Suppose there are three types of consumers who attend concerts at your university’s performing arts center: students, staff, and faculty. each of these groups has a different willingness to pay for tickets; within each group, willingness to pay is identical. there is a fixed cost of $1,000 to put on a concert, but there are essentially no variable costs. for each concert: i. there are 140 students willing to pay $20. (ii) there are 200 staff members willing to pay $35. (iii) there are 100 faculty members willing to pay $50. a) if the performing arts center can charge only one price, what price should it charge? what are profits at this price? b) if the performing arts center can price discriminate and charge two prices, one for students and another for faculty/staff, what are its profits? c) if the performing arts center can perfectly price discriminate and charge students, staff, and faculty three separate prices, what are its profits?

In canada, the reference base period for the cpi is 2002. by 2012, prices had risen by 21.6 percent since the base period. the inflation rate in canada in 2013 was 1.1 percent. calculate the cpi in canada in 2013. hint: use the information that “prices had risen by 21.6 percent since the base period” to find the cpi in 2012. use the inflation rate formula (inflation is the growth rate of the cpi) to find cpi in 2013, knowing the cpi in 2012 and the inflation rate. the cpi in canada in 2013 is round up your answer to the first decimal. 122.9 130.7 119.6 110.5
