Explanation

Cost-plus pricing is a pricing strategy in which the selling price is determined by adding a specific amount markup to a product's unit cost. Cost plus pricing involves adding a markup to the cost of goods and services to arrive at a selling price. Under this approach, you add together the direct material cost, direct labor cost, and overhead costs for a product, and add to it a mark-up percentage in order to derive the price of the product.
