Seems to be confusion in this arena so:
ADM - additional dealer markup. Placed over the MSRP to inflate profits and egos.
MSRP - manufacturers suggested retail price... retail or Window Sticker. Would sell them all day for this profit structure.
Invoice - below window sticker...is not true cost if car ... this is what floorplan and banks use as cost.
Cost - 2-3% behind invoice (holdback) that dealers use to defray he cost of floor planned (sitting in stock) inventory.
Options - on the vehicle that are configurable at order time will have an MSRP, invoice and cost
Accessories - added on after the vehicle us built. AKA dealer installed accessories.
BUILD & PRICE - online tool used by consumers to "make" their vehicle and change at a whim
Configurator - Dealer tool used to order the vehicle
X plan - is a partner pricing structure that is .4% below invoice.
A, D, and Z plans - If you work for Ford, a dealership employee or a retiree from Ford these plans will be available to you and you know the rules already.
Reservation system - this process is something new to Ford. Came out for the MachE, then to Bronco Sport now Bronco.
Allocation - is based on prior sales and dealerships were rewarded with extra vehicles because of being a volume store.
Reservations will eventually lead to allocations but after all reservations have been filled.
Please feel free to pm or add to thread and I will bring up here as necessary.

Have an MSRP and cost no invoice and price structure is determined by the application. (Some items have more profit structured than others)
