What is the Invoice Price and its significance for auto dealerships?
The Invoice Price refers to the amount that a dealership pays to the manufacturer for a new vehicle, which typically is lower than the MSRP (Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price) or sticker price. This price is crucial for dealerships as it forms the basis for negotiating purchases with manufacturers and setting competitive sale prices for consumers.
