Questiоn 12 (10% tоtаl) Brett’s Burgers is cоnsidering whаt price to chаrge for their custom, award-winning Wagyu beef burger. (Customers line up outside the restaurant 30 minutes before it opens for it) Brett is aiming for a 14% return on his investment, which included securing the most premium beef, organic artisanal cheeses, and developing their own ketchup recipe. Between machinery, supply-chain, and product development, Brett has invested $500,000 in the product. Brett expects to sell 25,000 burgers next year. Brett’s expected costs for next year are: Beef $5/burger Cheese $2/burger Ketchup $1/burger Labor $2/burger Fixed production costs (machinery and equipment) $200,000 Fixed marketing costs $20,000 What price should Brett charge, based on the above? Brett has tried different price points and found that some potential customers balk at paying $20/burger. If he sets his price at $19.99/burger and demand goes up to 27,000 burgers/year, what return on investment does Brett earn? Is that a good idea?
