Construction business is still considered as a prominent business in the entire cities in Indonesia, including Yogyakarta. Contractors compete to get project either by tender or direct order. Both methods will certainly affect the price offered by the contractors. The research aims to understand how big the price gap between tender method and direct order for architectural works along with the work quality and the owner’s satisfaction. Furthermore, several buildings in Yogyakarta become the sample of this research. The research data were collected using questionnaire, direct assessment, as well as direct interview with the contractors. The data obtained were analysed descriptively and statistically using SPSS software. The price gap between tender and direct order is 0,42% more expensive tender. On the tender method, the unit price increases followed by the increase in quality and user satisfaction. On direct order work, the price increase is followed by the increase in quality but decreased satisfaction.

Abstract Four studies, across a range of domains, find a dragging-down effect in which consumers purchase fewer units of a product when a discount applies to more units. For example, consumers buy fewer peaches when each customer can buy up to three peaches at a discount than when each customer can buy only one peach at a discount or when there is no discount at all. In contrast to basic economic principles, this dragging-down effect implies that consumers purchase less (more) when the per-unit price is lower (higher). We propose and our results support an acceptability account: consumers will adopt the price-increase point (i.e., maximum discounted quantity) as their purchase quantity if that point falls within an acceptable range, and will ignore that point and purchase their initially preferred quantity instead if the price-increase point falls below the acceptable range. The current work enriches existing research on anchoring and pricing and carries implications for consumers, marketers, and policy-makers.

How does? Market power effect the consumer purchase attention and buying behavior? To answer our research question in hypothetically and significant important perspective of price increase, we illustrate that (i) when the price increase is due to cost of goods sold consumer price fairness observation will decay with market power (ii) this fairness issue increase due to greater awareness of controllability of the firms with high market power (iii) when the price increase is not in the control of firms (and in this way saw as similarly reasonable for firms. with high and low market power). In our research above, predictions are empirically supported through quantitative studies of the survey. To address the research problem, we collect the data through convenience sampling from the consumers of Retail outlets. Our findings highlight how firm market power and pricing strategies influence the consumer awareness of price unfairness and the firm’s competition in the retail marketplace.

Abstract Sumaila, U. R., Teh, L., Watson, R., Tyedmers, P., and Pauly, D. 2008. Fuel price increase, subsidies, overcapacity, and resource sustainability. – ICES Journal of Marine Science, 65: 832–840. Global fisheries are currently overcapitalized, resulting in overfishing in many of the world’s fisheries. Given that fuel constitutes a significant component of fishing costs, we expect recent increases in fuel prices to reduce overcapacity and overfishing. However, government fuel subsidies to the fishing sector reduce, if not completely negate, this positive aspect of increasing fuel costs. Here, we explore the theoretical basis for the expectation that the increasing fuel prices faced by fishing enterprises will reduce fishing pressure. Next, we estimate the amount of fuel subsidies to the fishing sector by governments globally to be in the range of US$4.2–8.5 billion per year. Hence, depending on how much of this subsidy existed before the recent fuel price increases, fishing enterprises, as a group, can absorb as much as this amount of increase in their fuel budget before any conservation benefits occur as a result of fuel price increases.

This paper presents an analysis on price elasticity of demand for water as a consequence of price increases. The objective of this research study is to estimate the residential price elasticities of demand for water for different regions, which may have different income levels. The general conclusion is that price elasticity for residential water use is inelastic (i.e. a given percentage of price increase results in a proportionally smaller decrease in quantity demanded) and it varies by consumer class and type of water use. The elasticity is not significantly affected by demographic and other factors.
