Use the following scenario to answer questions $8$ thru $10$

TJ$\text{'}$s Taco Shoppe is printing new menus. TJ is wants to evaluate the difference in menu price between food cost percent pricing and contribution margin pricing.

The most popular selling entr$$e on the menu has a food cost of $$2\mathrm{.}85.$ TJ$\text{'}$s monthly cGot of doing business is $$15,650\mathrm{.}00.$ TJ earns a monthly profit of $3,275\mathrm{.}00.$ TJ serves an average of $1500$ customers per month.

$8.$ How much does each customer need to contribute monthly to cover the cost of doing business and the profit?

$15,650\mathrm{.}00+3,275\mathrm{.}00=$$$18925$

Using the answer from question $8,$ what should the menu price be for the most popular selling entr$$e at TJ$?$

$18925$ divided by $1500=12\mathrm{.}62$

What is the equivalent food cost percent for the menu price in question $9?$
