You're giving the impression that finished costs are going up 25% because of a potential increase in ONE on the materials used that could have an increase.

Stopped reading right there.

You have no frickking clue what I have written. I never said this. Read what I have written and learn the difference between material costs, gross margin, revenue, etc.

I said that is the impression you're giving.

Whether you realize it or not, it is.

Since I have gone places and done things I'm quite familiar with how much something costs and not only how you get there but leave still wearing your shirt.

Makes sense. I believe that once a business knows they will get hit with price increase in future, they immediately jack price up. In this case, it shows people believe Trump will follow through. Good negotiating position.
Couple of questions.
1. Had you known it was a possibility would you have added cost to quote.
2. Will you add it in future? Therefore this is a one time hit which hopefully you make up with increased sales because more stuff is being done in US.

Hopefully the weldment issue gets figured out.
