That is where things go sideways.When I was at Flag Bureaux, I happened to read the eval on this.
From memory, what happened was, when they announced the prices were going to rise, public borrowed money so they could buy services before the price went up. They also focused on making money more than on taking services. Org Gross Income went up.
When prices were not about to rise, public had no incentive to borrow. They would work on paying down debt, and taking services already paid for. Org GI would go down.
So everybody in management knew that continuing the price rise was unsustainable over the long term, but nobody wanted to be held responsible for crashing THIS WEEK'S GI stats.
Higher priced services should result in a greater income if you look at it in terms of delivery. But things are looked at in terms of GI. A peak in GI then lower GI after results in, OMG, lower GI after. That is without looking at the production value of services delivered.
