The blankets ‘r us company sells hand-made blankets. the company is planning to print a catalog and send them out in a direct mail campaign. the cost of printing the catalog is $10,968.75 for setting up the presses plus $1.75 to print and mail each catalog. each catalog that is mailed out generates $8.50 in revenue. (hint: use goal seek function) a) how many catalogs should be mailed out to break-even? b) how much revenue is generated at the break-even point? c) what is the profit if they mail out 2000 catalogs?

a) 1,625

b) $13,812.50

c) $2,531.25

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The number of catalogs required to break-even is the number for which revenues equal printing costs:

1,625 catalogs are needed to break-even.

b) The revenue generated at the break-even point is given by the revenue per unit multiplied by 1,625 units:

Break-even revenue is $13,812.50.

c) The profit of mailing out 2000 catalogs is determined as the revenue minus total costs at that output:

The profit is $2,531.25.

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
