The document discusses various pricing strategies used in retail businesses. It describes manufacturer suggested retail pricing (MSRP) where manufacturers set standard prices across locations to account for costs and profit margins. Keystone pricing doubles manufacturing costs to set retail prices but this does not work for most items. Bundle pricing sells a group of products at a single price, leading to large volume purchases. Psychological pricing uses odd-ending prices like $0.99 to increase perceived value and impulse purchases. The document also analyzes volatility, uncertainty, complexity and ambiguity factors in retail pricing.

• It is core aspect of all the businesses that sell
products • Retail price is differentiated from manufacturer price and distributor price, which are prices set from one seller to another through the supply chain • But final aim is to keep making profit Manufacturer suggested retail pricing (MSRP)
• To standardize the prices of products sold across
locations (Generally used for mass produced items) • It takes into account the cost of manufacturing the product, a profit margin for both the manufacturer and the retailer, as well as the prices of similar products • This approach takes the guesswork out of price- setting for retailers, saving them time and energy. Keystone Pricing
• Doubling of the manufacturing cost to set a retail
price • It works for few items and does not work for most of items • Generally, this pricing affects the profitability of products Bundle Pricing
• It’s when retailers sell a group of products for a
single price • It is preferred as this pricing streamlines retailer's marketing campaigns and satisfies customers too • Leads to large volume purchases of certain products • Disadvantage in form of cognitive dissonance of buyers Psychological Pricing
• It is based on a theory that customers have trust
in prices ending with odd numbers like 5,7 or 9 • Instead of buying item for Rs.1000, customer prefers price at Rs.999 and will perceive it to be better deal based on number alone • Useful for brands that want to increase their overall sales volume by making impulse purchases by customers VUCA Analysis
VOLATILITY UNCERTAINTY
• Changing customer preferences • Shift in consumer trend(from
• Changing consumer purchasing offline to online) power • Continuous fluctuations in discounts on ecommerce
