Price Cutting Cure. , ~ClCCC~ " How can price cutting be stopped? . -. Only by casting out the craze for volume at any cost and the fear of not getting the volume. This means- . a-the scientific quoting of prices based on actual cost plus reasonable profit. b-sticking to quotations. c-going after only a reasonable propor­ tion of the total business. d-sticking as much as . possible to your own economic territory. e-getting business by sane and ethical methods and making sure of a legiti­ mate profit on it.
