Department 03

Acting head

Financial

Keeps the books, sets the budget, and works out how to bring an $800 quantum computer to market while funding the software around it.

What the Department Does

The Financial Department keeps the books, sets the budget, and decides how Qubibyte's money is spent. The question at the center of its work is how to release the Qubibyte Quadra at $800 while paying for the hardware development, the simulators, and the documentation that make the device worth owning.

Everything the company publishes on this site is free to use, so the Quadra and its sample vials are the products the financial plan is built around.

Areas of Work

Budgeting
Annual and project budgets for hardware development, software, and written and video material.
Accounting
Bookkeeping, financial statements, and tax filings.
Pricing
The cost model for the Quadra and its sample vials against the $800 target price.
Funding
Planning the capital needed to reach the first production run, and the investor relationships that come with it.
Controls
Spending approval, vendor payments, and records that would stand up to an audit.
