How to calculate the cost per pack of pedal cars?

To determine the cost per pack of pedal cars, you can use the following formula:

Total Cost Calculation:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = (\text{Production Cost} \times \text{Quantity}) + \text{Shipping Cost} + \text{Taxes} + \text{Packaging Cost} §§

where:

  • § \text{Total Cost} § — the total cost of the pack
  • § \text{Production Cost} § — the cost to produce one pedal car
  • § \text{Quantity} § — the number of pedal cars in a pack
  • § \text{Shipping Cost} § — the cost to ship the pack
  • § \text{Taxes} § — any applicable taxes and fees
  • § \text{Packaging Cost} § — the cost of packaging the pedal cars

Cost per Pack Calculation:

§§ \text{Cost per Pack} = \frac{\text{Total Cost}}{\text{Quantity}} §§

This formula gives you the cost of each pack of pedal cars based on the total expenses incurred.

Example:

  • Production Cost per Pedal Car (§ \text{Production Cost} §): $100
  • Quantity per Pack (§ \text{Quantity} §): 10
  • Shipping Cost (§ \text{Shipping Cost} §): $20
  • Taxes (§ \text{Taxes} §): $5
  • Packaging Cost (§ \text{Packaging Cost} §): $10

Total Cost Calculation:

§§ \text{Total Cost} = (100 \times 10) + 20 + 5 + 10 = 1030 §§

Cost per Pack Calculation:

§§ \text{Cost per Pack} = \frac{1030}{10} = 103 §§
