Business
In the wean-to-昀椀nish scenarios
to the right, we make an
investment of $5.00 per space
to improve facilities, equipment,
process and people. If we desire
a one year payback period, our
investment would need to yield a
$5.00 disease savings per space.
If our health events are less
frequent, it will take us longer to
payback our initial investment.
In our payback analysis, we
have only changed the disease
frequency to illustrate its effect on
payback period.
We recommend you use the
payback method to evaluate
small projects or as an initial
evaluation of larger projects.
Major capital investments will
require more sophisticated
investment analyses. Your team
at Pipestone Business can help
to make sense of these dif昀椀cult
decisions.
