Option #1: Cookies Part II
Refer back to the cost calculations from your Module 4 assignment (the original calculations with the $30 fixed costs). Your cookies are sold in a perfectly competitive market with a market price of $5 per dozen.
Calculate the profit-maximizing quantity of dozens of cookies for your cookies.
Calculate the level of profit earned at that level of production.
Now repeat the previous steps but with the $15 fixed costs calculations.
Compare the results.

Start with the costs calculated with the $30 fixed costs.
