Option Attach Rate at 22% target option attach rate: a worked example

This worked example runs the option attach rate numbers for a tougher week than the baseline: 22% target option attach rate instead of the typical 30%. Calculate how often a specific option, accessory, or package is selected on configured orders.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Configured orders that selected this option: 138 orders (held at the documented default)
  • Eligible configured orders in the period: 520 orders (held at the documented default)
  • Target option attach rate: 22 % (the input this scenario stresses; the baseline uses 30)

Working through the calculation

  • The calculation starts from the formula this tool documents: Option Attach Rate = configured orders with the option selected ÷ eligible configured orders × 100.
  • option attach rate works out to 26.54 % at these inputs, and this is the headline figure for the scenario.
  • option attach rate gap to target works out to -4.54 points at these inputs.
  • configured orders with the option selected works out to 138 count at these inputs.
  • eligible configured orders works out to 520 count at these inputs.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where target option attach rate sits at 30% and the headline result is 26.54 %, this scenario lands almost exactly on the baseline at 26.54 %.
  • Use it when reviewing option performance for a model line, a quarter, a region, or after a price or bundle change. A result at this level usually justifies acting on the stressed input before touching anything else, because every other figure in the table is downstream of it.

Results at a glance

  • option attach rate: 26.54 % (headline result)
  • option attach rate gap to target: -4.54 points
  • configured orders with the option selected: 138 count
  • eligible configured orders: 520 count
