A

Cost-based approach: profit assumed as long as markup figure is sufficient and meets sale expectations. Perversely leads to over pricing when demand is low, and underpricing when demand is high.
Competitive-based approach: Competing products used as a benchmark. Assumes there are no desperate competitors (but there always are!) Simple model.
