Assume now that the video rental franchise now has a new package deal in which it offers to rent three movies to customers at a price of $9.00 would Bill be interested? How much consumer surplus would he enjoy now? What is the maximum price that the video rental franchise could charge and still make Bill interested in the package deal?
