Answer:

1. Particulars                     Super premium      Premium      Economy

Material cost                            $16                        $12              $10

Indirect cost (40000/10000)  <u>$4 </u>                        <u>$4 </u>              <u>$4</u>

Total cost                                 $20                       $16              $14

Profit (100% of total cost)        <u>$20 </u>                      <u>$16 </u>             <u>$14</u>

Selling price                             <u>$40</u>                       <u>$32 </u>            <u>$28</u>

<u />

2. Yes, the price calculated in part A takes into account what customers are willing to pay. This can be said because the company has the policy of adding 100% to the total cost. This means that the company knows that customers will be willing to pay that much amount.
