Ma Bryan sells homemade preserves. The profitrelation for the following estimates at a quantitythat is 10% above breakeven is closest to:Fixed cost = $500,000 per yearCost per 100 units = $200Revenue per 100 units = $25 (a) Profit = 200(11,000) − 250(11,000) − 500,000 (b) Profit = 250(11,000) − 500,000 − 200(11,000) (c) Profit = 250(11,000) − 200(11,000) + 500,000 (d) Profit = 250(10,000) − 200(10,000) − 500,000
