So dealers who sell MTH products for full m.s r.p. will see a 2-1/2% increase in MTH items since MTH will be charging dealers 7-1/2% more?

Above statement probably true, but who buys at full msrp anymore?

"In short, it means our costs are rising by 10% and this cost has to be passed on to the retail distribution chain (our retailers and distributors) at a rate of 7.5% for the affected goods."

This pretty much indicates that the discounted prices will also rise unless the dealers decide to eat the 7.5% increase.
