This activity is important because the final price serves many functions for the firm. The final price must be high enough to cover the firm's costs and achieve the firm's objectives, but also low enough to be attractive to consumers. To set the final price, marketing managers begin with the list (quoted) price and then make price adjustments. Marketing managers use both discounts and allowances, which are reductions from the list price given, as a reward for performing an activity to arrive at the final price. The four most common types of discounts are (1) quantity, (2) seasonal, (3) trade (functional), and (4) cash. The goal of this activity is to demonstrate your understanding of the four types of discounts used by sellers.

1. Chiquita encourages Smoothie King to pay its bills for bananas quickly by offering a 3% discount on bills that are paid within 7 days.

3. Radio Flyer tries to get toy stores to order snow sleds and saucers in May by temporarily lowering the retailer's cost for its outdoor snow toy line.
