Question 1A: To answer this question, the number and value of the units are calculated, like the method used by the Pasta (Exhibit 5) showed below.
As you can see in the table showed above is the forecast of the total number of units 1,179 + 0,940 = 2,119 million units. The total value of this demand is $ 26,230 million. These values are based on the assumption that it is a excellent product with a market penetration of 11%.
Question 1B: The forecast shown in Table B is based on assumptions. By launching a product it is better to look to the demand of the product in different ways. So looking to the results of different assumptions. In the table below is the sensitivity analysis of the pizza shown.
