Solution: We raise the price by X yuan.
Profit = pure profit × sales volume
So the equation y = (40+x) (400-20x) =16000+320x-20x? =-20(x-8)? + 14720
When x=8, the minimum value of the equation is 14720.
Therefore, the sales price should be increased in 8 yuan. At this time, the price of each piece is 108 yuan. Maximum profit for half a month 14720 yuan.
