A small manufacturer that makes clothespins and other household products buys new injection molding equipment for a cost of $500,000. This will allow the manufacturer to make more clothespins in the same amount of time with an estimated increase in sales of %. If the manufacturer currently makes tons of clothespins per year, which sell at per ton, what will be the increase in revenue next year from the new equipment?

$337,500

Explanation:

the questions was missing some numbers. I looked for similar questions and found:

increase in total sales = 75 tons x 25% = 18.75 tons

increase in revenue = 18.75 tons x $18,000 = $337,500

Since the question only asks for the increase in revenue, we do not have to calculate anything else.
