What is Megabus’ profit maximizing price and quantity if they cannot price discriminate? d. What is Megabus’ profit from setting one price for both groups? Does Megabus prefer to price discriminate or not? e. Does price discrimination make students better off, worse off, or have no impact on them? How about non-students?
