Talk:Fixed price

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Are you kidding me? Is it just a phrase used in Indian English? How about a type of contract (as opposed to a Time and Materials contract) that is used all over the world? This is a couple of references [1], [2]. Solarapex 04:10, 1 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Unit Pricing

[edit]

I would like to see a section here (or separate article) on unit pricing, which to me is an alternative to fixed pricing. Unit pricing is cafeteria-style, in which the two parties agree on services or materials being provided at a fixed price per unit (per quantity or unit of time) up to a maximum contract value. An example might be rental of construction equipment, where the per unit price is fixed at $X/backhoe and the customer can rent 1, 2 or 3 at the same unit cost up to the limit of the contract (NTE, not-to-exceed) value.

I'll bookmark this and write something myself if I don't see anything (or find an entry elsewhere) after a while.--CheMechanical (talk) 23:37, 1 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've added a 'See also' link to the exiting article on unit price. 70.247.162.84 (talk) 07:54, 2 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Prix fixe means "fixed price" and is the common English term for a fixed price menu

[edit]

Hence the need for disambiguation. Cheers, 159.235.96.154 (talk) 03:38, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am the IP above. A user asked about the definition of "Prix fixe" in an edit summary, merriam webster defines it as: [1] a complete meal offered at a fixed price. [2] also: the price charged. Etymology: French, fixed price. Sifaka talk 05:37, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
