A few years ago I was maintaining the website for a major brand whose products you probably use. To my horror the website did not support Firefox. I gave them a very minimal estimate on what it would cost to support Firefox along with the estimated percentage of Firefox users in their target market. They were not interested.

Best to avoid talking percentages, talk the specific cost to fix the bugs vs the specific amount of lost profit.
