Evaluating a Negotiation Outcome
A freelance graphic designer and a small startup are negotiating the price for a new company logo. The designer's absolute minimum price to accept the project is $800. The startup's absolute maximum budget for the logo is $1,500. After some discussion, they agree on a final price of $1,400.
Critically evaluate this negotiation outcome. In your response, you must first identify the range of possible agreement prices. Then, assess the final price from the perspective of both the designer and the startup. Conclude by arguing which party captured a greater share of the potential value created by this deal, and justify your reasoning.
