Answer:
Paint is measured in gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
Company fixed cost = $10 million = $10,000,000
Variable cost per pair = $5
Company charges each pair = $15
Hence the company makes $10 profit per pair
regardless the company fixed cost and only considering the variable cost.
Let subtract the variable cost per pair from the
company charging each pair = 15 - 5 = $10
Thus the company now makes $10 per pair, and it has
to sell 1,000,000 pairs of gloves to reach the break-even point. The break-even
point refers to the point where total cost and revenue are equal.
<span>Thus for 1,000,000 pairs, the company total earning =
10 x 1,000,000 = $10,000,000 = $10 million </span>
1.89 / 3 = 0.63 per pound
2.49/ 5 = 0.498 per pound
answer
<span>5lbs for 2.49 is the best buy</span>
