Financial and Risk Feasibility for the Optimization of a Production Process: Case Study of a Food Company in the City of Popayán
Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: This research arises from the need to improve the production efficiency of a local company and capitalize on an opportunity in the regional market. In order to optimize the production process, a study is carried out using the methodology of the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), thus allowing to evaluate the economic, financial and risk viability associated with the project. In this context, we seek to identify significant variables through financial and management indicators of the company, deepening the analysis. Additionally, projected cash flows are developed for both the investor and the project, using financial evaluation criteria such as the Net Present Value (NPV), the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) and the Benefit-Cost Ratio (BCR). To complement this analysis, the potential risks associated with the project were evaluated. This comprehensive approach will provide management with key information for informed decision-making regarding project implementation.
