In addition, unfocussed content that was formely in the tactics section has been moved to new headings including 'methods of setting prices' and 'theoretical considerations' of pricing. I have also included lots of images - all sourced from wikicommons and added wikilinks throughout the article in relevant places. Some copy editing has been done, but more is required to get this up to a reasonable standard. I have addressed the issue of 74: 53: 179: 158: 377: 352: 284: 263: 189: 84: 22: 444:
can be a good thing because it serves as a counter-balance to Marketing's desire to "make the sale" (which can translate to pressure to lower the price) and Accounting's desire to "control cost and increase margins" (which can translate to pressure to increase the price). Pricing professionals can use a variety of methods to analyze the market and arrive at

I agree that the headings "Methods of setting prices" and "Theoretical considerations in pricing" should be moved. I would prefer that they appear earlier in the article, preferably before the section on developing strategies and tactics. For the time being, however, I left these two sub-headings

Knowledge has such a proliferation of articles on pricing (See the See Also section in the article for an idea), it is difficult to know what to do next without duplicating content that has already been canvassed elsewhere. Suggestions would be most welcome.

It would be nice to have some general coverage of pay-as-you-go vs. all-you-can-eat pricing. I've read that consumers often prefer the latter, even if they would save money by using the former instead. --
