The difference between the Net Income under Absorption Costing and Variable Costing is due to Fixed Manufacturing Costs that are deferred in Inventory. This needs to be reconciled accordingly.

Differential pricing means different buyers pay different prices for the same quality and quantity of a product.
GaryK [48]

Differential pricing means charging different prices to different buyers for the same quality and quantity of product. For example, many movie theaters offer discounted tickets for seniors

<h3>What is pricing?</h3>

Pricing is the process by which a company determines the price at which it will sell its products and services, and it may be part of the company's marketing strategy.

Pricing criteria represent customer or deal characteristics. Price administrators define the pricing criteria that will be used to determine their company's pricing strategy. When you define the pricing segments and pricing strategies, you use the values for the pricing criteria.

It is possible to barter. Buyers must decide whether the utility gained from the exchange is worth the loss of purchasing power. In an open market economy, price represents the value of a good/service among potential purchasers and ensures competition among sellers.

The postal service of St. Vincent, an island in the West Indies, obtains a significant portion of its revenues from sales of spe
klemol [59]

Answer:

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

The souvenir sheets cost the postal service $1.15 each. St. Vincent has been selling these souvenir sheets for $10.00 each and ordinarily sells about 61,000 units. To test the market, the postal service recently priced a new souvenir sheet at $11.00 and sales dropped to 51,000 units.

We need to calculate the actual revenue and decide whether it is more convenient to increase the price or leave it as it is.

Actual revenue= 61,000 units* (10 - 1.15)= $539,850

New revenue= 51,000 units*(11 - 1.15)= $502,350

It is more profitable to maintain the price at $10
