Which of the following statements is true? A) MR for the full-fare customers must be higher than the MR from upgrade customers. B) MR for the full-fare customers may be higher or lower than the MR from upgrades. C) MR = MC for the full-fare customers, but the airline is willing to collect any positive amount from the upgrade customers. D) MR must be the same for both full-fare and upgrade customers.
