They must decide how many flights per day to offer on this route, recognizing that the more flights they offer, the lower the price they will receive per passenger.

As a result Real wages W/P will remain unchanged Real wages W/P will increase in Los Angeles Real wages W/P will decrease in Los Angeles It is not possible to say whether real wages will increase or decrease, it depends on how many workers move to Los Angeles None of the above/below QUESTION Say that firms pay a...
On Sundays people in Los Angeles consider taking a boat to Catalina Island to spend the day on the beach there. The utility that a person gets from visiting Catalina is 1 − [n/120] − p, where n is the number of visitors on the island and p is the price of round-trip transportation (by boat). (Note that a visitor obtains more satisfaction if there are fewer other visitors on the island.) The utility of staying home is zero. Part...

Flights American Airlines Flight 201 from New York's JFK airport to LAX airport in Los Angeles uses a Boeing 767-200 with 168 seats available for passengers. Because some people with reservations don't show up, American can overbook by accepting more than 168 reservations. If the flight is not overbooked, the airline will lose revenue due to empty seats, but if too many seats are sold and some passengers are denied seats, the airline loses money from the compensation that must...
