a small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. the production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as editing) and variable costs (such as printing). the one time fixed costs will total $46,516. the variable costs will be $11.25 per book. the publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores at a price of $25.75 per book. how many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales?

Respuesta :

To solve this determine when C=S where C is cost and S is sales.

Cost = 37720+11.5x where x is the number of books.

Sales = 19.50x.

37720+11.5x=19.5x

37720=8x

4840=x

Answer:

x=52.5

the company will start making a profit after it sells 53 copies.
