A sports facility with a budget of $240 faces prices of $6 per basketball and $5 per volleyball. In equilibrium, the sports facility purchases 8 basketballs and 16 volleyballs. Suppose the sports facility can join a sports equipment buyer’s club. For a $60 fee, they can purchase at the lower prices of $3 per basketball and $4 per volleyball.

c ) Should the sports facility join the buyers’ club?
d ) Will the consumer’s optimal (utility-maximizing) combination of basketballs and volleyballs change? Why or why not?
