Despitethe importance that prices take in organizations, it appears that this element has not received proper attention by many academics and marketerssince it represents, according to estimates, less than 2% of the papers on leading journals in the field. Thus, the aim of this study was to propose andtest a theoretical model showing the impacts of pricing policy on corporate profitability. To this end, 150 companies in the metal-mechanic sectorsituated in the Northeast of Rio Grande do Sul State, Brazil were studied, integrating customer value-based pricing strategies, competition-basedpricing strategies and cost-based pricing strategies with price levels (high and low) and performance with respect to profitability. The results indicatethat the profitability of the surveyed companies is positively affected by value-based pricing strategy and high price levels while it is negativelyaffected by low price levels. Such findings indicate that pricing policies influence the profitability of organizations and therefore, a more strategiclook at the pricing process may constitute one aspect that cannot be overlooked by managers. 2017 artículo científico 0080-2107 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=223450454002 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=2234 Revista de Administração - RAUSP application/pdf Universidade de São Paulo Revista de Administração - RAUSP (Brasil) Num.2 Vol.52
