documents: #Person1#: Is there any way you can cut us a better deal on your wholesale price for this order?
  #Person2#: We did the best that we could to give you a low price. Did you get our recent estimate?
  #Person1#: Based on the estimate you gave us, by the time we figure in transportation and other expenses, our profit is short. With the offer you've given me, we're making next to nothing. Can't you do any better?
  #Person2#: I've already given you a discount of 20 % off of our normally charge. If I go any lower, we'll have loss on this project. I really want to work with you on this. But we've already gone as low as we can go.
  #Person1#: I'll be honest with you, our budgeted cost can't exceed more than $ 150 per unit. That is our bottom line. If you can meet that price, you've got the deal. Otherwise. . .
  #Person2#: I'll tell you what, I'll go over the number again with our financial team and see what I can do. I can't give you any guarantees. But we can try.
