in one (1st period), or respectively (in future periods) in

several markets.

Your products are:

http://bayer.bims.ag/

2 Basic data

Here youll find: Basic information, on which your

planning of each period (P) should (amongst others)

predicate.

Topics are e.g.:

Predicted volume of the markets

(The basis for your production planning)

Guide values for prices

(Which circa prices are expected of the customers)

Upcoming events

(e.g. opening of new markets, interests of consumers

and else)

At the following sheets you will find exemplary

calculations for product X-basic.

Economic data

See:

Planning Period - Alternative x

Period data Economic data

2 Basic data

Here youll find: Information, to calculate your entries.

This data includes: The divisions purchasing,

production, personnel, finance & accounting and

logistics.

Topics are e.g.:

Price breaks (see Purchasing)

Each period updated data (the manual shows

approximate values)!

Required resources per product

(see Production)

Company data

See:

Planning Period - Alternative x

Period data Company data

3 Decisions

Calculate first:

How many poducts you will presumably be able to

sell (see Economic Data)

How many production lines & personnel you

require (see Company Data Production)

Afterwards please fill in data in all categories of

Decision!

Tip: A bit of over production is better than an inability

to deliver.

See:

Planning period Alternative x

Decision

3 Decisions

The production volume

(based on the economic data and your strategy)

Please note:

Produce enough to also be able to export your products

in the following period.

Production (in P1: Production plant Europe)

Example:

Market data Europe P1 & USA P2:

Example X-basic:

Predicted total market volume (altogether for the 4 competing companies):

for Europe: 48.000 units

for the USA (for export in P2): 24.000 units (see M 2)

Per company this would be a volume of:

Europe: 48.000 : 4 = 12.000 units

USA: 24.000 : 4 = 6.000 units

Buffer: (if demand is higher) 1.000 units

Total: 12.000 + 6.000 + 1.000 = 19.000 units

3 Decisions

Please calculate:

The required mechanical and electronic components for this period.

Also plan (& order) already for the upcoming periods.

Please note: Products for the export (e.g. USA) have to be produced

one period in advance.

Order via:

- Immediate purchases (Delivery in current period)

- Normal purchases (Delivery in next period)

- Future purchases (Delivery in 2 periods)

Purchasing

Example:

Consumption values components:

Example X-basic:

For 19.000 units of X-basic the following components are required:

Mechanical components: 19.000 x 210 = 3.990.000 units

Electronic components: 19.000 x 39 = 741.000 units

Proceed in the same way with X-film & X-lab and add the values.

Tip: Keep an eye on the price breaks and if applicable order a bit more.

Also plan for the upcoming periods (keep the upcoming markets in mind) and

order via normal and future purchases.

3 Decisions

Please notice especially:

Price: Price expectations for the different markets

can be found at the Economic data

Number of sales personnel: You require a minimum

number of 40 sales force members for each of the

markets Europe and USA

In later periods you will be able to add additional

employees via this field or to lay them off (in a limited

extent).

Via the percentual allocation you can relate the total

number of your employees (new ones AND existing

ones) to the different products (in total 100%).

Market reports: It will give you information about

your competitors in the following period.

Marketing

Example:

3 Decisions

Appraise your required capital: After all investments have been

made (and entered), the required capital can be established at:

Results reports Finance & Accounting Finances (see

overdraft).

Finance & Accounting

Example:

Extract Finances:

Example:

In our example we chose the following options:

Basic share capital: 100 Mio.

Long term loan: 65 Mio.

Please note when calculating: The interest rate for your investments

already accrue in the current period.

Tip: You should avoid an overdraft (high interest rates). Therefore please

check if an overdraft is displayed, after you filled in your data. If so you might

compensate it with your basic share capital or a loan.

4 Reports

Aim: Overview and control about your entered data

and its impacts.

Available are:

Summary report: Contains information on selected

topics like utilization of personnel & production lines,

overdraft, annual net profit / annual deficit

Results reports: Contain detailed information on all

divisions

Tip: For a detailed analysis of your decisions, we

recommend to use the Results reports besides the

summary report (especially for topics like production,

purchasing & finance and accounting).
