Any modifier that affects build time and IC cost, such as a minister change, an assembly-line tech, or event, has no effect on what is already in the build queue. New production orders created after the change will take into account any sort of time/cost modifiers. As of the 1.2 patch in the HoI2:Doomsday expansion, build times and costs do change.

A red number indicates you have some wasted industrial capacity .
