Rodrigo Albani de Campos gave a presentation on capacity planning at the São Paulo Perl Workshop. He discussed typical performance metrics like load average and CPU usage, but emphasized that time series data alone is not sufficient for capacity planning. He covered concepts like arrival rate, service time, and queues. De Campos demonstrated using the PDQ queuing model tool to model an Apache web server and explore "what if" scenarios. He provided several references for further reading on performance analysis and capacity planning techniques.
The document discusses key concepts related to planning profit for retailers, including cost, retail price, operating income, cost of goods sold, gross margin, operating expenses, and net operating profit. It provides examples of calculating gross sales, customer returns and allowances, net sales, and gross sales based on net sales and customer return percentage. The document also discusses evaluating buyer performance based on sales, inventory, and margin results. Finally, it discusses using profit and loss statements from a merchandiser's perspective.
most pricing decisions are made at the SKU level, yet analysed at the brand level. BLA propitiatory modeling approach to optimising SKU level pricing allows for strategic decision making.
The document discusses various types of budgets and budgeting processes used by companies for planning and control purposes. It provides an example of Breakers Inc. preparing budgets for sales, production, materials, labor, expenses, and cash for the next few months. It demonstrates how the various functional budgets integrate together and provides budgeted financial statements to evaluate the company's expected financial performance.
An awesome (yet short) slideshow that explains, in simple terms, how to calculate and use the ROI formula. Watch the video and download the workbook at http://miketurco.com/roi .
Marginal costing is a technique that differentiates between fixed and variable costs. It assigns only variable costs to cost units and writes off fixed costs for the period against total contribution. Contribution is calculated as sales revenue minus variable costs. Marginal costing is useful for decision making as it shows the effect on profit of changes in volume or product mix. Key aspects include classifying costs, calculating contribution, and using contribution to determine the break-even point where total revenues equal total costs. Marginal costing provides information on product and segment profitability without needing to allocate fixed overhead costs.
