Believe the point was that every cost added to producing or supplying a product needs to be offset by an increase in price if the profit is to be maintained. I only hope that the increase is an absolute dollar amount and not a percentage (e.g., 25% increase in cost of goods sold should not mean a 25% increase in profit). If you are making $5 on a sale before you should be allowed to make $5 now but not $6.25!!!
