You need to raise prices to maintain the 20% gross margin. Because you are marking up a larger number the profit would increase naturally. Why would I lower my gross margin to (15% for example) in order to maintain pricing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Including nothing which is exactly what happens or "just" your job. Living in communist Russia I got to see this efficiency first hand. Studying and living at the U in Moscow and outside my window there were three guys planting trees along the sidewalk. This happend for 2 days. On the 3rd day there were only two guys. One digging a hole and the other filling it. I asked the professor wtf and was told the guy who puts the tree in the hole must not have shown up that day. As a teen that was quite eye opening.
