Use Calc Plot Workbooks
To Plan Pricing Strategies


Are you planning to increase or decrease the price of a product?
Before you act, you should know precisely where your unit sales
must be so that your new profit margin is no worse than it is today.
These Excel workbooks provide that information.

The charts on this page tell you where your new unit sales must be to leave your gross profits unchanged after you raise or lower prices.

Obviously, your unit sales must do better than staying even if your new prices will make money for your company. But this chart provides the value that you must beat.

This package includes two Excel workbooks. Both rely on the Stay-Even Formula for price changes...

...which we explain in the article, Should You Raise Prices? Or Should You Lower Them?.

One workbook contains the completed reports that the article explains how to create. Getting this workbook will save you the hours of work needed to duplicate the figures that article describes.

The figure above shows one of the two displays that the first workbook contains.

The second workbook contains two equivalent figures designed to be printed on a full-size page.

The presentations in this workbook are designed to be used for actual pricing analysis.

Here's how you use either chart after you print it:

  • Find your current gross profit margin on the X axis.
     
  • Run your finger tip up the chart until it touches the curve that represents the percentage price increase or decrease that you're considering.
     
  • Move your finger horizontally to the Y axis. The percentage you find is your worst-case decrease in unit sales for a price increase, or your minimum-required increase in unit sales for a price cut.

If you think that your price increase will cause unit sales to fall by a larger percentage, or if your price cut won't increase sales by the required percentage, then you probably shouldn't raise prices.

Calc Plots are superior to numeric calculations for brainstorming, because you can see the results of all possible calculations easily. At a glance, you can balance the effects changes in prices, margins, and sales volume. This isn't possible to do with numeric calculations.

The price for this set of workbooks is only $19.95.
