And maybe it was a bad weather month so another -1.Then once you know if it was profit or loss, roll d20 multiplied by 100 to find the amount.Or whatever. My point being, it let's the characters actions play a part ( determining modifiers for profit or loss) but it otherwise assumes that capable managers are doing the day to day decisions and micromanaging.You could also make a npc ( Jarvis or whatever) who is the 'face' of the middle managers and gives the pics the monthly reports and plot hook ideas</blockquote>
