i’ll pose the same question to you as to CA:
“When gas prices fluctuate obviously the cost of a burger (to the manufacturer) fluctuates as well since they need to truck the cows, meat etc. Do you think their burger prices fluctuate alongside increases/decreases in gas prices?”
Ill also pose a second question
why do you think McDonalds doesnt charge 1.50 a burger instead of $1. Do you think its because they dont think that 1.50 is a fair price since given the cost of meat, labor etc say it comes out to 50 cents a burger and they only deserve 50 cents profit?
As an aside I’m not sure how much labor factors in to the price per burger at all. For example, you may or may not now this but Dunkin donuts spends more on the cup then they do on the coffee. If the price of a coffee bean would double it would barely (if at all) effect the price of coffee at all since the coffee is so cheap to the provider in the first place.
