Answer 1

Please try this code. Give reference of my javascript comments where you think I have still mis-understood the question.

<script type="text/javascript">
    var leaguedivisionUrl = '@Url.Action("Fetchleaguedivision")';
    var updatePrice = '@Url.Action("updatePrice")';
    var divisions = $('#SelectedLeagueDivision');

    function bindLeagueDivisionData(data) {
        divisions.empty();
        $.each(data, function(index, item) {
            divisions.append($('<option></option>').val(item.Value).text(item.Text));
        });
    }

    function getUpdatedPrice(leagueId, divisionId) {
        $.getJSON(updatePrice, {
            LeagueDivisionId: divisionId,
            LeagueId: leagueId
        }, function(data) {
            if (!data) {
                return;
            }
            alert(data);
            //document.getElementById('#message').innerHTML = data;
        });
    }

    $('#SelectedLeague').change(function() {
        if (divisions.find("option").length == 0) {
            /*The division list is empty, fetch the divisions*/
            $.getJSON(leaguedivisionUrl, {
                ID: $(this).val()
            }, function(data) {
                if (!data) {
                    return;
                }
                /*Once division data is bound, get the price for the league and first selected division. If you choose to leave first division as empty, your wish; just remove the contents of done in that case*/
                $.when(bindLeagueDivisionData(data)).done(function() {
                    getUpdatedPrice($(this).val(), $('#SelectedLeagueDivision'));
                });
            });
        } else {
            /*Divisions are already present just get the price for the combination*/
            getUpdatedPrice($(this).val(), $('#SelectedLeagueDivision'));
        }
    });

    $('#SelectedLeagueDivision').change(function() {
        /*Get the price for the combination*/
        getUpdatedPrice($('#SelectedLeague').val(), $(this).val());
    });
</script>

Answer 2

I have implemented successfully in this way.

@using (Html.BeginForm("PriceCalculatorIndex", "PriceCalculator", FormMethod.Post,
                                      new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
{

    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.SelectedLeague, new { @class = "control-lebel" })
        @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.SelectedLeague, Model.LeagueList, new { @class = "form-control" })
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.SelectedLeague)
    </div>
    <div>
        @Html.LabelFor(m => m.SelectedLeagueDivision, new { @class = "control-lebel" })
        @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.SelectedLeagueDivision, Model.LeagueDivisionList, new { @class = "form-control" })
        @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.SelectedLeagueDivision)
    </div>
    <div>
        <label>
            price :
        </label>
        <span id="spPrice"></span>
    </div>
}
