Funding Proposal
Our ship deserves your funding. Not only does our ship feature a full 45 spaces on both decks for capturing Nigons and Zargots, it also comes with complimentary cup holders in the passenger and driver seats! Our transport decks are designed to be 9 units long by 5 units wide, giving a total of 45 spaces for alien pets. Because each pen costs 500 yen, the total cost for our decks is 22,500 yen.
We will be launching our ship to hunt on the moon during the winter, when Zargots travel in groups of 24 and Nigons are in groups of 18. We have enough space to capture 2 groups of Nigons, but only 1 pack of Zargots. This means that we can capture a total of 36 Nigons and 24 Zargots. This means we will be carrying a total of 60 pets (36 Nigons+24 Zargots). Each pet will sell for 300 yen back on Earth, which means our total money made from pet sales will be 60x300=18,000.
Because our cost is 22,500 yen and we will only be making 18,000 yen we are going to lose 4,500 yen each trip. Maybe this ship isn't such a good idea after all!
