The last alternative for estimating fixed expenses brings the total to $4,064,000.00, which will generate a small Net Profit of $1,085,320.00. Although expanding Strike Roach Ender to 19 cities can be profitable, the potential losses Zoecon could take from an effective advertising and promotion strategy for this venture far exceed the potential rewards. The $4,064,000.00 would not be sufficient enough advertising to gain a significant market share in all 19 cities over a substantial amount of time. The general “rule of thumb” approach is more accurately what would be spent for the new Strike Roach Ender product, in which case a major loss would be taken, making this venture not financially feasible.

Given a minor role of Phillips' testimony and the limited impact that Phelps statement had on the jury's assessment of Phillips credibility, Maddox could not demonstrate that so the evidence probably would have resulted in an acquittal. Also, the evidence was immaterial under United States V.Blasco; the defendant filed a joint motion to suppress all physical evidence gathered by the officers and any statements made by the defendant. The magistrate found that the defendant did not have to raise a fourth amendment challenge and its suppression did not violate his (Maddox’s) due process right. For ongoing reasons, the district court's dismissal of Maddox's habeas petition was affirmed.
A major disadvantage of this strategy is that by not obtaining personal information about their customers they are forfeiting their ability to send coupons and ad information about special discounts that may be of interest to their existing customers that could potentially encourage them to purchase items.
