Abstract: In the decisions of price fi xing there are quantitative and qualitative factors; out of which the fi rst to stand out is the level of costs. In Venezuela, after validation and application of the Organic Law of Fair Price, it is fi t to refl ect upon the foreseen procedures in the legal norm for the determination of prices in the spotlight of methodology and accounting procedures. It was discovered that in the country, maximum price se# ing was based on the level of costs whilst the levels of producer and importer only had a part of their cost structure recognized; this generates that a margin of benefi t between 20 and 30 percent is not actually obtained as a respective margin of maximum benefi t.
