Problema Solution

You inveted 30,000 and darted a buisness writing greeting cards. Supplies cost 2cents per card and you are selling each card for 50 cents

Answer provided by our tutors

the problem statement is incomplete, we assume you want an expression solving for profit:


profile = revenue - cost


let 'P' represent profile and 'n' represent the number of cards sold

P = 0.5n - 0.02n - 30000


to break even, P=0:

0 = 0.5n - 0.02n - 30000

solving for 'n' we have n=62500


62,500 cards must be sold in order to break even
