Abstract :
This research has been studied and developed for a dairy company which is under production that needs to build a new dairy powder factory to complete its production process cycle, product portfolio upgrade and to reach the desired point of production and cost. The designed capacity to produce dairy powders, including industrial milk powder and whey powder are 4200 tons per year. In order to build a dairy powder factory, it is necessary to do market studies, technical knowledge of the product, technical studies and study of project cost. For economic analysis of the plan, it is necessary to do precise calculation on fixed and variable investment costs, production costs, sales and cash flows, and finally to extract the financial indexes. In this research, the method of economic studies was based on Comfar software analysis, therefor the main target of this article is to investigate the results of economic analysis to predict the factors which are affecting the efficiency of the project. Based on the information provided in this article, the changes of systematic and non-systematic factors like the cost of project investment, changing in sales and prices of produced products and the cost of material, and inflection rate has significant impact on the rate of investment return. So the investor should be informed and consider economical indexes and parameters which are affecting investment plan in order to make the right decision.
