An airline regularly running a flight between Chicago and Zurich has 100 business travelers who are willing to pay $1000 for a ticket and 50 tourist travelers who are willing to pay only $500 for a ticket. There is a $20,000 fixed associated with running the flight, which is fixed regardless of the number of passengers on the plane. a.Suppose the airline must set a single ticket price. What is the optimal ticket price? How much revenue does the airline earn and how much profit does it make?b.Now suppose that the airline can price discriminate by charging different prices to business travelers and to tourists. What are the airline’s revenue and profit now?c.The airline attempts to price discriminate in the following way. It initially sets the ticket price at $1000, so that business travelers will buy tickets immediately. A few days before the flight, it lowers the price to $500, hoping that tourists will buy a ticket. What problem would the airline would run into if it applied this strategy repeatedly?

Management discovers that a supervisor at one of their restaurant locations removes excess cash and resets sales totals throughout the day on the point of sale (POS) system. At closing the supervisor deposits cash equal to the recorded sales on the POS system and keeps the rest. The supervisor forwards the close-of-day POS reports from the POS system along with a copy of the bank deposit slip to the company’s revenue accounting department. The revenue accounting department records the sales and the cash for the location in the general ledger and verifies the deposit slip to the bank statement. Any differences between sales and deposits are recorded in an over/short account and, if necessary, followed up with the location supervisor. The customer food order checks are serially numbered, and it is the supervisor’s responsibility to see that they are accounted for at the end of each day. Customer checks and the transaction journal tapes from the POS system are kept by the supervisor for one week at the location and then destroyed.
