1 Part: Taxation
Many people can't think of it. In fact, the biggest cost is tax, accounting for about 40%. There are mainly value-added tax, consumption tax, purchase tax, land tax and local education tax. Basically, the car tax is between 35% and 40, which varies slightly according to different countries/regions. Percentage of the total car price. Compared with the automobile tax of 2% to 8% in the United States (which varies greatly from state to state), the automobile tax in Japan is unified at 7.5%, which is actually much lower. This is also one of the reasons why foreign cars are cheap.
Part II: Profit
Profits can be divided into two parts: the profits of automobile manufacturers and the profits of dealers. For mainstream family cars with a market price of 654.38+10,000 yuan, the manufacturer will keep the profit at around 10% to prevent excessive deviation. The banker's profit is 10%. % (general dealers and 4S stores), but some unpopular models have reduced profits. Suppose all the profits of the car add up to 20%.
Part 3: Fees
Taxes and fees have been reduced by 40% and profits have been reduced by 25%. Will the cost of making cars remain the same? No, the cost of a car is only 35%, because the cost of advertising and public relations is only 5%. In other words, the automobile manufacturing cost of 6,543,800 yuan is 35,000 yuan. In terms of cost, the engine accounts for 15%, the gearbox accounts for 10%, the electronic control system accounts for 15%, the chassis accounts for 10%, and the rest are body panels and interiors.
Do you feel sad? This is the production cost of the family car, which is even worse for the joint venture. All joint ventures must pay technology transfer fees to foreign investors. This expense is generally not disclosed by the automobile company, but in the automobile industry where the author is located, you can always consult your acquaintances. Every time Volkswagen sells a car, it needs to pay about 10% of foreign capital to pay for technology transfer. Beijing Hyundai Motor also accounts for 8% to 10%. How do you make money? It's just the trouble of manufacturing cost.
The joint venture has increased the technology transfer cost by about 65,438+00%, so it is necessary to "save" the production costs such as post-collision beam saving and electronic stability control ESP saving to ensure the profits of the manufacturers (overseas). ESP is absolutely not allowed to be saved. Saving a small part of each car and all the profits, such as saving the soundproof cotton in the trunk, saving the independent suspension of the chassis and saving the engine guard, will save you money, but the disadvantages will definitely be the general public.
