PRICING PRODUCTS
Price - the amount of money charged for a product or service, or the sum of the values that consumers exchange for the benefits of having or using the product or service.
Factors to consider when setting prices 1. Internal factors a. marketing objectives( survival, current profit maximization, market share leadership, product quality leadership)
b. Marketing mix strategy c. Target costing - pricing that starts with an ideal selling price, then targets costs that will ensure that the price is met.
Types of costs fixed costs- do not vary with production or sales level variable costs- vary directly with the level of production total costs-sum of the fixed and variable costs.
Experience curve or learning curve - the drop in the average per unit production cost that comes with accumulated production experience.

General Pricing Approaches
I. Cost-Based Pricing 1. Cost-plus pricing - adding a standard markup to the cost of the product
2. Break-even pricing(target profit pricing) - setting price to bvreakeven on the costs of making and marketing a product; or setting price to make a target profit breakeven volume = fixed cost/(price-variable cost per unit)
II. Value-Based pricing - setting price based on buyers’ perceptions of value rather than on the seller’s cost. Value pricing - offering just the right combination of quality and good service at a fair price
III. Competition-Based Pricing - setting prices based on the prices that competition chage for similar products.
