Which pricing method would be used for an item that has the same price no matter how much you weigh it?

• A. PLU-based pricing
• B. Fixed item pricing
• C. Dynamic pricing
• D. Promotional pricing

Answer: (B)

Pricing by weight means the total cost changes as the weight changes, using a price per unit of weight tied to a PLU code. An item that costs the same no matter how much you weigh it is charged a fixed price per item, not tied to weight. In this setup, the store assigns a single price for the item (per unit or per fixed quantity), so buying more or less weight doesn't alter the price. The other methods differ: PLU-based pricing varies with weight, dynamic pricing shifts with demand or time, and promotional pricing is a temporary discount. So this scenario describes fixed item pricing.
