Answer:

The correct answer is A.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Special-Purpose Equipment:

Fixed costs= $200,000 per year

Unitary variable cost= $15 per unit

General-Purpose Equipment:

Fixed costs= $50,000 per year

Unitary variable cost= $20 per unit

We need to find the cost function:

Special-Purpose= 200,000 + 15*q

General-Purpose= 50,000 + 20*q

200,000 + 15q = 50,000 + 20q

150,000=5q

30,000 = q

30,000 units is the indifference point. From 30,000 units Special-Purpose is cheaper.
