Purpose This paper aims to first investigate how unit pricing affects consumers’ grocery purchase decisions and perceptions of the shopping task’s information load. The second goal is to test how time pressure enhances the behavioural and perceptual effects of displaying unit prices.

In Study 1, participants indicated their choices and perceptions in an inter-brand shopping scenario where prepackaged products have conflicting positions on retail price and unit price.

Based on the empirical evidence, the study plans to draw the spatial price map of India with different colours denoting states and districts with varying level of spatial prices.

Abstract:
Supermarkets often list sale prices in terms of how many items for how much. For example, recently I saw that Snickers bars were advertised at 8 bars for $3 and cans of SpaghettiOs were selling at 4 for $5. Are those good prices? How much is it if I buy only one bar or can? The price of one bar or one can is called the unit price. One way to think about unit price in the setting of these sale prices is to think about fraction-to-percent equivalents.

In this paper we assess the current relevance of different sources of international competitiveness.

Abstract:
The effects of the U.S. dollar exchange rate versus the Mexican peso are evaluated for four traded nonfarm-produced inputs (fertilizer, chemicals, farm machinery, and feed) in the U.S. Unit root tests suggest that the exchange rate and the four input price ratios support the presence of unit roots with a trend model but the presence unit roots can be rejected in the first difference model. This result is consistent with a fixed price/flex price conceptual framework, with industrial prices more likely to be unresponsive to the exchange rate than farm commodity prices.

Abstract:
Discriminatory pricing policies, even if at first glance can be perceived as unfair, are widespread. In fact, pricing differences for the same item among different national markets are common, or forms of discrimination based on the time of purchase, like in tickets' sales. In this work we propose a framework for capturing the setting of ``fair'' discriminatory pricing and study its application to multi-unit markets, in which many copies of the same item are on sale. Our model is able to incorporate the fundamental discrimination settings proposed in the literature, by expressing individual bu

Abstract:
Beef prices in Turkey is increased for long time. That outcome is caused to find out the reasons which are variables related to beef prices. The target of this study is to clarify relationship of beef price and its independent variables with a regression model. Data analyzed with SPSS 23.0. Based on the model’s equation, the independent variables which are average world beef unit price (USD), per capita beef consumption in Turkey (kg), government livestock incentives (TRY), consumer price index on beef (%), exchange rate (USD/TRY), real effective exchange rate (%) and gross domestic national p

Abstract:
Abstract One of the major challenges of the oil industry is the volatility of oil prices. To mitigate the impact of the oil price uncertainty, there are several techniques for monitoring the efficiency and profitability of an oil and gas asset, one of them being the Unit Operating Cost (UOC) analysis. The UOC is mathematically expressed as the ratio of total OPEX to the volume of hydrocarbon produced. This ratio is also the same for assets where both oil and gas are commercialised but would require a measure of equivalence of the various hydrocarbon types for the computation of the composite h

Abstract:
The main objectives of this study are to investigate the trends in primary pavement materials’ unit price over time and to develop statistical models and guidelines for using predictive unit prices of pavement materials instead of uniform unit prices in life cycle cost analysis (LCCA) for future maintenance and rehabilitation (M&R) projects. Various socio-economic data were collected for the past 20 years (1997–2018) in California, including oil price, population, government expenditure in transportation, vehicle registration, and other key variables, in order to identify factors affecting

Abstract:
The Food-at-Home Monthly Area Prices (F-MAP) data product provides detailed food price data to support a broad range of food economics research, supplementing existing public food price data. The data product contains monthly mean unit values and 6 price index measures for 90 food-at-home categories across 10 major metropolitan areas and 4 census regions. This report introduces the USDA, Economic Research Service (ERS) Food Purchase Groups (EFPGs) food classification system and describes the methods used to construct the F-MAP data product using weighted retail scanner data from 2016 to 2018.

Abstract:
The paper examines the impact of providing market-based reference prices on public procurement efficiency in Brazil. Specifically, the study focuses on the State Secretariat of Health (SES) in Rio Grande do Sul and the algorithm developed by the local tax administration to calculate representative reference prices for pharmaceutical products. Unlike previous studies, reference prices are calculated based on the universe of local business-to-business transactions. The study finds that SES procurement officers access to this information caused a significant reduction in purchase unit prices, par

Abstract:
This paper exploits unique features of a recently introduced tariff schedule for natural gas in Buenos Aires to estimate the short-run impact of price shocks on residential energy utilization. The schedule induces a non-linear and non-monotonic relationship between households' accumulated consumption and unit prices, thus generating an exogenous source of variation in perceived prices, which is exploited in a regression-discontinuity design. The estimates reveal that a price increase in the utility bill received by consumers causes a substantial and prompt decline in gas consumption. Hence the

Abstract:
The use of reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) has economic and environmental impacts. This report investigates the prospective use of RAP in preservation treatments (mainly chip sealing and microsurfacing) in Illinois. A review of the current state of knowledge and practice was conducted. The economic and logistic feasibility of using RAP in preservation treatments in Illinois were investigated. Data were collected on RAP availability in the state followed by a survey distributed to district engineers and highway construction contractors. The survey asked about the availability of RAP, its viabi

Abstract:
There is substantial evidence worldwide on tobacco taxation and its effectiveness as a tool to control tobacco use. However, a crucial aspect of the market for cigarettes in many low- and middle-income countries has been ignored – the prevalence for selling loose (single) cigarettes, rather than packs of cigarettes. This Research in Brief explores this mostly informal market for loose cigarettes, its dynamics, and unintended policy effects.

This study estimates that, in 2020, about half of all infant formula in the United States was consumed by WIC infants. Federal law requires that WIC State agencies use a cost containment system to reduce infant formula costs. Most State agencies use a single supplier, competitively bid rebate program. The State agency awards a contract to the infant formula manufacturer offering the lowest net wholesale price per unit of infant formula, defined
