Answer 2

Answer:

D. 25,000

Explanation:

Initially, with an investment of $8,000, the business was able to produce 10,000 units of products.

Changes were made and productivity increased by 25%.

25% of 10,000 = 25/100 x 10,000 = 2,500 units

Which means with an investment of $8,000, 12,500 units of products can now be produced.

Now, the business doubled its investment. This means that the units of products produced will also doubled:

12,500 x 2 = 25,000 units.

Hence, the correct option is D.
