Calculation method

Current contribution = orders × (basket × margin − old subsidy). New = orders × (1 − loss) × [(basket + uplift) × margin − new subsidy].

Assumptions and limitations

  • Example inputs are editable scenarios, not Aryo results or independently verified industry benchmarks.
  • Use net collected sales and avoid double-counting returns, commissions or pass-through charges. Demand and customer behavior require validation.
