Dheeraj wants to start a business of selling N-95 masks after the outbreak of the global pandemic of COVID-19. Due to the uncertain market conditions he wants to make a low investment in fixed capital. Suggest how the decisions related to the choice of technique and financing alternatives can help Dheeraj in ensuring a low investment in fixed capital requirements. |
|
Answer» Choice of Technique: As he wishes to stick to a low investment model, we may suggest him to go with the labour-intensive approach to manufacture N95 masks. Since better technology would cost him much and his risk appetite is not conducive for capital intensive techniques of production. Financial Alternatives: As he wishes to stick to a low investment model, we may suggest him to go with the lease option for fixed assets like building, heavy machinery etc. as this may reduce his investments requirement in the business. |
