The following table presents the valuations that 5 different consumers have for 2 different products. The production costs are $10 per unit of good A and $10 per unit of good B. The firm producing them can choose to price them independently or using a bundling strategy. What is the profit the firm will realize, if it prices optimally? VALUATIONS Product A Product B Consumer 1 5 95 Consumer 2 10 90 Consumer 3 50 50 Consumer 4 80 20 Consumer 5 95 5 ANSWER SHOULD BE 410. I will like if it is right! showing my support. Thank you.
The following table shows the daily demand schedule for round-trip train commutes between Dallas and Los Angeles for travelers: Demand Schedule of Business Travelers Price QD $1,100 310 $810 510 $510 810 $310 1,100 Suppose a train line's marginal cost per seat for the round-trip is $300. For profit-maximization, how much should the train-line charge per round-trip? Show your process using the half-way rule of Marginal Revenue for a monopoly.

A firm faces two types of consumers. Consumer A has an inverse demand of P = 120-10 Q and consumer B has an inverse demand of P = 60-2Q. The firm has a constant marginal cost of $20. Assume the firm does not know which type a given consumer is. She offers to sell the good at a price of 70$ per unit. However, if the customer buys 10 or more units, she will offer a quantity discount and charge only 40$ per unit (including the first 10). Which consumer will use the price discount? Question 7 options: Neither costumer will purchase from this firm at all. Customer A will choose the quantity discount and customer B will not choose the quantity discount. Both consumers will chose the quantity discount. Neither of the two consumers will opt for the quantity discount. Instead, both will purchase at the higher price of 70 and buy less than 10 units each. Customer B will choose the quantity…

UCOM is able to purchase an exclusive right to sell a soccer channel (SC) in its market area. Let's assume that UCOM pays $150,000 a year for the exclusive marketing rights to SC. Since UCOM has already installed cable to all of the homes in its market area, the marginal cost of delivering Soccer Channel to subscribers is zero. The manager of UCOM needs to know what price to charge for the Soccer Channel service to maximize her profit. Before setting price, she hires an economist to estimate demand for the Soccer channel service. The economist discovers that there are two types of subscribers who value soccer. First are the 4,000 die-hard soccer fans who will pay as much as $150 a year for the new soccer channel. Second, the soccer channel will appeal to about 20,000 occasional TV viewers who will pay as much as $20 a year for a subscription to soccer channel. What is the deadweight loss associated with the non-discriminating pricing policy compared to the price discriminating…
Suppose a town only has two petrol stations, United and BP. Each could choose to charge a high price or low price, as shown in the matrix below. ВР BP charges a low price: BP has low profit; United BP charges a high price: BP has no profit; United has high profit United charges a United low price: has low profit ВР United charges a high price: has BP has average profit; United high profit; United has no has average profit profit (a) What is the dominant strategy for the above matrix (i.e., a Nash equilibrium)? Explain briefly (b) If the two petrol stations could collude, what would be the likely strategy? Explain briefly. (c) Briefly explain the principles of the 'kinked' demand curve by using an example such as pricing a product by the two supermarket giants.
