We would like to know why Cat Industries, or Cartwright Conglomerate Corporation, or Idan Corporation, or Minasa Business Services Corporation, (CCC) is not on the list. One of them is bound to at least be on the least. They're our largest companies, listed in order.

OOC: If you have a big corp. not on the list, don't whine, there was another topic about this up for two weeks where you could submit your corporations and monthly earnings.

That being said, April-May sucked for me. I already have 5 times that sold this month.

Cool. Cat Industries is like our Feles Industries (feles = cat in Latin).

Thanks. I haven't seen this list before.

Oh, and an update. Xylion industries doesn't exist anymore. It was destroyed when Feazanthia was.
Doujin
15-05-2004, 21:22
Xylion Industries still exists - it is a subsidiary of Doujinshi Corporation. Just because the Feazanthian branches were destroyed doesn't mean I have other plants. Xanthal made 263 trillion in a month? Hmm.
Crossroads Inc
15-05-2004, 21:25
As the Nation of Crossroads Inc is nothing more than a single Nation sized Mega Corporation. I am pretty sure our nation should be on the list with a GDP/Corporate Income of $25,300,000,000,000.

The Lord High CEO and all his employees hope you take this into consideration.

OOC: im just putting this out as it would be cool to be on the list. Since I actually have no idea what the real criteria is for the list, I guess it really wouldn't matter if im not on it. but what the hey

That's a cheap way to try and get on. This list is a list of storefronts; the number is how much those storefronts made.

Ok ok, point taken guys. I didn't know the Criteria and so was just curious. I DO have storefronts, but I'll be darned if anyone has ever used them :?

Thanks for the clarifactions!

BTW, how did you calculate the numbers?
Storefront owners just sent in their revenue totals (does not include cost of production, taxes, or wages) from the April 14 to May 5 period.

Are the corporations on your list required to be publicly-traded? If not, His Omniferocity is curious why Evil Overlord Enterprises was omitted. EOE has extensive trade connections across the globe, serving approximately 5 Billion customers (including the 2.7 billion EOE Citizen/Shareholders).
No, they do not have to be publicly-traded. The reason why you aren't on the list is because you didn't send in your revenue totals (does not include cost of production, taxes, or wages) from the April 14 to May 5 period.

We would like to know why Cat Industries, or Cartwright Conglomerate Corporation, or Idan Corporation, or Minasa Business Services Corporation, (CCC) is not on the list. One of them is bound to at least be on the least. They're our largest companies, listed in order.

You didn't send in your revenue totals (does not include cost of production, taxes, or wages). The sign-up thread was up everyday for 9 days. You can always apply for the next issue (May 6 through 27).

Oh, and an update. Xylion industries doesn't exist anymore. It was destroyed when Feazanthia was.
Feazanthia was one of the first to send his in. He sent it before he was destroyed.

The next signup thread will be posted on May 28th probably around 1 or 2 a.m.

I could probably make it on that list, although I don't export wildly...and I have lots of corporations that make military supplies. I also can't be bothered with calculating sales...but anyways, nice list.

Fortune: Doujinshi Corporation owns Xylion Industries, so Xylion should have been included under Doujinshi Corporation.

Doujin, I have a question. Did you include sales to the Doujin government as part of your revenue?
Doujin
16-05-2004, 04:48
No, I didn't - I should have. That would have increased revenue by a.. bunch.

OOC: Man... wish I kept my old storefront I had... oh well... I'll have to start a new one some time... btw, how would you figure in services, such as airlines, since there is no "storefront"... ViZionair is the largest airline in ViZion, and most likely one of the top ones on NS... and are you only doing modern-tech companies, or what?

Nice list - I would apply for the next issue but a) the sales we make wouldn't come very high in the list as it's deliberately dirt-cheap military surplus and b) It's sold by the government and so not a business at all.

Hopefully by the time the next one or the one after rolls around the two biggest companies in my nation, the Turvic Corporation (cars, planes, fast food, record labels, basically everything) and Izborski Industries (freighters, shipping, heavy industry) will have a few things to offer (I know for a fact they've got some big projects on the drawing board ;)) - So watch this space.

Still, a very good concept, though I'm sure you've heard that a lot before.

OOC: 700 billion? Well, let's see - 6 Doujin Classes at 225 billion per ship.. not to mention new Centaur Classes, and other ships.. more than 700 billion :P

OOC: Pft, where are you getting the money for that? Your budget is $600 billion smaller than mine. Then again, you probably have a shorter NS year than I. I use an ungodly long 21 RL days, you're probably going a week or so. If I shortened mine to NS standards, you're looking at....you don't wanna know.

Ah, that's where the discrepancy came from. I was referring to nat'l budget, you were referring to military budget. You're also using 15% compared to my 10%.

So in that case, I have a 800 billion dollar larger budget than you.

Doujin
16-05-2004, 05:42
They were also corrupt communist, who's workers lied on reports if they didn't meet production levels and quality. That doesn't happen in Doujin. The extra part of the National Budget spent on military is to purchase ships - which is our largets industry, boosting our economy and keeping people employed if not employing more.

Fortune: Doujinshi Corporation owns Xylion Industries, so Xylion should have been included under Doujinshi Corporation.
At the time it was first sent, Xylion Industries was owned by Feazanthia. I was not aware until now that the Doujinshi Corporation owns it.

Xylion Industries has been a subsidiary of Doujinshi Corporation since February/March.
