[...] les effets marchands correspondent à des biens et services produits ou consommés par un groupe concerné et négociables sur un marché. Ils sont généralement monétarisés en leur affectant leur prix de marché. Toutefois, du fait de l'imperfection des marchés (existence de monopoles, intervention de l'État), le prix de marché peut être remplacé par un «prix fictif» qui traduit de façon plus adéquate la valeur sociale du bien (prix de revient du bien par exemple). 5, record 2, French, - prix%20fictif
