Profit
If you sell the plants from the big pots for 20p each, how much profit will you make?
Remember that profit = Income – Costs
If you sell the plants from the small pots for 20p each, how much profit will you make?
Remember that profit = Income – Costs

Summary
Profit for Big Pots Income = 30 plants x 20p = £6.00 Costs = £3.30 Profit = £6.00 - £3.30 Profit = £2.70 Profit per plant = £2.70 / 30 Profit per plant = 9p
Profit for Small Pots Income = 36 plants x 20p = £7.20 Costs = £3.60 Profit = £7.20 - £3.60 Profit = £3.60 Profit per plant = £3.60 / 36 Profit per plant = 10p

Discuss…
Were you surprised at the results?
What factors would influence the choice of pot size? (e.g. time, compost needed, etc.)
Is there another solution? (Could you use the tiny pots initially and not propagate?)
What if each seed cost 2p each? Would that change the results?
Have we taken into account that some seeds may fail?
