CIMA E3 Question Answer
DEF is a medium sized business which manufactures children's clothing. In the last 5 years demand has steadily increased and DEF is struggling to meet this demand within its current manufacturing capacity. DEF's current manufacturing machinery was installed over 10 years ago and now requires updating, if DEF is to survive in the marketplace.
DEF has established that the latest manufacturing technology would cost $2 million. This would be funded by the shareholders. It would payback within 2 years and would allow DEF to double output from its current level within this 2 year period. It will also improve product consistency and quality. However, it will result in the loss of 20% of DEF's manufacturing staff, most of whom are low paid and low skilled.
DEF is currently reviewing this proposed investment strategy, in terms of whether it meets the criteria of Suitability, Acceptability and Feasibility.
Which of the following correctly identifies the criteria which are met, in regard to DEF's proposed investment strategy?
