Overpricing: Key to Economic Stability


The growing worldwide economic crisis is mirrored on the day-to-day lifestyle of every individual nowadays. Clearly, everyone is affected everywhere.

Businesses in the Philippines tend to cut workdays/workloads of employees to lessen salary rate, some prefer to cost-cut their budget, while others are opt to do a mass lay off. This is the bitter reality of today. However, small businesses choose to simply overprice products and services to meet their expected standard income. Thus, this is not favorable for the consumers.

Given:

Printing cost per page is P12 for black and P30 for colored in long bond paper.

Problem:
You are to print a two-paged resume with a 2x2 colored picture on the front and 2 other documents in black in legal size. What is the total cost?

Result:
Epistaxis.
