How to choose a “cost-effective” water bottle?(two)

In the last article, the editor spent a long time to introduce how to calculate the cost of a thermos cup. Today, I will continue to share with you what quality and price of water cup material is the most cost-effective?


If it is some first-line luxury brands, the premium rate will be 80-200 times. For example, if the ex-factory price of a water cup is 40 yuan, then the price of e-commerce and some offline chain stores will be 80-200 yuan.However, there are exceptions. Some well-known chain stores that are famous for their high quality and low price will control the premium rate at 1.5 times, which will be around 60 yuan. The prices of well-known water cup brands with similar styles are about 200-400, and the prices of first-line luxury brands will be 3200-8000, so that everyone can roughly know the relationship between price and cost.


Then the next editor will briefly teach you to analyze the product cost. Although it is not accurate, it can give you a reference.Nowadays, it is very convenient for people to surf the Internet. They can search for some information on the Internet when they take out their mobile phones, such as searching for the real-time price of 304 stainless steel. The price displayed on the Internet is usually the price per ton. I believe everyone knows the conversion of tons into grams.


If you don’t know, there are conversion tools on the Internet, so that we can calculate the price of one gram of 304 stainless steel. Then we look at the weight displayed in the water cup, which is the net weight.Take a thermos cup as an example. A 500ml thermos cup that has not undergone the thinning process is usually between 240 grams and 350 grams. The weight ratio of the cup lid to the cup body is about 1:2 or 1:3.


It would be even better if you happen to be able to find a scale. You can weigh the weight of the cup body and calculate the material cost according to the gram weight. The labor cost and material cost are approximately 1:1, which is the approximate cost of the cup body. The cost of the cup cover is roughly 25%-20% of the cup body, so the cost of the water cup can be roughly calculated, and then multiplied by 1.25. This 25% is not gross profit, but covers material loss and packaging material costs.


The figure obtained is probably the cost of this water cup. Of course, the cost will vary greatly depending on the production difficulty of the various accessories of the water cup. So we can calculate the profit, and the ex-factory price is converted according to the price you want based on the production cost.Of course, the lower the premium rate, the better. Look at the actual selling price for comparison, and you can roughly know whether it is worth it or not.


Speaking of which, some friends must say that quality is not the key?Yes, very critical. But many people often change their quality requirements in front of the price. If the price is very low, they will feel that there is a little problem and it can be used. High prices will further increase the quality requirements of products, and even some requirements have exceeded industry requirements.


As for how to identify the quality of the water cup, the editor has explained in detail in many previous articles, friends who need to know can read the previous articles of the editor. Finally, friends who like the editor please pay attention to the editor, your needs are the motivation for the editor to continue writing.
