Alisiya [41]

Answer:

$0.79

Explanation:

The Bakery bakes 660 loaves of bread

The cost of baking one bread= $0.46

The total cost of baking all loaves of bread

= $0.46 x 660

=$303.60

The desired mark up is 55% of cost

=55% of $303.60

=55/100 x $303.60

=0.55 x $303.60

= $166.98

Desired revenues = $166.98 +$303.60

=$470.58

The number of sellable breads= 660 - (10% of 660)

=660-66

=594

Desired income is $470.58; sellable output is 594.

price per bread should be
