Question 1180739: You decide to make cake mix cookies to sell. Boxed chocolate cake mix is $4; eggs are $4/dozen; oil is $3/pint; and crushed mint hard candies, at $3/lb. You need one boxed mix and one egg per recipe; a pint of oil will make 10 recipes; and a pound of crushed mint hard candies will make 5 recipes. The recipe makes 30 cookies. Bags and twist ties to bag up the cookies each cost $3/100. A store has agreed to buy your cookies at $1.50 for a bag of 6 cookies. You will use your own kitchen and cookware, to pay an extra $25/month for power, and an extra $30/month for water and such to wash up. You plan to make 500 bags of 6 cookies a month, so it will take 100 recipes to do it all. What is the fixed cost per bag of 6 cookies? What is the variable cost of a bag of 6 cookies? What is the total cost of a bag of 6 cookies? What is the net profit of selling 500 bags of cookies at $1.50 each? The cookies sell like crazy, and the buyer is willing to pay you $1.75 for the sixpack of cookies, if you’ll make 1000 sixpacks. What will the profit be?

it is just not Math - - - it is Accounting, instead.
Consider to hire an accountant for such calculations.
Really, think about it . . .
Or find another site/forum for your problem.
