The bread over bakery has a daily overhead of $90.It costs $60 to bake each loaf of bread,and the bread,and the bread sells for 1.50 per loaf.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

really? thanks, for $1.50 I think I can buy a few loaves and then swing by the local market and get some butter

OpenStudy (mari0589):

haha I need an equation

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ohh... wait.... an equation. overhead, meaning a fixed or static cost, they have to pay that to remain open ..... soo..... the loaf of bread cost to make $60 and you sell it for $1.50? heehe kinda losing $48.50 aren't you?

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

recheck your material

OpenStudy (mari0589):

I have to write an equation for C cost and and another erquation for R revenue

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

ohh, man, wrong post =)

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

my bad heheh

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

anyhow, the amount you're selling the loaf of bread is $1.50, so the amount you'll be making or that is people will be paying you is $1.50 for each, thus if you sell "x amount" of loaves, you'll be making in revenue 1.5x

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

as far as the cost part, well, we can see that the static cost of $90 is going to be added but the the loaf of bread cannot cost $60 to make 1 alone I mean, heck bread isn't that expensive

OpenStudy (mari0589):

thanks that should help.I was asking for the homework ..lol yeah bread isnt that expensive but they all use big numbers.

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

I'd think $60 stands for a certain of loaves, not 1 unless you meant 60cents or $0.60

OpenStudy (jdoe0001):

certain amount of loaves that is

OpenStudy (mari0589):

that makes sense..well thx gotta go
