23. Suppose that Amore returns to a policy of setting the fill amount at the pre-1976 level. Then the proportion of runs sent to the thrift store will increase - as you previously calculated - but the cost of the macaroni and cheese will be reduced [see Exhibit 2 in the case) . Suppose that the cost of ingredients would be the only cost affected and it would be affected proportionately to the reduction of ingredients used - that is, ingredient cost would decrease by $0.04744 per 12 pies and gross profit would increase by the same amount. What is the expected gross profit from producing a dozen pies? $ [write the number] [computational]
