Expert Solution
Step 1

Answer -

Given in the question -

Price of extra-large Deluxe pizza = OMR 9.00

Cost of Ingredients to make extra-large Deluxe pizza = OMR 2.00

Payment of each employee = OMR 60

Total No. of employee = 2

Fixed Cost = OMR 120

We need to find -

Average Fixed cost per day when 50 extra-large Deluxe pizza were produced 

Average Fixed cost =  Fixed costs are those costs that must be incurred in fixed quantity regardless of the level of output produced. Average fixed cost is the fixed costs of production divided by the quantity of output produced. 

Step 2

So, by definition -

Fixed cost = 120 + 2* payment of a employee 

Fixed cost =  120 + 2*60

Fixed Cost = OMR 240.............(1)

Average Fixed cost per day For 50 extra-large Deluxe pizza =  Fixed cost / Q

Here Q = 50 

From eqn. "1"

Average Fixed cost per day For 50 extra-large Deluxe pizza = 240 /50

Average Fixed cost per day For 50 extra-large Deluxe pizza = OMR 4.8
