THere is a retail price for a product. On the wholesale side of things there is a set price also. However, when you start talking large bulk volume is there an equation for coming up with the tiered pricing schedule? Does someone know this magical formula?

For example (these numbers are made up)

retail 1 unit = $18

wholesale 1unit = $9
25 units = $8.90/ea
100 units = $8.80/ea
1,000 units = $8.70/ea
5,000 units = $8.50/ea
​

How do i know the margin between the $9 high and the $8.50 is to big or two small?

Right now it seems to me it just depends on how many you want to sell. Therefore, incentivise larger purchases by giving a better priceperunit to the buyer.

On a side note: I am aware that there are different pricing strategies i.e. breaking into the market, competing on price, predatory pricing, skimming, ect. I have read up on these, but my question is in regards to the tiered pricing for wholesale buyers; am I nieve and these are all highly interrelated?

Hopefully someone has some good insights on this.

Thanks,
Rob
