Answer:
the company should make 2307 muffins before the Average cost reaches $0.25/muffin
Step-by-step explanation:
the total cost of making the muffins is
Total cost = fixed cost + variable cost = $300 + $0.12 / muffin *Q
where Q = number of muffins
the average cost is
Average cost = Total cost / number of muffins = ($300 + $0.12 *Q) / Q = $300/Q + $0.12 / muffin
then for Average cost= $0.25/muffin
$300/Q + $0.12 / muffin = $0.25/muffin
Q = $300 / ( $0.25/muffin- $0.12 / muffin ) = 2307.69 muffins ≈ 2307 muffins ( we are rounding down since we want to find the number before the cost goes below 0.25)
then the company should make 2307 muffins before the Average cost reaches $0.25/muffin
A, because negative is not rational
Answer:
33.33%
Step-by-step explanation:
We need to calculate the <u>unit selling price and cost of each cosmetics.</u>
If a person bought some cosmetics from wholesale market at the rate of Rs 360 per dozen., then for 1 cosmetics, we will say;
x = 1 cosmetic
since 360 = 12 cosmetic
cross multiply
12x = 360
x = 360/12
x = 30
Hence the unit cost price of the cosmetics will be Rs. 30
Similarly, if he sells it at Rs 80 a pair, then he sold one cosmetic at 80/2 = Rs. 40 (a pair is 2 cosmetics)
Selling price per unit = Rs. 40
Cost price per unit = Rs. 30
percent gain = SP-CP/CP * 100%
percent gain = 40-30/30 * 100
percent gain = 10/30 * 100
percent gain = 100/3
percent gain = 33.33%
Hence the percentage gain is 33.33%
