MegaSports,Inc.produces two high-priced metal baseball bats,the Slugger and the Launcher,that are made from special aluminum and steel alloys.The cost to produce a Slugger bat is $100,and the cost to produce a Launcher bat is $120.We can not assume that MegaSports will sell all the bats it can produce.As the selling price of each bat model - Slugger and Launcher - increases,the quantity demanded for each model goes down.
Assume that the demand,S,for Slugger bats is given by
S = 640 - 4PS
and the demand,L,for Launcher bats is given by L = 450 - 3PL where PS is the price of a Slugger bat and PL is the price of a Launcher bat.The profit contributions are
PS S - 100S for Slugger bats and PL L - 120L for Launcher bats.Develop the total profit contribution function for this problem.
