Explain product line pricing. Provide an example

What will be an ideal response?

In product line pricing, management must decide on the price steps to set between the various products in a line. The price steps should take into account cost differences between products in a line. More important, they should account for differences in customer perceptions of the value of different features.

For example, at a Mr. Clean car wash, you can choose from any of six wash packages, ranging from a basic exterior-clean-only "Bronze" wash for $5; to an exterior clean, shine, and protect "Gold" package for $12; to an interior-exterior "Signature Shine" package for $27 that includes the works, from a thorough cleaning inside and out to a tire shine, underbody rust inhibitor, surface protectant, and even air freshener. The car wash's task is to establish perceived value differences that support the price differences.
