Gas Pumps
If a tanker fills the gas pumps in the morning, how can the price fluctuate on a daily basis?
The gas was bought at one price yet, they aren't filling it with new gasoline daily.
I think I will run my business like that. Having disgruntled customers cursing me and complaining yet lining my pockets with their money.
I'm in the wrong business!
THIS WORKS THE SAME FOR ANY BUSINESS. LETS SAY YOU SELL PAINT. YOU HAVE 100 GALLONS OF PAINT IN INVENTORY. YOU PAID $10.00 PER GALLON, AND SELL IT FOR $14.95 PER GALLON. THE DISTRIBUTOR CALLS AND SAYS "HEY, BLAH BLAH AND BECAUSE OF THE GREEN MONKEY PAINT SHORTAGE WE HAVE TO DOUBLE OUR PRICE." THIS MEANS IF YOU SELL ALL YOUR 100 GALLONS AT $14.95 YOU WILL ONLY HAVE $1495.00 (BEFORE OVERHEAD AND SUCH). YOU WILL ONLY BE ABLE TO REPLACE ABOUT 75 GALLONS OF YOUR PAINT IN INVENTORY. TO MAKE SURE YOU CAN GET 100 GALLONS OF PAINT YOU NEED TO RAISE YOUR PRICE TO OVER $20.00 PER GALLON SO YOU WILL BE ABLE TO REPLACE YOUR INVENTORY WITH NEW STOCK AND STILL HAVE ADEQUATE INVENTORY TO SERVE YOUR CUSTOMERS. IF YOU PAID LESS FOR WHAT YOU ARE CURRENTLY SELLING, YOU STILL NEED TO MAKE IT UP SO YOU WILL BE ABLE TO REPLACE IT WITH THE SAME AMOUNT WHEN IT IS GONE.
