After my camera got knocked over on its tripod (it was not very high off the ground)
, the tripod mount (on the bottom of the camera, i have a Nikon L110) broke, i took it to the shop, but they were un-able to fix it, when i went to pick it up, the told me that there was a lens error, and when the camera would turn on the lens would not come out, but on the screen there would be error screen that says "Lens error. (if the cap is attached turn the camera off, remove the lens cap, and turn the camera on)" The problem is, the lens cap is no longer on. Please help me, It's very frustrating! What could be the problem?

Added (1). I understand that if i got it repaired it would cost more money then its worth, i'm just wondering if there could be an "easy solution" and i was overlooking something. It's not like i can go out and but a brand new amazing camera now.

A lens error like this, especially an impact, usually means something inside the lens mechanism is damaged - probably beyond repair.

Sorry but I would say the camera is done. These bridge cameras are sealed and can't be opened or repaired.

Time for a new camera.

Yup!

I think this camera is toast.

Take advantage of the situation to upgrade to a camera with newer features and higher quality. Usually when you have had a camera for a while, you skill level improves and you need a camera with more features. It depends on what you are doing with your photography skills.

If there are pictures in the camera, you can probably recover them. Most memory cards are less delicate that the cameras.

If the camera wasn't able to be fixed which means that maybe, just maybe you Should Start look for a Brand New Camera instead of Scratching Your Head On What To Do With The Broken Camera.

IF you insist on having the camera repaired, you will spend more than the worth of a new camera.
