Measurement of Incidents of Quantity Surcharge Among Selected Grocery Products

Abstract

It has been reported that the “large economy” size is not always really the best buy. Prices per unit in large size packages frequently are greater than those for smaller sized ones. These differences have been labeled quantity surcharges. The purpose of this research was to determine how frequently quantity surcharges exist in grocery stores. It was found that 33.8 percent of the brands examined were priced at a quantity surcharge.
