Knowing she has sold 5,000 pairs, assume the company wants to launch a Black Friday promotion, where she would discount her shoes by 10%. How many more shoes would she have to sell to justify this promotion?
A. 25.13% more shoes
B. 20.08% more shoes
C. None of the above, but I could calculate this with the information I am given.
D. None of the above, I cannot calculate this with the information I am given.
Answer:
Option A. 25.13% more shoes
Explanation:
Cost Benefit analysis would be useful here to acknowledge what percentage of shoe sales is required to justify the promotion.
<u>The Benefit drawn before 10% promotion proposal:</u>
Revenue: $500,000
Shoes: ($250,000)
Shoe boxes: ($1,000)
Advertising: ($500)
Rent: ($1,000)
Depreciation: ($25)
Profit $247,475
<u>The Benefit drawn before 10% promotion proposal:</u>
Revenue: $450,000
Shoes: ($250,000)
Shoe boxes: ($1,000)
Advertising: ($500)
Rent: ($1,000)
Depreciation: ($25)
Profit $197,475
Now we can calculate how much additional sales must be required to justify the promotion.
Sales Increase Required = (Initial Profit - Before Promotion) / Profit After Promotion
Sales Increase Required = ($247,475 - $197,475) / $197,475
Sales Increase Required = 25.31% which is close to option 1, hence Option 1 is correct here.
Natalie wants to make a 25% profit on a $70000 sale. That would be:
(125 ÷ 100) × 70000 = $87500.
Natalie wants to make $87500. But the agent would charge a 6% for the sale, Natalie will add a 6% to the $87500, that would be:
(106 ÷ 100) * 87500 = $92750.
On this $92750, there's a closing cost of $1200,
Add $92750 + $1200 = $93950.
$93950 to the nearest hundred will be $94000.
Natalie should make the final sale price $94000 in order to make a profit of %25.
