We know that:

Profit = Revenue - Cost

Let us say x number of candies are made per week.

Finding Cost per week:

Cost of making 1 bar = 0.15

Cost of making x bars = 0.15x

Fixed rate of making candies per week = 600

Total cost of making x candies per week = 600 + 0.15x

Now let us find Revenue:

Selling price of each bar = 1.50

Selling price of x bars = 1.50x

Now we have to find profit,

Profit = Revenue - Cost

In order to have profit Revenue - Cost >0

So plugging values of revenue and cost to get number of candies,

1.50x-(0.15x+600)>0

1.50x-0.15x-600>0

1.35x-600>0

1.35x>600

x>444.44

Rounding off

x>444

Answer: The company must sell greater than 444 candies in order to make profit.
