Case Background
Fonderia di Torino specialized in tlie production of precision metal castings for use in automotive. aerospace. and constluction equipment. In November 2000, Francesca Cerini, managing director of Fonderia di Torino was considering to purchase Vulcan Mold-maker automated molding machine. This machine would prepare the sand molds into which molten iron was poured to obtain iron castings. The Vulcan Mold-Maker would replace an older machine and would offer improvements in quality and some additional capacity for expansion. Similar molding-machine proposals had been rejected by the board of directors for economic reasons on three previous occasions, most recently in 1999. This time, given the size of the proposed expenditure of about (euros) €1 million, Cerini was seeking a careful estimate of the projects costs and benefits and ultimately a recommendation of whether to proceed with the investment.
