Flash Sale Profitability Analysis
Discount % = ((Regular Price – Flash Sale Price) / Regular Price) × 100
Expected Units = Daily Sales × (1 + Sales Boost % / 100)
Regular Profit = (Regular Price – Product Cost) × Daily Sales
Flash Sale Profit = (Flash Sale Price – Product Cost) × Expected Units – Deal Fee
Profit Difference = Flash Sale Profit – Regular Profit
