Question

Consider the airline problem with 2 classes. The price for Class 1 seats is $200 and the price for Class 2 seats is $100. Suppose that the PDFs for the independent demand random variables are given by $D_1 \sim U[0, 4]$ and $D_2 \sim U[0, 4]$. (a) If there are $N = 5$ seats, determine $N_1$ and $N_2$. (b) Consider a small $\Delta$ above 5 seats (that is, $N = 5 + \Delta$). How much of the $\Delta$ will be allocated to Class 1?

Step 1

We have $p_1 = 200$ and $p_2 = 100$. The demands for Class 1 and Class 2 seats are given by $D_1 \sim U[0, 4]$ and $D_2 \sim U[0, 4]$, respectively. Show more…
