Bubba and Danny are college friends planning a skiing trip to Killington before the new year. They estimated the following for the trip:

Estimated Activity Allocation

Costs Allocation Base Bubba Danny

Food \( 400 Pounds of food eaten 24 26

Skiing 300 Number of lift tickets 2 0

Lodging 280 Number of nights 2 2

\) 980

Requirements

2. Danny does not like the idea of sharing the costs equally because he plans to stay in the room rather than ski. Danny suggests that each type of cost be allocated to each person based on the above-listed allocation bases. Using the activity allocation for each person, calculate the amount that each person would pay based on his own consumption of the activity.
