Determinación de Costos para la producción tecnificada de Cobayos (Cavia porcellus) de la granja Bello Páramo, del cantón Saraguro

The study conducted at the "Bello Paramo" farm in the Saraguro canton focused on the determination of costs for the technified production of guinea pigs. The main objectives of the research included the analysis of costs and income in guinea pig breeding; determining the cost/benefit ratio; and, determining the profitability of production. The methodology employed included an interview with the farm's owner-manager, using deductive, descriptive, analytical, and synthetic methods. The research was exploratory, with a non-experimental design. The result of the research shows an initial investment of $27,340.00 which includes the construction of 2 sheds (fixed assets) and the acquisition of 592 reproducers (biological assets); the annual expenses were $37,560.47, regarding the distribution of costs, labor represents 60.95% of the total costs; feed constitutes 24.84% in balanced feed and 3.16% in forage feed. The unit cost of a 21-day-old calf is $2.27 and a 75-day-old calf is $8.00. Annual income of $62,928.00 was obtained from the sale of guinea pigs as breeding feet, meat and curinasa. A profit/cost ratio of 1.50 was determined, which indicates that for every dollar invested there is a profit of $0.50. When performing a profitability analysis, the project yields an NPV of $42,501.11; an IRR of 64% and a payback time TR of 1.55; the profitability indicators present a highly favorable scenario for the project, being viable in the long term.
