Pamela cantu operates a school foodservice department in a small, rural community. She feeds approximately 1,000 students per day in three different locations. She receives an average of $1.20 in revenues per meal. Her budget, set at the beginning of the school year by the superintendent, is developed in such a way that a small amount is to be reserved for future equipment purchases and dining-room renovation. These funds are available, however, only if pamela meets her budget. She hopes to use this year's reserve (profit) to buy a $5,000 refrigerated salad bar for the high school. Because it is the midpoint of her school year, help her determine her "performance to budget" thus far (fill in all blanks).
