    Hello sir! These statements are from Kaplan example these are FALSE statement they have not given explanation ..
    can you please explain me
    1) cost-plus pricing is a strategically focused approach as it account for external factor
    2) cost -plus pricing requires that a profit markup applied by an organisation is fixed .

    And also this one statement was true

    Full cost plus pricing requires the budgeted level of output to be determined at outset …. is this because of the absorption costing???

    1 is false because it dos not account for any external factors (it does not take account of competitors or of the affect of the selling price on the level of demand).

    2 is false because it is up to the company to decide what mark-up they want to apply to each of their products.

    3 is true because for full cost pricing we need to absorb the fixed overheads which needs knowing the budgeted production.

    I do suggest that you watch my free lectures on pricing. The lectures are a complete free course for Paper PM and cover everything needed to be able to pass the exam well.
