Price 价格
Brief Introduction
对外贸易中的商品单价通常由四个部分组成，即计量单位、单位价格、计价货币和价格术语。
国际贸易中使用的价格术语很多，其中以 F.O.B、C.I.F、及C.F.R三种价格术语最为常用。对于这三种价格术语，国际上有多种解释，现将这三种价格术语扼要解释如下：
1.F.O.B 该价格叫装运港船上交货价，简称“船上交货”。F.O.B是 Free On Board的缩写。采用这一价格术语时要在其后注明装运港名称。
2.C.I.F 该价格叫成本加保险费、运费价。C.I.F是Cost Insurance Freight的缩写。采用这种价格术语的时候，应在C.I.F后注明目的港名称。
3.C.F.R该价格叫成本加运费价。采用这种价格术语时，也应在 C.F.R后注明目的港名称。

Conversations
Dialogue 1
A: I’ve come to hear about your offer for bristles.
B: We have the offer ready for you. Let me see ... here it is. 100 cases Houston Bristles, 57 mm, at 10 pounds sterling per kilogram, C.I.F
European Main Ports, for shipment in June 2001. The offer is valid for five days.
A: Why, your price has soared. It’s almost 25% higher than last year’s. It would be impossible for us to push any sales at such a price.
B: I’m a little surprised to hear you say that. You know very well that markets for bristles have gone up a great deal in recent months. The price we offer compares favorably with quotations you can get elsewhere.
-- 我是来听取你们对猪鬃的报盘。
-- 我们已为你准备好了报盘。让我找一找，啊，在这里，100箱57毫 米休斯敦猪鬃，每公斤成本加运费保险费到欧洲主要口岸价10英 镑，2001年6月交货。报盘五天有效。
-- 为什么你方的价格猛涨，几乎比去年高出25%？按这种价格，我方 实在难以销售。
-- 你这样说让我有点惊讶。近月来猪鬃市价涨了很多。我方所报的价格与你从别处能获得的价格相比，是较为便宜的。
A: I’m afraid I can’t agree with you there. I must point out your price is higher than some of the quotations we’ve received from other sources.
B: But you must take the quality into consideration. Everyone in the trade knows that US’s bristles are of superior quality to those from other countries.
A: I agree that yours are of better quality. But there’s competition from synthetic products, too. You can’t very well ignore that. Prices for synthetic bristles haven’t changed much over the years.
B: There’s practically no substitute for bristles for certain uses. That’s why demand for natural bristles keeps rising in spite of cheaper synthetic ones. To be frank with you, if it were not for the long- standing relationship between us, we would hardly be willing to make you a firm offer at this price.
A: Well, we’ll have a lot of difficulties in persuading our clients to buy at this price. But I’ll have to try, I suppose.
