Cost-plus pricing is a pricing strategy in which the selling price is determined by adding a specic dollar amount
markup to a products unit cost. Mark ups are when you
add a % to the cost to set the price. An alternative pricing
method is value-based pricing.[1]
Mechanics
MR = P + ((dP / dQ) * Q)
Q = quantity
Rationale
MC = P + ((dP / dQ) * Q)
Dividing by P and rearranging yields:
Economic theory
(P / MC) = (1 / (1 - (1/E)))
6
(P / MC) = markup on marginal costs
E = price elasticity of demand
