Answer 1

Using the profit concept, it is found that she makes a profit of $4 selling a dozen cookies for six dollars.

What is a profit?

The profit is given by the subtraction of the revenue by the total costs.

In this problem:

• For the dozen cookies, she earned a revenue of 6 dollars.

• In all, the total cost of the 12 cookies was of 0.5 + 0.7 + 0.4 + 0.4 = 2 dollars.

6 - 2 = 4, hence she makes a profit of $4.
