Investment plan for the Guček sawmill

V magistrskem delu je pripravljena finančna analiza in investicijski načrt na lastnem žagarskem obratu. Opravljene analize temeljijo na realnem primeru, kjer so upoštevani skupni stroški in prihodki na žagi. Poleg tega smo opravili še simulacijo investicije sušilnice in peletirke. V enem od poglavij smo predstavili standard za razvrščanje konstrukcijskega lesa pravokotnega prečnega prereza po trdnosti, ki smo ga pridobili v letu 2020 in pomeni veliko prednost na slovenskem in prav tako na evropskem trgu. Cilj magistrskega dela je ugotoviti, ali je naša dejavnost z vidika ekonomike poslovanja upravičena. Obe investiciji smo ocenjevali, upoštevajoč obrestno mero 4 %. Ocena investicije za peletirko bi se nam povrnila v 6 letih, saj je takrat prvič pozitivno ocenjena vrednost NSV. V našem primeru znaša ocena NSV 12.558,66 €. Interna stopnja donosnosti pri peletirki, kjer je vrednost NSV še pozitivna, znaša 6,52 %. Za sušilnico bi se nam investicija povrnila v 3 letih, saj je takrat neto sedanja vrednost prvič pozitivna in znaša 21.055,57 €.This thesis deals with a financial analysis and an investment plan for a selected sawmill plant. All the analyses are based on real-life examples, taking into account all the costs and revenue of a sawmill. Additionally, an investment simulation for a sawmill dryer and pellet mill was performed– both of which, are planned to be added to the sawmill plant in the future. One of the chapters in this thesis, deals with a certificate we obtained to characterize lumber according to wood hardness – the certificate was awarded in 2020 and represents a competitive advantage not only in Slovenia but also in the EU. The main goal of this thesis is to evaluate if the sawmill activities are economically feasible and if they lead to profits. Both investments are evaluated by using an interest rate of 4 %. The pellet mill investment would pay off in 6 yearsthe NPV reaches its first positive value which is 12.558,66 € in our case. The internal profit margin for pellet mill is 6,52 %. On the other hand, the investment in a sawmill dryer would reach a positive NPV after 3 years (21.055,57 €)
