Next, the council wants to test whether the two proposed solutions, a no-anchor zone and mooring buoys, meet the Island Tourism Board's requirement:
Seafoam Island's earnings from tourism should be at least $10,000,000 per year.
The council must determine how much Seafoam Island would earn from tourists per year under each solution. So, the council creates a survey that asks tourists whether they would visit Seafoam Island under each solution. For tourists who say they will visit, the survey will ask another question.
Which of the following would be the most helpful question to ask these tourists?

Ask: "If you visit Seafoam Island under this plan, how much would you and your travel party spend on that visit (including transport, lodging, food, activities, and purchases)?"
Why: annual island earnings = (number of visitors per year) × (average spending per visit). This question gives the needed per-visit spending; you can multiply by the projected number of visitors who said they'd come. For higher precision, also consider asking party size and how many visits per year each respondent would make.
