Third degree price discrimination is when consumers are charged different prices for the same good due to certain factors. E.g. age, gender, location.

Second degree price discrimination is when consumers who buy in bulk are given discounts.

First price discrimination is when consumers are charged different prices according to their willingness to pay. Example of first price discrimination is initially charging high prices and then reducing the price over time to sell to the more price-sensitive consumers.

April runs a small shop where she provides a service. She is able to process an average of 11 customers per hour. An average of

professor190 [17]

Answer:

5. Po= 0.36

6. Pn = 0.04

7. 0.16

8. 1.11

9. 1.75

10. 9.9

Explanation:

5. Computation for the probability that April will not be working with a customer

Using this formula

Po=1-(Average number of arrival per hour/Average number of customer served per hour)

Let plug in the formula

Po= 1-(7/11 )

Po=1-0.64

Po= 0.36

Therefore the probability that April will not be working with a customer will be 0.36

6. Calculation for the probability of 5 customers in the system

Using this formula

Pn= (Average number of arrival per hour/Average number of customer served per hour)* Po

Let plug in the formula

Pn= (7/11)^5* 0.36

Pn=0.104358*0.36

Pn=0.037

Pn = 0.04 (Approximately)

Therefore the probability of 5 customers in the system will be 0.04

7. Calculation for the average time a customer spends waiting in line

Time spend Waiting in line=7^2/11(11 – 7) /7

Time spend Waiting in line=(49/44)/7

Time spend Waiting in line = 1.11/7

Time spend Waiting in line= 0.16

Therefore the average time a customer spends waiting in line will be 0.16

8. Calculation for the average number of customers waiting in line

Customers waiting in line = 7^2/11(11 – 7)

Customers waiting in line=49/44

Customers waiting in line= 1.11

Therefore the average number of customers waiting in line will be 1.11

9. Calculation for the average number of customers in the system

Average customers in the system= 1.11 +(7/11)

Average customers in the system= 1.11 +0.64

Average customers in the system = 1.75

Therefore the average number of customers in the system will be 1.75

10. Calculation for the arrival rate in order for April to stay that busy

Arrival rate = 0.9 * 11

Arrival rate = 9.9

Therefore the arrival rate in order for April to stay that busy will be 9.9
