1. What is Average Selling Price (ASP)?

Average Selling Price (ASP) is a key business metric that represents the average price at which a product or service is sold over a specific period. It is calculated by dividing total revenue by the number of units sold.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the ASP formula:

\[ ASP = \frac{\text{Total Revenue}}{\text{Units Sold}} \]

Where:

\( ASP \) — Average Selling Price (currency per unit)
\( \text{Total Revenue} \) — Total sales revenue in GBP
\( \text{Units Sold} \) — Total number of units sold

Explanation: This simple division gives you the mean price per unit sold, providing insights into pricing strategy effectiveness and market positioning.

3. Importance of ASP Calculation

Details: ASP is crucial for businesses to understand their pricing power, monitor price trends, analyze product mix effectiveness, and make informed decisions about pricing strategies and product development.

4. Using the Calculator

Tips: Enter total revenue in GBP and the number of units sold. Ensure both values are positive (revenue ≥ 0, units sold > 0) for accurate calculation.
