Have you conducted a marginal cost analysis comparing the cash received, to deposit versus credit card deduction of 1 to 2% when paid by a credit card directly? In my opinion, when considering marginal benefits, cash payment seems to be more advantageous. This is because depositing cash in a bank might not incur significant costs. Additionally, it's worth exploring the option of using UPI or QR code for payments, as they do not entail any charges and allow for receiving the full amount. For cash Risk - Create proper Reconciliation method will solve the issues.

Or the manufacturer could go from B2B to DTC and now instead of earning a 25% margin, they earn a 62.6%. Even if they lower their prices and spend on building websites, they would still be able to attain a 50% margin within 2 years.

makes me want to barf in my mouth. the mckinsey consultants i work with have messed up all the numbers in their final reports (they might as well be made up) and come up with the most obvious recommendations possible. put that in your 4 x 4 matrix and your shit toothed grin when you present.

Hello Elaine, you probably don't remember me, but we worked at BIA many moons ago. I was in the IT department, and I think you were an intern at the time. You had come to my desk a few times while you were there... Anyway, just thought I'd randomly say hi more than 7 years later.

Paying with a card would increase your receivables by increasing the time you need to cash in the money, therefore your working capital would INCREASE and would have to be financed.

@davidj7056
@davidj7056 3 жыл бұрын
Hi Anna! David here, hope I can help to explained why the interviewee only using VC while calculating BEP. Breakeven Point means that our investment towards the business have paid off by the profit we gain from that particular business. And the profit we get from doing a business is actually a gross profit (unit*(price - VC)). That way to calculate BEP we use this formula: Initial investment/(#Unit sold*(price-Var Cost)) Regarding your questions about Fix Cost, I think in some case there are annual fix cost (eg. renting the distribution channel/warehouse/etc.), to handle that we should ask the interviewer whether this 'variable cost' is total annual cost per year divided by total unit sold or just cost of good sold manufactured.. if it is just cost of good sold manufactured, the formula to calculate BEP must elaborate the fix cost in to the calculation so the calculation of BEP will be something like this: BEP = Investment/Annual Profit from the Business =Initial Investment/[(#UnitSold*(Price-VarCost)) - Annual Fix Cost) Hope this help!

Thanks for sharing the video! A couple of things the candidate can improve. First of all, the passion, doesn’t seem that this candidate is curious enough and enthusiastic about doing consulting. Secondly, the initial structure is not very organised when I just listen to it. He can number each branch or bucket. Thirdly, the candidate should walk through the calculation with and put the initial formulation upfront to the interviewer.
