Answer to Question 1

First, demand for services tends to be more inelastic. Cost increases are often simply passed along to consumers. Second, consumers of services often implicitly bundle prices. For example, the demand for food services at a theme park may be affected by the price of the theme park's hotel and ticket prices. Consequently, the cross-price elasticity of services should be taken into careful consideration. Finally, due to the supply and demand fluctuations inherent in services, price discrimination strategies should also be investigated.

Answer to Question 2

False
