Problems of Product-Line Pricing

How should a manufacturer determine the best pattern of prices for a group of related products, e.g., similar products that differ in size, quality, style, or features; or dissimilar products that are substitutes or complements? My analysis of this problem, which is confined to manufacturers who have enough pricing jurisdiction to have priceing problems, has two parts: (I) a brief exploration of a broad approach to the problem of product-line pricing; and (2) an examination of selected areas of application.
