100 reduced by 30% is 70.
70 increased by 30% is 91.
100 reduced by 23% is 77.
77 increase by 30% is 100.
Be honest please.
I wasn't be dishonest, but you are right, a 23% reduction would do it, so I stand corrected. But still I only see 8% of hard savings and a potential for 2-4% more. That means:
100 reduced by 10% is 90
90 increased by 30% is 117
So maybe a 17% increase in prices is where we will be at, which isn't that far out of the about 20% I said.
