The selling price per unit will average $2.50; your cost is $1.25. The second category is food, of which he expects to sell 10,000 units with an average unit price of $8.00 and a cost of $5.00. The third category is desserts and wine, of which it also expects to sell 10,000 units, but with an average unit price of $3.50 and a cost of $1.25. The last category is economy lunches and sandwiches, of which it expects to sell a total of 20,000 units with an average price of $9.00 and a per unit cost of $5.00. Its annual fixed costs (i.e., rent, utilities, and entertainment) are equal to $83,500.
