| | Pricing Cost Based |
| | cost plus a constant margin), the most effective profit-maximizers set prices "to the market", with cost (plus minimum profit) merely serving as a minimum pricing threshold. | | | If competitors hold their product prices - either because they do not face the same product cost increases or because they are willing to accept lower profitability levels - then the firm must either absorb the cost increase (and lower profits), or give up some sales at increased price levels. | | | If market-based prices are below the price floor, a firm may price at the floor (and suffer the sales volume consequences) or may abandon the market (since the product loses money at the market price). |

| | Variable costs can be one-time costs (such as customer set-up costs) or reoccurring costs (such as customer service costs, costs of failures due to high utilization, and penalties due to infringement of Service Level Agreements). | | | Therefore, the cost structure is tied to the revenue. | | | Within the cost structure of utility-computing service offerings, sunk costs are much larger than the variable costs. |

| | Cost-Plus Pricing |
| | Government pricing and government contracts, including the payment of subsidies of any kind, always are on a "cost-plus" basis because in those cases the efficient market method of pricing has been prohibited. | | | Cost, of course, influences the supply side of the market and thus the price; but costs incurred do not determine price. | | | And this determination of prices in the open competitive market affords the current running record of costs and returns that a businessman needs in order to calculate profit or loss and judge whether or not to continue a particular business activity. |

| | If you choose to price your products using the cost-plus method or any other method that disregards the customer in the pricing process, you are voluntarily disregarding the most crucial piece of the puzzle, and such oversights rarely have good results. | | | Cost-plus pricing may also be appropriate in cases where large numbers of individual product prices need to be constantly updated (for example, in a supermarket). | | | This method of pricing is customer-centric, i.e., the price is based on the value generated for the customer rather than on the costs incurred by the supplier |

| | Performance-based pricing is a customer-focused alternative to cost-plus models, where price is based on the cost of development and manufacturing plus desired profit. | | | While cost-plus pricing is easy to calculate and administer, it tends to ignore the roles of consumers and competitors. | | | Unlike cost-plus pricing models, PLP’s approach bases the value of each printer interface on printer performance, with the addition of a depreciation schedule for legacy devices. |

| | Cost-Plus Pricing Fails Suppliers and Their Customers |
| | Even without that particular flaw, for cost-plus pricing to work for the customer, it requires either a) unlimited trust in the honesty of the supplier (the SEC may be able to suggest where not to sign on to that one), or b) comprehensive audit processes. | | | In many ways, cost-plus pricing should be the last thing a customer wants if he or she would like their supplier to help them control costs. | | | It could be argued that under some computerized pricing systems, the benefits of one-number-default pricing outweigh the costs of having to uniquely price every item while trying to strike the necessary balance between being a) competitive and b) not too generous. |

| | While cost-plus pricing may not be a good concept, it admittedly may serve as the best framework for pricing given the limitations of available, accurate information. | | | Let's look at market-based pricing, a notion that presumes that a company must be competitive and that its costs, operations and standards must reflect the demands of the marketplace. | | | This is especially true regarding companies for which an estimator calculates both estimated costs and price. |
