This is a DP problem on trees and I tried to solve it using the following approach.

Store a DP state DP[current][mode] = min_cost for sub-tree. mode is equal to 0 if the parent of the current node has not bought a family ticket and 1 if it has.

The recurrence is:

if(mode == 0)
DP[current][mode] = min(cost_of_single_ticket + sum of DP[child][0] for all children, cost_of_family_ticket + sum of DP[child][1] for all children)

else

DP[current][mode] = min(sum of DP[child][0] for all children, cost_of_family_ticket + sum of DP[child][1] for all children)

The algorithm seems right but I am getting a wrong answer. Here is my code but it is very long and confusing. If you have already solved the problem could you provide some tricky test cases?
