Answer to Question 1

The one-day pass average cost is 37 . The average cost per day of the two-day pass is 21 . The marginal cost of the second day is 5 . Sea World knows that due to diminishing marginal utility, the value of the first day's visit is high, but the second day is much lower. So in order to entice people to visit for a second day and increase Sea World revenues, the price reflects the decrease in value to individuals.
