A manufacturer of a certain item can sell all he can produce at the selling price of ₹ 60 each. It cost him ₹ 40 in materials and labour to produce each item and he has overhead expenses of ₹ 3000 per week in order to operate that plant. The number of units he should produce and sell in order to make a profit of at least ₹ 1000 per week is
Let x be total items/week,
Selling Price (SP) will be 60x,
Cost Price (CP) will be [40x+4000 (extra 1000 for profit )]
So,
40x + 4000 = 60x
20x = 4000
x=200.
The number of units he should produce and sell in order to make a profit of at least ₹ 1000 per week is 200
