|Ingredient |Bulk Price |Calculation |Unit Price (Price Per Box) |

|180 g White sugar |1000 g = $2.47 |180 ÷ 1000 X 2.47 = 0.4446 |$0.45 (round your answer to the closest tenth) |

|180 g brown sugar |1000 g = $2.19 | | |

|540 g flour |10000 g = $13.97 | | |

|5 g salt |500 g = $0.89 | | |

|5 g baking powder |500 g = $0.89 | | |

TOTAL COST OF INGREDIENTS PER BOX: ___________________

TOTAL PRODUCTION COST PER BOX: _____________

Step 3: once you have determined the cost per box, decide ho much to charge per box. How much should we mark-up or increase to the ingredient price by so that we make a profit on each box? ? What would be reasonable?

Ingredient cost + mark up = Sale price
