Rate of Return Pricing

What is Rate of Return Pricing

The rate of return pricing, also known as target-return pricing, is a way by which a company will determine the price of its product by taking into consideration the returns that they would want to receive on that product. The idea of rate return pricing is quite comparable to that of return on investment; but, in this scenario, the corporation has the ability to manipulate its prices in order to accomplish the objective that it has set for itself. With the exception of situations in which an investor asks a particular rate of return on their investment, this strategy is utilized most frequently by businesses that either own a substantial amount of capital or hold a monopoly on the market. There is a possibility that rate of return pricing is an ineffective market strategy in a competitive market because it places an emphasis on the end profit margins and does not take into account the dynamics of supply and demand. It is possible that if a rival is able to establish a lower price, it would diminish demand for the product, which will lead to sales that are lower than what was anticipated and will prevent the company from reaching the required profit margin.
