E.g. – The customer is willing to purchase a cloth
worth of 100.00 (The Value – willingness of the
customer to pay). And the price of the cloth is
70.00, the difference between the VALUE and
PRICE is called CONSUMER SURPLUS. For the
MANAGER/OWNER side, the actual cost of the
cloth is 50.00, the difference between the COST
and the PRICE is called FIRM’S PROFIT (The
income that the firms receive after selling the
product) or VALUE CAPTURED. The COST up to the
VALUE (expectation of the customers in price) is
called VALUE CREATED.
DIFFERENTIATION VALUE COMES IN TWO FORMS:
MONETARY AND PSYCHOLOGICAL, both of which may be
instrumental in shaping a customer's choice but require
very different approaches to estimate them.

Economic Value Analysis
Step 1: Identify Reference Value
• Reference value is calculated as the price of the best perceived alternative, not necessarily
the next best competitive alternative, with regard to form, function, effectiveness,
and/or efficacy.
