Abstract

Oil palm (Elaeis guineensis (L.) Jacq) is a crop commodity that has a tremendous economic influence on Indonesia. Apart from being the country's largest foreign exchange earner, palm oil can also support 4.2 million palm oil farmer families in Indonesia. Of the 14 million ha of oil palm land in Indonesia, at least 5.6 ha (40%) belongs to farmers (Ditjenbun, 2018). Oil palm plants produce fruit commonly known as fresh fruit bunches (FFB) which will be processed into palm oil. Palm oil is a compound that does not dissolve in air, while its main components are triglycerides and non-triglycerides. Palm oil has enormous potential for use in various sectors. For the food sector, palm oil is widely used as cooking oil, margarine and various other food ingredients. The non-food sector is currently still being developed, especially as oleochemicals, biodiesel, and various materials for the needs of non-food industries such as the pharmaceutical industry. Oleic Acid is an unsaturated fatty acid contained in palm oil. Oleic Acid is an important part of triglycerides, namely fats and oils. Pre-plans for this Oleic Acid factory are planned to produce with a capacity of 7,000 tons/year and operate for 330 days a year. The location for the factory is planned to be Pematang Palas, Banyuasin I, Banyuasin Regency, South Sumatra, Indonesia. with the required land area of 14,456 m2. The workforce required to operate the factory is 100 people. The planned business entity form is a Limited Liability Company (PT) and the organizational form is a line and staff system organization. The results of the analysis of the economic aspects of the fatty acid manufacturing factory are: • Amount of Investment Capital: Rp. 495,848,818,380.91 ix • Total Production Costs: Rp. 360,175,803,020.2 • Sales Proceeds: Rp. 761,879,927,730.2. • Net Profit: Rp. 122.4343.104.386.24 • Profit Margin (PM): 50.09 % • Breakeven Point (BEP): 16.07% • Return on Investment (ROI): 53.89% • Pay Out Time (POT): 1.86 years • Return on Network (RON) : 89.81% • Internal Rate of Return (IRR): 27.50% From the results of the economic aspect analysis, it can be concluded that factory construction This oleic acid is worth establishing.
