Assignment 3: Price Discrimination Memo (Weight: 15%)
Due: Monday 9 am (eastern), Week 8

Overview

Your boss has just given you an important, high priority assignment. The company’s core business
product has shown steadily shrinking profitability and you have been asked to address the problem by
coming up with at least two new pricing techniques. Your boss will meet with you at the end of the month
to hear your proposal. Prior to the meeting, your boss would like to see a brief Memo that outlines your
proposal and explains the impact it will have on units sold and profits.

Instructions

Develop a Memo of two to three pages for your boss. As a Memo is a succinct business communication,
it is helpful to work through your ideas before writing the document. To prepare in this way, make notes,
using the prompts in the Sample Outline provided at the end of these Instructions. When you are ready
to proceed with writing your Memo, use the same Sample Outline to structure the sections of your
Memo document.

Sample Outline

Use the following Outline of sections to organize the body of your Memo. Use the underlined headings as
section headings in your document. Use the prompts in each section to make sure you include the
required content.

No Cover page is needed. Instead, use the following heading at the top of your Memo:

TO: Your Instructor
FROM: Your Name
DATE: Submittal Date
RE: Managerial Economics 515 – Assignment 3 – Price Discrimination Memo
