Question

Creative Computing sells a tablet computer called the Protab. The $780 sales price of a Protab Package includes the following:

One Protab computer.

A 6-month limited warranty. This warranty guarantees that Creative will cover any costs that arise due to repairs or replacements associated with defective products for up to six months.

A coupon to purchase a Creative Probook e-book reader for $450, a price that represents a 40% discount from the regular Probook price of $750. It is expected that 20% of the discount coupons will be utilized.

A coupon to purchase a one-year extended warranty for $65. Customers can buy the extended warranty for $110 at other times if they do not use the $65 coupon. Creative estimates that 30% of customers will purchase an extended warranty.

Creative does not sell the Protab without the limited warranty, option to purchase a Probook, and the option to purchase an extended warranty, but estimates that if it did so, a Protab alone would sell for $760.
