PS$.52$ The Station, a boutique cookie company, needs to create a production process for its new cinnamon malt ball cookies. To help accomplish this,

company has put together some numbers for production costs $($per dozen cookies for the variable costs$).$

The Station estimates demand for the semester will be $790$ dozen cinnamon malt ball cookies. Due to the cookies' expected popularity the selling price

$$4\mathrm{.}40$ per dozen.

Based on the projected demand $($volume$)$ for the semester, which process type should they select?

Pre$-$Bake

Speed Bake

Easy Bake

Under this process type$-$the one selected in the previous question$-$what would be their profits for the semester? $($Display your answer to the neares

number$).$

What would be the break$-$even point $($in unit volume or demand$)$ between the process option you selected above and the "Easy Bake" process option?

$($Display your answer to the nearest whole number$).$

For a unit volume $($or demand level$)$ that is EXACTLY equal to the UNROUNDED break$-$even point $($derived in the previous question$),$ what would be th

cost$?($Display your answer to the nearest whole number$).$

HINT: When using the break$-$even point derived in the previous question, be sure to NOT use it as a rounded number. Instead, be sure to include the

break$-$even point, including any digits after the decimal, in order to get the correct total cost. If necessary, use direct cell referencing to ensure the corr

break$-$even point is used.
