any company have its way in pricing , some companies have an estimated sales price , or very competitors with a same sales price, in that case  the cost of the product should be less than sales revenue with a profit margin without it affect on quality and in this case they should use the kiezen method in cost reduction .

Ex: company A produce a product that is being sold in  10 $ and the profit margin is30% so the cost should be less than7 $ .

also other companies use the method of adding the profit margin over the total cost  if they have something as an open market .

Ex : Company B produce a product that costs10 $ for each unit , they have a profit margin40 % so the price will be14$
