<p>An apparatus (200) and method are provided for an interface enabling a user to determine optimum prices of products for sale. The interface includes a scenario/results processor (233) that enables the user to prescribe an optimization scenario, and that presents the optimum prices to the user. The optimum prices are determined by execution of the optimization scenario, where the optimum prices are determined based upon estimated product demand and calculated activity based costs. The scenario/results processor (233) has an input/output processor (404) and a scenario controller (412). The input/output processor (404) acquires data corresponding to the optimization scenario from the user, and distributes optimization results to the user. The scenario controller (412) is coupled to the input/output processor (404). The scenario controller (412) controls acquisition of the data and the distribution of the optimization results in accordance with a price optimization procedure.</p> |
