Willingness to pay

 
Wikipedia: Willingness to pay

In economics, the willingness to pay (WTP) is the maximum amount a person would be willing to pay, sacrifice or exchange for a good.

Several methods have been developed to measure consumer willingness to pay. These methods can be differentiated whether they measure consumer hypothetical or actual willingness to pay and whether they measure consumer willingness to pay directly or indirectly.

Choice modelling techniques may be used to estimate the value of the WTP through a choice experiment.
