Skimming Price Strategy is appropriate when ..................... .

  • A.Product is differentiated and competition is normal
  • B.Customers are sensitive to price
  • C.Customers are price insensitive to a given value and they wish to buy
  • D.Product is new and innovative

Answer: D

Skimming pricing is appropriate when the Product is new and innovative.

Price skimming means launching at a high price to 'skim the cream' from buyers who value the novelty most, and then lowering the price step by step to reach more price-sensitive segments. It works when the product is new and distinctive, so that there is no close substitute and early adopters will pay a premium, as with new technology products.

When customers are sensitive to price, or competition is normal, the right strategy is penetration pricing. Option C points the same way as skimming, but the key takes the classic condition for skimming, a new and innovative product, as the answer.
