Suppose there is a public park. The annual cost of maintenance is $200,000. Visiting the park is free, and it is visited 210,000 times every year. However, to fund better maintenance of the park, the government wants to make visitors pay $4.70 per visit. Implementing a security system (to prevent visitors from sneaking into the park) will cost $0.50 per visit and $260,000 in annual fixed expenditures. At the same time, maintenance costs are expected to rise by 23%, not including security costs. The number of visits to the park is expected to fall by 34%
