How are prices set by business people?
• Costs provide a price floor.• See what substitute products are priced at• Can you offer something of additional value
that people will pay a price premium for?• Use this information and market responses to
set your prices.• Remember, price increases & decreases have
a direct impact on unit profits

Markup Pricing
• Markup - a dollar amount added to the cost of products to get a selling price (638)
• Many retailers apply a standard markup to everything they sell.
• However, with modern data information price setting is changing to more of a market response method for many firms.

Markup Formulas
• Markup On Selling Price = – (Selling Price - Cost) / Selling Price
• Markup on Cost =– (Selling Price - Cost)/ Cost

Markup Conversions
• Percent Markup On Selling Price =– (Percent Markup on Cost)– (100% + % Markup on Cost)
• Percent Markup on Cost =– (Percent Markup on Selling Price)– (100% - % Markup on Selling Price)

Markup Example 1
• Your cost is $20 each and your selling price is $25. What is your markup on selling price and your markup on cost?

Stockturns
• Stockturn rate (498)
• Stockturn rate = – (sales in units) / (avg. inventory in units)
• Faster stockturn rates lower inventory holding costs. What is a “high” or “low” stockturn rate depends on the industry.

Average Cost Pricing
• Average Cost Pricing (490)
• Problems:– does not consider cost changes at different
output levels.– Does not consider the impact price has on
quantity demanded

Break Even Analysis
• Break - even analysis (505)
• Break - even point (505)
• BEP (in units) =– (Total Fixed Cost) / (Fixed Cost Contribution
per Unit)

Break Even #1
• Your fixed costs are $100,000, your variable cost per unit = $15 and your unit price = $40. What is the break-even quantity?
• If you sell 3000 units, what is the profit?
• If you sell 6000 units, what is the profit?
![Page 21: Chapter 18 Price Setting in the Business World. How are prices set by business people? Costs provide a price floor. See what substitute products are priced.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56649e9e5503460f94ba0587/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Answer #1
• Break-even Quantity =– (100,000) / (40-15) = 4,000 units
• At 3000 units? – 3,000 ($40 - 15) - $100,000 = $25,000 loss
• At 6000 units?
• 6000 ( 40 - 15) - $100,000 = $50,000 profit

Break-even #2
• Your fixed costs are $25,000, your variable cost per unit = $5, and your unit price = $15. What is the break-even quantity?
• If you sell 1000 units what is the profit?
• If you sell 3000 units, what is the profit?
![Page 23: Chapter 18 Price Setting in the Business World. How are prices set by business people? Costs provide a price floor. See what substitute products are priced.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56649e9e5503460f94ba0587/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Answer #2
• Break-even– ($25,000) / ($15 - 5) = 2,500 units
• For 1000 units:– 1000 ($15 - 5) - $25,000 = -$15,000
• For 3000 units:– (3000 ($15 - 5) - $25,000 = $5,000

Break-Even #3
• Your fixed costs are $500,000, your variable cost per unit = $2.50, and your unit price is $10. What is the break-even quantity?
• If you sell 50,000 units what is the profit?
• If you sell 80,000 units, what is the profit?
![Page 25: Chapter 18 Price Setting in the Business World. How are prices set by business people? Costs provide a price floor. See what substitute products are priced.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56649e9e5503460f94ba0587/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Answer #3
• Break-Even– ($500,000) / ($10 - 2.5) = 66,667 units
• For 50,000 units– 50,000 ($10 - 2.5) - $500,000 = $125,000 loss
• For 80,000 units– 80,000 ($10 - 2.5) - $500,000 = $100,000

BE & ROI
• A target profit amount can be added to break even analysis to give the quantity needed to hit a certain profit goal. The target profit amount is added to the fixed costs in the equation.
![Page 27: Chapter 18 Price Setting in the Business World. How are prices set by business people? Costs provide a price floor. See what substitute products are priced.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56649e9e5503460f94ba0587/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
BE & ROI Problem
• Take the last example. Our goal is now a 10% ROI. What is the quantity needed to hit this ROI target?
![Page 28: Chapter 18 Price Setting in the Business World. How are prices set by business people? Costs provide a price floor. See what substitute products are priced.](https://reader037.fdocuments.net/reader037/viewer/2022110213/56649e9e5503460f94ba0587/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
BE ROI Answer
• Our new “fixed costs” are
• $500,000 & the profit goal.– $500,000 + (500,000 x 0.1) = $550,000
• Break even for this ROI level is
• $550,000 / ($10 - 2.50) = 73,334 units

Break Even
• Calculating BEP at several possible prices and forecasting the probable demand at those price points can be helpful.
• BE Analysis is also a good illustration of why managers constantly look for ways to cut costs. Cost cuts means you can achieve profitability at much lower sales levels.

Problems with BE Analysis
• Break-even analysis has two big assumptions
• 1] There is a horizontal demand curve
• 2] Cost curves do not change over the production horizon

Competitive Bidding
• Six steps a firm should use:• 1] Decide if the bid is worth the bid preparation
costs• 2] Calculate the direct & indirect costs of the
contract• 3] Estimate the probabilities of acceptance at each of
several bid levels• 4] Calculate the expected profits at each bid level• 5] Evaluate the process after submission
