saam: where does the bank take profit from?

Making money
Prices and profit are determined by the sale price of goods and services. Manufacturers keep 60% of the money received for their product. The other 40% is assumed to go for upkeep of property, salaries for employees, rent, material costs, machinery, etc. Resellers keep 60% of the money received for sales. The other 40% is absorbed by the cost of doing business, just like manufacturers. Services keep 80% of the money received for services as they have a much lower cost of doing business.

As you see, no money of those the income is reduced with go to the bank.

The only way for the bank to earn money would be if you give loans out and make money with the interest.

You doesnt the bank give away savings account interests? This way you could "load" money from your customers to work and get profit out. Like real banks do ;-)

Example:
You could pay 10 for every 1000 gold to your customers. Now if you use give those 1000 to someone else as loan for 30 for evey 1000, for 3 tc'S, you would have earned 20.
Using this would also include the bank can NOT just get money out of nowhere to give it to customers, as it is now.

The Bank and all official stores are NPC businesses. They do not make profit. Their managers do not get any special monetary benefit besides the +1 as an RPG helper.

who says the bank isnt making money?
where do you think the tc money comes from. The hut on the right (across from the hut on the left (science hq) is a mint. We make the Fanatikan ***name to be decided by citizen poll*** (money) there. So we keep some of it for us. Thats were we get buyout money from.

[Strider]

I have a few questions that I want to ask:

1. When are we going to start the RPG? Or is the RPG already started?

2. Where can we see are salary's?

 

[BCLG100]

we have started sort of stuck has not posted te salarys yet

 

[Shaitan]

SAAM - The bank has all of the money in the world. It does not need to track income. The bank is simply a transaction center for the players.

 

[BCLG100]

and no we can not have people robbing the bank

 

[Strider]

Through a couple of hours of searching through the RPG sub-forum I came up with what we still need:

#1 A RPG registry where people who want to particaptate post the required information

#2 A salary thread where you can see all the citizens salary.

#3 A thread where business's can post their stats(what was bought etc.)

OPTIONAL:

#1 Real Estate

[BCLG100]

strider for numbe r 3 thats what the item keeper does and if you want strider you could be real estate work out all the kinks before you post it though

 

[disorganizer]

and to real estate: we should start traveling charges first... we will soon have shops in different places, and transporting things from a to b must cost something ;-)

also, the main rpg-shop will be located in the capitol and i propose a branch in the location of the FP. so the prices will go up because of transportation in relation to distance from capitol and FP.

 

[BCLG100]

dis were not even sure if were doing it yet

Only problem with that is that some people might not have excel (I do, but I said some people)

 

[Strider]

Sure I'll do the Real Estate

 

[disorganizer]

Proposal for the bank: also put a plain text post with the end balances in the thread ;-) shouldnt be so much work out of excel.

 

[Strider]

Quick Q.... Am I considered an RPG manager or RPG assistant? I'm Sub-manager and Real Estate Agent.

 

[disorganizer]

The managers were elected. Were you elected? No=Assistand ;-)
At least i believe that... The max would be head of office for a nonelected person.

Addition to the rules:
The business owners may hold back their transactions until TC. All transactions upto the start of the TC-Day must be posted, the Transactions of the TC-Day itself may be delayed until the next TC.
