The project describes an alternative pro-social pricing model for use in retail sales that uses a financial technology innovation in price tag technology that allows a seller to offer prices in any real or abstract or personalized or subjective unit of measure. Most commonly, the primary use case for the price tag is to use units of "hours of your personalized time" as a mixed price such as "$2.00 + 1.00hr" for the sale of the product. The hourly portion of the price tag is converted by a personalized $/hr rate into dollars such that a person who makes $10/hr would pay a price of "$2.00 + 1.00hrX$10/hr" = "$12" at the register. A person who's time was worth $50/hr would pay a price of "$2.00 + 1.00hrX$50/hr" = "$52" at the register. A person who's time was worth $250/hr would pay "$2.00 + 1.00hrX$250/hr" = "$252". This pricing solution makes a seller profit while reducing financial inequality at the same time in some markets if used by the seller for the purpose of making a profit. The Technology can be extended to show how a seller can make a profit by pricing in other abstract units of measure such as externalized environmental cost converted into hours of personalized time value.
