There are four types of consumers that might buy the games with roughly equal numbers of each type, and their willingness to pay (WTP) for each game is detailed in the table below (assume that the willingness-to-pay for a second game of the same type is zero). How should Gamezone price the two games separately to maximise revenue? How should Gamezone price a bundle of both games to maximise revenue? Is there an alternative (involving bundling) that generates more revenue than either single prices or a bundle alone? Under what condition/s is bundling likely to increase profits for a firm?

Caroline argues, “When airlines restrict discounted tickets to people who book well in advance and stay over on a Saturday, it is not price discrimination, because the restrictions have nothing to do with individual buyers' willingness to pay.” However, Frances says, “The airlines' stay-over restrictions are a form of price discrimination, because they roughly split the market into two separate groups that are willing to pay two different amounts.” Economists generally agree with who?arrow_forwardSuppose an investigation reveals that the prices charged for drinks at a tourist resort are significantly higher than the prices charged for the same drinks at hotels in the nearby village.
