    C. Profit Pricing
    D. Sales Pricing
    Explanation
    Profit Pricing and Sales Pricing are not pricing strategies because they are not commonly recognized or used as specific pricing strategies in business. Profit Pricing refers to the general practice of setting prices in order to maximize profits, which is a fundamental goal of any pricing strategy. Sales Pricing, on the other hand, is a vague term that could refer to any type of pricing strategy aimed at increasing sales, such as discount pricing or promotional pricing. However, it is not a specific pricing strategy with well-defined characteristics or principles.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    When a product costs £2 for the business to get, does a 25% mark-up equal a 20% profit margin?

    • A. 

      True

    • B. 

      False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    A 25% mark-up means that the product is being sold for 25% more than the cost price, which would be £2 + 25% of £2 = £2 + £0.50 = £2.50. The profit margin is calculated as the profit divided by the selling price, so in this case, the profit margin would be (£2.50 - £2) / £2.50 = £0.50 / £2.50 = 20%. Therefore, a 25% mark-up does equal a 20% profit margin.
