This is why we didn't hire Liva- we can't rely on such high profits every month.

Anyway, point by point:  Yay on new hull.  Let's finish up the engine and go from there.

As far as the conflict, we should keep safety in mind.  One disaster from one of our ships will put our tiny company out of business- we aren't building racers, just reliable cheap freighters.

Docks and assembly lines are freaking expensive.  I don't understand the 2nd offer, though- is that a 3-pack of assembly lines for 5k?  Do we get the blueprint if we buy three 3-packs?  Please clarify.
In any case, we have no use for the loaner dock, and the size 2 docks are out of our price range right now.  Let's wait on clarification before I advance on this one.

That's some serious usury.  I have doubts we could make enough from investments to pay that off, especially since the new docks wouldn't be ready for four months.

I think it means that they have 3 to sell and you can pay 5000 for one and get a free blueprint

yes

We. Need. Cargo. Hold.

Cargo hold = free hull points.

we should get a new production line it will increase our rate of production increasing our profits. We should also ask the bank on a delay of payments also see if we can have Tavian work on making A19 more comfortable and lets go for safer then faster we can increase our power later after this start working on making the A19 hull stronger seeing as we're in a pirate infested system armor should be first thought when making ships.

This bank will not agree for delay, you may spend a turn and search for another offers, but it's not really likely that you'll find something better.

I say we take the loan we can buy a all the production lines and upgrade a dock to size 2 so lets do some math
50,000 + 6,300  = 56,300 - 18,000 = 38,300 - (20)5,000 = (18)33,300 or we can can take the size 3 dock.

I seriously doubt we can afford the interest.

if we rent the Lv 3 dock and buy the production lines we can make a fairly large amount of weapons we can also fit the 12mm machine guns into our ships we will be making large amounts of cash even just selling the weapons to people in our system would net us a fair amount of cash also We WON'T use all the loan we'll use the cash we don't use to start paying back the loan for about the first 2 months and we would make enough cash to payback the loan.

I think that it was mentioned that we can't simply jam modules together and make a new ship. We have to research the new ship, so renting now would be useless.

Don't rent anything. Start working on a Freighter using the new hull.
