BASE-POINT PRICING

base-point pricing. 1. A pricing method that adds the price at the factory to the freight charges,

which are calculated as the cost of shipping from a set location to the buyer’s location. • The chosen shipping base point may be the same for all customers, or it may be a specific, established location, such as a manufacturing plant nearest to the buyer. 2. A uniform pricing policy in which the cost of transportation to all locations is presumed to be the same.[Blacks Law 8th]
