A restaurant is considering adding fresh brook trout to its menu. Customers would have the choice of catching their own trout from a simulated mountain stream or simply asking the waiter to net the trout for them.

Operating the stream would require $$6,875$ in fixed costs per year. Variable costs are estimated to be $$6\mathrm{.}10$ per trout. The firm wants to break even if $500$ trout dinners are sold per year.

What should be the price of the new item? $
