NEW RUBBER PLANT INVESTMENT Structure / Framework This is an Operations case mixed with Cost Benefit Analysis. The analysis may include, but is not limited to, the following areas: • Analyze the Financial benefits of the investment: • Analyze the ROI for the investment • Analyze the production capacity of the plant. Given the equipment capacity is 10M lbs per month production is probably limited by supply and distribution. • A great approach would be to lay out the value chain for the rubber plant Raw Material Supplier � Manufacturing Plant � Customers After drawing the value chain, the candidate should clearly identify that there is a transportation element here. • Identify the other benefits associated with this investment considering this is a government investment: • Employment • Economic Development • Identification of Risks • Assess risks in the investment (timely delivery, terrorism, labor shortage, etc) and deliver After the candidate lays out the plan ask the candidate to calculate the ROI. If the candidate asks about the demand of rubber in the market then state that the market demand is strong and for our analysis assume that whatever the plant produces can be sold.
