As a prospective owner of a club known as the Red Rose, you are interested in determining the volume of sales dollars necessary for the coming year to reach the break-even point. You have decided to break down the sales for the club into four categories, the first category being beer. Your estimate of the beer sales is that 30.000 drinks will be served. The selling price for each unit will average $1.50; the cost is $.75. The second major category is meals, which you expect to be 10,000 units with an average price of $10.00 and a cost of $5.00. The third major category is desserts and wine, of which you also expect to sell 10,000 units, but w1th an average price of $2.50 per unit sold and a cost of $1.00 per unit. The final category is lunches and inexpensive sandwiches, wh1ch you expect to total 20,000 un1ts at an average price of $6.25 with a food cost of $3.25. Your fixed cost (i.e. rent, utilities, and so on) is $1,800 per month plus $2,000 per month for entertainment.

As a potential owner of a club known as Club Salida, you are interested in
determining the necessary volume of sales in dollars to reach the breakeven next
year. You decided to break down the club's sales into. four categories, where beer is
the first. Your estimate of the sale of beer is that it will serve 30,000 servings. The
selling price per unit will average $ 1.50; its cost is $ .75. The second category is
food, of which you expect sell 10,000 units with an average unit price of $ 10.00 and
a cost of $ 5.00. The third category is desserts and wine, of which you also hope to
sell 10,000 units, but with an average unit price of $ 2.50 and a cost of $ 1.00.
The last category is inexpensive lunches and sandwiches, of which you expect sell
a total of 20,000 units with an average price of $ 6.75 and a cost per unit of $ 3.25.
Your fixed costs (i.e. rent, utilities, etc.) are $ 1,800 a month plus $ 2,000 a month
for entertainment.

- Management of the Toys R4U Company needs to decide whether to introduce a certain new novelty toy for the upcoming Christmas season, after which it would be discontinued. The total cost required to produce and market this toy would be $500,000 plus $15 per toy produced. The company would receive revenue of $35 for each toy sold. Assuming that every unit of this toy that is produced is sold, write an expression for the profit in terms of the number produced and sold. Then find the break-even point that this number must exceed to make it worthwhile to introduce this toy. Now assume that the number that can be sold might be less than the number produced. Write an expression for the profit in terms of these two numbers. Formulate a spreadsheet that will give the profit in part b for any values of the two numbers. Write a mathematical expression for the constraint that the number produced should not exceed the number that can be sold.arrow_forwardBarbara Flynn sells papers at a newspaper stand for $0.40.

- Create a spreadsheet to calculate your projected total costs, total revenues, and total profits for giving a seminar on cost estimating. Make the following assumptions: You will charge $600 per person for a two-day class. You estimate that 30 people will attend the class, but you want to change this input. Your fixed costs include $500 total to rent a room for both days, setup fees of $400 for registration, and $300 for designing a postcard for advertising. Youwill not include your labor costs for this estimate, but you estimate that you will spend at least 150 hours developing materials, managing the project, and giving the actual class. You would like to know what your time is worth given different scenarios. Youwill order 5,000 postcards, mail 4,000, and distribute the rest to friends and colleagues.
