Threshold effects in consumer response to price promotions are usually explained as insensitivity to small differences between an observed price and an internal reference price. In this research, we develop an alternative mechanism whereby the threshold effect arises from consumer uncertainty of the normal reference price, rather than from insensitivity to small gains and losses. We compare two variations of this mechanism with the usual insensitivity-based promotion threshold mechanism. We find that a risk-hurdle mechanism has the best empirical support, as well as desirable theoretical characteristics. Such a mechanism implies that (a) promotion strategies that assume insensitivity to small changes may be problematic; (b) tactics that influence consumer uncertainty can affect brand ...

The one per cent reduction in the GST has made an impact in some smaller markets, but not much in big centres where affordability is compromised because the selling price is so high already," says [Dave Benbow]. "The federal government made a commitment to adjust the thresholds at least every two years to ensure that they continue to reflect changes in housing prices, thus protecting housing affordability," says a report by the CHBA on the issue. "Housing affordability has been eroded due to the lack of indexation of thresholds. If the threshold for housing prices had also increased by that amount, the GST rebate would extend to homes priced from $475,000 to $610,000. If the issue is not addressed, "how are the young ever going to be able to get into home ownership?" says Benbow.
Owner's volume history: The JOC contractor will review the owner's projected volume during the term of the contract as well as the owner's history for similar work. Even though there is typically only a small guarantee of work ($50,000 - $75,000), the JOC contractor would like a long-term relationship and continued delivery order opportunities. Additionally, depending on the owner's location, the JOC contractor could experience 6-12 months of negative cash flow while establishing a job site, and needs to feel comfortable that as they perform, they will continue to be issued delivery orders. Type of work: The JOC contractor will evaluate the type and size of projects the owner plans to place through the contract. JOC projects typically range from $50,000- $1,000,000. The contractor will ...
