Please Help Economy Issues (White Giant)

Hi i have a country fremin on white giant. the problem i am having is balancing my finances. I build corporations but everytime i build cost goes up. My finance index is 63.46. Can someone please help me balance my cost. Thanks

Are your corporations profitable?
If they are profitable, then see if you can tweak the sales strategy to make them more profitable.

For the ones that are not profitable, find out why, are they buying supplies at terribly high prices, if so think about creating corporations that can supply them with what they need and sell the excess on the world market with a good trade strategy.

I made my corporations jump in profitability by about 30B/month by using the -10 quality strategy. The simulation suggests about 28 corporations for my country, however I've got about 50+/- with a population of 19.4B

My finances are in order, and it gives my country a finance score of 20th position which puts my country into 50th position on the leading 100 countries. My war index however is what is holding me back.

If you are a new country, you can "try" this strategy if you like, it's been mentioned on these forums before so heres just the short of it.

Sell off all of your weapons and ammo, this will raise your cash into your country greatly. Then concentrate on starting new corporations that supply your other corporations (factory maintenance is terribly expensive in my opinion, so create what you can of those).

Some corporations will lose money, but some will make a lot of money, once they reach a certain amount they will transfer money to your country which you can use to put back into the corporations that lose money (BUT KEEP YOUR PEOPLE EMPLOYED) which is what happens to me on an almost regular basis. Im constantly dumping money into my soybean corporation that loses money on a regular basis but keeps my people employed, so my factory maintenance is making 4x what the soybeans is losing so I am using 1/4 of my profits from the factory maintenance to put back into my soybeans just to keep my peeps employed which I think is a good thing on our scores and on the countries peeps happiness.

Another example is that my nuclear missile production (3 corporations to do this) loses aproximately 3B a month, but I am making far more than that in other corporations so it gets dumped back into the nuclear production when I get money from my corporations or when they are below 30B in cash.

Hope this rambling helps in some way.

Well you employment is only 51% on a 32M population country, with low military spending, and moderate public services spending. I would advise to lower tax to 0%, advertise on the forums and get some private corporations in your country. You don't have to deal with running the corporations and their profitability, and they bring in more revenue even with a 0% tax rate.

Or you could create public offerings in all the corporations you control then set the share portfolio target for all corporations to 0% under the share market> set portfolio targets. During this time share splits will occur increasing the value of the corporations dramatically which you get in cash from selling all the shares, when your share value of these corporations reach 0% gamemaster enterprises will assume control of these corporations if the shares have not been purchased by any CEOs. Which you have basically made your state corporations private, but you will usually make more money then just letting a CEO buy these corporations because creating public offers cause the value of corporations to increase more then they usually would.

Also I just let corporations regulate themselves on the market by not interfering with cash transfers. That way unprofitable corporations will close themselves if they don't make a profit for a long enough time, and profitable corporations produce a higher return then if you were to share their profits, simply for the point of generating employment. In maulers case he could probably build almost two high tech corporations that both generate a profit with the workers he keeps employed against the market forces in soybeans corporation. If anything those workers are better off building munitions or infrastructure for your country then offering whats assumed to be an already flooded market with soybeans.

Also your selling your corporations goods too cheaply. Your giving everyone else a bargain at the expense of your economy. Your oil corporations could get away with selling at 40% above the product quality considering the market situation.
