A bakery wants to expand its product offerings by adding gluten-free options. They plan to dedicate 20% of their production capacity to gluten-free products. Currently, they produce 10,000 units of baked goods daily, with an average cost of $1 per unit. The cost of producing gluten-free items is estimated to be 50% higher than regular products. Calculate the daily production quantity and cost for both regular and gluten-free items, considering the planned expansion.
First, we need to calculate the daily production quantity for gluten-free items. We know that the bakery wants to dedicate 20% of their production capacity to gluten-free products, so we can multiply the total daily production by 20%.

Gluten-free daily production = 10,000 units * 20%
Gluten-free daily production = 2,000 units

Now we can calculate the daily production quantity for regular items:

Regular daily production = Total daily production - Gluten-free daily production
Regular daily production = 10,000 units - 2,000 units
Regular daily production = 8,000 units

Next, we need to calculate the cost of producing gluten-free items. We know that the cost is estimated to be 50% higher than regular products, which have an average cost of $1 per unit.

Gluten-free item cost = Regular item cost * (1 + 50%)
Gluten-free item cost = $1 * (1 + 0.5)
Gluten-free item cost = $1.50 per unit

Finally, we can calculate the daily production cost for both regular and gluten-free items:

Regular daily production cost = Regular daily production * Regular item cost
Regular daily production cost = 8,000 units * $1/unit
Regular daily production cost = $8,000

Gluten-free daily production cost = Gluten-free daily production * Gluten-free item cost
Gluten-free daily production cost = 2,000 units * $1.50/unit
Gluten-free daily production cost = $3,000

So, after the planned expansion, the bakery will produce 8,000 regular items at a daily cost of $8,000 and 2,000 gluten-free items at a daily cost of $3,000.
