The Daily Roll Board Members

Dear Board Members,

We already know that our products are known in the market for their quality and softness. We are always thinking of our customers first; therefore we never stop improving our lines to better serve them. Also, we are selling our products at an affordable price, $5.50 for a twelve pack.

To make our toilet paper, we use the best materials found in the marketplace. Our toilet paper is usually made from new or "virgin" paper, with a combination of softwood and hardwood trees. Trees like the Southern pines and Douglas firs possess long fibers that wrap around one another which give paper strength. Hardwood trees like gum, maple and oak have shorter fibers that make a softer paper. Our toilet tissues are generally a combination of nearly 60% hardwood and 40% softwood.

Recently, the cost of these materials has increased by 1/ 2 of its original price. Last year, we spent approximately $387,500.03 per month in raw material. With these recent increases our monthly expenses will be higher by $193,750.015 per month. Unfortunately, to balance our accounts we must increase the price of our twelve pack packages from $5.50 to $6.15.

Sincerely,

Aquileidy Perez
