Question

Gina Fox has started her own company, Foxy Shirts, which manufactures imprinted shirts for special occasions. Since she has just begun this operation, she rents the equipment from a local printing shop when necessary. The cost of using the equipment is $250.

The materials used in one shirt cost $10, and Gina can sell these for $15 each.

(a) If Gina sells 20 shirts, what will her total revenue be? What will her total variable cost be?

(b) How many shirts must Gina sell to break even? What is the total revenue for this?

Explanation / Answer

A.Cp=10*20=200+250(equipment)=450

Sp=15*20=300

Revenue=300-450=-150

B. To break even Cp=SP=450

SP of one shirt=15

No. of shirts sold=450/15=30 shirts

Revenue would be zero
