Get 3 coins from the bank for each establishment that you own, on your turn only.

Furniture Factory is a Secondary Industry card in Machi Koro, available in the base game.

Gameplay

When the card's activation number of 8 is rolled, the player with the card gets three coins from the bank for each card with the icon he owns, on his turn only. Currently, the only cards with a icon are Forest and Mine.

Strategy

The per-turn expected value of the card depends on whether the player uses the Train Station establishment to roll two dice, and how many Forests and Mines they own (here represented as "ft/mn"):

$value = \begin{cases} 0, & \mbox{one die} \\ 3 \times 5/36 \times ft/mn, & \mbox{two dice} \\ \end{cases}$

Or:

$value = \begin{cases} 0, & \mbox{one die} \\ .41666, \times ft/mn, & \mbox{two dice} \\ \end{cases}$

Number of dice rolled	Value
	Zero cards	One card	Two cards	Three cards	Four cards	Five cards	Six cards
One	0
Two	0	0.41666	0.8333,	1.25	1.666,	2.08333,	2.5

The card's value is multiplied again by how many Furniture Factories the player owns.
