Sam sells necklaces for $10 each. Each necklace costs her $5 to make. She also has $5.000 in fixed costs per year for her jewelry business. How many necklaces must she sell in order to make a profit of $1.000 in one year? 200 600 1200 100
Solution
Lets assume she sells x no. of necklaces
So, total cost = 5x + 5000
Total selling price of x necklaces = 10x
Profit = total Selling price - total cost price
1000 = 10x - ( 5x +5000)
1000 = 5x - 5000
5x = 6000
x = 1200 necklaces
