To determine which caterer offers the better deal, we need to calculate the total cost for delivering pizzas from both Pizza Villa and Slice of Heaven for 50 employees.
1. Pizza Villa Calculation:
- Delivery Fee: $20
- Cost per Pizza Slice: $3.00
- Number of Employees: 50
Assuming each employee has 1 pizza slice:
- Total number of slices needed: 50 slices
Total cost from Pizza Villa: \[ \text{Total Cost}{\text{Pizza Villa}} = \text{Delivery Fee} + (\text{Cost per Slice} \times \text{Number of Slices}) \] \[ \text{Total Cost}{\text{Pizza Villa}} = 20 + (3.00 \times 50) \] \[ \text{Total Cost}_{\text{Pizza Villa}} = 20 + 150 = 170 \]
2. Slice of Heaven Calculation:
- Delivery Fee: $30
- Cost per Pizza Slice: $2.50
- Number of Employees: 50
Using the same assumption (1 slice per employee):
- Total number of slices needed: 50 slices
Total cost from Slice of Heaven: \[ \text{Total Cost}{\text{Slice of Heaven}} = \text{Delivery Fee} + (\text{Cost per Slice} \times \text{Number of Slices}) \] \[ \text{Total Cost}{\text{Slice of Heaven}} = 30 + (2.50 \times 50) \] \[ \text{Total Cost}_{\text{Slice of Heaven}} = 30 + 125 = 155 \]
Conclusion:
- Total Cost from Pizza Villa: $170
- Total Cost from Slice of Heaven: $155
Slice of Heaven offers the better deal at $155 compared to Pizza Villa's $170.
