Usage Guide

Important Usage Instructions
  • Supported Pages: Only use this extension on the "AC Camera Marketing" and "UAV Drone Marketing" pages.
  • Product Design Page Note: Will work on "Product Design" page but sets R&D to 0 - manually change back to highest possible.
  • Delay Configuration: Configure delay in milliseconds to control optimization loop frequency.
  • Optimization Process: Clicking "Start" begins input testing, continuing until "Stop" is clicked.
  • EPS Tracking: Best EPS score displayed in real-time.

  • Projected Performance

    Ensure left-hand side (Projected Performance) is higher than right-hand side (Investors Expect).

  • Yearly Assumptions

    Do not forget to do the Assumptions for the year for Camera and Drone (The red table at the bottom).

  • Net Revenue

    Make sure the New Revenue compared to the previous year is atleast around +15% to +40% (higher is better) this is especially important for the final year.

  • Research and Development

    Invest fully in R&D (buy all $50k available, EPS will be lower than expected for first year). For the final year set R&D to 0.

  • Stock Buyback

    Try to buy back full stock as much as possible.

  • Price/Quality Ratio

    Keep P/Q around industry average. Higher P/Q is preferred if it doesn't negatively impact EPS by too much.

  • Prices for Drone/Camera

    THIS WILL NOT WORK FOR ALL YEARS: For Camera you want to sell more for cheaper (undercut the competition), For Drone so you want sell it for more than the industry average as a premium product, must have a higher P/Q than industry.

  • Manual Adjustments

    Always manually adjust values—the program is not 100% accurate.

  • Loan Management

    Do NOT take out a loan. Maintain good credit rating

  • Position on Leaderboard

    Expect to be placed in bottom to middle for the first few years and slowly climb to the top

  • Cash Management

    Aim for non-negative ending cash but avoid keeping too much. Excess cash could be better invested. Don't have too little ending cash as projections may be off and would lead to negative ending cash

  • Corporate Social Responsibility Initiatives (CSRC)
    • Continue only:
      • Cafeteria and On-Site Child Care Facilities for Plant Employees
      • Additional Safety Equipment and Improved Lighting / Ventilation
    • Select "No" for all other CSRC initiatives
  • Overtime and Workstations
    • Allow overtime for workers if needed
    • Ignore "Additional Workstations Needed" unless it increases EPS

Key Learning Points

Mistakes that likely prevented 1st place:

  • Did not complete yearly assumptions until Year 9 (was unaware of this feature)
  • First year R&D investment was only 40-45k instead of 50k
  • Assumptions were not accurate enough
  • Did not have this extension to optimize EPS further until year 9

Key Observation: Their notably low Year 6 EPS (0.93) suggests they invested the full 50k in R&D from the start - a strategy that paid off in later years with consistently higher image ratings and strong financial performance.
