Myyntihintaan

Myyntihinta is the price at which a product or service is offered for sale to customers. The form myyntihintaan is the illative case used in Finnish to refer to something being added to, included in, or directed toward the sale price, for example lisätään myyntihintaan arvonlisävero or myyntihintaan sisältyy arvonlisävero.

In practice, the selling price typically includes the base price and any taxes or charges that are part of the final amount charged to the customer. Distinctions are common between the base price (without tax or fees), the price including value-added tax (VAT), and any discounts, promotions, or handling charges that apply. Retailers may display multiple prices, such as a regular price and a promotional myyntihinta, to communicate value or savings.

Pricing is influenced by factors such as cost structure, competition, demand, branding, and seasonality. Common strategies include cost-plus pricing, market-based pricing, and dynamic pricing. Promotions, bundles, and loyalty discounts can alter the effective myyntihinta shown to consumers.

Legal and consumer protection aspects in Finland require clear, accurate price information. When prices are displayed, they must reflect what the customer pays, and reductions or VAT treatment should be transparently communicated. The term myyntihinta is often contrasted with ostohinta (purchase price) and with terms like suositushinta (recommended price) or hinnasto (price list).
