Michael’s Lobster Food Truck has been operating for three years, but he’s yet to make a profit in the competitive food truck industry. Last year, he sold 2,500 items at an average price of $12. It costs him $9 to cover his ingredients for each item, and he also has fixed costs of $8,000 per year to cover for his truck, marketing, insurance, etc. What percentage increase in the number of units sold is required for Michael to break even?
A manufacturing company produces solar panels. The variable costs are $20 per unit and fixed costs are
$10,875. The price demand relationship for this product is P=-0.25Q+ 250, where P is the unit sales
price of the product and Q is the demand of solar panels. Given the following:
• Total cost = Fixed cost + Variable cost
• Revenue = Demand x Price
• Profit = Revenue - Total cost
26. The equation that represent the total cost is:
a. ($10,875+$20) Q
b. $10,875-$20 Q
c. $10,875 × $20 Q
d. $10,875+$20 Q
27. The equation that represent the total revenue is:
a. $0.25Q²+$250Q
b. - $0.25Q²+$250Q
c. - $0.25Q²-$250Q
d. $0.25Q²-$250Q
