Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Odd pricing is the practice of charging prices that aren't round numbers, especially prices ending in 9 or 5 rather than 0. One important reason for odd pricing is to give buyers the illusion that they are paying significantly less: 99.99 seems a lot less than 100 to some people.
