This is the full question:
Consider this scenario. During the early 2000s, the Midwestern United States experienced a drought, or lack of rainfall. This ruined large amounts of the corn crop. Tortillas, which are made from corn, became more expensive to make. What would tortilla manufacturers have needed to do in order to make the same profit?
Answer:
increase the price of tortillas
Explanation:
To put in simply:
Profit = Total sales - Total expense
Total sales : Quantity sold x Selling price.
From the excerpt, we know that the total expense for the tortillas is increased because of the drought.
Because Profit = Total sales - Total expense
the manufacturer need to increase its total sales in order to get the same amount of profit.
They can either do this by increasing the price of the product or increasing the quantity sold. But since expensive materials is what caused the problem to begin with, it is very hard for the company to increase the quanitty sold. increasing the price of tortillas is a more logical approach
