  11. Get a Deeper Understanding of Your Business • Forecast future performance based on pricing plans:Understand how rates impact future performance and identify where to make changes in order to achieve plan. • Stress test the forecast with macroeconomic changes:Be proactive by testing how a change in vehicle sales, the unemployment rate, or auction values impact the forecast and develop a pricing plan to respond to these new in-market conditions. • Understand the impact of subvention and promotions:Avoid cannibalizing products by understanding the impact of subvention, promotions, or lease rates on the portfolio before implementing prices.
