The firm has a prior belief about the type of the consumer:
there is a half-half chance the customer is of high-end or
low-end.
For any product designed for the market, the firm needs to
decide on its quality q and its selling price p. A consumer
is willing to choose a product design only if the net utility
gained by the consumer (which is the utility minus the
price) is nonnegative. If multiple options are available in
the market, the consumer will choose the one that yields
the highest (nonnegative) net utility.
