La LPC [Loi sur la protection du consommateur], à son origine, a fait beaucoup pour faire reculer les prêts usuriers.

Le prix d’acceptabilité est obtenu en interrogeant un échantillon de clients potentiels de manière à situer leurs seuils de prix. Basé sur une optique consommateur, le prix d’acceptabilité n’ est pas forcément celui qui maximise le chiffre d’affaires ou les bénéfices, il peut également se situer sous le coût de revient. La méthode est en fait peu utilisée car elle comporte de nombreuses limites. 2, record 2, French, - prix%20psychologique
