At the price of P14 per unit, the profits are maximized at P375, compared to the other
price levels which yields lower profits. Unit cost is computed in column six in order to
illustrate as volume goes up.
Market share maximization is achieved by the price that obtains the highest volume of
sales possible without sacrificing too much profitability.in the same table, this market
share-maximizing price is P 10, with a volume of 100 units.
At this low price, profits are still realized. Perhaps a bigger volume can be
obtained at the lower price of P8 per unit. At this price level, a possible
demand for 110 units would produce revenues of P880 and total costs of
P850, yielding a miniscule profit of only P30. at this point, going for
market share might be sacrificing profits too much.
