Answer:

Plant B

Explanation:

Total Demand = 9000000

Total Cost = Fix Cost + Variable Cost

Location A

Variable Cost = 9000000*0.3 = 2700000

Fix Cost                                      = 4000000

Total Cost                                  = 6700000

Location B

Variable Cost = 9000000*0.34 = 3060000  

Fix Cost                                      =  3600000

Total Cost                                  = 6660000

Plant B is feasible because it will Save $40000
