Estudio de factibilidad para la creación de una empresa procesadora de fundas de plástico con la incorporación de material reciclado en la ciudad de Riobamba

Abstract

The objective of this research project was to design a feasibility study for the creation of a plastic bags processing company with the incorporation of recycled material in Riobamba city, through a market study that involved primary sources such as surveys, request for forms and secondary sources such as thesis, journals and scientific articles, books on project evaluation, statistics, production processes, as well as determining the supply and unsatisfied demand by means of future values and population growth rates; from the technical point of view, an evaluation of suppliers was determined by the Brown and Gibson method, also the installed capacity, efficiency, optimum number of workers, work stations, assigned tasks, times and areas by means of line balancing. And the financial study was carried out using economic techniques such as loan amortization table, production costs, administration, sales, financial, break-even point, investment, unit cost, profit and loss statement, and cost and expense projections, among others. For the evaluation of the research, financial indicators such as Net Present Value (NPV), Internal Rate of Return (IRR), Capital Recovery Period (CRP), Benefit/Cost Ratio (BCR/C) were applied, resulting in future values amounts that cover the total investment, and the Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is higher than the minimum acceptable rate of return, and the Capital Recovery Period (CRP) is three years. From a marketing, technical and financial point of view, the research concludes that the project is viable. It is recommended to carry out in the technical study an analysis of the installed capacity with a greater number of machines to cover the unsatisfied demand.
