When Bread and Butter Bakers got the newest batch of flour, they noticed a price increase of $1.00 per pound of flour (double their old price!). Bread and Butter plans to use 10,000 pounds of flour per month at a price of $2.00 per pound with an additional variable expense per loaf of $1.50. Their fixed costs are $13,500 per month and they hope to sell 10,000 loaves of bread at $6.00 per loaf. If they meet their sales goal what is their net profit per mont?

Answer:

If Bread and Butter Bakers meet their sales goal, their net profit per month is $11,500

Explanation:

Bread and Butter plans to use 10,000 pounds of flour per month at a price of $2.00 per pound with an additional variable expense per loaf of $1.50. They hope to sell 10,000 loaves of bread.

Total variable expense = 10,000 x $2.00 + 10,000 x $1.50 = $35,000

Total sales = 10,000 x $6.00 = $60,000

Net profit = Total sales - Total variable expense - fixed costs = $60,000 - $35,000 - $13,500 = $11,500
