define merchandising?

Answer 1

Merchandising is a marketing practice in which the brand or image from one product or service is used to sell another. It is most prominently seen in connection with films, usually those in current release and with television shows oriented towards children.
Trademarked brand names, logos, or character images are licensed to manufacturers of products such as toys or clothing, who then make items in or emblazoned with the image of the license, hoping they'll sell better than the same item with no such image.

Answer 4

The hard cold facts are that the store pays for merchandise and whether it breaks, spoils, or is stolen there is no profit and those loses must be absorbed by the products that are sold. Each store keeps records of shrinkage, that is the loss of a product that is not sold for a profit. The amount of shrinkage dictates the sales price so the store will not lose money.
