Respuesta :

Answer:

$1525000

Explanation:

Given: Selling price of each large bag is $45

            Quantity of large bags= 70000

            Selling price of each small bag is $15

            Quantity of small bags= 25000.

            Total cost to the company is $2000000.

First calculating total revenue generated by the company.

Revenue= [tex]Selling\ price\times quantity[/tex]

⇒ Revenue= [tex]( 70000\times \$45 + 25000\times \$ 15)[/tex]

⇒ Revenue= [tex]\$ 3150000+ \$375000[/tex]

∴ Revenue= $3525000

Now, computing profit for the company.

Profit= [tex]Revenue- cost[/tex]

⇒ Profit= [tex]\$ 3525000- \$ 2000000[/tex]

∴ Profit= [tex]\$ 1525000[/tex]

Hence, $1525000 is the profit for the company.
