Question

Llus Patrick is selling a new hair product. He hopes to sell 10 bottles a month if he spends a one-time $100 on advertising. He is selling each bottle for $12. The product costs him $5.00 to make per bottle. What would the planned profit be after one year of sales?

A. $600 B. $740 C. $1050​

Answer 1

B. $740

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given scenario we will be analysing the cost of production versus the revenue earned by Patrick. The difference between the two will give our profit

Total number of bottles produced a year = 10 * 12 = 120 bottles

Cost of production = Advertising + manufacturing cost

Cost of production = 100 + (120 * 5) = $700

Revenue = 120 * 12 = $1,440

Profit = 1,440 - 700 = $740
