ABSTRACT:
The case revolves around a September 2019 decision dilemma faced by Hasan Khan, a cattle fattening farm owner in Kasur. While he presently operated the farm with a lot size of 50 animals, Hasan knew that the current capacity of the farm easily allowed him to operate with 100 animals. Although he liked managing the farm, Hasan was concerned about its profitability. He had a feeling that increasing the size of each lot to 100 animals would increase the profits but not to a level where the returns would justify his time and financial investment. He believed that it was time to think about the long-term sustainability of this venture, which he suspected was linked with expanding the scale of the farm. The expansion, however, involved significant costs and he was not certain if the financial returns would be lucrative enough. (approved 29-June-2020)
