guapka [62]

When firms compete by offering unique product features rather than competing on price, <u>non-price competition</u> occurs; it is when businesses employ tactics to boost sales and market shares without lowering prices.

What is non-price competition?

Because it exists between two or more producers who sell goods and services at the same prices but seek to expand their respective market shares by non-price factors like marketing strategies and higher quality, it frequently happens in imperfectly competitive markets.

Types of Non-Price Competition:

Marketing involves a range of approaches (based round the 4Ps), including product differentiation, advertising, promotion and distribution

barxatty [35]

Answer:

a. There are two separate performance obligations in the contract. Gym membership is one performance obligation and the providing 25% discount on yoga classes is another performance obligation.

b. The standalone selling price of annual membership is $720. Therefore, F&S will allocate $28*((700*(30/720+30))$ of 700 contract price to the discount voucher on yoga course and the remaining $672 will be allocated to membership.

C. solution is in the image attached.

Explanation:

b. F&S offers a 10% discount on yoga classes to all customers as part of promotional strategy. Therefore a 25% discount voucher provides a customer with an incremental value of 15% (25%-10%). Thus, the estimated stand alone selling price of the discount voucher provided by F&S is $30 ($500 * 15% incremental discount * 40% likelihood of the vouchers being redeemed).
