Auto Shoppe can charge $75 for the service of reading the codes from a single car engine, while the actual cost of the reading would only be $10 per car engine. Please answer the following two questions, based on this information. Suppose that the manager of Auto Shoppe is concerned about this purchase, and has stated that if Auto Shoppe were to buy the new engine computer code reader, “.the machine needs to pay for itself by the time we use it to read the codes of 200 car engines." The manager says this is because, “...those sorts of engine computer code readers go out of date very quickly, so if we don't get our money back soon, we will probably just wind up replacing the machine before it ever breaks even." What would Auto Shoppe need to charge for the service of reading each car engine, to break-even when it reads the codes from 200 car engines? a. $45 b. $150 Oc. $205 d. $335 Oe. $75arrow_forward
- Do not give answer in imagearrow_forwardDarren Mack owns the "Gas n' Go" convenience store and gas station. After hearing a marketing lecture, he realizes that it might be possible to draw more customers to his high-margin convenience store by selling his gasoline at a lower price. However, the "Gas n' Go' is unable to qualify for volume discounts on its gasoline purchases, and therefore cannot sell gasoline for profit if the price is lowered. Each new pump will cost $95,000 to install, but will increase customer traffic in the store by 14,000 customers per year. Also, because the "Gas n' Go" would be selling its gasoline at no profit Darren plans on increasing the profit margin on convenience store items incrementally over the next five years.
