Model assumptions

8 assumptions

  • The 500 mg strength is treated as approximately 75 g of ginseng material for 150 capsules, based on the stated 1,000 mg per two-capsule serving.
  • Korean red Panax ginseng raw material is estimated at bulk commercial pricing; any concentrated extract or higher-grade ginsenoside standardisation could raise the ingredient cost materially.
  • Capsules are assumed to be standard HPMC vegetable capsules purchased in commercial bulk quantities.
  • Packaging is assumed to be a small HDPE or similar bottle, cap, induction seal and printed label; the exact packaging is not documented.
  • Filling, encapsulation, batch handling and quality-control costs are estimated using contract supplement manufacturing economics.
  • Freight and modest import-duty/customs costs are included on the assumption that the finished product is shipped into the UK from outside the UK. VAT is excluded because it is generally a recoverable or pass-through tax rather than a manufacturing cost.
  • Marketing, retailer margin, corporate profit, advertising and unrelated corporate overhead are excluded.
  • The final manufacturing location and contract manufacturer are unknown, which is the main source of uncertainty.
