Question

You have the opportunity to run the helium balloon stand at the Alexander County Fair. Your start-up supplies will cost $60. It will cost $.05 to fill each balloon you sell with helium. You are going to sell each balloon for $1.25. Find your break-even point. How many balloons will you need to sell in order to break- even?​

Answer 1

50

1.25 - .05 = 1.20 made per balloon

60/1.2 = 50 balloons sold to recoup 60$ start up and break even
