To check on your Researched Product Calculations or to create new Researched Product Calculation, click on the left hand navigation link. This will show your list of existing Researched Product Calculations.
If you have pages of Calculations, you can use the Filters to search for the one you want.
Clicking on the ASIN link will move you to the Common Information on the Researcher App. Full information can be found in the Researcher Application help pages.
To create a new Researched Product Calculation, click on the Create button.
This will open a new page where you will need to select the relevant Product from the drop down list of your researched list of Products. Then you will need to give your Calculation a name in case you want to do more than one variable for the same Product. This is a mandatory field and needs to be completed before saving.
Once you have selected the Product, the Stock Location will default to the Amazon Marketplace that you found your Product in. You can amend this if needed by choosing a different country from the drop down box.
The Sales Price will automatically populate with the relevant currency for the Stock Location showing. However, the default currency for the Cost Price will display in USD$. When inputting the Cost Price, if your Cost Price is in another currency, just select the correct currency from the drop down box.
For Researched Products, you are able to calculate the profit for all Marketplace currencies that we operate in. Once you Save your calculation, you are still able to Edit the calculation and change the currency.
The calculations in all currencies can be seen for that Product from the View mode which is covered off in the View information further down.
Enter the dimensions of your Researched Product.
The Units Per Outer and Duty Rate are automatically populated to default figures but can be amended and should be kept as accurate as possible, as this will affect your inward fulfilment cost per unit.
Please bear in mind the maximum Amazon limits for Units Per Outer/Master Carton. They advise that there should be no more than 150 units per Outer/Master Carton.
The duty rate will default to 5%, however please make sure you check the duty rate for your Product based on the commodity code. If a duty rate and tariff applies to your Product, enter in the total for both.
Inputting an incorrect duty rate will affect your profitability calculation.
Once you have entered all the relevant information, click on Calculate and all the fields will be populated. You can Save this calculation or just click back on the Profit Calculator icon on the left navigation.
If you Save your calculation, you will be taken back to your list of Researched Product Calculations and your latest calculation will appear here.
Once you have created Live Product Calculations, you can choose to View, Edit or Delete them.
When you click on View, you will be able to view the calculation for your Product in various currencies. Just click on the Flag tabs to switch between the currencies. This will also change the Stock Location.
The Cost Price shows two figures - the USD$ cost on the left and then the Stock Location currency on the right. If this happens to be the USA, then the two figures will be the same.
From your main Researched Product Calculations list, when you click on Edit, you will be able to change all the editable fields on the left side. Click on Calculate again to revise the figures and then Save before exiting this Calculation, otherwise you will lose the information.
If you change the information, when you Save, you will overwrite your original calculation even if you rename it.
Clicking on Delete will just remove the calculation from the list.
