b. if the manufacturer can increase production by 50 cameras per day, what would their daily profit be?

answer choices include-

a 250; $400
b118; $656
c250; $850
d170; $240

c250; $850

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A camera manufacturer spends $2,000 each day for overhead expenses plus $9 per camera for labor and materials.

The cameras sell for $17 each.

Solution :

Let no. of cameras sold per day =x

Since he spend $2000 each day and $9 per camera each day

Cost of  labor and materials of 1 camera = $9

Cost of labor and materials of x cameras = 9x

so, his total cost for one day = 2000+9x

now selling price of each camera is $17

Selling price of x cameras = $17x

Now we are asked How many cameras must the company sell in one day to equal its daily costs?

⇒17x= 2000+9x

⇒2000=8x

⇒

⇒

Thus, 250 cameras must be sold in one day  to equal its daily costs

Now , If the manufacturer can increase production by 50 cameras per day.

So, selling price of 50 cameras = 50*17 =$850

So, $850 would be their daily profit

Hence If the manufacturer can increase production by 50 cameras per day $850 would be their daily profit

Thus Option C is correct .
