Two production methods are being compared. One manual and the other automated. The manual method produces 10 pc per hour and req
uires one worker at $ 15.00 per hour. Fixed cost of the manual method is $ 5,000 per year. The automated method produces 25 pc per hour, has a fixed cost of $ 55,000 per year, and a variable cost of $ 4.50 per hour. Determine the Break – Even Point (BEP) for the two methods; that is, determine the annual production quantity at which the two methods have the same annual cost. Ignore the cost of material used in the two methods

When electric power is transferred over a long distance then, line loss can be reduced by high voltage and low current. Thus, option A is correct.
<h3>What is electric power?</h3>The complete question is attached to the image below.
The electric circuit transfers the electric current then it is called electric power. The loss in the line over a larger distance is reduced by transferring AC instead of DC voltage.
The AC transmitted is of high voltage, and the power is low. The equation for current is given,
P = VI
The increase in the voltage causes the decrease in the current and in turn the resistance also reduces resulting in the loss of the power of the circuit to decrease.
Therefore, the loss is reduced by transferring high voltage and, low current AC.
