Klein Research has been hired to survey cable television customers to determine their attitudes toward a restructuring of the basic cable service and the rate schedule. The cable company wants to classify the participants according to whether or not a household has children under 16 and according to whether or not the household subscribes to any premium channels. The basic cost of conducting an interview is S5. Those households with children under 16 are asked a second series of questions that adds an additional cost of $4 to their interview. Households with premium channels are questioned about their viewing habits that adds an additional $3 to the cost of their interviews. The cost stucture is shown in the following table Without premium channels With premium channels
