While setting the price of a product, managers must consider all of the following: A) cost of the whole marketing mix B) buying capacity of the customers C) profit it should bring the company D) transportation cost E) personnel cost to the company

Explanation:

Key factors in calculating the sale price can be:

Costs are a major factor in determining the selling price and a way of forming a price that is primarily related to costs called “ground” because it represents the minimum at which the price can be set. It includes cost plus other costs with no projected or minimal profit;Demand/buying capacity as a key factor in price calculation is tied to a method called the "ceiling" because capacity exceeds the price limit that customers are willing to accept to get a product or service.Competition as a pricing factor refers to alternatives that customers can choose from, and competition allows them to do so;

Cost-based pricing has its sub-methods such is Cost plus method

The basic principle is to add a rate of profit to the sum of direct and indirect costs. This way price consider a profit to it should bring to company.

Direct costs include material and labor costs, and indirect or general costs comprise a portion of fixed indirect costs such as depreciation, administration costs, sales costs and other general costs.

Formula: price = Direct costs + Indirect costs + Rate of profit

cognitive overload: having a lot on your mind impairs decision-making and tends to result in the simplest, but not necessarily best, option being selected.

empathy gaps: overlooking how you might feel in a different situation can result in unnecessary purchases, such as overbuying when shopping for food on an empty stomach.

optimism and overconfidence: wearing rose-tinted glasses and having unrealistic expectations about the future can affect money management and leave you unprepared for a change in circumstance.

instant gratification: seeking instant gratification drives impulsive spending and can undermine long-term planning and savings.

harmful habits: automatic or mindless behaviour can amplify a poor financial decision as it becomes a recurring event.

social norms: we are heavily influenced by the actions of others; while this can be in certain circumstances, it also contributes to the pressure to keep up with the joneses through conspicuous consumption.
