Problem - Revenues, Costs, and Profits - In early 2013, Jennifer (Jen) Liu and Larry Mestas founded Jen and Larry's Frozen Yogurt Company, which was based on the idea of applying the microbrew or microbatch strategy to the production and sale of frozen yogurt. They began producing small quantities of unique flavors and blends in limited editions. Revenues were $600,000 in 2019 and were estimated at $1.2 million in 2020. Because Jen and Larry were selling premium frozen yogurt containing premium ingredients, each small cup of yogurt sold for $3, and the cost of producing the frozen yogurt averaged $1.50 per cup. Other expenses, including taxes, averaged an additional $1 per cup of frozen yogurt in 2019 and were estimated at $1.20 per cup in 2020.
