Pricing of printing in the market economy environment 【 Buke printing factory】

From 1996 to the present stage, printing prices are mainly regulated by the publishing and printing market. At this stage, although its ideal state is free competition, after the initial practice of disorderly competition, both publishing and printing parties feel that there is also a need for certain consensus and limitations in pricing. Only in this way can the market operate in an orderly manner and benefit the development and progress of the industry.

In 1998, the publishing houses in Shanghai, through their own industrial organization, the Shanghai Publishing Management Association and the Shanghai Printing Group Co., Ltd., the industrial organization of the printing enterprises affiliated to the Shanghai Press and Publication Bureau, carried out detailed research and discussion, and formulated the Shanghai Book and Periodical Printing Industry Printing Price List, which was the first price list in the socialist market economy era that had an agreement between publishing and printing parties. Subsequently, several modifications were made. The Shanghai labor price list not only includes new processing projects such as electronic document output and purchase prices for precision decoration auxiliary materials, but also includes improvements in pricing methods, such as providing intuitive and quick to see pricing tables based on volume classification. Some provincial and municipal printing associations and other industry organizations have also followed the practice of Shanghai and introduced a new labor price table in their jurisdiction, regulating the order of the publishing and printing market, and coordinating the interests of both publishing and printing parties. Some provincial and municipal printing associations and other industry organizations have also formulated new labor price lists for their respective jurisdictions, but considering the inevitable difference between the prescribed price level and the actual market price, which has reduced the binding force and effectiveness, they have not blindly introduced them. Due to different affiliations between publishing houses and printing factories in the Beijing region, a unified price list has not yet been formed. Only in a certain microclimate and small range, specific published and printed price lists have been introduced and implemented, and some have also been improved.
