Chart 2
Considering the above information and the information provided by Jacobi, I would
recommend he invest the $10,000 in the online site for Harley Davidson NY. Investing in
the online store provides greater returns on the average expenditure per gear sale
online ($2,651) and has a higher gross profit value ($6,993). Further there is the
potential to reach a much larger audience when having a strong online presence, thus
investing in having a more compressive e-commerce store should remain a priority.
Something to take into consideration is that the total percentage increase in average
online sale was lower than the average in-store sale. This may allude to potential
growth in average instore sale amount, that could exceed the average online spend in-
time. However given the current parameters and societal trends, I would recommend
investing in the online platform.

I too believe that customers are willing to pay at least $375 for this product,
and as such I would recommend that Jacobi stock this product. This
recommendation has been made as it has been determined that 95% of
customers will pay at least $375, which aligns with Jacobi’s minimum profit
margin of 37.5%.
