A dressmaker can sew 400 garments with 100 bolts of fabric and 1,500 hours of labor. Another dressmaker can sew 400 garments wit
faust18 [17]

Answer:

No, because the second method has lower total costs of production.

Explanation:

In a bid to make profits businesses must always compare different processes and choose the cheapest one.

This will eventually reflect in the profitability of the business.

In this instance let's get the cost of each process.

Fabric costs $110 a bolt and labor costs $20 an hour.

The first dress maker can sew 400 garments with 100 bolts of fabric and 1,500 hours of labour

Total cost = (100 bolts * 110) + (1500 * 20)

Total cost = $41,000

For the second dress maker he can sew 400 garments with 150 bolts of fabric and 1,000 hours of identical labour

Total cost = (150 *110) + (1000 * 20)

Total cost = $36,500

As can be seen the second dressmaker has a lower cost of production so he is more efficient than the first dress maker
