Setting sales volume targets can be important due to high amount of fixed costs a business can build up. Eg BMW - Increase number of BMW 3 series sold in Chinda from 250,000 to 400,000 over next 12 months. High fixed costs of operating spread across greater number of units of output - reducing fixed costs per unit. Lower unit costs - wider profit margins, which will give MBW opp to increase research + development budgets.
Sales value - Nike. No1 supplier of football boots + kit (objective). At time (1996), Nike minor player in this area, Adidas no1. In 1996, Nike generated sales of $40m from football. 2014, $2,000m. Outsold Adidas in German homeland
