[Jayhawk-chapter] Regarding our fund raising project, selling the Worlds Finest Chocolate bars.

[Chikako Mochizuki]

Hello Everyone,
It was good to see you-all this afternoon.  Because we wanted to enjoy Mr. Michael McCary's useful show and tell knowledge base presentation as soon as possible something rather important completely slipped from my mind to mention during our chapter meeting; my apology.  Regarding the Worlds Finest Chocolate bars, as we decided we purchased eight boxes of chocolate bars.  This is the minimum purchase the company requires for a purchase with fund raising purpose.  As I was told by a company representative it was possible to purchase boxes of a specified chocolate bars of our preference instead of assorted bars; however, as I made the purchase it became apparent that was not the case.  Therefore, our purchase ended with eight aboxes of assorted chocolate bars just as the same as last year.  Each box contains 50 chocolate bars.  Last year the cost of one bar was 50 cents.  This year it is 60 cents.  Last year we got 50 percent profit by selling those chocolates for $1.00 per bar.  This year we are getting 40percent profit because of 10-cent-raise.  The amount of sale price per bar the company requires is still$1.00 per bar this year and it is printed on outside of each box.  Should we sell for a dollar per chocolate bar?  Or should we raise the cost as (for instance) to $1.20 per bar for 50 percent profit?  Please let us know of your thoughts on this.  I personally think it is agreeable for us to raise the price as a seller, but as a buyer I like the price of a dollar even for per chocolate bar.  What are your thoughts?
Sincerely,


Chikako Mochizuki
