eBike, an electronic bicycle manufacturer, has identified two customer segments, one is willing to pay a higher price for a customized bicycle and the other one is more price sensitive and is willing to pay for standard bicycles. Demand curve for the customers willing to pay for customized bicycles is d1 = 11,000 - 25p1. Demand curve for the more price sensitive customers is d2 = 11,000 - 45p2. Assume production cost for each bicycle (standard and customized) is c = $160 per unit.
