Interesting way of looking at it... places I have been at go about it
the other way: having a broken case markup for each item of 10-20%
instead of discounting the case quantity since its more overhead to
break open a case.

Subject: [MAPICS-L] Selling and pricing in full case quantities
We are trying to get away from selling broken case quantities and would 
like to incent our customers to purchase full case quantities only.
Ideally, we want to offer a price break for orders placed with full case
quantities.  Is anyone else doing this?
Today our stocking unit of measure might be "box". 
These items are also available in a "case" containing 24 boxes. 
We hoped to structure our pricing such that :
-   23 boxes cost, 23 x $5.00, or  $115
-  whereas 1 case (or 24 boxes) will cost $100, and 
-  25 boxes would the cost:
        1 case, at $100
   plus         1 box at $5.00, for a total of $105
Standard 'MAPICS' price book 3A provides quantity price breaks, which is
something different than case pricing.  The case price does not extend
to 
all items exceeding 24 but less than 48 (2 cases).
Ideally, we do not want to set up a separate items and have to track two
separate inventories.  Please let me know if you have done anything with
CASE pricing  or if you have interest in being linked to and Enhancement
Request with InforXA.
Thanks
