COST ESTIMATES

All estimates for the possible costs and prices of a new, yet-to-be-manufactured item are very difficult to estimate. This difficulty is due to potential variations in the costs of initial materials, the rate of production for the item, and its initial consumer demand. As a result, these estimates are very difficult to comprise.

Moreover, research on estimated costs and prices is very restricted so as to avoid improper disclosure of the Fishing Rod Holder while still in these beginning stages.

In order to provide further detailed information for consideration, however, such estimates should be offered. The "Best Estimate" enclosed within is primarily based upon pricing of similar products (when possible) by this applicable manufacturing category, current cost of necessary materials, and average value added for the applicable manufacturing industry.

These estimates are subject to change and are enclosed only to offer a preliminary means of evaluation of product value for the Fishing Rod Holder. Of course only you, the manufacturer, could properly determine the costs and prices.

The estimates on potential costs and prices for the Fishing Rod Holder, throughout the line of distributors, could be:
