Analysis of PECS in Relation to a Practitioner

Most people of an entrepreneur as someone with dreams of becoming a titan of industry. While many would
be entrepreneurs have lofty goals, most hope only to create a successful business, whether that success spans the
globe or reaches no further than their local community and entrepreneurial activity, is a good source of livelihood
among Filipinos. Through retailing, customers can avail of goods from cheap sources near their homes.
Retailing requires a lot of other activities. Hence, the future entrepreneur should adopt an
ideal scheme prior to venturing into this kind of business.

LESS
LESSON
ON PROPER

What is retailing?
Retailing, is the process of selling merchandise and certain services to consumers. It ordinarily
involves the selling of individual units or small lots to large numbers of customers by a business set up for
that specific purpose. In the broadest sense, retailing can be said to have begun the first time one item of
value was bartered for another.
Retailing is interesting because the operator has a chance to get acquainted with the people in the
community. It is challenging because it sharpens one’s mathematical ability and
develops judgment and creativity in the effort to please and satisfy customers.

There are three activities involved in retailing, as follows:

1. Purchasing
It is the process a business or an organization uses to acquire goods or services to accomplish its
goals.

2. Receiving and Checking the Goods

Merchandise is checked as to weight, quantity, quality and other details before receiving and signing the
delivery receipts. Store the goods well.

3. Pricing the Merchandise

Price is the value that a retailer sets an article for sale.
Pricing is affected by the supply and demand for goods, the season of the year, the quality of goods and
competition from other stores.

What is Markup?
It is the difference between the cost price and the selling price.
To understand better how to compute the selling price of a product, read this example.
Jason bought 5 pieces of plywood for 1000 pesos. How much is the cost of a plywood if he would sell it?

Here’s how it is done:

The cost of 5 plywood is P1000. If she wants to have a 10 % markup, multiply P1000 by
10%.
P1000.00 x .1 P100.00
Jason would expect a profit or markup of P100.00.
To get the selling price, add the cost of the materials plus 10% markup, then divide by the number of head band bought.
Jason will get the selling price of each plywood.

Here’s how he did it:

Cost of 5 plywood P1000.00 10% markup 100.00
Total P1100.00
P1100 divided by 5 (number of plywood) = Selling price

The selling price per plywood is P 220.00. He imposed only a 10% markup in order to sell the plywood because he
already has a profit.
