§ 1943. Prices Offered to Meet Competition Generally.
This article does not prohibit establishment of price schedules, or particular location price variations as provided for in Sections 1944 and 1945, which meet in good faith lawful competitive prices or lawful competitive conditions in the sale of milk or dairy products. “Meeting competition” is a question of fact to be determined under all the facts and circumstances of a particular instance. As a general rule, a distributor shall be deemed to have met in good faith a lawful competitive price or a lawful competitive condition if facts exist which would lead a reasonable and prudent person in the position of such a distributor to believe in good faith that his granting of a particular price (whether or not such price is less than the cost of such distributor as the term “cost” is defined in the Code and these regulations) would in fact meet, but not be lower than a lawful competitive price.
