open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2018
According to standard economic wisdom, fixed costs should not matter for pricing decisions. However, outside economics, it is widely accepted that firms need to increase their prices after a fixed cost rise.

2002

These indicators were first analysed in Brouwer and Kleinknecht (1996). They noted that, during the observation year, many firms had no sales
