Marks:
1) Product Selection and data collection
I have opted for KFC, a renowned American fast-food giant known for its non-vegetarian specialties, as the company
for this Cost Analysis (CA). To gather data on customer preferences regarding prices, I conducted a survey using
Google Forms and received responses from various individuals. The insights obtained from this survey will be
instrumental in shaping the cost analysis and determining optimal pricing strategies for KFC's offerings.

Price Reversal Case
1. Calculate Price Difference: Subtract the actual price from the offered price.
Formula: Price Difference = Offered Price - Actual Price
2. Compute Consumer Surplus: Use the formula: Consumer Surplus = MAX(Price Difference, 0)
3. Identify Product Label for Maximum Surplus: Formula: Product Label = IF(M12>0, MATCH(M12,F12:L12,0),0)
5. Calculate Reversal Cases: Formula: Reversal Cases = popcorn chicken- (boneless + hot wings )
8. Apply Solver for Optimization: Use Solver to maximize the Total Margin, adjusting the product offered prices with
constraints: <=500 and >=1.
9. Post-Solver Results: After Solver execution, product prices will be optimized to achieve the maximum Total Margin
with a penalty sum reduced to zero.
