What of the quality cost?

The concept of quality costs is a means to quantify the total cost of quality-related efforts and deficiencies. It was first described by Armand V. Feigenbaum in a 1956 Harvard Business Review article.[1] Prior to its introduction, the general perception was that higher quality requires higher costs, either by buying better materials or machines or by hiring more labor.[2] Furthermore, while cost accounting had evolved to categorize financial transactions into revenues, expenses, and changes in shareholder equity, it had not attempted to categorize costs relevant to quality. By classifying quality-related entries from a company's general ledger, management and quality practitioners can evaluate investments in quality based on cost improvement and profit enhancement

What is a good profit margin for a retailer?

"the higher the better.

but anywhere between 20 to 40% is good

10 to 20% is ok

One must consider:

If you are a store that performs keystone (200% markup), then you are selling the item for twice it's value, and the other half of that goes into labor, utilities, rent, restocking, and advertising. When it's all said and done, according to the Michigan Retailers Association (2010) stated:

"an average 3.5 percent net profit for independent [retail] stores in 1999..."

I have also heard that most stores get around 2%.

What I am seeing today is disgusting. Companies are raising prices, hiring employees at the minimal dollar (many situations where the one job is not enough), and working the minimally paid labor force harder to compensate for a smaller work force. On top of that, a great deal of companies are outsourcing and buying oversees to reduce the overhead.

People wonder what is straining the economy. THIS is your answer.

Just because you can, doesn't mean you should. Please care about other human beings and the life sustainability of humankind. Every time I see a yacht, I think of how many people can barely afford to eat macaroni and cheese dinner so this clown can have this unnecessary expense. Many of these people probably claim to be Christians, amidst their gluttony.

So my answer is this, while you can increase your profit margins over 2%, consider your impact on others' lives with every choice that you make.
