I will pay for the following essay THE ELECTRIC TOWN CAR COMPANY. The essay is to be 4 pages with three to five sources, with in-text citations and a reference page.

The variable costs of the product amount to 2000 pounds. Based on these two figures the contribution margin of a sale of a car towards the fixed costs of the company is 3000 pounds. The total fixed costs of the company which includes overhead related to administration costs, marketing, research and development and other costs is 150 million pounds. The end result of the breakeven analysis illustrated in appendix A is the company must sell 50,000 car units per year for the revenues of the company to equal its expenses.

The pricing point chosen by the company of 5000 pounds is between 4% and 16% lower than the competition.

In order to achieve the desired ROI the company must lower its price from 5000 pounds to 4600 pounds.

It is recommended that the company operate at the 90,000 units full capacity output selling its product at 4600 pounds. At this price and output the return of investment increases to 19.68%.
