Essential Question

How can you determine if you make a profit?
Answer:  The amount gained by selling a product with more than its cost price. Before you can dive into determining profit margin, you need to know what it is. Your business’s profit margin measures what percentage of revenue your business keeps after paying for outgoing expenses. You can calculate profit margin to see profitability for a specific time period.

To determine your company’s overall profit margin, you’ll want to use the net profit margin formula. Use the formula below to calculate your business’s overall profit margin:

Profit Margin = (Net Income / Revenue) X 100

1. Determine your business’s net income (Revenue – Expenses)
2. Divide your net income by your revenue (also called net sales)
3. Multiply your total by 100 to get your profit margin percentage.

Jasmine makes cow sock puppets to earn money to donate to the Future Farmers Club. She buys all of the items shown in the table. Each sock makes one puppet. She will sell the cow puppets for $8 each. Will Jasmine make a profit if she sells all of her puppets? Profit is the amount of money left after all the expenses are subtracted from the amount of money received from selling an item or service. Answer: The cost of cow puppets each=$8
Puppet supplies are already given on the table.
There are 3 pieces of felt fabric $6 each=6*3=$18.
Now add all the supplies=18+12+3.69+4.99+9.99+5.33=$54. If she sells all the cow puppets for$8 each=12*8=$96. {already she has 12 puppets which have to sell for$8 each that’s why I multiplied 8 with 12}.
To know the profit how much she gains, you need to subtract expenses from income. By math sentence, we can write as 96-54=$42. She gained a$42 profit.

Example

(A) Find the total expenses.

Think: Find the cost of the 3 pieces of felt.
Felt: _________ pieces × $___________ =$ ___________.
Add the cost of all the puppet supplies she bought.
_________________________ = ____________
Jasmine spent a total of $_________ on her supplies. Answer: Felt fabric=3 pieces×$6=$18 Now add all the supplies=18+12+3.69+4.99+9.99+5.33=$54.
Jasmine spent a total of $54 on her supplies. (B) Amount received from selling puppets. Jasmine has __________ socks, so she can make __________ puppets. She sells the puppets for$8 each.
Think: to find the amount of money she receives, you must multiply.
__________ puppets × $__________ per puppet =$ __________ .
Jasmine receives __________ from selling all the puppets.
Jasmine has 12 socks. so she can make 12 puppets. She sells each puppet for $8. Now we have to find the amount of money she receives, so you multiply 12 puppets ×$8 per puppet=$96. Jasmine receives$96 from selling all the puppets.

(C) Find the Profit.

Subtract the total expenses from the amount received.
$____96_____ –$ ____54_____ = $___42______ So, Jasmine makes a ___42______ of$ ____96_____ .
To know the profit how much she gains, you need to subtract expenses from income. By math sentence, we can write as 96-54=$42. She gained a$42 profit.

Mathematical Processes
What is the least number of puppets Jasmine has to sell and still make a profit? Explain.
Answer: If she sells 8 puppets for $8 each then 8*8=64$
To know the income we need to subtract income – expenses.
Total expenses=$54 Therefore, 64-54=$10
If she sells 8 puppets then she will gain $10 profit. Share and Show Question 1. Diego runs his own lawn mowing business. His expenses for one week are listed in the chart. He charges his customers$45 to mow a lawn. How much profit did Diego make in the week of June 4th?

If Sam and Carla buy just the 2 loom kits and sell only the 6 potholders, how much do they need to charge for each potholder to make a profit? Explain.
The number of loom kits they buy=2
The cost of each loom=$17.94 The total amount they invested on loom kits=2*$17.94=$35.88 We can charge from$7 above. I will explain now how it comes. First, look at the expenses they invested and both decided to sell 6 potholders so, once thought if we charge $5 each then there is no profit, there will be a loss. By math sentence, I can write as 6*$5=$30. Profit=$30-$35.88=-5.88 ( They got in minus, there is a loss if they sell$5 each).
For example, charge $8 each then the earnings will be 6*$8=$48. Now calculate profit=earnings-expenses Profit=$48-$35.88 Profit=$12.12
We need to check and calculate the profit and then we have to sell the product.
