1. Explain your preferred procedure to calculate the cost of a chiller. How much does chili

cost to make?

My preferred procedure to calculate the cost of chill would be to add the total number of chili

ingredients along with costs, then calculate the number of bowls require to make a profit and sell

the bowls in weighed proportion in this regard, it requires one can of number 10 crushed

tomatoes along with 5 can sof 46-oz tomato juice, one packet od Wendy’s secret seasoning, two

number ten cans or red beans and forty-eight cooked quarter-pound ground beef patties. The total

cost with this regard to make the chili is (56) for ground beef, red beans,4.5$, Wendy’s seasoning

1$, five cans of tomato juice,6.25$ and 2.75$ for crushed tomato cans. The total cost is (62.45$).

Not to mention the serving bowls that cost 0.035$, the lids that cost 0.025$, and the spoons that

cost 0.01$. All this amounts to between 5-8 ounces per serving. In my opinion, I would add the

total cost of making chili, then minus the sales of the chili. I would then divide this figure with

the portions to see the cost per bowl to understand if the company is profitable (Dadić, L.,

Ribarić, & Vlahov, B. (2020).

started; the advantage of having chili is that the beef used to make hamburgers that are well done

is used to make chili. This makes it cost-effective and saves on beef patties. The chili also

contains a secret ingredient made by the assistant manager, which indicates that the recipe is

indeed a secret making it a competitive advantage for the company. The challenges with offering

chili and the Menu are that it takes a longer period of time to make, and the task would be

considered tedious since the 48 quarter-pound beef had to be prepared by one person. Chili only
