Bob and Bill are college students. They are trying to decide what to do over the next summer. Bob's father has suggested that they both come and work at his plastics manufacturing company where each will earn $3,600 over the summer. Bill's father, who runs the local farmer's market, suggests that they go to a local resort area and sell fresh fruit and vegetables to tourists. Their markup on the produce would be twenty-five percent, so each $1.00 of revenue would involve a variable cost of $0.80. In addition to purchasing the produce, they would have to rent a location. The cost to rent a small roadside stand for the summer is $2,400.
