What Is a Price?
Price is the amount of money charged for
   a product or service. It is the sum of all
   the values that consumers give up in
   order to gain the benefits of having or
   using a product or service.

Price is that which is given up in an
   exchange to acquire a product and
   service

Price is the only element in the marketing
   mix that produces revenue; all other
   elements represent costs
