Key Demand Consideration: Overall market ~ 14%/yr “Average” company should/could double - sales in 6 years Key Capacity Consideration:

 This analysis examines growth of customer demand as simulation proceeds thru 8 rounds.  For this exercise you need the Market Segment Analysis pages (pages 5 - 9) of The Capstone Courier- Round 0  W/in Segment Statistics-Use the Industry Unit Demand - top left corner DEMAND ANALYSIS

CAPACITY ANALYSIS This exercise requires the Production Analysis (page 4) of The Capstone Courier. The analysis asks:  What Would it Cost to Double Capacity;  What Would it Cost to Maximize Automation?

CAPACITY ANALYSIS To successfully manage your company-- need to know the cost of increasing the number-of- units you can manufacture. Need to decide how best to increase output: 1. Increase manufacturing capacity; or 2. Increase automation (which allows you to profitably run a line on overtime ).
