Automation Level Cost to Double Capacity Cost to Raise Automation to 10
Company Found under "Capacity Next Round" Capacity Next Round x 2 (shifts) Found under "Automation Next Round" Increasing capacity is $6 per unit with an adjustment for automation. Increasing automation is per unit of capacity
Industry Total the capacity of each product in that segment Total capacity of each product in that segment X 2 Formula is: First Shift Capacity x [$6 + ($4 x automation level)] Example Input: 500 Formula is: First Shift Capacity x [$4 x (10 - automation level)] Example Input: 700

* In the simulation, the input cells are in thousands (000s), so an input of 1 is actually 1000 units. So, in the example below 500,000 units is inputted as 500 in the cell. This applies to dollar values as well. Incomplete
