Subject：Production costs

Dear Terry，

The good news is that sales have tripled this year compared to last year's figures. The bad news is that production costs have risen five-fold over the last three years and now production costs are about 45%of our expenditure.Is there any way in which you can cut these costs significantly without affecting output?Please try your best so that we can retain our 15%profit margin.

Regards，

Andy

主題：生產成本

親愛的泰瑞：

我想告訴你的既有好消息也有壞消息。好消息是與去年的銷售數字比較，今年的銷售業(yè)績增長了兩倍；壞消息是過去的3年中，生產成本上漲了5倍，且已占到我們總開支的大約45%。你有什么辦法能夠顯著地降低成本而又不影響產出嗎？請盡最大努力，以使我們能夠保持15%的利潤率。

此致

敬禮！

安迪
