Booster production
« on: June 24, 2009, 12:32:44 PM »
Did some preliminary calculations on making boosters for sale.
Using the celadon cytoseroscin someone is selling in fountain as a base and cost driver it would make about 300m.
This is with buying all materials, the gas for 69k/unit (the water used is negliable in cost really), 3k of gas used which in turn should unless i'm mistaken make 132 pills (standard exile) each pill sells for about 4.5 in fountain (more in empire ofc but they are illegal there ;) ) so a total sales would be 594m and approximate costs 207m (not counted costs of blueprints fully yet either).


However is going into this something the corp could be interested in?

not sure if anyone will have drug manufacturing, its an expensive book base 25M so quite a cost and you need a drug lab to make the stuff iirc

However, take away from them the power to create money and all the great fortunes like mine will disappear and they ought to disappear, for this would be a happier and better world to live in. But, if you wish to remain the slaves of bankers and pay the cost of your own slavery, let them continue to create money." Josiah Stamp (Governor Bank of England 1928-41)

also fountains gas clouds are all in pegasus which is a restricted system (?) or occasionally through exploration

Exploration and buying from market.
I've found two radar sites for example (not good enough skills to scan down) and 25m skill book isn't much for the potential profits.

Seems the price (at a glance of celadon cyto) in jita is about 100k the price in fountain varies.
I've bought the cheep stock for now, if nothing else as a investment.

And a approximation, using the stock I've bought it would pay for the pos and all needed modules and probably a month of fuel for the pos. Then it is just a matter of sourcing gas.

Break even point for the exile boosters is in the neighborhood of 200k isk/unit of gas.

Seems there are booster production facilities in pnq, which will be available for free. Would eliminate the need for a druglab so makes the investment a bit lower.
