- New product cost per unit
- $30.00
- New freight cost per unit
- $7.50
- Price that covers entered monthly costs

Choose how to absorb or pass on the cost increase.
How it is calculated
Apply the entered increase to product cost and freight separately. Subtract the new unit cost and monthly overhead from sales at the current price and volume.
How to use it
Compare the required price increase with supplier savings, packaging changes, new terms, bundles, or accepting a lower margin. Test customer demand before changing the price.
What this result leaves out
Sales volume is held steady. Tax, discounts, payment fees, channel fees, product mix, and stock bought before the increase are not included.
