Record 2 2002-03-01

English

Subject field(s)
  • Pricing Theory
OBS

There is no exact equivalent for the French term. Therefore, an expression such as "market pricing system", "market pricing" etc. would likely be used in English, depending on the context. (Source: Mr. D. Miller, Economic Council of Canada).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Théorie des prix
CONT

Le "vrai prix" est un prix assurant l'équilibre de l'offre et de la demande sans recours à l'artifice ou à la contrainte. Certains services publics étant vendus à des tarifs trop peu élevés par rapport à leur prix de revient, le retour à la vérité des prix implique la hausse de ces tarifs.

OBS

Le concept de "vérité" a ici un sens bien particulier : la "vérité" est ce que donne le marché.
