Explanation

Radio frequency identification (RFID) are items which use radio technology to identify itself and its location subject to having appropriate hardware and software.

RFID tags are made of three different components: an RFID chip, which is an integrated circuit (IC), an antenna, and a substrate.

A RFID Reader is a device that uses radio-frequency waves to wirelessly transfer data between itself and a RFID tag/label in order to identify, categorize and track assets. When combined with the right RFID software, a RFID reader can identify objects quicker, more accurately, at a reduced overall cost, and at various points of the object’s lifecycle.

Passive RFID systems use tags with no internal power source and instead are powered by the electromagnetic energy transmitted from an RFID reader. Passive RFID tags are used for applica-tions such as access control, file tracking, race timing, supply chain management, smart labels, and more.

Active RFID systems have three essential parts – a reader or interrogator, antenna, and a tag. Ac-tive RFID tags possess their own power source – an internal battery that enables them to have ex-tremely long read ranges as well as large memory banks.

Explanation

Multi-part pricing. The transaction price is calculated from using two or more metrics rather than just one. The most common economic example of a price structure beyond unit pricing is called a two-part tariff. Basically it can be described such that the “entrance fee” provides the privilege of purchasing the metered component. A common multi-part tariff is the two-part tariff in electricity, under which the customer pays a monthly fee for access and a usage fee for consumption of electricity. With this two-part tariff, the operator is able to charge a price equal to marginal cost for electricity, which is profit maximizing, and deviate from marginal cost pricing in the fee for access.

Freemium is an internet-based pricing strategy where a service is offered for free in the beginning, but the price is charged on the premium package with some additional features. However, freemium pricing strategy is different from the premium pricing strategy because freemium offers free sample which you can use without paying anything, you’ll only be charged when you want additional features.

Demand pricing is also synonymously used for dynamic pricing; it is a relative term used in the online platform. Dynamic pricing means different pricing is charged from the different customers depending upon the urgency, customer’s ability and demand of the customers.

Explanation

A lease is a contractual arrangement calling for the lessee (user) to pay the lessor (owner) for use of an asset. Property, buildings and vehicles are common assets that are leased. Industrial or business equipment is also leased. Since the lessee does not own the asset, it is not responsible for disposing the assets, and therefore, disposal costs are not attributable to the lessee. The lessee usually incurs rentals and operating costs. Finally, a company should treat the lease the same as other contracts, which they must qualify the supplier.
