Correct Answer
A. The generation of total revenueExplanation
Price is a key element in the market mix because it directly impacts the generation of total revenue. The price of a product or service determines the amount of money a company earns from selling it. Setting the right price is crucial for maximizing revenue and profitability. A higher price may result in higher revenue per unit sold, but it could also lead to lower sales volume. On the other hand, a lower price may attract more customers and increase sales but could reduce revenue per unit. Therefore, pricing decisions play a significant role in determining the overall revenue generated by a business.Rate this question:
