At the 8:10 café, there are equal numbers of two types of customers with the following values. The café owner cannot distinguish between the two types of students because many students without early classes arrive early anyway (that is she cannot price discriminate).

Coffee

If so, what price should be charged for the bundle? (Show calculations)

In Hong Kong, the cost of food is at its listed price, while across the border in mainland China, the price is only half that of Hong Kong's. A recent report indicates a decline in food sales in Hong Kong post-reopening. ** Diagrams need not be to scale; Focus on accurately representing the relevant concepts and relationships rather than the exact proportions. (a) Using a diagram, explain why Hong Kong's food sales might have dropped after the border reopening. Assume that consumers are indifferent between purchasing food in Hong Kong or mainland China, and therefore, their indifference curves have a slope of one like below. Additionally, consider that there are no transport costs and the daily food budget for consumers is identical whether they shop in Hong Kong or mainland China.
