Hardison Incorporated manufactures glass for office bulldings 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, elther brand $A$ or brand $B.$ The manufacturer has provided Hardison with the following data on the costs of

operation of each machine brand at varlous levels of output:

Requlred:

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.

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.

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?
