How much you actually claw back
At what markdown depth does a product stop being worth selling vs liquidating? Map recovery scenarios across discount levels, find the margin floor, and identify the optimal price reduction strategy.
How each scenario is modelled
- Price = original price x (1 - markdown %).
- Monthly sales = baseline monthly sales x (1 + markdown % x elasticity / 100).
- Months to sell = units / monthly sales; holding cost accrues for that long.
- Net recovery = units x price - units x COGS - holding cost. Liquidation sells everything at the offer price immediately, with no holding cost.
