In general business, price analysis is the process of evaluating a proposed price independent of cost and profit. [1] [2] Price analysis began in 1939 when economist Andrew Court decided to analyze prices to better understand the environmental factors that influence this practice. [3]
An easier way to solve this problem in a two-output context is the Ramsey condition. According to Ramsey, in order to minimize deadweight losses, one must increase prices to rigid and elastic demands/supplies in the same proportion, in relation to the prices that would be charged at the first-best solution (price equal to marginal cost).
In behavioral economics, willingness to pay (WTP) is the maximum price at or below which a consumer will definitely buy one unit of a product. [1] This corresponds to the standard economic view of a consumer reservation price. Some researchers, however, conceptualize WTP as a range.
Early proposals of monetary systems targeting the price level or the inflation rate, rather than the exchange rate, followed the general crisis of the gold standard after World War I. Irving Fisher proposed a "compensated dollar" system in which the gold content in paper money would vary with the price of goods in terms of gold, so that the price level in terms of paper money would stay fixed.
A feasibility study is an assessment of the practicality of a project or system.

The anti-competitive agreement by producers to fix prices above the market price transfers some of the consumer surplus to those producers and also results in a deadweight loss. International price fixing by private entities can be prosecuted under the antitrust laws of many countries.
