20-Dollar-Budget for Dinner - Business Studies

In our lesson in Business Studies, we had an activity to do, it's a combination of grocery shopping and budgeting. We had a budget of 20 dollars and we had to buy the ingredients and calculate how much they cost so that it'd fit in our budget. 

I decided to make "Beef Broccoli with Mashed Potatoes" on the side. 

I have looked up the costs and ingredients in Pak N Save's online shopping.  

Requirements for the dinner:

• Healthy
• Nutritious 
• Yummy 
• Under or at least 20 dollars 

Ingredients for Beef Broccoli:

• Salt 
• Pepper
• Soy Sauce
• Beef 
• Broccoli 
• Oil 

Ingredient for Mashed Potatoes: 

• Milk
• Butter 
• Potatoes 

Product	Costs
	$1.95 x 4   = $7.8
	$0.99 x 4  = $3.96
	$0.25 x 10  = $2.5
	$1.94
	$1.89
	Total  $7.8 + $3.96 + $2.5  = $14.26 + $1.94 + $1.89 =$18.09
