Assume the farm's leading product for restaurant customers is a mixture of organic green salad ingredients prepared and ready to serve. The company sells a large bag to restaurants for $30. It calculates the variable cost per bag at $20 (including $1 for local delivery), and the average total cost per bag is $24.
