Marketing Mix: Price
MoFP for
TKW’s
Pricing decisions need to balance a business’s need to make a profit,
with the market’s value perception (i.e. what the market is prepared to
pay).
If the price is too high, customers won’t buy the products; if the price
is too low, there is a risk that the business will not be able to generate
enough profit to breakeven.
"Price is what you pay. Value is what you get." - Warren Buffett

Pricing of Insurance products
The formulation of pricing strategies
becomes significant with the viewpoint of
influencing the target market or prospects. To
be more specific in the Indian context where
the disposable income in the hands of
prospects is found low due to inflation, it is
pertinent that the insurance organizations
adopt such a strategy for pricing that makes it
a motivational tool & paves the ways for
increasing the insurance business. Of course,
a motivational pricing strategy is required to
be given due weightage.

Price is very important part of Marketing Mix as it affects…
…whether people can afford the product and how quickly sales will
grow
…how competitively it is priced compared to rival products
…the product’s image – high price can mean high quality
Price = Cost + Perceived Value
In addition to price of financial services consumers might also be
motivated by other factors such as security, piece of mind, prestige and
wealth.

insurance cover to investors at no
extra cost.
In the unfortunate event of the
demise of an investor during the
tenure of the SIP, the insurance cover
will take care of the unpaid
installments

Pricing will depend on type of market i.e.
if the market is exclusive or advanced , the consumers may expect
high prices
Price Skimming is common
if it is mass market where similar products are sold to large number
of customers then a low or Penetration Pricing might be used

If the market is very competitive and business is to grow by increasing
sales, prices may have to be reduced

products
This is called Competitive Pricing

unit cost plus a percentage mark up

Break-even Analysis
Break-even Volume = Fixed cost/(Price – Variable cost)
Break-even chart for determining Target Return Price and Break-even volume
Price per unit = Rs 100 AVC = Rs 60 Fixed cost = Rs 120000
BEP(in units) = 120000/(100 – 60) = 3000 units
Breakeven analysis is an aid in making pricing decisions.
