- Disney operates two theme parks in California: Disneyland and California Adventure. Disney has long charged the same price for the two parks, currently $400 per day for a four-person family. However with fewer tourists and more local visitors over the past year, Disney is considering park-specific pricing along with a “weekender” bundle. Disney media have different appeal to boys and girls, which affects demand for theme parks. Disney estimates demand for three family types: Boy (B), Girl (G) and Mixed (M). Each family buys at most one ticket of each type, and there are 1 million families of each type each month. Maximum willingness to pay for each park for each family is shown in the table below. Assume the marginal cost per family per park is $150. Family Type Disneyland (DL) CA Adventure (CA) Bundle G $700 $200 $900 M $300 $300 $600 B $200 $500 $700 Cost = $150 per family per park a. What are the profit-maximizing prices for Disneyland and California Adventure if tickets are…In order to price discriminate, a seller must be able to tell the difference between buyers who are willing to pay a higher price and those who are only willing to pay a lower price.

- A manufacturer of microwaves has discovered that male shoppers have little value for microwaves and attribute almost no extra value to an auto-defrost feature. Female shoppers generally value microwaves more than men do and attribute greater value to the auto-defrost feature. There is little additional cost to incorporating an auto-defrost feature. Since men and women cannot be charged different prices for the same product, the manufacturer is considering introducing two different models. The manufacturer has determined that men value a simple microwave at $63 and one with auto-defrost at $77, while women value a simple microwave at $77 and one with auto-defrost at $140. Suppose the manufacturer is considering three pricing strategies: 1. Market a single microwave, with auto-defrost, at $77, to both men and women. 2. Market a single microwave, with auto-defrost, at $140, to only women. 3. Market a simple microwave to men, at $63.
