A small publishing company is planning to publish a new book. The production costs will include one-time fixed costs (such as editing) and variable costs (such as printing). The one-time fixed costs will total
$60,239
. The variable costs will be
$10.50
per book. The publisher will sell the finished product to bookstores at a price of
$25.25
per book. How many books must the publisher produce and sell so that the production costs will equal the money from sales?
so the total=60239 so 10.5 per book but -25.25 per book (since this is a negative cost or a gain) so lets say they sell 1 book it cost 10.5 and they gain 25.25 so they gain 14.75 total per book
so 14.75 times x books=60239 divide both sdies by 14.75 x=60239/14.75 then divide 60239 by 14.75 and get x=4084 they will need to sell 4084 books
