Beneficios y gastos de un CD

Sacado de Sound on Sound:

Retail Price £12.99

VAT paid to government by shop £1.93 (£12.99/1.175 = £11.06)
Net to shop: £11.06
Shop marks up 50 percent of
Official Published Price to Dealer (PPD) £11.06/1.50 = £7.37
PPD £7.37
Shop gets eight percent discount £7.37/1.08 = £6.78
Net to distributor £6.78
Distributor takes 25 percent £6.78 x 0.75 = £5.09
Net to label £5.09
(Label pays 17.5 percent VAT to government if it is VAT registered)
8.5 percent of £7.37 PPD to MCPS £7.37 x 0.085 = £0.63
(20 to 30 percent of £0.63 taken by publisher) £5.09 - £0.63 = £4.46
Manufacturing cost of £0.60 £4.46 - £0.60 = £3.86
Promotion cost of £1.00 £3.86 - £1 = £2.86


So the label gets £2.86, less any artist's royalty at 14 percent of PPD (£7.37x0.14 = £1.03), and less mastering, artwork, and wages for freelancers.

Hola PArece soprendente, pero la venta de CD es negocio para las compañias discograficas. Los artistas sacan un porcentaje ridículo. Los Cd son formas de promocionar galas y conciertos, que son las que realmente dan dinero.... siempre que no te pise la escena algun espectaculo de OT....

Un saludo
