Creative Computing sells a tablet computer called the Protab. The $780 sales price of a Protab Package includes the following:

  • One Protab computer.
  • A 6-month limited warranty. This warranty guarantees that Creative will cover any costs that arise due to repairs or replacements associated with defective products for up to six months.
  • A coupon to purchase a Creative Probook e-book reader for $200, a price that represents a 50% discount from the regular Probook price of $400. It is expected that 20% of the discount coupons will be utilized.
  • A coupon to purchase a one-year extended warranty for $50. Customers can buy the extended warranty for $75 at other times if they do not use the $50 coupon. Creative estimates that 40% of customers will purchase an extended warranty
