A labor-intensive process to manufacture a product has a fixed cost of $338,000 and a variable cost of $143 per unit. An automat

ed process for the same product has a fixed cost of $1,244,000 and a variable cost of $92.50 per unit. How many units must be produced and sold at $197 each for the automated process to be the preferred over the labor-intensive process?

Answer:

no of unit is 17941

Explanation:

given data

fixed cost = $338,000

variable cost = $143 per unit

fixed cost = $1,244,000  

variable cost = $92.50 per unit

solution

we consider here no of unit is = n

so here total cost of labor will be sum of fix and variable cost i.e

total cost of labor = $33800 + $143 n  ..........1

and

total cost of capital intensive  = $1,244,000 + $92.5 n   ..........2

so here in both we prefer cost of capital if cost of capital intensive less than cost of labor

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n  <  $33800 + $143 n

solve we get

n > \frac{906000}{50.5}

n > 17941

and

cost of producing less than selling cost so here

$1,244,000 + $92.5 n < 197 n

solve it we get

n > \frac{1244000}{104.5}  

n > 11904

so in both we get greatest no is 17941

so no of unit is 17941

Answer:

The answer is below

Explanation:

1)

\frac{v-u}{a} =t\\\\Making \ v\ the \ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\First \ cross-multiply:\\\\v-u=at\\\\add\ u\ to \ both\ sides:\\\\v-u+u=at+u\\\\v=u+at

2)

\frac{y-x^2}{x}=3z\\ \\Making\ y\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\First \ cross \ multiply:\\\\y-x^2=3xz\\\\y=3xz+x^2\\\\y=x(x+3z)

3)

x+xy=y\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\x(1+y)=y\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ 1+y\\\\\frac{x(1+y)}{1+y} =\frac{y}{1+y} \\\\x=\frac{y}{1+y}

4)

x+y=xy\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Subtract\ x\ from \ both\ sides:\\\\x+y-x=xy-x\\\\y=xy-x\\\\y=x(y-1)\\\\Divide\ through\ by \ y-1\\\\\frac{y}{y-1} =\frac{x(y-1)}{y-1}\\ \\x=\frac{y}{y-1}

5)

x=y+xy\\\\Making\ x\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Subtract\ xy\ from \ both\ sides:\\\\x-xy=y+xy-xy\\\\x-xy=y\\\\x(1-y)=y\\\\Divide\ through\ by \ 1-y\\\\\frac{x(1-y)}{1-y} =\frac{y}{1-y}\\ \\x=\frac{y}{1-y}

6)

E=\frac{1}{2}mv^2-\frac{1}{2}mu^2\\  \\Making\ u\ the\ subject \ of\ formula:\\\\Multiply \ through\ by \ 2\\\\2E=mv^2-mu^2\\\\mu^2=mv^2-2E\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ m:\\\\u^2=\frac{mv^2-2E}{m}\\ \\Take\ square\ root\ of \ both\ sides:\\\\u=\sqrt{\frac{mv^2-2E}{m}}

7)

\frac{x^2}{a^2}-\frac{y^2}{b^2}=1\\  \\Making\ y\ the\ subject \ of\ formula:\\\\\frac{x^2}{a^2}-1=\frac{y^2}{b^2}\\\\Multiply\ through\ by\ b^2\\\\b^2(\frac{x^2}{a^2} -1)=y^2\\\\Take\ square\ root\ of\ both\ sides:\\\\y=\sqrt{b^2(\frac{x^2}{a^2} -1)}

8)

ay^2=x^3\\\\Make\ y\ the\ subject\ of\ formula:\\\\Divide\ through\ by\ a:\\\\y^2=\frac{x^3}{a}\\ \\Take\ square\ root\ of\ both\ sides:\\\\y=\sqrt{\frac{x^3}{a}} \\
