6. A company sells its products at the rate of 6 per unit. The variable costs are estimated
to run 25% of the total revenue received. If the fixed costs for the product are 4500, find
(i) the total revenue function (ii) the total cost function
(iii) the profit function
(iv) the breakeven point
(d) the number of units the company must sell to cover its fixed cost
Answers
⇒ Total revenue R(x)=p.x=6x where x is the number of unit sold.
⇒ Cost function C(x)=4500+

Given : A company sells its products at the rate of 6 per unit. The variable costs are estimated to run 25% of the total revenue received.
the fixed costs for the product are 4500
To find
(i) the total revenue function
(ii) the total cost function
(iii) the profit function
(iv) the break even point
(v) the number of units the company must sell to cover its fixed cost.
Solution:
A company sells its products at the rate of 6 per unit.
number of units = x
R(x) = 6x revenue function
Fixed cost = 4500
Variable cost = (25/100) R(x) = (25/100)6x = 1.5x
the total cost function = 4500 + 1.5x
the profit function = 6x - (4500 + 1.5x)
= 4.5x - 4500
4.5x - 4500 = 0 for break even
=> x = 1000
the number of units the company must sell to cover its fixed cost. = 1000
