Zone pricing
Article Abstract:
Zone pricing is a spatial price policy that monitors the designated prices in corresponding zones. A derived model is able to identify the market sectors, prices, and tariff-zones that give the most profit with the implementation of zone pricing. Zone pricing provides a good maximum estimate of the spatial price discrimination. Moreover, the net profit of the firm accelerates with the number of covered zones as a result of an increase in supplied markets.

Facility location under zone pricing
Article Abstract:
Zone pricing is one of several price policies firms may adopt to have a slice of the profit it earns even with fewer zones. The system provides discriminate pricing with no direct effect on the cost of the company's structure. Firms can move freely into geographic production and distribution schemes without being prevented to change its demand pattern. Accounting costs are substantially reduced due to the model's simplicity.
