Respuesta :

Answer:

The current market price is $11

Explanation:

Profit =Sales -cost

Sales=Price x units  

Cost = cost of production x units

Profit =Price x units  -cost of production x units

We want to know the current market price

Price= (Profit+ cost of production x units )/units

Price= ($240+$5 x 40 )/40

Price= ($240+$200 )/40

Price= $440/40

Price= $440/40= $11
