The owner of
Brooklyn
Restaurant is disappointed because the restaurant has been averaging
5,000
pizza sales permonth, but the restaurant and wait staff can make and serve
8,000
pizzas per month. The variable cost (for example,ingredients) of each pizza is
$1.35.
Monthly fixed costs (for example, depreciation, property taxes, business license, and manager's salary) are
$8,000
per month. The owner wants cost information about different volumes so that some operating decisions can be made.

2. |
From a cost standpoint, why do companies such as

(Hint: Find the restaurant's current monthly profit and compare it to the restaurant's projected monthly profit at the new sales price and volume.) |
