仕入先の値上げ通知への交渉
仕入先からの値上げ通知に対して、背景の確認・影響の試算・現行価格の据え置き/猶予・数量ディスカウント・契約延長・書面確約までを英語で合意する会話。TOEIC頻出の購買語彙（effective date, unit price, quote, purchase order, volume discount, validity, surcharge, written confirmation など）を扱う。
目的
- 値上げ理由（材料・輸送・人件費）と発効日を英語で確認できる
- 現行価格の適用範囲（既発注/猶予期間）やボリューム割引・固定価格の提案ができる
- 改定見積・有効期限・文面確約を依頼し、次のアクションを明確にできる
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Good morning. We received your notice of a price increase effective May 1. Could you clarify the drivers—materials, freight, or labor?
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示Good morning. The main drivers are steel and freight. Our costs have risen about 9% since January.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示How much is the increase in percentage terms, and which SKUs are affected?
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示An average of 7% on the A-series and 5% on the B-series. The surcharge on small lots will remain until July.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Understood. Can you honor the current unit price for POs issued before the effective date? We have several orders planned this week.
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示Yes, we can honor the current price for POs dated through April 30.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Thank you. Would a volume commitment—for example, 1,200 units per quarter—qualify us for a discount?
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示With that volume, we can offer a 2% discount and remove the small-lot surcharge.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Could we lock a fixed price for six months if we extend the contract through next March?
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示We can fix the price through October, with a review in November. Alternatively, we can phase in the increase over two months.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Let’s go with the fixed price through October and the 2% volume discount. Please send a revised quotation and specify the validity.
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示Will do. We’ll include the PO cutoff (April 30) and note that the surcharge is waived for your account.
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示Great. We need written confirmation of the agreed terms. Once received, we’ll place this week’s orders today.
A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示Understood. I’ll email the revised quotation and an addendum by 3 p.m. Anything else you’d like us to address?
B (Supplier Sales Rep)
日本語訳を表示A (Purchasing)
日本語訳を表示That covers everything. Thanks for working with us on this.
A (Purchasing)
