In today's business world, keeping track of and protecting valuable assets is very
important. In this case study, a company that sells vehicle parts is facing significant
problems with stolen goods and laptops. To help solve these issues, a suggestion has
been made to buy an electronic marking system that costs R200,000. This system will
help prevent theft of vehicle parts and accessories, as well as laptops.
My questions and answers will look at five key areas to consider when calculating the
costs of the new marking system. We will break down these costs into:
Initial Cost of the marking system and this is the cost of buying and setting up the
system.
These are the ongoing costs to keep the system running each year.
Cost of lost or stolen Items which includes the cost of replacing stolen items and any
other losses from the thefts.
These are the costs to train employees on how to use the system and to set it up
properly.
This will calculate how much profit or savings the company can expect from investing in
the new system, based on a 30% ROI goa
