Researches Value on Company Value

Post by Guest » 26.03.2009, 01:31

I would like to know, why the value of researches don't count for the company total value, cause in relation on my company i just got the following values:

- Production buildings:....3.190.250.000,00

At the moment there is no company value amount. We have Fixed Assets, Cash, Quality, Score, etc. Fixed Assets are only the cost of money you spend on a building. (Cost to build the building and expand it not including the material costs needed to build and expand.) In the same way Score only counts status symbols and special buildings.

I am in favor of keeping it that way. As of now, people in a industry such as Jewelery will end up with more Fixed Assets than someone in an industry like Plantations. Whoever, the people in the Plantation industry can compete in the Score Highscores instead. People with low Fixed Assets can compete with people with high Fixed Assets, provided they have a good research center, in the Quality Highscores.

Sorry Azer, but if you go to office/finances you will see at the end the company value, wich is the sum of the FA and cash, but this should also consider the value of the technologies, products on warehouse, coins and status itens (those last two could be valued by the average of the last 30 transactions), cause in real life all those itens are considered to get the value of a company.

This number is added by KapiScript
I don't think that developers of KapiScript are able to calculate research value and other parameters, they simply summarize FA and cash

I am not using KapiScript, and never instaled it, using IE.

I don't really care about company value and especially not total value when cash is involved.

Buildings are way more expensive then their FA value.
Research is also way more expensive then their research cost, but ofcourse it should be easy to add it to some total value just like they do with FA.


But most important thing about company value is the Cash since it changes a lot with only small amounts of FA/Research being traded.
Buy a 30K RC at 5B and you'll lose 5B cash while gathering around 150M FA or something like that.

Did you lose 4.85B??
I don't think so...
But suddenly your company value does drop 4.85B due to investing in an expensive building which might be a smart decision.

You could also add warehouse value to your total company value.
It is value to.

Maybe best way to go is just counting your own value if you want to know, but any value you get will be incomplete anyway.

Im not in favor of this as i am a power producer, and do not need any researches.

Oh and with researches if you put say 10million in (buy researching to the next quality) you would get 10million out, but if you used this to expand buildings you would only get say 500,000 more F.A. Just something to think about

This however is true. And also, you would reach next level sooner which is not in interest of any company
