Microwave ovens:
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 and attribute greater value to autodefrost feature. There is little additional cost to incorporating an auto-defrost feature.
Since men and women cannot be charged different prices for thesame product, the manufacturer is considering introducing two different models. The manufacturer has dtermined that men value a simple microwave at $70 and one with autodefrost at $80 while women value a simple microwave at $80 and one with autodefrost at $150.
If there is an equal number of men and womwn, what pricing strategy will yield the greates revenue? What if womwn comprise the bulk of microwave shoppers?
