01 · PATTERN

Total cost ($) halved

total = 1000 (from 2000)

Keep every other input at its default and halve the total cost ($). See how per person responds.

  1. 01New Total cost ($): 1000
  2. 02Baseline Per person: 400
  3. 03New Per person: 200
  4. 04Per person decreases by 50% → use this sensitivity to plan for real-world variation.
02 · PATTERN

Total cost ($) doubled

total = 4000 (from 2000)

Keep every other input at its default and double the total cost ($). See how per person responds.

  1. 01New Total cost ($): 4000
  2. 02Baseline Per person: 400
  3. 03New Per person: 800
