    C) more than $500.

    Explanation:

    The marginal cost of flying an extra passenger is $500 ( = $100,000 / 200). So the airline should sell tickets to standby passengers if they are willing to pay least at $500 per ticket. The airline should sell tickets As long as the marginal revenue is ≥ than the marginal cost.
