Overview:

In this study, we will apply our understanding of pricing strategies and their impact on consumer decisions in a field study of prices presented at a local retail store or an online store.

Background:

Assume you are part of a marketing consulting team, and your task is to assess competing firms’ pricing strategies to get a feel for market demand within the retail industry. Assume several retail stores that you frequent or several online/mobile retail sites/apps that you use represent the competitors you will be assessing. Review the stores/sites/apps to compare pricing of different products/services to find

different examples of most or all of the following pricing tactics:

• – quantity discounts
• – cumulative quantity discounts
• – seasonal discounts
• – rebates
• – zero percent financing
• – price-matching
• – price lining
• – charm pricing / psychological pricing (.99 pricing)
• – price bundling (product option pricing)
• – pay what you want pricing (price bidding)
• – payment method pricing (credit card / cash)
• – two-part pricing (product + professional service pricing)
• – freight absorption (delivery option) pricing
• – captive product pricing
• – loss-leader pricing

Assignment:

1. 1) Visit several retail stores, preferably stores that are not busy and display prices clearly. Alternatively, visit mobile shopping apps or online shopping sites. You can also look at a mix of physical retail stores and mobile/web shopping retailers. If possible, ask store managers if you can snap pics of some product displays for a Marketing class assignment (assure them you will not share the photos outside of your Marketing class and not include any customers in the photos).
2. 2) Observe prices of different products/services in the stores/apps/sites you visit, taking photos of prices that show the above listed pricing tactics. For mobile or online retailers, take screenshots of the prices you view.
3. 3) Find examples of at least 7 of the above pricing tactics, making sure you have a photo or screenshot of each CLEARLY showing the price(s).
   • ï‚· Cite all photos using proper APA in-text citation format for citing your own digital photography works.
   • ï‚· Cite screenshots as if they are your own photos (use the same format as citing your own photos).
   • ï‚· DO NOT JUST BORROW PHOTOS FROM ONLINE SOURCES – You must take your own photos or screenshots for this assignment, and the date of your photos/screenshots must be clearly presented in your in-text citations under each photo/screenshot so that your professor can verify if needed.

4) Compile your photos/screenshots into a paper in which you include with each photo/screenshot a short paragraph that

o describes the product/service the price showing in the photo/screenshot refers to in a few words

o re-states the listed price (and associated conditions if any) in a few words
o identifies the name of the retailer where the product/service is offered
o clearly names the pricing tactic
o briefly (one sentence) offers your opinion of whether or not this pricing tactic works

for this retailer and this product/service.

5) Add your name and title to the top of the first page, followed by a very short introduction sharing when and how you collected the photos/screenshots and information for this assignment, and include a references section at the end showing where you gathered information on the pricing tactics. Thus, you will format your paper as:

1. Introduction – the assignment’s purpose, where and how photos/screenshots and information were collected for the paper.
2. Photo/screenshot showing first pricing tactic example
3. Photo/screenshot showing second pricing tactic example
4. Photo/screenshot showing third pricing tactic example
5. Photo/screenshot showing fourth pricing tactic example
6. Photo/screenshot showing fifth pricing tactic example
7. Photo/screenshot showing sixth pricing tactic example
8. Photo/screenshot showing seventh pricing tactic example
9. References – full APA citations for sources on pricing tactics (probably including a citation for our course textbook

Cite your own photos , put your citation directly under each photo (not as a reference or footnote), and cite it like this: Figure 1. Skywalker, L. (2019, Dec. 3). Captive Product Pricing at Walmart in Eugene [Digital Photograph]. For this assignment, you can use the same format for screenshots, but list the format at the end as [Screenshot].

Consider catch shares and the negative aspects of this government intervention. add to your previous discussion of catch shares using what you have learned about how monopolists make pricing and output decisions and how and why market power is a problem. Include any other negative aspects of catch shares that you find through your own research.

Now put yourself in the role of a social advocate. Noting the problems you presented above, what solutions do you have to help protect society? Offer an alternative solution that addresses the issues you noted in part I and avoids the problems you noted in the first half of part II. Be creative, you are not limited to possible government interventions but should also consider potential interventions from other groups in society.

Note: This is the final part of the writing assignment. You must submit a completed paper with title page, introduction, body, conclusion, a graph, and bibliography page. The paper should breakdown the fishing market and problems within it, evaluate the current solution and it’s limitations, and propose an original contribution/potential solution.

(No changes need to be made to writing draft 2, just look at them to help you write this case study)

Please find the rubric for this assignment and part 2 paper attached.

The paper should be in chicago style.

A graph regarding the monopolist pricing and output decisions should be included and explained briefly, must be drawn not obtained from google.

• The authors call for “further research … to explore the issues faced by family members caring for a dying person at home and the impact this has on the home space.” In response to their call, what specific research question would you want to explore? Why?

Support for caregivers

The process of aging is difficult, especially once the transition of life approaches. Baby boomers are an example of a population that is often referred to when discussing aging and also being a caregiver. This age group typically has entered retirement age and is either still working or caring for an older parent, or both. The challenge for caregivers is taking care of themselves, older children, and their parents. The transition from life to death is emotionally and physically draining. A number of family carers felt the home space was changed as a result of being the setting for end-of-life care (Morris, et al., 2015). As the home environment seems like a comfortable transition space, how can the caregiver (carer) receive the emotional, physical, and social support necessary to remain helpful and healthy?
