When you go to a baseball game your ticket specifies your seat and section of the stadium where the seat is located. Assuming the seats all cost nearly the same to install and maintain, what pricing strategy would you expect the team officials to adopt if a full stadium with a maximum of satisfied customers and at least normal profit is the goal?

A. Price all seats at cost, which includes normal profit. B. Price above cost for seats with the best view and below cost for less desirable seats so the gain from those willing to pay more for the best seats offsets the loss on the cheap seats. C. Price all seats above cost so if there are empty seats, at least total costs can hopefully be covered. D. Price above cost for the seats with the best view and price at cost for the rest even if this means the stadium is not full. At least total cost with normal profit will be achieved.
