Part 4· 3 steps

Here is Masemola's budget for Entrepreneur's Day:

  1. Calculate Total Income

    Masemola plans to sell 100 cupcakes at R4 each.

    Total Income=Number of cupcakes×Selling price per cupcake\text{Total Income} = \text{Number of cupcakes} \times \text{Selling price per cupcake} Total Income=100×R4=R400\text{Total Income} = 100 \times \text{R}4 = \text{R}400
  2. Calculate Total Expenses

    Masemola has several costs:

    • Cost of cupcakes: 100 cupcakes×R2/cupcake=R200100 \text{ cupcakes} \times \text{R}2/\text{cupcake} = \text{R}200
    • Transport to bakery: R20
    • Packaging boxes: 15 boxes×R1/box=R1515 \text{ boxes} \times \text{R}1/\text{box} = \text{R}15
    • Trading license: R20
    • Stall rental: R25
    • Advertising leaflets: R30
    Total Expenses=R200+R20+R15+R20+R25+R30\text{Total Expenses} = \text{R}200 + \text{R}20 + \text{R}15 + \text{R}20 + \text{R}25 + \text{R}30 Total Expenses=R310\text{Total Expenses} = \text{R}310
  3. Calculate Net Profit

    The net profit is the total income minus the total expenses.

    Net Profit=Total Income−Total Expenses\text{Net Profit} = \text{Total Income} - \text{Total Expenses} Net Profit=R400−R310=R90\text{Net Profit} = \text{R}400 - \text{R}310 = \text{R}90

    Masemola's Budget Summary:

    • Total Income: R400
    • Total Expenses: R310
    • Net Profit: R90

    The R400 donation from his uncle is initial capital to start the business, not part of the income generated from sales.
