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...
