Joe has moved to a small town with only one golf course. His demand curve is P = 120 – 2Q where Q is the number of rounds of golf he plays per year. The manager of the golf course offers Joe a special deal, where Joe pays an annual membership fee and can play as many rounds of golf as he wants to at $20 per round. The golf course’s Marginal Cost is $20. - If the golf course wishes to implement a two-part pricing model, what membership fee will maximize revenue for the golf course? Please show your calculations. - How many rounds of golf will Joe play per year (calculate the value of Q*)? Please explain. - Would someone who just occasionally plays golf (perhaps 1 or 2 rounds once every 2 months) prefer two-part pricing as given above, or would they prefer to pay a price of $100 per round without any membership fee? Please explain.
