Let's analyze the results of the restaurant's actual revenue and actual costs step-by-step:
1. Find the Actual Revenue:
The actual revenue is given in the table as "Total Sales (Revenue)".
[tex]\[
\text{Actual Revenue} = \$25,178
\][/tex]
2. Find the Actual Costs:
The actual costs are given in the table as "Total Costs".
[tex]\[
\text{Actual Costs} = \$29,184
\][/tex]
3. Calculate the Difference between Actual Revenue and Actual Costs:
To determine the difference, subtract the actual costs from the actual revenue.
[tex]\[
\text{Revenue Difference} = \text{Actual Revenue} - \text{Actual Costs}
\][/tex]
[tex]\[
\text{Revenue Difference} = \$25,178 - \$29,184 = -\$4,006
\][/tex]
4. Interpret the Result:
The result of [tex]\(-\$4,006\)[/tex] indicates that the restaurant's actual costs exceeded the actual revenue by \[tex]$4,006.
Thus, the restaurant had a deficit, with its actual revenue being \$[/tex]4,006 less than its actual costs.
