Homework Help: Calculus

A certain magical substance that is used to make solid magical spheres costs per cubic foot. The power of a magical sphere depends on its surface area, and a magical sphere can be sold for per square foot of surface area. If you are manufacturing such a sphere, what size should you make them to maximize your profit per sphere?

Thank you very much for your help. =)

If the magic power doesn't count, then make the spheres as physically possible.
