A manufacturer of microwaves has discovered that male shoppers have little value for microwaves and attribute almost no extra value to an auto- defrost feature. Female shoppers generally value microwaves more than men do and attribute greater value to the auto-defrost feature. There is little additional cost to incorporating an auto-defrost feature. Since men and women cannot be charged different prices for the same product, the manufacturer is considering introducing two different models. The manufacturer has determined that men value a simple microwave at $56 and one with auto-defrost at $74, while women value a simple microwave at $74 and one with auto-defrost at $130. Suppose the manufacturer is considering three pricing strategies:
1. Market a single microwave, with auto-defrost, at $69, to both men and women.
2. Market a single microwave, with auto-defrost, at $121, to only women.
3. Market a simple microwave to men, at $52. Market a microwave, with auto-defrost, to women at $103. For simplicity, assume there is only 1 man and 1 woman and that if the price of a microwave is equal to an individual's willingness to pay, the individual will purchase the microwave.
