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.

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.
