Abstract

This thesis examines the proposition that price is an indicator of quality for certain competitive brands of product ingredients used by the baking industry. An analysis of the study strongly indicates that baking industry buyers judge quality by price under the conditions of (1) imperfect product knowledge and (2) perception of the product brands being different. When a manufacturer markets a product it is in his best interests to consider the phenomenon of judging quality by price.
