Answer:
Option (c) is correct.
Explanation:
France:
Production cost per unit:
= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost
= 4,000,000,000 ÷ $3,500,000
= 1142.85714286
Productivity:
= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced
= 1142.85714286 ÷ 4,000,000,000
= 0.0000028571
Germany:
Production cost per unit:
= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost
= 5,500,000,000 ÷ $5,250,000
= 1047.61904762
Productivity:
= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced
= 1047.61904762 ÷ 5,500,000,000
= 0.00000019048
Spain:
Production cost per unit:
= Amount of paint produced ÷ Total input cost
= 4,600,000,000 ÷ $5,250,000
= 876.19047619
Productivity:
= Production cost per unit ÷ Amount of paint produced
= 876.19047619 ÷ 4,600,000,000
= 0.00000019048
France is higher than that of the factory in Spain.
