QUESTION 5

List and discuss the factors affecting pricing.

ANSWER

1. Competition:

While fixing the price of the product, the firm needs to study the degree of
competition in the market. If there is high competition, the prices may be kept
low to effectively face the competition, and if competition is low, the prices
may be kept high.

2. Consumers:

The marketer should consider various consumer factors while fixing the
prices. The consumer factors that must be considered includes the price
sensitivity of the buyer, purchasing power, and so on.

3. Government control:

Government rules and regulation must be considered while fixing the prices.
In certain products, government may announce administered prices, and
therefore the marketer has to consider such regulation while fixing the prices.

4. Economic conditions:

The marketer may also have to consider the economic condition prevailing in
the market while fixing the prices. At the time of recession, the consumer may
have less money to spend, so the marketer may reduce the prices in order to
influence the buying decision of the consumers.

5. Channel intermediaries:

The marketer must consider a number of channel intermediaries and their


expectations. The longer the chain of intermediaries, the higher would be the
prices of the goods.
