Manufacturing cost, Distributor cost and Retail cost

Post  Albert F. Ramirez on Mon 30 Jan 2012 - 11:52

Hello,
Is there a formula for estimating these costs. I would like to know if I am in the ball park with my manufacturing cost to the distributors. More specific if the retail cost is $12, then where should my manufacturing cost be to the distributor? The product is a small hand tool for the construction industry.
Thank you

Albert F. Ramirez

Hi Albert - your question is one we get asked all the time. This link will take you to the UIA Inventor Blog and explain how the math works out - or at least how it should work out. Smile
