SM E-5 Chofee: Designing Trade Scheme: Case Prepared by Prof. Surya Mahadevan For Class Discussion
Faiyaz looked at the plan and remarked “JP, can you explain how you have
constructed the plan”
JP replied “On our MRP of Rs.120 per Kg, the expected average scheme cost @

Our contribution margins are 40% and as a thumb rule we operate trade
scheme offers at 5%
With the scheme I expect secondary sales to go up by 20%. I have worked out
