Hi Aloha1,..Re:.if one makes x number of boxes and can sell all of them @ 1500 Re:. Skeeter's comment - in order to sell all the boxes they make, they LOWER prices. I think the flaw in the argument is that Dell only MAKES what they have orders for in house, (and payment too <g>) to deliver. So in Dell's case we're not talking about inventory overhang. The Market generally determines pricing points IMHO. <g> Cheers, Lee

>>However, if they want to sell X + y number of boxes, a smart company will reduce their price to the price that allows them to maximize their reach into the set of y.<< al, that is EXACTLY MY POINT. why does one have to lower the price? TO STIMULATE DEMAND. iow, CREATE DEMAND. the inverse of this is that INCREASING PRICES REDUCES DEMAND (from x+y back to x). that is my point, the one that edamo says is silly. i'm glad we agree. you are not part of the remedial econ class. others are. ;-)
