Retail Price

The price for which your inventory will be listed on the lot.

 

Internet Price

The internet price is often a calculated amount that totals the internet price plus your default document prep fees (Dealer Service Fee). Some states require by law that this price be shown in online advertising. The system option for inclusion of the document prep fee is located in Miscellaneous - System Options, Sales Options 1.

 

Wholesale Price

The price you would wholesale a vehicle for. (Some dealers will use this field for "Trade Value.")

 

"Other" Price / Cost

You can enter a third suggested price in this field, or perhaps use it to enter a "code" for the cost of the vehicle.  This information can print on the Price List without a heading.  An example code might be entering 37, if your cost is $3,700.  When you see the 37 on the price list, you will know that the cost is actually $3,700.

 

Down Payment

For buy-here pay-here deals you may use this field for minimum down payment requirements.

 

Weekly / Monthly Payment and "Payment Details"

For buy-here pay-here deals you may use these fields weekly and monthly payment estimates. This information can be printed on a vehicle's window sticker. Additionally the "payment details" button is in use for putting down the stipulations regarding these figures' calculations.
