Selling price is P400 with an estimated market demand of 104,000 units.
‘+ From past advertising data, a budget in advertising of P2.5 M means a 65 % market penetration
or (104,000 x .65) equal to 67,600 units.
* Profit before tax is P3.64 M, 13 % of sales amount.
Last year’s G & A expense of 15 % was adopted and a project manager will be assigned.Discussion:
President: For market share, reduce price to P250 with demand at 200,000 units, & advertising at P5 M.
Production manager: Quantity over 75,000 units will push variable costs from P150 to P200 per unit due
to overtime and subcontracting. 500,000 in addition to the P4 M needed for new machinery.
Finance manager: Secure profit and sell at P500 with market demand at about 40,000 units.
Direction:
1. Compute profit at selling prices of P250, P300, P350, P400, P450, & P500 with ad cost of P5 M.
2. Repeat the computations for an ad cost of P2.5M. Create a graph of Price vs. Profit.
* Which selling price do you recommend, and why?
Hint: An additional model showing Market Demand & Selling Price is needed.
Equation ofa straight line: Y= m*X +b is converted to Market Demand = m * Selling Prices b
