Finding the maximum amount of profit you can generate from one unit of a product is called Margin Potential. This is useful for a company when making a decision about whether to go into production or not. In its simplest form, you can calculate Margin Potential as: Margin Potential = Maximum Price - Minimum Unit Costs

Use the information table below to find the maximum price that customers deem acceptable.
