Discussion and Responses

This week's discussion focuses on Chapter 11:  Pricing Strategy.  Following your review of the material from the chapter reading, prepare to take a stand on the following issue:  Is the Right Price a Fair Price?

Prices are often set to satisfy demand or to reflect the premium that consumers are willing to pay for a product or service. Some critics shudder, however, at the thought of $2 bottles of water, $150 running shoes, and $500 concert tickets.                   

In your post, use the material from the chapter readings and academic sources to support your position:  Prices should reflect the value that consumers are willing to pay versus prices should primarily just reflect the cost involved in making a product or service

This posting should be completed by Friday at 11:00 p.m.  By Saturday at 11:00 p.m., return to the forum and respond to two classmates - one who supports your position and one who disagrees.
