Kaufmann – calculations for retailers

Get down to business! Buying and selling? Say goodbye to rough margin, cash discount, tax, reduction, and interest calculations – as a buyer, seller or distributor you’ll always have an immediate and precise overview of all your figures.

Merchant is your flexible calculator: you select the calculation and enter the figures you know – Merchant tells you the rest.

This app offers everything you typically need to calculate or know during negotiations quickly, precisely, and above all spontaneously.

This includes the sales tax rates of 59 countries* as well as special tax rates and taxation types covering a wide range of industries (food, agriculture).

Always calculate your figures in advance? Great! But how often have you faced unforeseen problems?

- I need the unit price but only have the package weight price.
- I know my margin and the price at which I can sell: at which price do I need to buy?
- My supplier gives me a reduction and a cash discount but I’ve got to factor in delivery costs. How does that alter my buying price? 
- As a manufacturer, what margin is left over for me once I’ve deducted the retailer’s and distributor’s margin as well as the manufacturing costs?

Merchant’s functions don’t stop there – it also includes a banker function which helps you calculate interest and compound interest. And even when you just want to simply add up quantities: a standard calculator offers you a helping hand.

- Which is more lucrative: a cash discount or credit interest?
- Is it worth paying the invoice on the due date?
- At which point is it worth investing given a saving of X?
