[quote=Anonymous]I am living for all this drama on my FYP! It was such an entertaining weekend.

I've said it over and over: no American manufacturing can compete with China. Chinese manufacturers make our products for pennies to ensure we have maximum profitability. Our intermediary works to keep costs low for us.

I don't think Americans truly understand the savings of manufacturing in China or other countries.

My small company has 4 products:
Product A: produced by China for $0.71 ea
Product B: produced by China for $0.93 ea
Product C: produced by China for $1.92 ea
Product D: Produced by China for $3.45 ea

If we do 1000 units of each product, our costs are:
A: $710
B: $930
C: $1920
D: $3450
Total: $7010

Even with paying a 104% tariff, it's still cheaper for us than when we manufactured in the US.

Here are the prices we sell these products for:
A: $19.95 -> $19.24 ea profit x 1000 units sold = $19,240 total profit 
B: $29.95 -> $29.02 ea profit x 1000 units sold = $29,020 total profit
C: $39.95 -> $38.03 ea profit x 1000 units sold = $38,030 total profit
D: $49.95 -> $46.50 ea profit x 1000 units sold = $46,500 total profit

When we had an American manufacturer, our costs were so much higher and our profit was so much less. [/quote]
