{"product_id":"pricing-for-profitability-isbn-9780471415350","title":"Pricing for Profitability","description":"Three things can happen when establishing a product price. A price set too high is a lost sale that could have been profitable at a lower price. A price set too low is rewarded with unprofitable work. Only when a price is set appropriately does a company make both a sale and a profit. Just as activity-based costing and activity-based management revolutionized the cost accounting world, activity-based pricing will bring a disciplined approach to developing pricing. Activity-based pricing examines the relationships between price, cost and sales volume and how this relationship effects profitability. Pricing for Profitability joins the disciplines of marketing, economics, business strategy, engineering and cost accounting to achieve maximum profitability.Bei der Festlegung eines Produktpreises gibt es drei Möglichkeiten. Wird der Preis zu hoch angesetzt, verkauft sich das Produkt schlecht; wird er zu niedrig angesetzt, wird die Arbeit unrentabel. Nur dann, wenn der Preis produktangemessen ist, schlägt sich dies in guten Absatzzahlen und entsprechendem Gewinn für das Unternehmen nieder. Ebenso wie Activity-Based Costing (ABC - auslastungsorientierte Kostenrechnung) und Activity-Based Management (ABM - Prozesskostenmanagement) die Kostenrechnung revolutioniert haben, liefert die Methode des Activity-Based Pricing (kostenorientierte Preisgestaltung) einen disziplinierten Ansatz für die Preisbestimmung. Activity-Based Pricing berücksichtigt die tatsächlichen Produktions- und Servicekosten, die mit Hilfe des Activity-Based Costing exakt ermittelt werden können. Auf diese Weise kann man den Preis für das jeweilige Produkt genau festlegen. \"Pricing for Profitability\" erläutert ausführlich, wie ABC- und ABM-Verfahren angewendet werden müssen, um eine Preisgestaltung mit maximaler Gewinnaussicht zu erreichen. Darüber hinaus werden auch Preisstrategien für absatzstarke\/absatzschwache Produkte sowie für komplexe und einfache Produkte diskutiert, die sich vom \"Durchschnitt\" abheben. \"Pricing for Profitability\" - Ein nützlicher Leitfaden für alle wettbewerbs- und gewinnorientierten Finanzleiter und Controller.

Accurate pricing for improved profit\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e When pricing a product, you have to get it right. Overpricing will lead to lost sales that would have been profitable at a lower price, while underpricing leads to sales that bring revenue without profit. Activity-based pricing is a new paradigm for improving profitability by reducing the occurrence of pricing mistakes and placing less emphasis on increasing revenue and more on improving profits.
