From the cars parked in the lot he will earn (40)($10)=$400, but he will need to pay $50 for the rent. Thus his total $ earned will be $400-$50=$350.

Answer:

$350

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

  • Ron charges $10 per car.
  • He pays $50 per day for the whole lot.
  • He parks 40 cars per day.

The total cost for the whole lot per day is fixed $50, which is his expense. The total income he receives for the cars is: $10(40) = $400. So, the difference between the total expenses and the total income is:

$400 - $50 = $350

Therefore, Ron has a net profit of $350 after expenses.
