sidered, one in the center of the city and one on the outskirts. The central city location would involve fixed monthly costs of $6,980 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $30 per car. The outside location would have fixed monthly costs of $4,200 and labor, materials, and transportation costs of $40 per car. Dealer price at either location will be $90 per car.

a2) For 300 cars, the City location yields the greatest profit

b) The sites yield the same profit for a volume of 278 cars.
