Marketing research recognizes three distinct types of price endings: round (like $25.00), just-below (like $24.99), and precise (like $24.63). A number of studies have documented significant differences in how frequently these price endings appear in different countries’ marketplaces. Although these variations could be attributable to cultural factors, researchers have yet to thoroughly investigate that connection, and it remains unclear which cultural differences may be relevant or how they might interact with other socioeconomic conditions.
