"Tom has surrounded himself with astute sales & marketing gurus (I think he has, Q3 verifies it). Assuming that is true, the order of 20,000 units was predicated on a detailed sales forecast incorporating wholesale and retail requirements. NO ONE in their right minds would order 20,000 units unless they had a 90 day plan for distribution and revenue accumulation for restocking.
A further assumption would be that the minimum requirement for distribution guided by their plan would be approximately 1,000 units per week. Since Tom estimated the retail value of the incoming inventory at 1.5 mil, that would yield an average sale at $ 75.00 per unit. That, of course, would be a combination of wholesale and retail sales.
At the aforementioned sales forecast of 1,000 units per week or 4,333 per month. The revenue derived from such sales would be $ 324,975 per month.
I believe that I am being a bit conservative since the recent elections have, in fact, changed the playing field. And, I repeat, NO ONE in their right mind would order 20k without sound planning for distribution." I agree with you my friend, Go $RFMK!
