This is useful for a company when making a decision about whether to go into production or not. In its simplest form, you can calculate Margin Potential as: Margin Potential = Maximum Price - Minimum Unit Costs Price Use the information table below to find the maximum price that customers deem acceptable. You can find this in the Customer Buying Criteria for each segment.
