is Much Cheaper in USA

One hot topic is: the products made in China, why the price is Cocktailjurken much cheaper in United States? Take my own experience for example, I bought a piece of Columbia brand coat in Boston downtown, which is labeled "Made in China", the total cost is $69, which equals to 470 Yuan. Also, take iPhone 3 for example. Recently, Apple 3G version tablet PC-- ipad, is about $67 dollars at Harvard University computer shops (including tax, about 4,500 Yuan), and this product in Chinese market reached 6000 Yuan. The most well known case should be the famous coach handbags. In America's suburbs brand store, a common Coach bag is about 100 dollars, but in China the price is 1,500 Yuan. S. are often half of that in China.

The huge price difference inevitably leads to a lot of arbitrage actions. In the United States outlet, Chinese purchase teams are always spectacular. The store sales persons are extremely very busy with serving those purchasers. Because Coach Bag sells very well in China, but the price is much more expensive. So they always carry a lot of bags then come out. At that time, I can't believe China is a developing country.

As we know, the product costs include production cost, transportation cost and cost of sales. According to the common sense, made-in-china products sold in China, its local transportation cost and the cost of sales is lower than that in United States, so the price in Lange Avondjurken China should be cheaper. But now, product price in China is incredibly higher than that in United States, this is a kind of adverse price difference. We have never heard of "Beijing roast duck" is much more expensive in Beijing than other places. This is indeed an intriguing topic.

In my opinion, there are 4 main reasons responsible for this phenomenon.

1. Brand Effect and Market Demands.

Under the total market competition, the price of the product is equal to the cost plus the industry average profit. Therefore, if the cost of commodity is the same and the price is different, that must be different market structure lead to different profit . In the market, if the product is oversupplied, the profit will be lower; if the demands are over the offer, the profit will increase. Coach handbag is a local brand in America and it is welcomed in China, a lot of Chinese people like it. So the market demand is higher than united sates.

2. Transaction Fee

New institutional economics considers the country system decides transaction costs. Therefore, the same products, even if the production cost is the same, different country system also have different transaction costs, thus different total cost is generated. Vintage Trouwjurk Assuming exactly the same brand, if the country transaction fee is higher, the price of the product will be higher too.

3. Intellectual properties

Brand products is much more expensive, because the quality is superior.

4. Consumption Culture.

Chinese people have an unwritten rule that courtesy demands reciprocity. So they always bought a lot of superfluities as gift for their supervisor or friends.
