To produce espressos, a coffee shop has fixed costs of 200 dollars each day and variable costs of one dollar per espresso. The n
umber of espressos that the coffee shop sells on a given day depends linearly on the price of each espresso: If the price is $1.00, then they sell 200 espressos, and if the price is $2.00, then they sell 100 espressos. What is the choice of price that will maximize their profit?

Answer:
The correct answer is $7,500
Explanation:
So, the hiring cost would be:
Hiring quater × hiring cost
= 300 × $20
= $6,000
Firing Cost would be:
Firing cost = 100 × $5
= $500
= 200 × $5
= $1,000
Therefore, the total hiring and firing cost = $6,000 + $500 + $1,000
= $7,500
