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.
Answer:
The maximum investment is $6,360.111
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
The placement of a new surface would reduce the annual maintenance cost to $500 per year for the first 3 years and to $1000 per year for the next 7 years. After 10 years the annual maintenance would again be $2500.
We need to find the net present value. The maximum initial investment will be the amount that makes the NPV cero.
NPV=∑[Cf/(1+i)^n]
Cf= cash flow
<u>For example:</u>
Year 1= 500/1.05= 476.19
Year 3= 500/1.05^3= 431.92
Year 5= 1,000/1.05^5= 783.53
NPV= 6,360.111
The maximum investment is $6,360.111
