Germany gas station pricing
Under the assumption that Q29 gas is worth 52 (Q+23), you can sell a full shelf in between 24 and 48 hours, as follows:
Price --------- Selling time --------- Profit per 1000m
68.65 ----------- 24 -------------------- 833k
79 -------------- 37.13 ----------------- 873k
85.83----------- 48 -------------------- 846k
Thus, you can manage your supply with great flexibility, without much effect on profitability.

Cost to construct 1k sqm gas station 17mil
Price --------- Selling time --------- Profit per 1000m--ROI
68.65 ----------- 24 -------------------- 833k----------4.90%
79 -------------- 37.13 ----------------- 873k---------5.13%
85.83----------- 48 -------------------- 846k----------4.98%
Time spent--------Gas station size considering it expands by factor of its ROI
1 month--------------4.2x---4.49x---4.30x
2 months-----------17.64x--20.12--18.47
1 year------38287163x--85159383x--50570526x
Of course this didnt take into account the expansion time but it should give you the basic idea about exponential growth and how seemingly small differences become huge differences over the time

There's nothing wrong with a small/medium sized player selling a full gas station in 24 hours provided they are selling at or above their optimum selling price and they don't have a problem with supply.Ronintje wrote:atanesa wrote:Yeah, why did its prices for gas drop so much?
Price will drop a lot more if more people start selling a full gas station in 24 hours.
Admittedly if they are selling below the average price then they will drive prices down, but how much ?
A thousand metre station will sell 50,000 units, Thats small change compared to the tens of millions of units that are sold daily.
When you have maxed stations or stations of a size that are difficult to fill because of lack of supply, then that's a different story.
Different strategies apply at different levels.
