marketing arithmetic

Question description

 

    • If the retail price is fixed at $1.00, what effect does increasing the retail and wholesale margins have on the manufacturer's selling price? Explain why this is the case.
    • Define unit contribution in your own words. Is a high or low unit contribution preferable for profitability? Justify your answer.
    • How do increases in the retail and wholesale margins (again, with a fixed retail price) affect the unit contribution? Be sure to explain why.
    • If you increase any of the fixed cost factors, what happens to 1) the number of units the company needs to sell to break even and 2) the market share necessary to break even? If fixed costs rise, is this good, bad, or of no importance? Explain your answer.
    • What change (increase or decrease) to the following factors increases the profit impact and why?
      • Retail margin/unit
      • Brand market share
      • Advertising budget
    • Many marketing decisions have multiple implications. For example, while increasing price improves profit per unit, too large a price increase may decrease unit sales, ultimately decreasing profits overall. Keeping this kind of tradeoff in mind, explain how changes to the three factors mentioned in the prior question could potentially conflict with one another in terms of strategy for increasing the profit impact.
