- 6A small company produces organic cookies. When the price is $9.00 per dozen, the average daily sales has been 84 dozen cookies. When the price was decreased to $6.00 per dozen, the average daily sales increased to 110 dozen cookies. Assume that daily cookie sales is linearly related to price per dozen. Each dozen cookies has a variable cost of 70 cents to make, plus additional daily fixed costs of $55.00A breeder tells you he has determined for each 1-lb increase in weaning weight profit increases by $1.40 per pound.
