Answer:

143 bottles

Explanation:

For Jennifer to make profits, she must make sales past the break-even point.

Break-even point is calculated by the formula

Break-even point = fixed costs/contribution margin per unit

In this case

Fixed  costs =$500

Contribution margin per unit = selling price- variable costs

=$7 -($3 + $0.50) = $7 -$3.50

=$3.50

Break-even point = $500/$3.50

=142.85

=143 bottles
