The Anderson Buffet offers an all-you-can-eat buffet meal for $28 per person. The restaurant employs ten salaried employees. Rent for the building, employee salaries, and other fixed costs for the restaurant are $129,000 per month when the restaurant serves meals up to 13,700 guests in that month. If the restaurant were to serve more than 13,700 guests in any given month, it would need to hire two additional servers and two additional kitchen staff for an additional fixed cost of $17,000 per month. The variable cost of food is $12 per guest. Requirement 1. What is the restaurant's cost equation for estimating costs if the number of guests to be served is up to 13,700 guests per month? y = x + Requirement 2a. If the restaurant were to serve 12,900 guests in May, what would be the estimated total cost (Use the cost equation from Requirement 1.) If the restaurant were to serve 12,900 guests in May, the estimated total cost would be Requirement 2b. If the restaurant were to serve 12,900 guests in May, what would be the average cost per guest? If the restaurant were to serve 12,900 guests in May, the average cost per guest would be Requirement 3a. If the restaurant were to serve 11,800 guests in June, what would be the estimated total cost using the cost equation from Requirement 1? If the restaurant were to serve 11,800 guests in June, the estimated total cost using the cost equation from Requirement 1 would be Requirement 3b. If the restaurant were to serve 11,800 guests in June, what would be the estimated total cost using the average per guest cost from Requirement 2b?
