SKF Zoo visitors consist of two different groups, adults and children. The following is a table of requests as follows: PRICE (RM) QUANTITY (ADULTS) QUANTITY (CHILDREN) 5 15 20 6 14 18 7 13 16 8 12 14 9 11 12 10 10 10 11 9 8 12 8 6 13 7 4 14 6 2 The cost of a suit per unit of quantity is RM5. Assuming you are an SKF Zoo owner who wants to maximise profits, you need to indicate the difference for each price, quantity, and profit level, if SKF Zoo charges (a) different prices in each market. (b) the same price in both markets combined.

Moe Green estimates the cost of future projects for a large contracting firm. Mr. Green uses precisely the same techniques to estimate the costs of every potential job, and formulates bids by adding a standard profit markup. For some companies to whom the firm offers its services, no competitors exist, so they are almost certain to get them as clients. For these jobs, Mr. Green finds that his cost estimates are right, on average. For jobs where competitors are also vying for the business, Mr. Green finds that they almost always end up costing more than he estimates. Why does this occur?

A travel agency identifies two customer segments for a cruise ship. The demand curve for customers that are less price-sensitive is D1=1000-2P1. The demand curve for customers that are more price-sensitive is D2=1000-3P2. The cost of maintaining each cabin is $50. If one single price is charged, what is the price to maximize the profit? What is the profit? If the differential prices are charged to each customer segment, what is the price for each customer segment respectively? What is the total profit? What is the profit increase by charging different prices to each customer segment compared with one single price?
Norah Jones’ (famous for the songs “Come Away With Me” and “Don’t Know Why”) last national concert tour sold an average of 2/3 of the tickets available, with 1/3 of seats left empty at a typical concert. (A.) Suppose the local promoter of each concert is a monopolist with a fixed number of seats in each concert hall. The promoter’s cost is independent of the number of people who attend the concert (Norah Jones received a flat payment independent of the number of tickets sold). If the concert charges a single market price, what factors would be considered in determining the profit maximizing price? (B.) Does the failure to sell out a concert suggest that the concert venue set too high a price? Does the failure to sell out a concert imply that there is deadweight loss? Explain. (C.) How (if at all) does the size of Norah Jones’ flat payment influence the profit maximizing price? Explain. (D.) How would your answers change if the concert hall is able to perfectly* price discriminate…

Suppose 4Sisters is a patented vaccine. Her producer is facing a linear demand function for 4Sisters. She manufactures at a constant marginal cost of $20. Reports indicate that she produces 12,000 units of vaccine. She charges a unit price of $400. She is making a positive economic profit of $1,500,000. Draw a well-labelled diagram to indicate the output decision, pricing decision, economic profit, and the resultant deadweight loss in the market for 4Sisters. Indicate key figures with reference to the above given information.
Film producer S costs c=20 to produce one film. B, a movie distributor, earns v=120 if the movie is distributed. In order for B to distribute the movie, it must be purchased from S. If there is no transaction between S and B, each earns a profit of zero. Find the profit of S based on the transaction price formed when B is the price acceptor and S is the price adjuster.
Barney is a game designer but being old fashioned, he restricts his passion to creating board games. His latest game, Rubble Trouble, requires players to overcome various obstacles as they make their way around the board. Barney is concerned that others may copy his game. Based on your reading of the Business Law Textbook. Barney is best advised to protect his game by: Select one: a. Applying for a patent so that he is granted a monopoly over selling his game for 20 years. b. Registering his copyright, as copyright will protect his game for 50 years. Unless he registers his copyright, Barney will not be able to prevent others from copying his game. c. Registering a trademark. The trademark will prevent others from copying the game for 15 years, but trademarks are not renewable. d. Registering an industrial design, so that others will be prevented from creating board games of the same dimension and size.
