Find break even point where x=number of motors
Process A:
7x = $160,000 + 5x
2x= 160, 000
x= 80,000
For process A, the vendor is cheaper up to 80,000 motors
Process B:
7x= $190,000 + 4x
3x=190000
x= 63,333 (rounded)
For process B, the vendor is cheaper up to 63,333 motors
The vendor is cheaper up to 80000 motors and 63333 motors for processes A and B respectively.
Based on the information given, the equation to solve the question will be:
Process A:
(7 × x) = 160000 + (5 × x)
7x + 160000 + 5x
Collect like terms
7x - 5x = 160000
2x = 160000
x= 16000/2
x = 80000
Process B:
(7 × x) = 190000 + (4 × x)
7x + 190000 + 4x
Collect like terms
7x - 4x = 190000
3x = 190000
x= 19000/3
x = 63333
Therefore, the vendor is cheaper up to 80000 motors and 63333 motors for process A and B respectively.
