Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

$\arge\boxed{\large\boxed{\$ 117,788}}$

Explanation:

Assume the cost equation to be:

$Cost(x)=Fixed\text{ }costs+Variable\text{ }costs\\\\Cost(x)=A+Bx$

Where $x$ is the number of units (wooden baseball bats) produced.

The average cost per unit of production level is the total cost divided by the number of units produced:

$Average\text{ }cost(x)=Cost(x)/x\\\\Average\text{ }cost(x)=(A+Bx)/x\\$

You are given that the average cost per unit of a production level of 7,700 bats is $14, then:

$14=(A+7,700B)/7,700$

You are also given that the fixed costs are $22,500, thus A = 22,500. Hence, you can substitute the value of A in the previous equation and find B:

$14=(22,500+7,700B)/7,700\\\\14\times 7,700=22,500+7,700B\\\\107,800-22,500=7,700B\\\\85,300/7,700=B\\\\B=11.08$

Now you can complete the cost equation:

$Cost(x)=\$ 22,500+11.08x$

And to predict the total costs for 8,600 bats you must subsitute x with 8,600 in the previous equation:

$Cost(8,600)=\$ 22,500+11.08(8,600)=\$ 117,788$

Answer:

The correct answer is to put the two variables in the same type of measure.

Explanation:

To begin with, in order to compare to different variables that are in different measures the correct way to proceed is to put them in the same measure so therefore they will be comparable with each other. Once said that, in this case the person should put the psychological benefits in economics benefits as it is the other variable and in order to do that the person should think of what aspects of his productivity would increase if he takes the vacations and gains the psychological benefits. For example, after getting back from the holidays he may feel himself less stress and more relax and therefore that he may be able to either do more job, more studies or more excercises and all that can impact in an economic way.
