Cost of production is a major consideration if any sustainable business model. Unless you find a piece of gold laying on the ground, everything has a production cost... even air, when you look at a sustainable biosphere.
What I use today, pennies.
What I use this week, dollars
What I use this month, MORE dollars
That is not start up costs, amortization, depreciation, capital improvements, hard cost over head or emergency response costs.
I could go out an buy ten, 1000K lights... and grow one plant... :grow:
Buying the lights do not factor into A-COP outlay, or the one seed
My today cost is what I put into the plant... water, nuts, light and man hours.
Profit, or not, is after the product has been produced, NOT production itself.
Cool, so I 'pay' myself $5.00 an hour to 'produce' product... but then my 'profit' comes after the sale, distribution or disposal of said product.
Does my profit factor into my A-COP, ? Only as it is invested back into day to day production... switching from Miracle Grow to Advanced Nutrients will raise my operating overhead, per dose, per cycle per production run.
MG is cheeper, I think I will stick with it... but, wait, AN may have a positive effect on my A-COP bottom line... lets see... two cents a dose or two dollars a dose...
IF my production is increased 100%... OR my quality is increase 100%, or a combination of both, then I would have to seriously look at a Regime Change.
My back hurst... quick, somebody pull my finger...
