Vincent operates a scenic tour business in Boston. He has one bus which can fit 50 people per tour and each tour lasts 2 hours. His total cost of operating one tour is fixed at $450. Vincent’s cost is not reduced if he runs a tour with a partially full bus. While his cost is the same for all tours, Vincent uses a pricing practice called price discrimination and charges each passenger his/her willingness to pay: adults $18 per trip, children $10 per trip, and senior citizens $12 per trip. At those rates, on a typical day Vincent’s demand is: Passenger Type

Willingness to Pay

Demand per day

Adults

$18

70

Children

$10

25

Senior Citizens

$12

55

Assume that Vincent’s customers are always available for the tour; therefore, he can fill his bus for each tour as long as there is sufficient total demand for the day.
What is Vincent’s cost of serving all passengers demanding a tour on a typical day?
What is Vincent’s profit on a typical day?
One of Vincent’s friends tells him he would be more profitable if he charged a single price of $18. Assuming no changes in consumer demand, what would Vincent’s profit be if he charged every customer $18? (3 points)
