INTRODUCTION
The production function deals with determining what product or service to produce, how the raw material and equipment are to be obtained, acquiring layout and maintaining the physical facilities needed for the operation.
It involves changing input getting output at a very reasonable cost at the right quality price and time Before an entrepreneur get into business one of the things he must consider before getting into business is to develop a production plan.
The entrepreneur has to think of the products colors, shape, models, and kind of raw materials to be used and in what proportion.
What is the most appropriate technology required machines to be purchased leased or borrowed and what infrastructure facilities must be available before production actually starts. Any mistake that the entrepreneur makes at this point of planning stage count to be too costly.
