How can I improve the profit ratio of my company?

Reducing costs is more important than raising profits. Would that bonus amount be too high? We need to go through the plan if you are going to invest.

Reducing costs is more important than raising profits. Would that bonus amount be    high? We need to go through the plan if you are going to invest.

1. (too high) implies that we are making a comparison to another amount mentioned before, but there is no other amount mentioned before, so (high) on its own is the way to say this.
That makes sense. It is our 15th anniversary and I plan to give 15,000 yen to each employee as bonus. Is that okay?

where is this from, Sir? May I ask if you are blind? I appreciate that if you could compensate this bonus from your pocket.

1. (Where) is starting a new sentence, so a capital letter is used.
2. (it) and not (that) as there is no relative clause here, there is a conditional clause with (if), but (it) is used to refer to the situation the person appreciates.
Oh, I see. We are paying it from our retained profits from last year. Will that still suffice to motivate the staff without impacting our profit ratio?

First, consider whether the cost is appropriate. Is there a problem with the balance of labor costs? By the way, your face resembles a character that appears on Sesame Street. Are you a shill for Sesame Street?

1. This question is correct and can be used, or you can simplify the sentence and ask (Are the labor costs a problem?) or (Is there a problem with the labor costs) without using (the balance of) to generalize the question on labor costs.
I got it. Oh, really? That surprised me. Do I really look like a cartoon character? Can you tell me who that is?

I heard there is a spy in our company whose nose resembles a Cookie Monster. I need to call the police right now.

1. (right now) an be used, or you can say (right away) to mean immediately as well. We more commonly say (right away) to mean that we don't delay.
