The Automated Economy – Correction and Updated Analysis
Recently, Borg News published an analysis of the Automated Economy and the value generated by company automation.
The article showed that a Level 7 company generates:
🏭 168 PP per day
💰 13.44 Gold per day
Based on the formula:
1 PP = 0.08 Gold
The analysis was correct.
But it was not complete.
The Missing Piece
Shortly after publication, community member Arhhangel pointed out an important detail:
"You didn't include the automation bonus."
After reviewing the calculations, it became clear that he was absolutely right.
The original article did not include the +50% Production Bonus applied to automated production.
This changes everything.
Updated Numbers
With the Production Bonus included:
Level 7 Company
🏭 Base Production:
168 PP/day
🏭 With +50% Production Bonus:
252 PP/day
💰 Gold Value:
20.16 Gold/day
Long-Term Value
The difference becomes even more impressive when viewed over longer periods.
Level 7 Company with Production Bonus
💰 20.16 Gold per day
💰 141.12 Gold per week
💰 604.80 Gold per month
💰 7,358.40 Gold per year
That is more than 7,300 Gold worth of value annually from a single fully upgraded company.
And it still requires:
No Work Energy
No Self Work Energy
No Health
No Hunger
No manual actions
Your company simply keeps producing.
Day after day.
Month after month.
Year after year.
Why This Matters
The original conclusion remains unchanged:
Automated Production is one of the strongest long-term economic systems in War Era.
However, after including the Production Bonus, the numbers are significantly higher than originally estimated.
What previously looked powerful now appears even stronger.
The lesson is simple:
Never underestimate automation.
And never underestimate a community member who carefully reads your calculations.
Thank You, Arhhangel
Borg News would like to thank Arhhangel for spotting the missing Production Bonus and bringing the issue to our attention.

Final Borg Verdict
The Automated Economy does not sleep.
It does not require energy.
It does not require food.
And now we know it is worth even more than we originally thought.
While armies fight battles...
While players chase loot...
While journalists write articles...
The factories keep working.
🏭💰
The Automated Economy never sleeps.
