Key to understanding The Toyota Production System:
Profit and Cost
Cost + Profit does not equal Price
Price - Cost = Profit
In order to increase profit do not raise the price - it is determined by the market.

Reduce Cost
Determined by production and supply chain management methods
Use internal know how and innovation to reduce cost and generate profit
Unless you reduce the cost, you cannot expect a profit!
