pricing
Transitive Verb[C/U] Both
pl: pricingspast: pricedpp: priceding: pricingcomp: nullsup: null
This term carries a strategic, corporate weight. It does not merely refer to the price tag itself, but to the calculated logic and psychology used to arrive at that number. It suggests a deliberate business decision involving market research, competitor analysis, and profit margins. In a professional setting, it often implies a system or a tiered structure rather than a single fixed cost. When a business discusses its pricing, it is talking about its economic positioning and how it intends to capture value from its customers.
Uncountable when referring to the general business practice of setting costs. Countable when referring to specific cost structures or models used by different vendors.
