The ERC announced that the price of super
petrol will decrease by Sh0.11 a litre across
the country for the next month, while diesel
will be Sh1.28 higher. Kerosene will increase
by Sh1.46 per litre.
There are only two emotions in the stock market, fear and hope. The problem is, you hope when you should fear and fear when you should hope

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

@Maichblack I understand your vile it can be frustrating. But let me shed some light atleast with figures and not stories.
Using an example of Super petrol for the month of march.
Note that I have excluded any decimals
FOB= USD592/Mt
Premium/freight/insurance=USD26/MT
Port charges/KMA/Shipping/Inspection(SGS)=USD18/MT
Total landed cost(Mombasa)=USD636/MT
Usd rate Ksh92.5
Approx Landed Cost=Ksh43 per liter
Taxes = Ksh31 (+/-0.5)
Tax paid cost= Ksh74 per liter
Kenya Pipeline=Ksh3.7 per liter
Transport to station( Truck)= Ksh0.7 per liter
Station cost= Ksh78 per liter

Note:
1. OMC (eg Total/Vivo) has not paid salaries,office rent, depot fees, finance costs and other admin costs.
2. Station operator(mostly franchised) needs to also pay its bills, maintenance etc.

Lets assume the admin costs for the station and OMC is Ksh3 per liter each.
Station cost= Ksh78 per liter
Admin Cost= Ksh6 per liter
Total cost at station= Ksh84 per liter

Well ideally that should be the price at the station??? Fortunately this are not Non profit orgs.

ERC price for Nairobi is Ksh89.35
Profit= 89.35-84
= Ksh5.35
Now that has to be shared between the OMC and the station operator.
And of course GOK at the end of the year.

Hope this helps.

I am only have a few KK stocks.
