Question

Carter and Isabella run a carwash business. They split the revenue 50/50. They are deciding on if they should join forces with Carla's carwash. If they join with Carla, the combined carwash will make $2400 more per month, but they'll have to split revenue equally (33.3/33.3/33.3). On an average month, Carter and Isabella's carwash makes $6000. How much more or less would Carter or Isabella individually make if they merged with Carla's carwash?

Answer 1

we can see that when they join with Carla, Carter and Isabella will get $200 less (individually).

How much more or less would Carter or Isabella individually make if they merged with Carla's carwash?

When Carter and Isabella work together, they have a revenue of $6000, which is split in 50/50, so each one gets:

$6000/2 = $3000

Carter wins $3000 and Isabella wins $3000.

If they join with Carla, the revenue increases by $2400, so now the total revenue is:

$6000 + $2400 = $8400

And now they split it between 3, so each one gets:

$8400/3 = $2800

The difference of Carter's (Or Isabella's) part is:

$3000 - $2800 = $200

Then we can see that when they join with Carla, Carter and Isabella will get $200 less (individually).
