Competition-Based Pricing
The price to charge for services can be determined by the amount of time it takes to complete the service. A service provider must decide whether there will be a separate charge for materials or whether the materials will be included.
Time-Based Pricing
used when a product is new and unique. A high price is charged to recover the costs involved in developing the product. Then as more competitors enter the market with similar products, the price is dropped.
