Expert Solution & Answer
To determine
Product price: The price at which the product is sold is referred to as product price.

- The product price is set by the company under the following situations:
- When the product is specially designed for the customer
- When the product can be manufactured by only some companies, ruling out the competition
- When the product is distinct from others
