Answer:
There are many different price adjustment strategies which can be implemented in the current market.
Explanation:
Psychological pricing:
Psychological pricing is a strategy in which the price of a product is displayed with mostly one cent difference so the whole number shown is less by $1 and this difference can get higher if the price of the product is more.
Example 1: The price for a toy in a toy shop is $4.99, if rounded this will be $5 but the whole number visible is $4.
Example 2: The price of a laptop is $193, this again is nearly $200 but the price is reduced by $7 in order to influence their customers into buying the product.
Example 3: The price of a car is $35,995, this again is about $36,000 but the buyer may be influenced by this technique and result in purchasing the product with such price.
Geographical Pricing:
Geographical pricing is a strategy where different prices are charged in different outlets, this strategy is made keeping in mind the purchasing power of the locality, if the local people can pay higher price for a product then the price is high there but same product may have a lower price in an area where people can not pay high price.
Example 1: Price of a T-shirt is $15 in a posh area while the price of the same T-shirt is $5 in an area with poor locality.
Example 2: Price of a hair brush is $10 in a poor area while the same brush is available in a posh area at a rate of $35.
Example 3: Price for a food item is $6 in a restaurant in posh area while the same burger is available for $3 in a restaurant in a poor area.

A profit center, on the other hand, directly contributes to the University's profitability by generating revenue through its activities. Please, note that the dividing line is thin. The determinant factor depends on the choices and efforts made by an organization's management to commercialize some of its internal services.
Answer:
d. substitution bias.
Explanation:
Price changes from year to year are not proportional, and consumers respond to these changes by altering their spending patterns. The problem this creates for inflation calculations is called substitution bias.
A problem with the Consumer Price Index (CPI) arises from the singular fact that, when the price level of a product becomes relatively less expensive or lower, consumers tend to buy more quantity of the product and consequently, a lesser quantity of goods that are relatively more expensive.
Hence, their spending pattern changes with respect to the prices but it's not completely adjusted with the Consumer Price Index (CPI), thus, making the inflation rate to differ because of the problem of substitution bias.
Answer:
not good and inappropriate for this type of client.
Explanation:
AAA-rated municipal bonds generally yield very low interest rates and if this client is very young (only 25 years old), doesn't have a lot of money, and has an aggressive growth objective, he/she should invest in more riskier securities that can possibly yield higher returns, e.g. stock market. This client needs higher returns, and investing in low risk and low return securities will not be suitable for him/her. This type of investment is best for retired people that actually have accumulated a large capital.
