CIPS Commercial Negotiation Sample Questions (Q288-Q293):

NEW QUESTION # 288
Commercial negotiations on price cover various aspects, including pricing arrangements. A buyer may negotiate a fixed-price agreement. Why is a fixed-price agreement advantageous to the buyer?

A. The buyer will benefit from any savings the supplier makes from efficient cost management of the contract
B. The buyer will not need to monitor the supplier's costs relating to the contract
C. Suppliers always seek price agreements that include cost-sharing incentives
D. Suppliers calculate prices using fixed costs, which the buyer must counteract by pushing for a fixed- price agreement

Answer: B

Explanation:
In fixed-price agreements, cost-overrun risk is transferred to the supplier, giving the buyer price certainty and reducing the need for ongoing cost scrutiny. Monitoring focuses on delivery to specification and timing, not on the supplier's internal cost build-up (unlike cost-plus).
Reference: CIPS L4M5 (2nd ed.), LO 2.2 - Pricing arrangements and risk allocation (fixed-price vs cost-plus).
