You have been given the task of determining three important decisions for this new product. First, you have been asked to determine the price for this product. Pricing is a tricky decision. You don't want to price the new tablet too high because few customers will choose the new product over your full-sized tablet offerings and you risk losing sales to your aggressively priced competitors' products. You don't want to price the product too low, because you want to earn as much revenue as possible from the product. Second, you must determine where to set the marketing budget for the new product. You know that there will be a base demand for your product that comes from your loyal customers who will buy just about anything you produce. Beyond that you also know that every dollar you spend on advertising will increase the demand for your product. Of course, there is a limit to how much money you will want to spend on advertising because eventually more money spent on advertising will have little effect on demand and will reduce the profitability of the new product. Finally, you have been asked to help decide how much money to prepay to the suppliers of the raw materials of the new product to reduce the overall costs of these materials. Every dollar you spend on prepaying your suppliers will reduce the costs of these materials and will ensure that your competitors don't have access to these materials.
