Answer:
$18,000
Explanation:
Total revenue - total cost = profit
total cost = variable cost + fixed cost
when 500 units were sold
total revenue - ( $10,000 + $7,500) = $4,000.
revenue = $21,500
to determine profit when 1000 units are sold, we have to determine the price and average variable cost
Price = revenue / total unit sold = $21,500 / 500 = $43
Average variable cost = $7,500 / 500 = $15
For 1000 units sold
revenue = price x units sold = 1000 x $43 = $43,000
total variable cost = $15 x 1000 = $15,000
total cost = $15,000 + $10,000 = $25,000
Profit = $43,000 - $25,000 = $18,000
