Solution

The option that is not an example of price discrimination is: "An ice cream parlor charges a higher price for ice cream than for sherbet."

Price discrimination involves charging different prices to different consumers for the same good or service, not charging different prices for different products. In this case, ice cream and sherbet are different products, so charging different prices for them does not constitute price discrimination.
