c) Dtee operates a small novelty shop. Each morning she purchases a small quantity of daily computerized horoscopes at a cost of R15.00 per item. She resells them later in the day for R25.00 per horoscope. For the past 200 days, Dtee's demand has been 6 items on 60 days, 7 items on 60 days, 8 items on 40 days, 9 items on 20 days and 10 items on 20 days.
