Problem 8-4 A company that produces pleasure boats has decided to expand one of its lines. Current facilities are insufficient to handle the increased workload, so the company is considering three alternatives: A (new location), B (subcontract), and C (expand existing facilities). Alternative A would involve substantial fixed costs but relatively low variable costs: fixed costs would be $280,000 per year, and variable costs would be $550 per boat. Subcontracting would involve a cost per boat of $2,620, and expansion would require an annual fixed cost of $61,000 and a variable cost of $1,110 per boat. a. Find the range of output for each alternative that would yield the lowest total cost. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Round your answers to the nearest whole number.) b. Which alternative would yield the lowest total cost for an expected annual volume of 200 boats?

Mass of the ethyl alcohol in grams. m = V * D = (573 mL)(0.789) m = 452.097 = 4.52 x 10^2 g 10. Iron (III) oxide is used as a source material for iron in steel manufacturing. The density of iron (III) oxide is 5.242 g/cm^3. a. If a plant needed to transport 88,915 kg of iron(III) oxide every day for operations, what volume of iron(III) oxide is transported (in Liters)? 10a. 1.696 x 10^2 L b. If a standard, tandem axle dump truck can haul 15 tons of ore and the mine is one day away from the manufacturing site, how many dump trucks are needed each day? c. Each dump truck must drive 285 miles from the source to the manufacturing site. If each truck gets 7.8 miles per gallon of gas and the price of gas is $3.95 per gallon, what is the fuel cost, per day, for the manufacturing plant?

00:01 Now given, companies considering three alternatives, alternative a, alternative b and alternative c.
00:07 Now let x be the number of boats, number of boards produced.
00:14 Now alternative a involves a fixed cost and a variable cost.
00:20 Fixed cost is $280 ,000 plus 550x.
00:26 So this is total cost in case of alternative a.
00:29 In case of alternative b, this is all according to the question.
00:34 2620x, this only involves variable cost.
00:37 And alternative c, we have 61 ,000 plus 1 triple 1 -10 x.
00:45 This all is in dollars.
00:48 Now we compare a and b.
00:51 So we have 280 ,000 plus 550x is equal to 2620x.
00:59 So from here we can solve for x and x comes out to be equal to 135 .265 which is approximately equal to 136...
