A firm in its plans for a new facility is considering two production technologies, A and B. Technology A involves higher variable costs techniques; technology B relies on higher fixed cost production techniques. The unit product price f, average variable cost, and fixed costs for technology A are $.50, $.25, and $100, respectively; for technology B these values are $.50, $.10, and $200, respectively.
Calculate the break-even volume for both technologies, then graph both options on a single graph.
