Almost all the firms have more than one product in their line of production. Even the most specialized firms produce a
commodity
in multiple models, styles and size, each so much differentiated from the other that each model or size of the product may be considered a different products e.g.
the various models of television, refrigerators etc produced by the same company may be treated as different product for at least
pricing
purpose. The various models are so differentiated that consumers view them as different products. Hence each model or product has different average revenue (AR) and
Marginal
Revenue curves and that one product of the firm concepts against the other product. The
pricing
under this condition is known as multi-product
pricing
or product line
pricing
. In multi-product
pricing
, each product has a separate
demand curve
. But, since all of them are produced under one organization by interchangeable production facilities, they have only one inseparable
marginal cost
curve. That is, while revenue curves, AR and MR, are separate for each product, cost curves AC and MC are inseparable.
Single product pricing refers to a single purchase, such as one bottle of Pepsi. Multiple product pricing refers to purchasing more than one product at a time, such as a pallet of Pepsi.
Cost plus pricing is based on full product cost plus desired profit margin to arrive at the product price, while marginal cost plus pricing makes use of the product's total variable cost plus desired profit margin to arrive at the product's price. Marginal cost plus pricing (or "mark-up pricing) is based on demand, and completely ignores fixed costs in arriving at the product's price.
Pricing methods are a way to determine how a product will be priced. It basically is a planning process.

Pioneer pricing is setting an initial price for a new product. This is quite essential as it will be the basis of judging how the product does in the market.
a pricing method used in situations where a saleable by-product results in the manufacturing process. If the by-product has little value, and is costly to dispose of, it will probably not affect the pricing of the main product; if, on the other hand, the by-product has significant value, the manufacturer may derive a competitive advantage by charging a lower price for its main product.
Product bundle pricing is sellers combine several products at the same price. E.g software, books, CDs.
Optional-product pricing is when after the initial pricing of a product is offered additional accessories are offered for that product at a price. This is a pricing option that has gained popularity over the years. Many companies offer a savings on bundled accessories with the purchase of product. Some companies may include cable companies, car companies, cell phone companies, banks, etc.
