Besides what my friends have suggested above, the price of a commodity is also decided many times by keeping in mind at what price the competitor is selling the product in the market - this is irrespective of the cost of the commodity to the company. We have millions of examples around us in these times where price is decided keeping in mind the competition.

What is more important than material charges is how durable the commodity is and how useful it is to the society or world.
Rest fall only later. I mean, think about it, if you are thinking about making a product like say, ribbon, then you have a purpose for making it and you want to make sure how long it will last and whether it can be replaced if lost.

Companies decide their price on basis of their labour and production cost.After coming to the addition of this they add an appropriate profit to it and this is way how they come to a cost of a commodity.

1st step is to bring the costings into the paper along with all the local taxes and duties are applicable to produce. Then add on with the overhead and operational expenses of the company according to the size of the company and its operations based on there output and sales projections. Then compare the market with existing competitors of the same/and/or identical product and finally come to a conclusion of the pricing!

It is the maximum price that you can get from your customer.The costing comes when it is decided how much minimum one should charge the customer.
