Zan Azlett and Angela Zesiger have joined forces to start? A&Z Lettuce? Products, a processor of packaged shredded lettuce for institutional use. Zan has years of food processing? experience, and Angela has extensive commercial food preparation experience. The process will consist of opening crates of lettuce and then? sorting, washing,? slicing, preserving, and finally packaging the prepared lettuce.? Together, with help from? vendors, they think they can adequately estimate? demand, fixed? costs, revenues, and variable cost per bag of lettuce. They think a largely manual process will have monthly fixed costs of $ 36 comma 000 and variable costs of $ 2.00 per bag. A more mechanized process will have fixed costs of $ 72 comma 000 per month with variable costs of $ 1.50 per bag. They expect to sell the shredded lettuce for $ 3.00 per bag. ?e) For monthly sales of 55 comma 000 ?bags, for the option with manual? processing, A&Z Lettuce Products will have a profit of ?$ nothing ?(round your response to the nearest whole number and include a minus sign if the profit is? negative). ?f) For monthly sales of 55 comma 000 ?bags, for the option with mechanized? processing, A&Z Lettuce Products will have a profit of ?$ nothing ?(round your response to the nearest whole number and include a minus sign if the profit is? negative). ?g) The quantity at which Zan and Angela are going to be indifferent between the manual and mechanized process? = nothing bags ?(round your response to the nearest whole? number).
