Calculate the protection level for full price tickets
What happens to the protection level if company introduces last
minute tickets at a price of 150 €?
Data shows that usually no-show related to people that have purchased tickets at discounted price is equal to 10% (the ticket
is not refoundable)

Futura Spa question 1
Co = company paid for h.q. program and buffet for a seat
that remains empty. Moreover it lost the opportunity of
selling that place at a discounted price (with related costs).
Co = 40 + 15 + (320 – 25) = 350
Cu = company lost the opportunity to sell a ticket at full
price (not sustaining also related service costs) but gained
the rate of discounted ticket (and paid for its service costs)
Cu =(1000 – 15 – 40) – (320 – 25) = 650

Futura Spa question 2
No-show phenomenon of discounted tickets
(10% of probability that who bought discounted ticket
doesn’t turn-up)
Introduction of last-minute ticket, price = 150 €
Futura Spa question 2
Co = company paid for h.q. program and buffet for a seat
that remains empty. Moreover it lost the opportunity of
selling that place at a discounted price (with related costs)
but sold it at last-minute price.
Co = 40 + 15 + (320 – 25 + 0,15*150) - 150 = 215
Cu = company lost the opportunity to sell a ticket at full
price (without sustain related service costs) but gained the
rate of discounted ticket (and paid for its service costs)
Cu =(1000 – 15 – 40) – (320 – 25 + 0,15*150) = 635

F(Zα)= 0,
Zα = 0,
Full price tickets Protection level:
S 1 = 200 + 0 , 67 * 117 , 2 = 278 , 5
Company has to reserve 279 seats
How many tickets at discounted fare
could company sell?
500 – 279 = 221
Exercise 2 question 1
Co = opportunity cost to sell a discounted ticket
Co = 600
Cu = company lost the opportunity to sell a ticket at full
price (without sustaining related service costs) but gained
the rate of discounted ticket
Cu =(1200 – 0,7*50) – 600 = 565

Exercise 2 question 2
Introduction of last-minute ticket, price = 300 €
Co = opportunity cost to sell a discounted ticket but at the
same time, company sells a last minute ticket
Co = 600 – 300 = 300
Cu = company lost the opportunity to sell a ticket at full
price (without sustaining related service costs) but gained
the rate of discounted ticket
Cu =(1200 – 0,7*50) – 600 = 565

Full price tickets Protection level:
