Required information [The following information applies to the questions displayed below.] Hardison Incorporated manufactures glass for office buildings in Florida. As a result of age and wear, a critical machine in the production process has begun to produce quality defects. Hardison is considering replacing the old machine with a new machine, either brand A or brand B. The manufacturer has provided Hardison with the following data on the costs of operation of each machine brand at various levels of output: Required: 2. Use the high-low method to determine the cost equation for each brand of machine and use the results to calculate the costs of operating each machine if Hardison's output is expected to be 25,000 square yards. 3. Using the high-low equations from requirement 2, calculate the costs of operating each machine if Hardison's output is expected to be 40,000 square yards and then for expected output of 60,000 square yards. 4. If Hardison's output is expected to be 40,000 square yards, which machine should it purchase? At 25,000 and at 60,000 square yards? 4. It Harason's output is expectea to be 4U,UUU square yaras, whcn machne snoud it purchase? At ,UU and at 60,000 square yards? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below. 2. Use the high-low method to determine the cost equation for each brand of machine and use the results to calculate the costs of operating each machine if Hardison's output is expected to be 25,000 square yards. (Enter your "Slope coefficient" answers to 2 decimal places.) 3. Using the high-low equations from requirement 2, calculate the costs of operating each machine if Hardison's output is expected to be 40,000 square yards and then for expected output of 60,000 square yards 4. If Hardison's output is expected to be 40,000 square yards, which machine should it purchase? At 25,000 and at 60,000 square yards? Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs below.
