List factors that affect a product's price
Perfect competition:Many buyers and many sellers all dealing in an identical product. Neither producer nor user has any market power and both must accept the prevailing market price.
Monopoly:One seller who dominates many buyers. The monopolists can use his market power to set a profit-maximizing price.
Monopolistic competition:A large number of suppliers offer similar, but not identical products. The similarities ensure elastic demand whereas the slight differences give some monopolistic power to the supplier.
Common in restaurant, cereal, clothing, books, music, movies, & shoes industries
![Page 15: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Monopolistic Competition
Basically brand loyalty is what differentiates & keeps the business going.
Example would be shaving kits. There are a lot of shaving manufacturers on market that offer
similar products. Many people only buy Gillette Fusion Power
Gillette’s High Level of Brand Loyalty gives it more “power” in the market
Companies have the freedom to create a product to compete against Gillette but they have to build brand loyalty in order to
stay in business.
![Page 16: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
List factors that affect a product's price.
Oligopoly Monopolies “little brother”
Industries with only 2-3 businesses. Boeing & Airbuss are two main airline manufactures. Each have 50% of market.
Not a monopoly because there is some competition that prevents one company from doing whatever it wants.
Each firm has the ability to influence market prices
Not good for consumers because prices are high & competition low.
Cost to produceCompanies need to make a profit so the cost to product an item is a key factor in affecting price
![Page 17: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Describe how pricing affects product decisions.
Pricing affects whether customers will be a product and how much customers will buy
Decisions on whether to expand a product line or close it
are related to what price can be charged.
![Page 18: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Explain how pricing affects place (distribution) decisions. Shipping products long distances can significantly increase the price of an item
◦If a company has to fly a product to consumer it will cost more◦Why do you think products in Hawaii are more expensive?
Describe how pricing affects promotion decisions. When setting prices and promotion plans and company must consider:–Is the company trying to break into an existing market?–Is it trying to expand into new markets?–What is the competition doing?–Type of Medium you choose (Radio v. Print) & Length of promotion

Price Fixing Two Examples:
General Electric & Westinghouse got caught price fixing in the 1950’s. The Tennessee Valley Authority was going over records and noticed bids submitted by 47 companies were almost always identical. Heads of companies would get together at restaurants and pick out a winning bid & losing bids.
British Airways & Virgin AtlanticIn 2004, the airline entered into secret talks with its rival Virgin Atlantic to simultaneously bump up their fuel surcharges, a practice that continued into 2006. Over the course of the collusion, fuel surcharges rose from an average of five pounds a ticket to over 60 pounds a fare.
![Page 24: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Predatory Pricing Wal-Mart has been sued numerous times over this issue. Lawsuits from government officials in Wisconsin & Germany have sued Wal-Mart over their selling prices.
Example:
Wal-Mart sells butter, milk, laundry detergent & other staple goods below cost to force other businesses out of business. After other companies go out of businesses; Wal-Mart raises prices to recoup losses.

Deceptive Pricing
![Page 27: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Dumping For example:
Suppose there are two companies selling identical products;
company Y is a domestic firm and company X is a foreign firm.
Company X wants to drive company Y out of the market,
so it prices its product far below the cost of producing it.
Company Y must compete by lowering its prices,
which eventually causes the company to lose money and exit the market.

Price Discrimination Price Discrimination occurs when a firm charges different prices to similar customers in similar situations
Example:◦ Adult Movie price is
higher than kids◦ In-state college tuition
is less than out-of-state college tuition
![Page 30: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Describe laws affecting pricing.
American consumers have the right to expect the benefits of free and open competition — the best goods and services at the lowest prices.
Public and private organizations often rely on a competitive bidding process to achieve that end.
The competitive process only works, however, when competitors set prices honestly and independently.
When competitors collude, prices are inflated and the customer is cheated.
Price fixing, bid rigging, and other forms of collusion are illegal and are subject to criminal prosecution by the Antitrust Division of the United States Department of Justice.
![Page 31: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Describe laws affecting pricing.
Explain positive effects of pricing laws.
•Customers know that they aren’t being taken advantage of
•Pricing is consistent
Discuss negative effects of pricing laws.
•Prices become less like to be modified (even down) because the law might see the change in a negative manner.
•Companies worry about sales & price promotions they offer because of how government perceives it
![Page 32: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Identify ethical considerations in setting prices.
Ethical considerations include the importance of accessibility to the company’s product(s).
Think about the price for medicine that is required to keep ill people alive (like insulin)
How much profit does the company need to stay in business to provide jobs for its employees?
![Page 33: PERFORMANCE INDICATOR 3.06 DEVELOP A FOUNDATIONAL KNOWLEDGE OF PRICING TO UNDERSTAND ITS ROLE IN MARKETING](https://reader031.vdocument.in/reader031/viewer/2022013004/5697bf771a28abf838c81365/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Explain ethical concerns associated with the use of complex prices that are confusing to consumers.
Ethically, making pricing so complex that customers don’t understand how it works means that the company might be taking financial advantage of customers.– This ultimately results in customers looking for different suppliers– Think about the complexity of taking an airline flight vs. renting a car
Explain how pricing tactics can relate to social responsibility.
Since products often help improve the standard of living for the customers, pricing has a direct effect on society.
Pricing should consider both the welfare of society & the supplier.

Identify ways that the use of technology impacts the pricing function and explain specific applications of technology in pricing.•Technology allows data to be easily collected, collated and analyzed. This means that pricing decisions can be effectively reviewed with solid information.
•Pricing can also be inputted into the computer cash register system reducing the number of input pricing errors at the cash register.
Describe benefits of automating the pricing process.
•Instead of having to price every item in the store, one person can easily change prices with a change in the programming and signs that inform the customer of the price.

Discuss risks associated with automating the pricing process.
Errors in the programming might be hard to catch, especially if the price is off by only a few cents or dollars (depending on the overall price of the item).
Cashiers don’t have to learn the prices and therefore can’t check that they are charging the correct prices on the register.
Item Pricing Laws (8 States have such laws) Michigan has enacted over price law; where you get back the overcharged amount plus 10x the difference ($1.00 - $5.00)
If charged $1.25 for $1.00 item they have to give you $.25 + 10*.25.
Refund = $2.75

Explain how automating pricing facilitates targeted pricing.
•Targeted pricing allows a company to charge different prices to new customers it is trying to entice than to established customers who need no other incentive to by the company’s brand.
•Automated pricing allows the programmer to set the qualifications and then the system awards the targeted price when the conditions have been met.
