Assuming that it costs the restaurant only $0.10 to produce a cheeseburger, $0.15 to produce one order of french fries, and $0.05 to produce a soft drink, what will be their total profits if they price separately using the prices determined above? c. Suppose the restaurant is trying to decide whether or not to offer a value meal, which would include a cheeseburger, french fries, and a soft drink. What price should they charge for this value meal?
