Question.5444 - Discussion Topic: Week 6: Case Discussion - Q1: Zentein Nutrition Inc. - Project Team 12 NOTE: The Zentein Nutrition case can be accessed in the course packet you purchased from HBP.The objective of this week's Q1 discussion question (from the Eco7 case) is to apply some of the concepts that you learned from your study of pricing (HBP: Pricing Strategy, pp. 32-38, and Kroff lecture- Economics of Pricing). Specifically, you will be demonstrating your ability to calculate costs, revenues, profits, and margins based on the availability of select information.Q1- Unlike prior discussions, your ultimate goal of this one is to come up with one completed "Contribution Analysis and Projected Profitability" worksheet for your assigned discussion group. There are two steps to completing Q1:Step 1: Carefully familiarize yourself with the Zentein case and then complete your own own worksheet. Prior to beginning your work on the worksheet, carefully review the recording below, where you will find specific instructions along with tips for completing the worksheet. For help in completing the worksheet, you should refer to section 2.4. (Setting the Price) of the HBP reading, Pricing Strategy. Perhaps of equal or more value, you should review the Kroff lecture entitled, "Economics of Price" where I use an example to illustrate needed key concepts. NOTE: Simply posting a blank worksheet to allow yourself access to the posts of others will result in a zero for the entire Q1 discussion. Initial posts will be graded based on perceived effort in completing your worksheet along with descriptions of how answers were calculated. Wrong answers will not be penalized as long as an explanation is given for how those answers were calculated.Step 2: Once your individual worksheet is submitted (which will be your original post), you will be able to see the submitted worksheets of other members of your group. You can then compare worksheets and work together to develop one completed worksheet for the group. This should be done by communicating with each other in the discussion thread. Once you all agree on your group's final completed workshop, one member of the group needs to attach it as the final comment in your discussion with a clear declaration that it is your group's final worksheet. Besides your initial posts, your participation in your group's discussion along with the accuracy of the final, completed worksheet will also contribute to your overall individual Q1 discussion grade. Be sure to include an explanation of how you came up with the answers in your final completed worksheet. FINAL NOTE: This assignment should be completed without searching Google or other sources to find a completed worksheet from the case. I obviously can't monitor this but you will only be preventing your own learning and the learning of your group members by cheating. So, please play fair.ZenteinBars_Case_WorksheetDownload ZenteinBars_Case_WorksheetWorksheet OverviewEconomics of Pricing
