2. Consider a fast-food restaurant. The following table shows the maximum price that Alex and Anna will pay for two products: chicken nuggets and fries. Customer c. d. Alex Anna Maximum Price Nuggets $1.50 $2.55 Fries $1.50 $0.45 Bundle Price $3.00 $3.00 Assume that marginal cost of chicken nuggets is $1.00 and marginal cost of fries is $0.50. a. Are Alex and Anna demands negatively or positively correlated? Explain. b. Compare all four possible single-item pricing policies to find the profit-maximizing single-item pricing policy. Solve for profit if the restaurant engages in pure bundling. Assume the restaurant engages in mixed bundling and charges $3 for a bundle, $2.52 for chicken nuggets and $1.50 for fries. Show that the profit obtained under mixed bundling will be higher than under the pure bundling or single-item pricing.
