This paper describes a strategy for foreign direct investment (FDI) of multinational enterprises when manufacturing costs change with time. This FDI planning problem is formulated in order to determine how many manufacturing facilities are needed in each country when they are needed, and how many products should be manufactured to meet the product demand in each country. It is assumed that both product demand and manufacturing costs in each country change with time. Finally, an algorithm for finding an optimal solution of the FDI planning problem is developed and an example is demonstrated.
