Question

At the local ballpark, the team charges $5 for each ticket and expects to make $1,400 in concessions. The team must pay its players $2,000 and pay all other workers $1,600. Each fan gets a free bat that costs the team $3 per bat. How many tickets must be sold to break even? a. 440 b. 1,100 c. 2,500 d. 275

Answer 1

To break even they must be able to sell 1,100 tickets during the event. 

The immediate cost is set at
$2,000 (player fees) + $1600 (worker fees) = $3,600

Assuming that fans would reach around 200 people that would be:
$3 X 200 =$600 (free bat costing)

Overall cost would be at: $3,600 + $600 = $4,200

To break even the computation will be as follows: 
2,500 tickets X $5 = $12,500 
$12,500 - $4,200 = $8,300 in earning
