Hopkirk is quite right of course - if you increase your prices even only a very small amount you will see a proportionately greater profit, even taking into account some loss of business- double your prices and the profit is all the greater.

It seems the lottery price hike and rules changes was a major misjudgment on the part of Camelot - they have seen there profits plummet for the first time since their launch in 1994, down almost 6% - http:// www.dai lymail. co.uk/n ews/art icle-14 9115/Lo ttery-t icket-s ales-fa ll.html .
