Designed to assist managers experienced in BLU cost structures, this interactive cost model enables users to simulate LED and CCFL Backlight Unit costs using multiple scenarios at once.
- Pre-loaded with DisplaySearch forecasts for major component, materials and labor costs
- Adjust the preloaded parameters to match your business for any size panel from 10.1” to 65”. Change parameters easily to see the impact of different materials and optical film costs including the resulting profit scenarios.
- Negotiate the best long-range pricing with cost forecasts through 2013.
- Save thousands of hours creating BLU cost scenarios and researching future BLU costs.
- Understand how the individual components and the backlight unit will contribute to the total panel cost in the near future.
