Chapter 13, Problem 2VC
The Magic used its original pricing systems of several years ago and set the price for a Terrace V, Zone 103 seat at $68 per game. There were 230 such seats not purchased as part of season ticket packages and thus available to the public. If the team switched to the 7-price dynamic system (illustrated in Table 13.11), how would the profit-contribution for the 45-game season change? (Note that the 45-game season includes 4 preseason games.)

Cost Allocation; Cost Shifting In the last several years, airlines have succeeded in boosting profits by adding fees for previously free services such as in-flight snacks and meals, checked baggage, priority boarding, and other services. These fees have caused some shifts in customer behavior, as more airline passengers bring their own snacks on the airline and pack a smaller bag that is acceptable for “carry-on”. By using carry-on luggage, the airline customer can save $25 or more in baggage-checking fees. This situation has resulted in a cost shifting for passengers, airlines, and airport security. As the number of checked bag decreases, the cost of baggage handling for the airlines decreases (and revenues increase for those bags that are checked). In contrast, the costs and delays in security checkpoints increase as security personnel must check additional carry-on bags, causing delays for passengers and the need for additional security personnel to handle the increased number of…

- a) For an upcoming red carpet evening, a company is selling tickets at $60 per person at a large theatre which has a capacity of 10,000 people. Each attendant is expected to buy $12 of food and merchandise at the film evening. The cost of providing the food and merchandise is estimated to be $5 per person. All other ancillary services will be provided by the theatre. Initial analysis indicates that the ancillary cost of providing food and merchandise, as well as the staff needed to handle ticket sales, may be described as a semi-variable cost. Data on these costs and tickets sold from three similar events held at the venue have been collected and are tabulated below: Tickets Sold Cost ($) 2100 6640 3824 11284 4650 13525 Use the high-low method to estimate the total cost function relating to these ancillary costs. b) The company will be renting the theatre which will host the upcoming red carpet evening.

After 10 years of production, the chemical manufacturing plant has become very successful. Because of its success, a great demand for products came as many consumers wanted the company to sell them their products. To meet the demand, three alternatives were considered. Work overtime to meet demands. Annual overtime expenses are $500,000. Expand the plant to accommodate more production. Fixed annual expenses are $2,500,000. Make a contract with another company to produce additional products at a rate of $1,000,000. The cost of manufacturing products from the three alternatives are $3500, $3000 and $3250 per unit respectively. The plant sells every unit made regardless of how they were made at $15,000 per unit. The expected demand for the product is 150 units with a probability of 50% 250 units with a probability of 35% 350 units with a probability of 7.5% 400 units with a probability of 5% 500 units with a probability of 2.5%arrow_forward
