A marketing research company showed a sample of 100 male customers a new type of power tool. Each customer was shown the tool and given the chance to use it for several minutes. Each customer was told the tool would cost one of 10 prices, in $10 increments from $60 to $150, and then asked to rate the quality of the tool from 0 (low) to 10 (high). The tool is the same; only the stated price differs.
