In-depth Use Case / Real-world Example

Discount Impact Analysis evaluates how price reductions influence sales and margins. For instance, a manufacturer may offer a 10% discount to boost sales volume for a new product. If the sales increase by 25%, but the profit margin decreases by 15%, the company can assess whether the trade-off in margin is worth the additional volume. This analysis helps sales teams and executives decide when and how much to discount, ensuring that it aligns with profitability goals. In the manufacturing industry, where product margins can be thin, understanding the true impact of discounts is essential for maintaining sustainable growth.
