Charge shipping

Could we not decide to charge for shipping in products below ten euros and assume a reduction in revenues for these items? I assumed a reduction from 180 million to 150 million in revenue for these products and calculated how much we would save in shipping costs using the sales distribituin percentage and the shipping costs per sale,

Thank you

Hi there,

Could you flag the exact point in the case which you are referencing?

In general, where data is provided, you cannot assume. Where data is NOT provided, you can estimate with reasonable logic.

Hi Vasco! 

Can you provide a bit more granularity on the question? I'm struggling to help you without understanding the question better within the context of the case. Any exhibits would also help. 

Best,
Cristian
