A 'firm price' and a 'fixed price' are the same thing.

True or false?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The correct answer is to provide services. However, some other secondary factors may come into play. For example, some public sector organisations may be encouraged to boost national prestige eg airports, airlines; or they may be used as job creation schemes.

I’m confused because they sound similar, but I think there’s a distinction. I might go with false, but I’m not completely confident.

I recall a practice question where 'firm price' was used in a bidding context, and 'fixed price' was more about contracts. Could be false?

I’m not entirely sure, but I feel like we discussed this in class. I think they might be different in terms of contract terms.

I think I remember that a 'firm price' might have some flexibility, while a 'fixed price' is more rigid. So, I’m leaning towards false.

I'm confident that 'firm price' and 'fixed price' refer to the same concept, so I'm going to mark True on this one. Seems like a pretty easy question.

Wait, I think there might be a subtle difference between 'firm price' and 'fixed price' that I'm forgetting. Better double-check my notes before selecting an answer.

Okay, I've seen these terms used interchangeably in my readings, so I'm going to go with True. Seems like a straightforward question.

The answer is clearly False. Firm price and fixed price? That's like asking if a 'Bazinga' and a 'Bazoodle' are the same thing. *scoffs*

False, definitely false. Firm price and fixed price have distinct meanings in contract law and procurement. This is a trick question!
