Explanation:
Time available for work if Melanie chooses to travel by air = 7 hours
Income per hour = $40
Total income earned if chooses to travel by air = 40 × 7 = $280
Time available for work if Melanie chooses to drive = 4 hours
Total income earned if chooses to drive = 40 × 4 = $160
Price differential = 280 - 160 = $120
As a rational decision maker, Melanie will choose to fly over drive only if her price differential is below $120. She will choose to drive if price differential is above $120.
