Answer 1

Answer:

I hope this is the correct answer....

Step-by-step explanation:

Plant A

100 minutes to produce 1200 bottles (1200/12)

100 minutes / 60 = 1.67 hours = 2 hours

Cost = (2 hours x $30/hour) + ($0.08/bottle x 1200 bottles)

$60 + $96 = $156

Plant B

171.4 minutes to produce 1200 bottles (1200/7)

171.4 minutes / 60 = 2.86 hours  = 3 hours

Cost = (3 hours x $30/hour) + ($0.05/bottle x 1200 bottles)

$90 + $60 = $150

Plant C

63.2 minutes to produce 1200 bottles (1200/19)

63.2 minutes / 60 = 1.05 hours = 2 hours

Cost = (2 hours x $30/hour) + ($0.11/bottle x 1200 bottles)

$60 + $132 = $192
